It's been about 2 weeks post appointment and I still smell his shampoo which is a faint pleasant scent and really impressive since he's usually the lord of stinkiness. They also sent me home with a blanket, toy, and treat for him. The groomer was so sweet and very knowledgeable and caring. I won't take my cat anywhere else from now on.

This is the 2nd time Sasha has been groomed by Sylvia, and every time she returns home, she's in such a good mood the rest of the day. She turns from an 18 year old Yorkie, to a 2-year old puppy. She had the "zoomies" the rest of the day and slept like a baby that night. Sylvia not only groomed her, she took a few pictures around a Christmas tree and gave Sasha a little Christmas bandana to wear for the picture and take home with her. She also prepared a little doggie treat bag to take home with her, and they were a great "extra" in my eyes and I am sure it will appease other owners with pets who visit her shop. Trust me when I say, Sylvia takes her time and gives your pet the utmost attention when they come in. Do yourself and your pet a favor by patronizing and visiting Sylvia, she loves pets and it shows in her work and wonderful attitude and caring demeanor. Thank you Sylvia, you are a credit to your profession. And before I forget, you will be Sashas friend for life. Mike B

They continually claimed that they could not trim our girl Suki's nails because she was too aggressive. Instead, we had to wait until she was having procedures done at Banfield, their pet hospital, and they would cut her nails while she was under anesthesia. We took Suki and her brother Sasha to Diana and she did them both with no problem. She handled Suki easily with either my or my husband's assistance in getting her out of the carrier, and she even commented, "this is the difficult one??" We've been back many times now and each time we're in and out in minutes. Very reasonable cost too. I don't know about any of her other services (I wish she did dry hair cuts) but for regular nail trimmings, we now go every 5 weeks or so to prevent them from scratching our new hardwood floors and furniture, and we couldn't be happier.

On November 2, I brought my 10-pound mini poodle, Phoenix, to a grooming appointment at Wheeling…read moreDog Spa (737 W. Dundee Rd, Wheeling IL 60090). I was excited to try a new facility, but unfortunately, the experience resulted in a distressing incident that has had lasting effects on both Phoenix and my family. When I arrived, I noticed another dog was still being groomed, which surprised me since I had understood the spa operated on a one-dog-at-a-time policy. (On their website, it states, "We follow the principle of grooming one pet at a time to minimize the stress dogs experience from a long wait time in crates.") The owner, Jane, provided me with paperwork to complete. During this time, I observed that she stepped away from the dog she was grooming, and I did not see another staff member present, which made me uneasy. After completing the paperwork, I returned to my car and saw Phoenix standing near the front door behind a small gate. Seeing him there alone concerned me, as it appeared that anyone passing by could potentially enter the store and access him. Wanting to ensure his safety, I remained in my car to keep an eye on him. Some time later, another customer arrived to pick up her dog. I saw her interacting with Phoenix through the door, and then, to my shock, the door opened, and Phoenix got out. We immediately ran after him, but given the location near Dundee Road, where traffic moves at high speeds, I was extremely fearful for his safety. After about 20 minutes of searching, I received a notification that Phoenix's microchip had been scanned--he had been taken by a good Samaritan to the Veterinary Emergency Group (VEG) in Buffalo Grove after being hit by a pickup truck. When I arrived at the hospital, I was devastated. The veterinarians were uncertain whether Phoenix would survive. He suffered a traumatic brain injury, pneumothorax (collapsed lung), and miosis with scleral hemorrhage (eye trauma). My husband and I stayed with him overnight, hoping and praying for his recovery. Now, more than four months later, Phoenix is not the same. He has become significantly more timid, shakes in the car (something he never did before), and exhibits anxiety in new places. Despite extensive training before the accident, his responsiveness has changed. This event has had a lasting emotional and physical impact on both Phoenix and our family. I personally believe this situation could have been prevented with additional precautions. If the spa has a policy of grooming one dog at a time, it would have been helpful for that policy to be clearly followed. The small gate at the entrance did not appear to be a sufficient barrier to prevent a small dog from escaping. Additionally, I believe steps such as ensuring dogs are kept further from the front entrance or keeping the door locked when pets are inside could improve safety. This experience has deeply affected me. My husband and I had to take time off work to care for Phoenix, and I had to rearrange multiple work commitments. More than anything, I now struggle with trusting anyone to care for my dog. While I am incredibly grateful that Phoenix survived, this incident has had lasting emotional effects on our family, and I sincerely hope that safety measures will be reviewed to prevent similar occurrences in the future.
