Great people friendly helpful and loving . They are patient and they took great care of my paw baby.

I've been taking my dog to Sandra for a couple of years now, and she always provides exceptional care. She's meticulous and attentive, ensuring my dog is well-groomed every time. Plus, my dog always leaves with the cutest little scarf, which is such a sweet touch! read more

Avoid, my brother took our puppies here recently and will never come back here. My dogs looked nothing like what I showed them. Their haircuts are blotchy and unevenly cut. One of them are completely shaved down. The other they took some much off from the too of his head but left the sides untouched. Theirs stomached are full of uneven patches. Their nails were cut incorrectly and are now very sharp. I'm not happy with this at all. I wouldn't recommend bringing your dogs here if you care about them. I should have known when they called saying my dogs were ready in an hour and half for 2 dogs that something was off! Anywhere else takes atleast 3 to 4 hours. I now have to wait months for their hair to grow back so it can be corrected elsewhere. *UPDATE* - in reply to the owner's response on Google, which was completely unprofessional. My dogs look nothing like what I showed you. I'm confused as to what you're even talking about, my review is based on exactly how I saw my dogs haircuts, horrible. I wouldn't have trusted you to correct it. I left good tip because I come from a service based industry not because you did a great job. Thank you for your passive aggressive reply. It does nothing but further prove to people why they should avoid your services. read more

Dog Friendly Grooms - The owners unprofessional response via Google. - Pet Groomers Near Me - Ridgewood, New York

Excellent groomers! Very trust worthy but book in advance because they are busy. I highly recommend.

So glad I found this groomer! I had to find a different groomer for my two babies when my mobile groomer raised her prices to an unreasonable amount. Dog Friendly Grooms does a great job. Sandra, the owner is super friendly and is very responsive. I can make appointments easily and they are able to work around my schedule. The grooming is done quickly and efficiently. I have two dogs and they are usually done within an hour and a half. I definitely recommend them! read more

I am extremely angry at the owner of this business. This is the third time we have taken our Pom to her for grooming, and although we have never had any real issue with their services, today, changed that entirely! We are always very adamant about her tail being cut, trimmed or any other form of alteration. The groomer admitted it was her mistake, and in no way or form did I blame her defensive attitude for our poms alopecia. However, the inability to accept responsibility, or even offer a solution to the fact that SHE DID NOT FOLLOW direction, knowing that we already have an issue with her hair growth. I was less than kind for very obvious reasons! I would never hang up on a paying customer, especially since I screwed up! I will be reporting this business to the Better a business Bureau, and if need be file a small claim at small claims court! The owners lack of professionalism, lack of being able to actively listen to a very valid complaint, and inability to take her emotion out of the situation is not only a blemish on her business but on her person! I WOULD MOST DEFINITELY NOT RECOMMEND THIS GROOMER TO ANYONE WHO IS NEW TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD! read more

Really disappointed in our last appointment here and it really saddens me to write this review because Gus truly looked terrific after his previous appointments here. Our puppy has - or should I say had - a beautiful fluffy coat. My husband and I wanted our pup's hair to just be a tad shorter. We did NOT want our puppy shaved. Well what we got was a shaved dog. And the way his face was cut doesn't even look great. Really upset over this, so no we will not be going back here. read more

I love this place. I used to take my elderly dog, all the way til her end of life, because she did very well here. My pup hated other groomers- got nervous, the shakes, tried to escape. She did not do much of that here. They were always gentle with her and very understanding of her. They were careful in their mannerisms while grooming her and also she had a hurt hip and they were sure to be gentle there as well. Easy to book. Local owner and business. Highly recommend! read more

THE OWNER WAS VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!!! RUN FAR AWAY FROM THIS PLACE. I WISH I WOULD HAVE READ THE REVIEWS BEFORE BRING MY PUPPY HERE!!!!! Our initial conversation was good. She was very polite. When my puppy got to her establishment her assistant had to call her to inform her of issue that arose. The owner was very short and snippy on the phone. when I got on the phone with the owner she was so unprofessional and aggressive . when I informed her of her tone. She apologized stated she was helping her mom with something. when I arrived to pick up my dog the owner was now in the store. I guess I asked one too many questions and she was yet again aggressive and unprofessional. This was an horrible experience for my first time here and my puppy first haircut. I WILL NEVER COME HERE AGAIN!!! HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE/CARE!!!! long story short when I picked up my Dog she increased the price from what she told me on the phone. I couldn't believe the owner would talk to her clients like that. read more

I came here for a groom once or twice when my dog's primary groomers were closed. I was nervous as my dog has a double coat (Shetland Sheepdog) , but she did a great job. From my understanding, Sandra herself groomed my dog. Their hours don't really work for me and I have a primary groomer, but I really do recommend this place as a close second! The only thing I would change is a better messaging/booking system. Prices are more than fair and they also sell products there. read more

I am EXTREMELY pleased with the grooming done on my shitzu today!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE GIZMO's HAIRCUT!!!! He looks beautiful. I have tried 5 groomers in the last year and a half, and was never fully satisfied with the haircut my shitzu got. I came in, asked for a trimming only with scissors, leave my dog as fluffy and possible, I asked for my infamous signatures "poodle feet" on gizmo, which is extra close trimming of the paws, and she did everything exactly how I wanted! I am ecstatic to have finally found a great groomer who understands what I want and has my dog looking great lol!!!! I would recommend this groomer to anyone! Very profesional, nice and prices are more than reasonable. Thank you again!! Happy holidays read more

Best groomer in Ridgewood and honestly best groomer I've ever had in general! Quality work and quality customer service. We've trusted them with grooming our dogs for the last several years and have been nothing but overjoyed! Kind, courteous, and professional. We love Sandra! read more

We could not be happier with the cut that our puppy got today at Dog Friendly Grooms. Everything from start to finish was top notch. Booking an appointment and the reminders Dog Friendly Grooms sends via text is so helpful. It was our puppy's first haircut, and you could tell once Sandra picked him up and showed him love, he was comfortable and in good hands. All in all the haircut took about an hour and a half. The atmosphere is very inviting, welcoming, and professional. We loved the added touch of the bandana around his neck when he was done. Adorable. We will for sure be returning in the next few weeks for his next haircut. Thank you Sandra for making our pup even cuter than he already was! I cannot recommend them enough. read more

I had a long time trying to find a good groomer for my Zeus until finally my son found Fog Friendly Grooms! I was afraid that they would not leave my puppy how I wanted. Today I took Zeus for the first to Sandra and her team. Sandra told my son & me you can leave come back in about an hour and a half or you may hang out , well my son & I decided to wait . To my surprise Zeus was done I'm exactly one hour . I must say I was very pleased with Zeus outcome . Definitely Zeus has found his new grooming place . They were so friendly and gentle with my puppy which made him feel so comfortable. Thank you to Sandra & her team . I will definitely come back !! I strongly recommend to bring your dog to Sandra you will not go wrong . Thumbs up for them. read more

I just wanted to share my experience since I am always the type to research a place via yelp reviews before coming in. I went here years ago with my old dog and had an amazing experience with grooming and nail trimming. Now that its 2023 I wanted to check the reviews and ofcourse our dogs are like our children, and upon reading it all I went to go for nail trims for my two italian greyhounds. I made Sandra aware my girl Sage had two surgeries on her right leg and is extreeeeemely anxious, nervous and her foot is super fragile she always lifts the leg still. She greeted me and sat down with my dogs before the nail trim, listened to what I had to say and took them to the back and had a lady help her to hold Sage. No screams or cries from neither pup - success! (they whined at home whenever I tried to do it). All in all, great experience! Dont let someones one bad review discourage you from coming in ! All of the ladies are super nice and they give lots of belly rubs and back scratches for our fur babies read more

If I could give 10 stars I would. I have a very nervous silky terrier who tends to get even more nervous around other dogs, or when kenneled. Sandra knew exactly how to handle Peanut. He was so relaxed around her and when I picked him up he came out wagging his tail, and looking so adorable with his new haircut. I can't say enough good things about Sandra and her staff. I highly recommend Dog Friendly Grooms to all dog owners whether you have a nervous dog or not. read more

Sandra did a fantastic job on Levi! She listened to all of our requests and helped us clarify what we were looking for in a cut--and it looked better than we could have expected! He thinks he's a total model now, and spent the rest of the afternoon galloping around & posing for photos. We're so pleased. read more

We've FINALLY found a groomer for Xena and we're ecstatic! Sandra is absolutely amazing! Both Dog & People friendly - she made my partner, our pup, and I feel welcome in her shop. Xena was very matted, yet Sandra was gentle and patient which allowed Xena to be calm. I was present for the first 20 minutes of her cut - allowed me to feel comfortable with leaving Xena in her care. THANK YOU Sandra! We will see you soon. read more

Horrific experience with our dogs - the groomer clearly had no professional experience handling our little dogs. They cut WAY too close to the skin and personal areas - to the point where our dogs developed serious rashes that had to get looked at by a vet. The groomer/owner denied ANY wrongdoing - this was our first time and now LAST time here. Do NOT go here if you care about your dog. I am in shock there are 5 star reviews for this place. read more

A first-time groom for our little Juno and they were great. Got the first appointment of the day and with her vaccines, they took her in no time. Took about an hour and a half. Super friendly and did a wonderful job on her coat. She left smelling like a flower. read more

Terrible place! I took my dog there recently for a full grooming session, the owner looked stress, she said she was overbooked. I had an appointment set up a week before but still that day it took almost 4 hours for her to call me to finally pick up my little dog. I noticed a day later my dog developed very dry skin, there are dry patches and dandruff all over her body....now I have to take her to the vet...please think twice before going there. read more

Called today and got my dog in for grooming the same day. Owner was super friendly and helpful. I explained how I like our pooch trimmed and she followed it to tee! He looks so cute and smells amazing! I will definitely be back! read more

I've tried so many different dog groomers! This is by far the best place yet. I called earlier in the week and was able to fit in to her schedule. She was friendly, asked questions, genuinely cares about dogs! The place is convenient on Forest and Grove right off Metropolitan, CLEAN, you can SEE where she grooms the dogs (which I really like), and she doesn't take 9 hours to groom them. I have two dogs a pug who just needs a bath, nails etc. (she also did his anal glands-AMAZE) and a shitzu mix who needs the whole works. Both were ready in a few hours, smelled and looked FANTASTIC, and frankly didn't want to leave! She is very reasonably priced and really nice! New to Ridgewood and I'm so happy she's here! read more

Sandra and her team work amazing. My dog struggles in social situations and was traumatized after receiving grooming services at petco.

I followed Sandra to Ridgewood from Bushwick and would probably follow her anywhere she takes her clippers. Sandra is as talented as she is kind and brings out Watson's natural beauty like no one else. Her space is neat, welcoming, and transparent; she has invited me to stand next to her while she worked so I could suggest final adjustments or ask questions and she is always making one last tweak long after Watson already looks perfect. Her grooms always last forever, too, growing out beautifully. read more

Do you want your dog to look like a dog actor? Smell more fragrant than a cucumber patch? If you do, then this is the groomer for you. Sandra, the owner, is kind and knowledgable. She followed our requests and treated the dogs so well that we will definitely be returning. Dog lovers can tell each other apart, and Sandra is certainly a dog lover. She took great care in grooming our two mini schnauzers. read more

this place is horrible. I took my dog here last week and I didn't have a chance to make a review but I have time now! the owner was so polite on the phone but in person she was such a jerk. I only ask for a trim and and nail clipped. Sandra had my dog looking like a hotdog. if You're not going to do the Service that is ask of u then dont do it at all. she had a attitude while I was trying to explain myself. she wouldn't give me a chance to talk. I still paid but she'll be damn if I would allow any of my friends to bring their pets here! read more
