    So Fresh and So Clean
    Andy F.

    I can't say enough good things about this place! When I initially moved to LB I spent a whole year trying out different groomers in the area (total of 3) and unfortunately none of them met my dog's needs. It wasn't until I found A Pups Dream Dog Grooming that I knew we had found the right place! Janet and Sivan have been so caring and professional throughout our whole experience, I wouldn't want to take my dog anywhere else. I think what sets this place apart from other groomers is that they take their time and put in a lot of effort with the dogs one at a time. Being Queer friendly is an added bonus!

    I gave them 5 stars They always give my fur grandson the best care. I highly recommend this place. Janet and Sivan are Very nice.

    Took our Husky to get groomed and they were extremely patient and worked really well with her ! She was bathed, dried, trimmed, and got her ears cleaned! Shes normally very stubborn and doesnt like her feet being touched but they worked with her to get her used to some of the tools. Definitely felt really comfortable and very happy and pleased with how she came out!

    Thank you Sivan for such a wonderful job grooming me. You took your time and I appreciate that. Love Teddy

    Thank you very much for such a wonderful job grooming Teddy. You took your time and getting to know him for the first time means a lot. We wish your pet well. We'll see you again. Love Teddy

    Looooooved this place she is so professional and was so great with our 12 week puppy. Both of my kids and I can't get over how good he looks and smells. Only took about an hour, will definitely be going back and recommending to all my family and friends!! Thank you for leaving our little Luca looking adorable

    Love this place! It was my dogs first haircut and I was so worried that it would be cut too short but they did a amazing job! I also loved how they are in together with another pet shop. The other spot had cute designer items! Overall, they are very friendly and love our pets! 5/5 recommend.

    Each time my golden girl has been groomed here it turns out so lovely. The owners are so kind and helpful and I feel so comfortable leaving my girl with them. I am so grateful to have found this place; we'll be coming back again and again. I am also grateful for such good service at a fair price. Thank you for taking such good care of my girl and making her look so fresh and pretty :)

    Our Goldendoodle, Ben, loves coming here. They are wonderful at taking care of him and making him look great. We wouldn't trust him with anyone else.

    Location & Communication: I needed a groomer that was close to a specific location in Long Beach and A Pups Dream Dog Grooming came up while I was searching. Sivan was great at communicating the time, costs and what was needed prior to the appointment. The groomer, Sivan has a room in the back of a place called "B*tches and Bubbles" (I censored the name just in case lol). When I walked in, the place was nice and clean! A really nice place to wash your dog if you dont have the means in your own home. Haircut/Bath of my dog: What I really appreciated was the questions that she asked about what I preferred. My senior pup has hair that is sort of wonky when it grows out long and Sivan did such a great job at keeping it long but still short. The cut truly complimented his face shape. He looked and smelt sooo good too! Conclusion: I've been to lots of groomers and I'm always weary because my fur-kid is my baby (and he is old so dont want to stress him out. lol). However Sivan was so great from start to finish and really took care of my sweet boy. She was not only attentive to my needs as an owner but my dog smelt so good, he was super happy when and he also looked great! I also have to add that the cost to give my boy a great grooming experience was reasonable and worth it! I highly recommend this business!

    Coiffed!!

    I have the shyest dog who hides when encountering new people. However, Sivan has been able to coax her out of her shell and they have built a real bond. Sivan grooms my pup to perfection and I highly recommend her services. I really appreciate the appointment system she uses with it's reminders as well.

    Extremely happy with the overall experience at A Pups Dream! This was my little guys first time getting groomed and I was a little nervous about how well he'd do, but the text message updates & pictures helped ease my nerves! I could tell Cookie was treated with lots of care & patience. I would certainly recommend A Pups Dream, and I will certainly be taking Cookie again!

    Astrid R.

    I love this place!! Sivan did an amazing job with Oliver. He's 1 1/2 year old and super energetic and reactive, and Sivan knew how to work with him. She has experience with Aussies and made me feel super comfortable leaving Oliver in her hands. We had previously taken him to another groomer who botched his haircut so I had been hesitant to try a new groomer, but A Pups Dream definitely exceeded my expectations. We will come back and also recommend A Pups Dream to all pup parents!

    Love that they provide one on one grooming. My pup gets a little nervous. They were so sweet and did an amazing job! Definitely recommend this spot especially if you have a Pomeranian

We chatted briefly and I let Kyla know I wanted every service available for my baby. She did not try to upsell services, even though I would've gladly agreed. EL & Kyla went to the grooming area and I set myself up in the waiting area to watch a movie on my IPad. Did I mention they have free guest Wi-Fi? I was also offered beverages several times and checked on to make sure I was well and comfy. The entire staff was friendly & so we're most of the clients. One client even sat and chatted with me while he enjoyed a nice flute of champs. I snuck peaks at my baby girl who looked pleasantly relaxed each time I played spy. It looked like a total spa day for her. When I knew she was almost done I went to the nearby market. I was completely unmissed because when I came back my little girl was still happily vibing with her new friend. I saw people use the self service wash which looked amazingly stocked. I usually self wash my baby somewhere else, but decided she was at a point where we would both benefit from a real groomer. So glad we did. When all was said and done Elli looked amazing! Her double coat was fully blown out! Shiny shiny shiny! Her nails were beautifully trimmed. She came out happy, bandanad, bowed and bedazzled! Total love this for her. Do yourselves and fur babies a favor and bring them here.

Unfortunately, the service we've received over the past several months has declined so dramatically that we can no longer trust this business with our three dogs. When Leah left, the owner, Joanne, personally assured my wife and me that nothing would change and that Maze, Buddy, and Denahi would continue to receive the same level of care we'd always experienced. That promise was not kept. The last two visits were the final straw. On one visit, we were told that senior dogs took priority, which resulted in us not being able to pick up our dogs until approximately 8:30 p.m. On the next visit, we were told cats had delayed the schedule, and once again we weren't able to pick up our dogs until nearly 9:00 p.m. Those aren't reasonable pickup times, especially when customers have planned their entire day around your schedule. Every business runs into unexpected situations. What separates a great business from a poorly run one is communication and accountability. We received neither. What disappointed us even more was the complete lack of follow-through. My wife called specifically asking to speak with Joanne. She was told Joanne would return her call within a couple of days. That phone call never came. No explanation. No apology. No acknowledgment. Nothing. That silence spoke volumes. Loyal customers deserve better than excuses, broken promises, and being ignored. We spent years supporting this business because we believed our dogs were in good hands. Loyalty should mean something. Instead, it felt like once they had our business, our concerns simply didn't matter. The most frustrating part is that this didn't have to end this way. A simple phone call. An honest conversation. An apology. Taking responsibility. Any one of those things could have gone a long way. Instead, we were left feeling dismissed and unimportant after years of supporting this business. We didn't make the decision to leave lightly. Finding a groomer you trust with your pets isn't easy, and we truly hoped we'd never have to look elsewhere. Sadly, Joanne's lack of communication and declining customer service left us with no choice. If you're considering Purrfect Pet Parlor, understand that our experience has been one of declining service, poor communication, broken promises, and a complete disregard for long-time customers. Based on what we've experienced, we simply can't recommend them anymore. We're incredibly disappointed that a relationship built over so many years ended this way. Our dogs deserved better. We deserved better.

    Exceptional service; very quick too! My little dog doesn't need haircuts, but Lily had an…read moreall-services-except-haircut flea bath for an excellent price! I found my new groomer! Lily recently had an eye surgery, so I was paranoid reading reviews for other groomers. We'd prefer to keep the eye we still have. Soggy Dog definitely lives up to its 5-star reviews! Just in case anyone else is reading this that has a one-eyed dog (or any dog with blindness), Tanyss's most recent rescue is a one-eyed dog too, so that made me feel much better :) APPOINTMENT/COMMUNICATION: I called on Thursday but they were closed for a staff event; they got back to me asap by text & I ended up scheduling for Saturday afternoon. Elle called when Lily was almost done (only 30 mins later). Their communication is very quick and clear so if you have any questions regarding services, feel free to ask ahead of time! PAYMENT: They accept cash and check, but you get free enzymatic teeth brushing if you pay cash! My dog is 9-10lbs & pricing depends on weight, but for an all-inclusive flea bath (nails, teeth, blueberry facial, gland expression) I paid less than $50 before tip. That is significantly less than I've been charged at other places. Tanyss even explained that with the rising costs of living, they strive to make such services affordable :) MY FEARFUL REACTIVE DOG: was very comfortable here. When I picked her up, Elle (we share a name!!) was holding her & Lily wasn't shaking?? She also wasn't desperate to leave; she was so chill?? Keep in mind this is the same Lily who loses it if I bring her to a pet store (another place that smells like a bunch of dogs have been there). Do not get me started on the vet--this chihuahua acts like she's being deployed. She was confused when we first tried to enter, & Elle (as in not me Elle) suggested I pick her up so she doesn't get out of her harness, which is TOO accurate bc that exact thing has happened to us sooooooo many times. Elle clearly knows dogs, haha. But when I picked her up, she couldn't be more chill! PARKING: So turns out you can stop at the red loading zone right in front for pickup/drop-off, & Elle even explained that if the police pull up, they'll bat for you as a client who was literally unloading a dog, LOL. I didn't see the text about the loading zone & ended up parked a few blocks down the street, because parking in this area is a struggle. Use the loading zone! Save yourself! SUMMARY: Lily has her new grooming place :)))

They take the time to meet your dog, accommodate for which groomer your dog vibes with most to help alleviate any of their stress, communicate with you 30 minutes prior to completion so you could prepare for your pickup in a timely fashion, and send the cutest picture of your dog all groomed!

When we arrived, the groomer, Gloria, greeted us warmly, really listened to what I wanted, and immediately understood exactly what my pup needed. When I picked him up, I was blown away. He looked AMAZING--calm, happy, and honestly like he didn't even want to leave. I love that they're kennel-free, so the dogs aren't locked up before or after grooming. That alone gave me so much peace of mind. This was hands-down the best haircut he's ever had. Not a single nick or cut (which sadly has happened at other groomers), and the entire staff made me feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for. He smiled the entire car ride home, and I could tell he knew he looked extra cute I've officially found my go-to groomer, and I couldn't be happier!

They did not accomadate a simple request, apologize or attempt to emend thier errors.

It was a last minute appointment needed for the little pup and with the help of Yelp, we found Sara. I put in a searched which came up with places for what I was looking for. There were a few places that came up but she was the first to reach out. The sweet conversation explained what I was looking for and she replied professionally with what services they offered. Between a few back and forth we were able to get him in last minute. She squeezed us in day off which we were very thankful of. The place itself was in a mini strip mall with a few other businesses. A thrift/vintage shop, a bar, a few coffee shops, hair salon and nail shop. There's a decent size parking lot but when we arrived it was packed but lucky enough to find a spot. When we walked in, it was a little confusing as it was a vet. The ladies behind the counters were all sweet when we checked in but wasn't sure we were at the right place. Well, it's a vet and groomers on site. It was just a couple minutes wait till Sara came out to greet us. First off, she's such a doll and sweetheart. Very professional and takes pride in what she does. Chatted with here for a little bit about what we wanted before handing over the little pup to her. We were quoted about 2 and half hour or so which she'll call us 20 minutes before hand to let us know he'll be ready soon. Freddie Mercury was in good hand. Picking him up, he was such a cutie. The bathing, cut and grooming was great. Nails were cut and file for that nice finished look. Also he had the cutest little bow tie on which was the little icing on the cake. From the chat on Yelp, Sara explained all the pricing and services ahead of time to give us the breakdown. As it was our first time, she did take good care of us with everything. Total for everything and extra add on including gratuity and discounts for first time, it was just short of 130.00. Price wise for everything was good. It was worth it and her service was very well worth it. Even though we're not from the area and it was a last minute appointment, we're keeping her in our book as we'll be back in town again and know Freddie will be in good hands next time. The place was very professional and clean. There's a drinks section with a mini fridge of drinks and a water station for refilling your bottles and coffee machine. It was busy which is great for them. Sara, a professional and sweet person who has a special skills for what she does. Friendly, sweet and a doll. Highly recommend Sara.

    We're new to Bark Boutique and had a great experience! The parking lot is a bit small, so just be…read moreprepared for that. You're greeted by a very clean and spacious lobby that's attached to the LBC vet office. The receptionist is very kind and welcome. The groomer, Roxanne, may be new, but she took excellent care of my corgi, Cherry, who came back looking poised and polished (as all corgis should lol). We've tried a couple of other groomers in Long Beach, but Bark Boutique and Roxanne have been wonderful! Will definitely be back soon.
