It saddens me to make this review because i've been coming here to get my dog groomed for a while now. unfortunately this last time that i took her we came back home and was scratching and pawing at her eye for a few days. i eventually took her to the vet and turned out she had a pretty massive scratch on her eye which resulted in a bad eye infection that costed me almost $1k. due to the recklessness of this place i have no choice but to find a new groomer.

Benji's, the owner is very nice. My pup always looks spectacular! It's easy to access and plenty of parking!

If I could give this place 0 stars I would . Took my dog here 3 times ! And each time the price went up . From 70 to 110 to 115 . the owner is the most rude person I have ever met and tries to intimate you . This time Iam the most upset , they cut my dogs inner ears , water went in his ear (he keeps shaking his head non stop causing to develop an ear infection) and cut his nose !!!! Yet still over charges ??? I get it ... some places because of inflation PRICES HAVE GONE UP BUT NOT FOR DOG GROOMING ???? And to over charge me and hurt my dog ???? Couldn't post video of his ears . But definitely will warn everyone to stay away .

SO SO AMAZING!!! I found this groomer on Yelp when I was just in the area looking for something last minute. And honestly I'm so glad I stumbled across this place. Literally the groomer is SO sweet! I love in Glendale and the 45-50 minute drive to come here is so worth it! My girls come back dry (which is a pet peeve of mine when they return my pups still wet), they smell SO fresh (not like wet dog) and they do not smell musty at all, and my girls are always so happy here. The usual places I go to take my pups haven't been the best recently, so I honestly don't mind making the drive here. We use a metal prong to train and more often than not, my girls' fur turns a bit grayish from the metal and it's usually impossible for me to get it off. When I take them to our groomers nearby, they're never able to fully get rid of it. But at Benji's, idk how but they're always able to get their fur looking the whitest it's ever been! The owner really took the time to get to know me and my girls, and what I love is that there is a play room for them to hangout at while they wait for their turn to get groomed! Other places just stick your pups into a kennel and they sit there for hours Benji's Dog Grooming really truly cares about your pup and my girls always come back looking the freshest they've ever been

10/10 would come back. They were able to take my dog in same day appointment. The place is very clean. My dog looks SO good and fluffy. They def know how to groom poodles. Highly recommend to give this place a try!

Do yourself a favor and please don't bring your dog here. I told them to just trim my Shitzu's hair when I came back after a couple of hours my dog's hair was completely shaved. I told the guy that my dog looked different and he had the guts to tell me "well he got a haircut!" They will ruin your dog's appearance here. Photos below for reference.

Rachel H.

my wife specifically asked the groomer to just trim the chest and rear of my dog. She goes to pick him up and HE IS COMPLETELY SHAVED. This is unacceptable, corgis are not suppose to be shaved at all as it can irreparably damage their double coat. At least they refunded but if i could give zero stars i would. we have been here before and they did it right, idk what the hell the groomer was thinking. Their groomers are untrained in knowing proper care for specific dog breeds. DO NOT GO HERE

We've been bringing our puppy Nala here since she was 12 weeks old, she is now 8 months old and loves going to Benji's every time. When she sees the owner she gets so excited because she knows it's her spa day and loves all the workers there. Honestly can't go wrong with this place.

I've been bringing my Mini Schnauzer here since she was 3 months. On occasion I bring my lab. Once a month she gets a cut and it's clock work. I recently discovered they bathe ALL dogs with Dawn dish soap. This time they shaved my schnauzer confusing her with another schnauzer. Giving the other schnauzer my dogs cut and then giving me the other dog. I knew immediately she wasn't my dog. Shaved her body/skirt and left her face long. They apologized profusely and when I took her back this time for grooming they acted like I was crazy and had no idea what I was talking about. Do NOT bring your pup here. They bathe your pup with dish soap and do not listen to instructions.

Sharon C.

This place did a amazing job with my Vixen, it was my first time here, staff was nice & professional. I was called within 2 hours to pick her up she looked & smelled clean & no shedding! I will definitely continue to bring Vixen here in the future.

I have had Desiree as our groomer for our golden retriever for years. Desiree used to groom at a salon in Los Angeles but recently moved to Benjis and we followed her to the new location. She is simply the best - she is caring, gentle and is one of the few groomers that knows how to groom a retriever. We love her and our dog adores her. We feel so lucky to have our dog in her care! read more

We switched groomers for once and long behold my poor pup was left with bloodshot eyes. I took him to the vet for medicine once it wasn't improving after 2 days. He was given medicine to be on for two weeks. Love to support local businesses but this one missed the mark. A $70 something groom turned into an expensive vet bill. Beware. read more

I am beyond angry with this place. Every time you speak to the guy he's got the worst attitude imaginable. His employees kick the dogs around as they please, they don't take them out to use the restroom, and do not give them water. I picked my dog up with the most botched, ugly, and uneven haircut you've ever seen. On top of that I was overcharged. Normally a small dog is $60 & a flea bath is extra $5, however i was charged $80. And when we expressed concern, and asked for them to either fix it or give us a refund, he told his worker to basically just let us leave. read more

They told me that I could bring my dog in same day after getting a quote on the phone. The groomer listened to what I wanted and left my baby looking so cute like a little teddy bear. Times are honestly tough right now with unemployment due to coronavirus but finding a decently priced groomer for my pets needs was the highlight of our day!

After i pay for the service then they inform me that they had CUT MY DOGS EAR. Its very unprofessional to take someone's money before informing them that you injured their dog. Even after me being informed there was no sort of compensation. After reading the reviews, i notice THIS IS A COMMON THING AT THIS GROOMER. I would give zero stars if i could. I will be taking legal action for my dogs medical expenses! Also i don't know if they super glued his ear back together or what the hell they did as they didn't provide any information.

She was testing out the place for a few days and we started off by leaving her 1-2 hours a day, she was nervous of course, as a dog should be going into a new place. The weekend crew were extremely kind to her when she barked and calmed her down. But come Monday, there was a new person in the den and instead of trying to calm an anxious dog, he squirt her with a bottle multiple times to get her to stop barking. Which if you know anything about dogs, you should never do that to an anxious pup. We really liked it up until today, so just beware. Thankfully we were able to watch it all on camera and picked her up the second we felt it was getting out of hand. A note for the owner - please try to find alternative ways to help a dog who is struggling to settle. Spraying them in the face and chest multiple times is an ineffective way to stop an unwanted behavior. This is extremely detrimental to their behavioral development and only causes more fear.

Updating stars as the store manager addressed this with me personally…read more This review is for the big curly headed guy who works there. Everyone else understands that a dog who is nervous and barking should be comforted. This guy just keeps spraying water towards the dog instead. She came home soaken wet. Extremely unprofessional especially on a dog's first week. The other employees did well and comforted her, but he should not be in the room with dogs.

You can tell she is a dog lover. She also has a beautiful backyard with a majestic tree that I wished I could hang out in. Her dog Bentley is an energetic but super sweet Whippet. Debbie sent daily updates and photos that helped ease my anxiety over leaving our pup for the first time. I would totally recommend Happy Paws and will definitely use again in future

Debbie welcomed him with loving arms and took exceptional care of him despite his challenging personality. She is very responsive, sends daily updates with photos, and puts your mind at ease while you're away. She was a beautiful backyard for the dogs to play in and takes them on daily walks. She allowed us to drop off Obbi the afternoon before we traveled and didn't charge us! She was also super flexible with pickup time when we returned home. I really appreciate that she only boards one dog at a time, so they get her undivided attention and care. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you so much again, Debbie! Obbi can't wait to play with Bentley again!

My silly little dog is NOTORIOUS for being difficult to bathe and groom at home. I usually end up…read morebeing the one getting the bath, and her nails take us multiple days (one paw a day until she's all done). Because of this, I decided "heck, I can afford for someone else to do this if it makes my life easier." I could not be happier with the deals and multi-visit packages being offered here. For $400, I got a total of 10 visits for the year! Granted, she is on the mini side of things, but if you look at prices literally anywhere else... this kind of deal is unheard of. To top this all off, my Pebbles is an anxious chatty type and a drama queen all in one, which has been a frequent complaint we have received from other groomers since she was a puppy. Here, she's heard and appreciated as a funny little girl with a big heart and personality. I also included some pics of my girl for reference on the price that I paid. AND for all dog parents reading this, keep in mind the price also varies by the weight of your furry friends.

I am extremely sad to give this update, because my dog Dillon has been going to Andy's for a while…read moreand they've always been very good about fitting him into the schedule & just being overall cool people to deal with. He always comes back smelling well and they give him a seasonal handkerchief around his neck. Little touches that made the pricey de-shedding and grooming fees worth it ($125 for a grooming of large dog, 85lbs). I wanted to simply address this to a manager via email to show photos, but their contact form on the site is impersonal and gives no email address and no opportunity to upload photos. On his last visit on Friday, my dog came home panting and not wagging his tail. I just thought he missed me, but it felt out of place, more like a "hyperventilation" type panting. I didn't think anything of it until the next day, as I was petting him, I felt bloody scabs across his head. Till today I find more that's hidden in his long fur. I'm super sad because Andy's has done a great job with his de-shedding, and I know it's no easy task with his fur. But, he is the mildest-mannered service animal for kids with autism. He doesn't bite or bark or squirm, so to have big gashes like this on multiple parts of his skin after a grooming is a red flag. I won't be sending him to Andy's anymore. Very sad about it, but this isn't how you treat a dog or long-time customer. You disclose the cuts and address how to help treat them.
