    Our cats nails had grown incredibly long and were always difficult for my partner and I to trim. I called Joan and she told me I could come in today to have their nails trimmed. Joan was very friendly and caring with the cats and I was stunned by how quickly she was able to trim everything. Not a peep from either cat. They knew that they were safe with Joan. I highly recommend her. We will be back every 6 weeks. Thank you!!

    Scabs and cuts from improper handling. Please stay away!

    They only care for money, please look at the pictures attached before deciding to book here! My pet was left with several scabs due to improper grooming, which she NEVER happened before. Feathering wasn't cut as asked for. Only the feathering/long hair on my dogs hind legs were. My pet dog was left white, which was good. They added a miniature .5inch bow tie. Skimped us on adding a scarf in him which most groomers do. I'll probably have to take my dog to ANOTHER groomer within a month or so unfortunately. They charged 80 dollars. You can tell them what to do, and they won't listen and you won't receive your dog as expected. For 20 dollars and shampoo, a little kid could've done a better job. Please stay away!

    Incredible service at Clip n Dip. It was my first time taking my golden pup who is very attached and easily scared. The intake process was easy and I felt comfortable leaving her. When I picked her up, she had two bows in her hair and a big smile on her face. She also smelled amazing and her nails were cut perfectly. Will definitely be returning again.

    My dog Soho has been here a few times now and I am so happy I found a groomer that I do not plan on switching. My dog does not try to run away when he sees the place and always comes out so clean and fluffy! Joan is the best and knows how to handle dogs of all sizes. Washing my 100 pound golden isn't easy!

    This was Sams first visit to Clip and Dip. Joan was extremely nice. Sammy could be difficult at times as he was a rescue. We love the professionalism and patience. He looks awesome and kudos to all involved in his grooming. We will be back. TYVM

    I have been taking my dog for haircuts at Clip and Dip for close to 2 years now and we have always had a great experience up until now. It breaks my heart to write this but I don't want this to happen to any other dog! We brought our dog in for a haircut and she was returned to us bleeding and covered in scratches and what appeared to be razor burn. That night, she did not sleep, she cried all night and was sincerely uncomfortable and in pain. We ended up having to take her to the vet and $200 later she is now on antibiotics for the cuts from her haircut as they were worried of infection based on the cytology findings. I would really like to think that this is a one off situation but I can no longer trust bringing my dog here and having this happen again. I contacted Joan to inform her that this had happened and offered to send her the pictures, but she only wanted to see them the next time that we come in, which we unfortunately will not be doing due to these circumstances. She did apologize, but failed to take accountability for what had happened and insisted that it must have been brush marks. Brushing a dog should not cause bleeding and marks to this extent (please see photos).

    We just moved to Boston and had no idea with any groomers here. We picked this place because it had decent reviews on Yelp. We have a 43lb Samoyed. We have tried different groomers in our old town but he always shed a lot after grooming. This time we were surprised that he did not shed at all after we picked him up. His fur also looked super soft and shiny after grooming. I guess it might because they used better shampoo or brushed him well. They also tied a cute bow on him.

    Average wash, nothing spectacular about the services offered. Owner/manager did fit in both our dogs on a Saturday with a last minute wash.

    Brenda is the best groomer in Boston! After several disappointing experiences with other groomers,…read moreI'm so grateful to have found her. She is gentle yet efficient, and my dog always looks incredibly handsome after each visit. The holiday-themed accessories he comes home with are an especially fun and thoughtful touch. Brenda is a pleasure to work with--professional, communicative, and accommodating--and her pricing is excellent for the outstanding quality she delivers. The free off-street parking at her location is also a huge convenience. I would recommend Brenda to anyone without hesitation!

She took the time to work with him at his pace, building trust with so much patience and kindness. Now he's genuinely excited to see her and is so much more comfortable with the entire grooming process. What really stands out is how much she truly cares. She goes beyond just grooming--she shares helpful recommendations for products, gives us tips on how to keep him comfortable at home, and even flags things like skin concerns early so we can stay on top of them. On top of that, she's always punctual, super responsive, and just a genuinely warm and funny person. We feel so lucky to have found her and would recommend her to everyone.

    Came to four paws in hopes of finding a new groomer I can stick to in this area. I had really high…read morehopes. I didn't love the first hair cut they gave my dog but rescheduled for another one 6 weeks in advanced since I saw them do good work on others. I scheduled far in advanced and even gave a hefty tip so that they knew I was serious about working with them long term. Fast forward, I was on my way to my appointment when I came across some traffic and called to let them know I'd be a couple minutes late. They told me they couldn't take me past 15 mins. I showed up at the mark and they turned me down at the door. I was disappointed because i called out of courtesy and it made me wonder, if I hadn't called would I have been accepted? It was also 9am so i was one of the first clients of the day. I understand the policy and should've followed the time better, but the way they spoke over the phone and turned me down in person felt so degrading. I wish they could've been more understanding and worked with me to find something that fit for everyone without having an attitude or treating me less than. I suspect that once they've reached a good amount of clients, they don't care to keep others who may be interested. I won't be returning to this location due to the costumer service. In addition, they keep all the dogs loos in one small area regardless of size. When I picked up my dog for the first time I got a ton of hair on me.

    Customer service here unfortunately terrible. A very disappointing experience with this dog…read moregrooming salon. They require a $30 deposit which is fine. I provided them with $40 expecting my change back they wouldn't provide change and kept the full amount. On the day of the appointment, we got lost trying to find the location and kept them updated about the situation. Instead of being understanding, they told us she only had a 15-minute window. We communicated that we wasn't sure we could make it in time since we are currently lost & our Dog had started vomiting . I asked the the person assisting me On the phone was there anyway to reschedule it and they said a new deposit was required even tho they kept the difference of the money from the deposit that they never gave back. Despite the communication, they kept the deposit and said a manager would reach out. Instead of a call, later received a letter stating they would no longer provide services. The lack of flexibility, poor communication, and unprofessional handling of the situation were very disappointing. I would not recommend this business based on this experience
