    Our sweet Lovey!!

    We took our new puppy here for the first time and the groomer did a beautiful job giving Lovey a summer cut. We wanted to keep some length on our sweet pup, but make sure she would be cool enough with outside temperatures. Lovey was happy when we picked her up, which tells me she was loved while there. Aside from the excellent grooming job, the staff at Bark and Purr are PHENOMENAL to their customers. I had 2 of my young daughters with me when I picked up our puppy. They were both visibly upset due to a situation unrelated to the business and the staff was beyond kind and made sure my children and I were safe and okay. We will definitely be back! Thank you Bark and Purr!!!

    Their kindness, gentleness and skill , all outstanding Badger was a pup getting his first real haircut. He was matted and they were able to fix him up without shaving him down. Excellent job!

    Kareem and his staff were very professional and welcoming. When I picked my babies up they looked happy and well cared for. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family. The staff had a great vibe and made everything run smoothly. Thank you

    My Pebbles
    Emily C.

    This is my baby, Pebbles. She is almost 19. I RARELY take her to the groomers because I hate the stress it puts on cats. But due to matting, I can only trust a groomer to help. I found this place which has MANY good reviews and when I called, the front desk was so sweet! Upon scheduling for the next day on August 10th at 1:30 pm, I informed them that she is a senior cat while giving all necessary details about new clients. All seemed well & once I met the groomer she seemed great. They called her the "Cat Queen." She even had paintings of her own cats. Then the receptionist called out to the groomer "She's 18!" She was immediately affectionate with Pebbles as she examined her which made me firmly believe that she would be well taken care of. Upon examining Pebbles, she informed us that due to pebbles' old age she would NOT be using shavers. That deshedding and a shampoo would be best and I agreed. I initially wanted a trim and mats cut off because her hair can get really scraggly & matted. It took longer than expected which is understandable, and once 3 hours was approaching we decided to head back and wait. The groomer said it would take an additional 45 minutes because a dog was too noisy nearby. My first thought once I saw pebbles was it seemed nothing was done. The groomer started explaining pebbles had multiple mats stuck on her tummy and while using a SHAVER (which I was confused about because we BOTH agreed a shaver would NOT be used) the shaver was pulling at her very thin skin. She showed me quickly the multiple wounds she sustained while trying to shave her and my heart sank. Once I grabbed her & examined her, I noticed the larger wound on her chest area that really got me. We went back and forth a bit out of confusion because I could not understand how or why this happened. I was shaking. While the groomer went on about a senior cat's thin skin which I am well aware of, she kept expressing how she wanted to "make me happy" and asked if I truly wanted her haircut I would need to be present. I told her REPEATEDLY it was okay because my head was only focused on getting Pebbles out. While holding Pebbles, the groomer was VERY persistent on cutting more of her fur even though I kept saying it was okay. While trying to continue grooming her in my arms, I kept saying it was okay and the groomer accidentally dropped the shaver on pebbles and said "I'm more nervous here than you are." The groomer told the receptionist to only charge a bathe and was still adamant about accepting that she made a mistake on Pebbles. I went straight to an Urgent Care. The vet said this was either done by scissors, or by her fur being ripped from her skin. No, I don't want to believe this could've been done by her bare hands but scissors made me believe that she might've tried her best at first without a shaver but something obviously went very wrong here. Pebbles did not need stitches, thankfully. She needed a skin glue procedure with ointment and antibiotics. The owner messaged me thus making me believe she felt guilty and is aware she made a mistake. I appreciate the response, but it doesn't make me feel any better for my girl. I am aware they've done very well with other babies, but I am extremely saddened the same could not have been done with mine. Whether it was negligence, trying to rush, or confusion I don't know & felt the groomer was trying to blame anything else but her own fault in the moment. I still cannot wrap my head around it. They knew all the details. I take FULL responsibility for entrusting she knew what she was doing. Thank you to the receptionist for being sweet throughout everything. This is more of a lesson well learned. Just letting other cat owners know.. Photos attached: Unfortunately, no photos were taken prior to the procedure because my main focus was her well-being. The photo is after her procedure which still shows how large her flesh wound was prior to being glued.

    We absolutely love Bark and Purr! They have done a wonderful job on our Labradoodle Gus. He has received the short "summer cut" and the winter longer cut. The shop is clean, front desk is kind and helpful, and Gus comes out smelling and looking great!

    My puppy Charlie looking spiffy with his new cut and bow tie. The service was great and the team friendly!  Somehow they always do well!

    I've been there a few times and they never disappoint! My pups always walk out happy and that's most important to me!

    My first time at Bark and Purr and the staff was so nice and friendly and worked with my schedule. They took great care of my Lucy. She felt safe and comfortable. I highly recommend this place!

We live in Lake Stevens which is out of her travel range so we met at McCollum park in Everett for our sessions. We have a 6 month old Whippet and the web is full of information about how Whippets are not motivated to be trained, can never be trusted off leash, no training collars (they have thin necks), are very sensitive, etc. After reading all this I was left bewildered. I had trained our previous dog (Lab) but I felt like nothing I knew before would work on this dog and I hadn't even started! Cheryl put my mind at ease. She felt that a balanced approach (a gentler training collar with lots of positive reinforcement) was the way to go and how a dog is trained and what it can and can't do is up to the individual dog and its owner. We signed up for her Silver package and met twice a week for 5 weeks. After our first lesson I was so pleased I could cry. Just that lesson taught Dobby not to pull which was his biggest issue. From there he learned sit, down, come, place, heel, stay, not to jump up on people and just how to generally pay attention to me more than his surroundings. Its tough for him as Sighthounds see everything and are intensely interested. But he's come so so far. Cheryl never lost her cool, never lost her patience and she had a solution for every issue that came up. I had to bring my 4 kids numerous times as we homeschool and she was never (visibly) annoyed, even though they were sometimes quite annoying :) We did end up using an electronic collar and our last few sessions involved working with him on that. He has begun work off leash using this collar. It also helps make corrections at home when he doesn't have a leash on and is far away. I would recommend using the e-collar option if it fits into your budget. Its been really nice. I can't recommend Cheryl highly enough. We really enjoyed our time with her and Duke and her impact on Dobby and us will last a very long time. She enabled us to have a well-behaved dog that we can take anywhere. That's priceless.

They got to know both of my dogs and me very quickly and always know our names. The facility was nice and clean when I got to inspect it but it is a bit on the small side. Yes, there are facilities with huge outdoor pastures but you're also going to pay an arm and a leg for those. My dogs? They don't care where they are...they just want to play with other dogs and people and get a lot of attention, and that is what they get here. I bought a pack of daycare passes to save some extra dollars and they were one of the better deals in town. There was a place with a better price and facility but they weren't located near the freeway so that was a dealbreaker for me. This place also offers grooming. The groomer is a positively lovely girl. The price is solid and she does a good job. I'm super particular about how my poodle is groomed though so she isn't my regular groomer, but if I had any other breed I'd feel confident taking them here. I was running a few minutes late one night and they were able to accommodate me so that I could get my dogs just a few minutes after closing time and I really appreciate them being able to take care of me like that. I highly recommend this place as a daycare, boarding, or grooming facility for your pups. My dogs practically leap out of the car when we pull into the parking lot here....they love it.
