I took my short-haired Pomchi here for a nail cut for $5. The business was a little hard to find since it is not visible from the parking lot. I had to call and ask for directions; they told me they were behind the business in the corner for the building. I did not have an appointment but when I got there, I was attended to right away. The service was fast and the groomers were nice. They are careful not to cut the quick but I would have wanted them to actually cut my dog's nails way shorter. Overall good experience. read more

My toy chihuahua got skunked pretty bad and they gave him a good razzle dazzle. They are very very reasonably priced as well! I'll definitely return to them every month for a deep clean on my boy. read more

The girls are great with our doggie Zues. He loves going to the salon! Reasonable rates and they do a wonderful job. read more

When we moved to the area a little over a year ago we were really concerned about where to take our two Persians, but then we found Penny at Canine Showcase (no, not just for dogs...) and our worries disappeared. Cats don't like any change in their routine, but it's a testament to Penny that they always come home calm and happy (and clean of course!). You can really tell that everyone who works here is an animal lover. Highly recommended. read more

Sanchia has been grooming my Corgi Molly for at least a year and does a great job. She is able to trim her fur in such a way that she still has the feathered Corgi butt features just not as long, same with the belly fur. Additionally she does a great job brushing out Molly's under coat which doesn't stop the shed but it sure as heck helps. The only bad part is the location is kind of a hole in the wall, but that is the only negative. read more

They do a great job with my yellow lab. She loves to go there and I think they love her there too! They get busy, because theyre good, but will always try their best to accommodate you. .5 star off because they recently decided to only take cash and checks. I dont carry cash or my checkbook too often, but i'll learn to remember now! Still, theyre the best. read more

I love this place. We have tried many groomers including PetSmart and about 3 or so others. My dog always came back uneven and scared to go back before. My dog is very old and the groomer was very gentle with him. I love how they let the dogs run around if they are friendly instead of caging them. I am so glad I found this place! Update September 2010: Although I do not go here anymore as I now groom my dog myself, I wanted to update my review because it does not show how great this place is. I took my previous dog (in the review before), who has now passed away, and I also took my current dog. My current dog is a Yorkie and I have never been happier with his hair cuts. Penny just does an amazing job on him every time. She also gave me tips for home-grooming and helped me with the supplies I would need. My dog used to be very squirmy so she gave me some tips and now he is the perfect dog to groom. I send all my friends and dog sitting clients here. This is a great place to take your dog for grooming if they are shy, old, or sensitive. read more

They do a great job and always manage to get my dog in on short notice. The place is clean and they are very friendly. They also get to know the dogs names and temperament. The pricing is right on par with what we are used to paying. read more

WARNING YELPERS, DO NOT TAKE YOUR PETS HERE!!! Let me start by saying that I have been a customer of Canine Showcase for 10 years taking several of my dogs to be groomed here. Sanchia is a great person and when she was the only one there was always pleasant and has a great personality and customer service for her small business. To my surprise,it appears that Sanchia has now married and her business partner (husband) could use some well deserved lessons in how to talk to clients and perhaps a lesson or 10 in some humanity and compassion! Again, I have been going to Canine Showcase for 10 and although I may not bring my dogs in every week or month, I have NEVER been scolded like a child or repremended to the degree that I was today for missing my appointment. I meant to call them and cancel but I fear that it woudn't have made a difference. Apparently if you cancel more than once or reschedule, your blacklisted. I just got off the phone with Angry Sanchia's Husband/Business Partner. After he scolded me and told me all the bad things I had done to Canine Showcase (he sounded as if I had personally offended him), I had what I thought was my chance to speak my turn-since I could not conversate with him but only listen-no interrupting. However when I did try to explain or speak he continually interrupted me and would not allow me to speak until I finally was able to say, "I listened to everything you had to say, can you not interrupt me and listen to me?" I had to say this several times before he stopped talking long enough for me to tell him that it obviously did not matter if I was a long time customer or not. I told him that it was not fair that he take me off the client list and refuse to take further appointments from me from now on. So blacklisted I have been. When I also tried to tell him to let Sanchia know that I appreciated her kindness he bruntly interrupted me and said, "Here! you can tell her yourself!" and handed her the phone. I kindly told Sanchia I was sorry this was it and that I cannot express the disappointment in knowing that I have recommended and spoken so highly of her business for so many years. She tried to say something but at that point I was done. I told her I would be putting a review on Yelp and hung up. I am still in shock that I was treated so horribly on the phone. Funny thing is that Sanchia's husband kinda acted like that in person as well. I wonder if he talks to the male clientele just as horribly and if he would have dared talk to my husband who's his size if not bigger like that. To Canine Showcase, a few recommendations..... 1. Sanchia, lose your husband as a partner or at least ban him from any communication with clients. He will eventually badmouth enough clientele that others will start to really read reviews off Yelp and take heed of what is to come or be unfortuately enough to experience it first hand and not come back and take others with them. 2. Be compassionate and understanding like Sanchia. Be respectful to to others and understand that things come up and life is not perfect. Its a shame that you feel that cutting off a long time client is in your best interest. Especially since we live in a day that Social Media rules peoples understandings and how they choose places to conduct their livelyhood and business at. I wish you luck, but honestly if you do not change this I will not be the last to share my experience on a review site. And people REALLY do read these..... Sad just sad. read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE! I've been taking my little chi here for years for nail trims. I generally stop in on a Saturday if I'm in the vicinity, but oftentimes try to call to see when a good time to show up would be, because they're so, so busy. I really love Cheeto and Sanchia, who are always so sweet with my dog, and fun to talk to. They truly embody what good customer service is all about. I used to take my dog to PetSmart in Sunnyvale for nail trims, but had a HORRIBLE experience. I have nothing but good things to say about the folks or the experience at Canine Showcase. They're the best! read more

Customer service is insulting and unbusinesslike. We have been customers for 10 years and recently the notes to customers are all about scolding those who don't follow their rules. All the notes around the store are things like "late pickups are NOT ACCEPTABLE" (their caps). When I complained, they said they had enough customers that they were willing to lose my business. No customer service there. Done. They lost my business. Don't go there! read more

This is where I bring my elderly Maine Coon cat for his summer haircuts. They were recommended by my veterinarian, and they always do well with my custom request (leaving the cat his natural ruff and tail, making him a shorthair on back and sides, and clipping him close on belly and britches). The humans are friendly and take great care of the animals. read more

GM Yelpers. Mine started off quite the opposite. I don't think I've ever given a bad review but this is most definitely deserving and I am obliged to share. I received a call back from a disgruntled man who claimed to be Sanchia's (owner) husband. I pulled that from him in the middle of being reprimanded. I didn't even know he existed until today! Nice to meet you. I had left a message to ask for a specific haircut for one of the dogs. The dogs (2) have been going to Canine Showcase for over 5 yrs-on a weekly basis. There have been some hiccups on BOTH the groomer's and my household's part but, I THOUGHT we worked through them. Boy, was I wrong. Being a loyal customer, we continued taking the dogs there mostly because they are near and Sanchia was especially good with one of the dogs. Apparently, we were being offered services at a slightly discounted price. I had no idea so thanks for yelling it to me?!! Perhaps, this ticked off the man even more?? Who knows why he woke up mad. He definitely called to chew me out rather than have a normal conversation with the intent to find a solution with a long-time customer. Hi, customer service! He stated that dealing with us has been the biggest headache and doesn't even know why Sanchia keeps dealing with us. Gee, thanks? This was the first time any of these hostile feelings were brought to my attention. It's really too bad Sanchia, the person who I thought I had a rapport with, didn't express her true feelings. Perhaps we could have come to a conclusion in a much more civil way. To end things right, this man's proposed solution was to take our services elsewhere. Nothing like a professional to provide great service and guide you through some alternative options! Good luck with the customer service, Yelpers. And, don't you dare ask for a specific haircut on the day of your appointment or you may just receive a phone call from a random disgruntled man. TGIF! read more

My first visit was not bad at all, the woman who trimmed our puppy did a great job and she only charged us $28. She talked me through what she was going to do before I left and what she did when I came to pick up. I brought our puppy in for the exact same services four weeks later. The same person was not there but someone new who did not spend any time with me but just took my dog and when I tried asking questions about the cut was cut off (no pun intended) and was rushed out. 2 1/2 hours later I was called and told that my puppy was ready for pick up. My pup did not look brushed, hair was cut uneven on his face (I even pointed this out), his paws...I don't even know how to describe how horrible they look. Thank goodness I have a super cute puppy! Oh and four weeks later for the exact same service my new total was $45!! I will not be returning... read more

My regular vet "unofficially" recommended this place to us. Baby girl had - as far as we know, since she's a rescue - her first trip to the groomers here. They were great with her and she didn't come home all tricked out with a million pink bows just because she's the world's cutest 10 year old Maltese. It was $40 total plus tip. I will say that you simply can't go in here if you have bad pet allergies. The shop is very small and the furr is a-flyin', so pop a Zyrtec or you're going to want to shoot yourself in the face. It isn't the cleanest place in the world, but they're exceptionally sweet to the pooches and do a great job. read more

I took my dog Yoshi here today, he is a Yoki-poo. The groomer was Jocelyn. After 4 hours when me and my boys picked him up, we were shocked. My beautiful dog was SHAVED, only leave a bit of hair on the ear and tail. He is ugly. My jaw was dropping and couldn't come out a word, my bigger boy almost burst out of tears and my little boy started yelling I was so cruel took Yoshi there, and we would never come again. I don't know where to start to express my disappointment towards their services. I understand Yoshi's hair was tangled a bit, but shaved him all over? Without telephone me or ask my opinion? We are very very sad to see Yoshi like this. Ariel Yule read more

This review is for Monica at Canine Showcase. She handstrips our Norwich Terrier and is awesome at it. She actually does a better job than the breeder because Monica also styles the dog too - for example, uses scissors to trim the hair instead of pulling out all of it and making it so thin. So she knows how to achieve a better, overall look. I would highly recommend her to fellow Norwich and Norfolk owners. I am giving one less star because of the venue - they do not take card and it's really messy and seemingly dirty and there's always blood around from nails being cut a bit too short. read more

We've used canine showcase for a couple years now for our two cocker spaniels. Generally pretty good - not amazing - but they get in, bathed, hair cut, and back home. Good option compared to the doggy salons that are around. read more

We have used Canine Showcase for over a year now and cannot be more pleased with their grooming services for our small dog, Dolce. They take care of any special instructions and do a thorough job at all times. Their services are highly recommended. read more

Sanchia and Chito have been grooming my three cocker spaniels for 8 years. One has since passed away, but Lizzie and Abby still go there every month. They are so patient with the girls and always point out any concerns that they might find that we didn't see. Reasonable pricing and easy to get to right off Wolf and El Camino. read more

Canine Showcase - Lizzie and Abby - Pet Stores Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

My spoiled small bread dog never went to a groomer before and never spent time without someone he knows. He just came back from his very first grooming in Canine Showcase and it was a huge success! I was sure it's going to be a traumatic experience for him - to be left alone, in a place he doesn't know with people he doesn't know... nevertheless these people will bath him (the one thing he hates the most after going to the vet), cut his hair, blow dry him. As soon as we came in he started shaking like crazy and wouldn't get off my hands. Finlay we convinced him to get down to the floor to check out the other dogs, and I left feeling sorry for him. Sanchia the owner probably saw my distress and called me with updates about how my dog is doing. I couldn't be more thankful for that. As it turned out - since they don't cage the dogs (another good reason to go there), my dog thought it is a new kind of a dog park. Sanchia treated him with patience giving him time to relax and play and he had lots of fun in between bath, and haircuts. He likes dog parks...he didn't want to leave when I came to pick him up (ahem... a bit insulting I agree). He looks adorable in his new hair cut. When I came to check him in Sanchia asked me specific questions about what I want and when I came to check him out I found exactly what I asked for - a beautifully groomed happy little dog who didn't want to leave the party. I have no idea how anyone can give this place less than five stars. It is obvious they love dogs and the dogs (and owners) love them. I also don't understand other yelpers' warnings about the look of the shop. It looks like a grooming shop. Isn't it how it supposed to be looking like? Yes, its small, but would one prefer to go to an industrial looking big place with no personal service? I love small intimate places, with personal service. read more

I've taken my dog here about 3 times and I keep coming back. The staff is super awesome, and their prices are good too! I heard that most pet owners in the area take their dogs here. read more

Terrific place, our little Lola came out looking so white and smelling fresh.They even gave her a cute accessory on her collar. The owner was so nice and you can tell her passion is with animals! read more

I was really hoping that this place can be my goto place for glooming my miniature Schnauzer. I have have taken my dog to Canine showcase 4 times. The first 3 times was good (which i think was done by the owner herself), but last time wasn't as they made him look like a goofball. Essentially his beard was short and lopsided. They claimed that his beard was too tangled and they had to cut it off. Will if that is true, at least make it EVEN. Sadly, I wish this could have been my goto place pet grooming, but now I'm on the quest for a new groomer. read more

I brought Swankie in for a shave at the spur of the moment after boarding. I am grateful that Toni, the groomer, alerts me of the cut on her front paw and provides home remedy to rectify the issue prior to making an appointment with the veterinarian. This is the most attentive and caring grooming venue that I have ever experienced. read more

I just started working with this couple a few months ago. I am not a big people person, but these people have the biggest hearts. Sanchia is a saint. Cheeto tells it how it is, especially if he see's his wife getting taken advantage of in any way. He stands up for her as much as he can. She has a big heart and has a hard time saying no sometimes lol just like me. Being as over worked and under paid as they are I think they deserve so much more for what they do. I'm so happy to have met this couple. Wishing you good fortune and prosperity, you deserve it. read more

I took my two Shih Tzu's here and had a fabulous experience. Toni did the grooming for them and they look fabulous. She was quick, but made sure to groom them properly. They both had matting and were pretty overgrown, but she managed to make them soft, clean and smooth. They were very happy after their grooming and even smelled amazing. I'm so pleased with the prices and staff. I would definitely recommend them to anyone with dogs, especially those that can be hard to groom. I'll definitely be taking my dogs back there! read more

I've been bringing my dog to Canine Showcase for many years and they always do a terrific job. My anxiety prone dog is never stressed out when I pick him up, which is really nice :) read more

The first time I brought our husky, I just found out how handsome he is. They did a great job cleaning and grooming him. They are friendly. Their rates are very reasonable. Lobo is now a regular customer here. read more

I have been looking for a new dog groomer because I was not happy with the last groomer. I found this place on Yelp of course. They were very nice and listen to what I wanted done on my dog. My dog's cut turned out well. Her face trim was very close to the picture I had brought. They also made sure that they cut all my dog's nails. They have decent prices. For a full groom for a small dog is about $48. It includes ear hair trim, face, nails, full body cut, teeth brushing, bath, and glands. It is a small location and it is in the back of a shopping plaza, but It is a very friendly place and my dog was very comfortable there. read more

I signed up just to review this place. I have a totally shy and neurotic dog, and Canine Showcase is always perfect with him. They never rush him and make sure he is comfortable, even if it means taking 3 different shifts to dry his coat. He never minds coming there - and he minds EVERYTHING. I feel so comfortable leaving him there because I know they will not pin him up, he will be played with and loved the whole time. And he always looks AWESOME when I pick him up - the follow your wishes to a tee. I have moved away, and I miss this place!!!! read more

Today was the first time my boyfriend and I took our long haired chihuahua mix for a grooming. We took him in at noon and was ready for pick up before 3:00 pm. We were charged $38 for a bath, a trimming, and nail trimming. We thought that was a very fair price. Penny was really nice and we were very impressed with her. I've read all the previous ratings regarding the cleanliness, but I feel it is expected to see dog fur on the floor since it is kind of like going to get a hair cut for yourself. There will be hair on the floor. I had no problem with that. We are looking forward to taking our Ricky here for his grooming in the future. read more

So happy we found this place! I was a bit nervous dropping our dog off at a new groomer but the owners understood and they called me to update me on his status during his first appointment so that I wouldn't have to worry. Teddy, our dog, loved it and his haircut looks amazing. Looking forward to his next appointment! read more

Our pup usually HATES the groomers. He runs for his life once he realizes where he is. They must do something right at Canine Showcase because he shows no such emotions. Based on my experience, the owners are friendly and I've had no bad experience in terms of customer service. The Bay Area seems to be becoming a haven for entitled a-holes so I can see how it can be frustrating to provide quality customer service all the time if you're in the services industry. read more

Just picked up my new rescue dog from Canine Showcase and I could not be more pleased with both their service and how my dog looks. After leaving a message asking for a return call I received a very friendly call back on their next business day. I explained that my dog has separation anxiety and may be skittish with them. They were very understanding and said they would work with my dog to ensure she was comfortable and not stressed. As they are very popular I had to book 6 weeks out but was placed on a cancellation list. Lo and behold I got a call the next day and was able to bring her in. I was happily greeted and they took care to intake my dog at her own pace. I really appreciated that they asked for proof of rabies and Bordetella vaccinations as well. One huge positive for me is that the dogs they groom are not placed in kennels - unless necessary - but are allowed to be out with other dogs and free to roam around within the confines of the business. An hour and a half later Penny was ready. Picked her up looking great and happy. And the price cannot be quibbled with. I had been using a mobile groomer for my other dog at twice the price and was far more impressed with the service provided by Canine Showcase. I highly recommend them and will be using them for both of my dogs going forward. Two notes - they are very busy so book in advance; and they only accept cash or check so come prepared. read more

Love them!! My little Coco is a handful and they are patient and loving with her. She always comes home looking great and gets so excited to go back every few weeks! I wouldn't take her anywhere else! read more

Outstanding place!! The only place I'll take my joey and pepper! Thank you! They made time to do an awesome cut on both my babies! The owner is a great example of great customer service! read more

I love these people!! My dog is a special needs dog and they are absolutely wonderful with him. They always do a great job. Sometimes the owner's husband helps and he is so sweet and gentle with the dogs. I come from San Jose, so it is not close, but it is worth it to me because I trust them with my dog. I highly recommend them. read more

I can't say enough nice things about the two who run this groomer shop, Sanchia and Cheeto. They're kind-hearted people who genuinely enjoy working with dogs, and their prices are amazing for the quality of work. I've been taking my dog here for two years, and I definitely suggest giving Canine Showcase a try! read more

I recently moved to the area and was in need for a new groomer. I was recommended here and of all the groomers I've ever been to, it is THE best. My dog has skin issues and upon initially explaining to them what was going on, they asked great questions that other groomers haven't asked me before about his skin and how to care for it. He's also a typically shy dog. Every time I've ever picked him from a groomer he sits in the kennel in the very back and doesn't get up until somebody approaches to get him out. I was pleased to see him running around, smelling things, and getting lots of love from the owners when I picked him up. I could tell they had truly cared for him just by the things they said when I got him and how he was acting when I got there. It was a relief to see him so happy upon pickup when he shakes so badly at drop off. Aside from this they groomed his fur exactly, if not better, than the photo I showed them of a previous haircut of his. I'm so incredibly impressed with this place and can't wait to go back. read more
