I have a samoyed pup who I've had people messed up before. So I'm pretty leery when people tell me they can groom her no problem. I called and talked to Carolyn, she was super sweet, but I knew not to judge till I got my fluffy marshmallow back from the appointment. I dropped her off, ran around town for about 4 hours, and I swear my baby had never looked so pretty. She seriously looked like she was getting ready for an Instagram photo shoot, which of course I did lol. Price for what I got was great. I definitely recommend these guys, and Carolyn is my pups new best friend. I'll definitely be coming back.

This place was getting ready to close and I explained the situation and they agreed to take my dog and help him. I was greeted at the door by a very nice lady and I can't see enough good things about this place. They've seem very friendly and very gentle with the dogs and if I was in need of any grooming in the future or if I could recommend this place I would recommend 1000 times over. It seems like this that's stick out with a place and they went above and beyond.

We took our two small fur babies Tokyo and Delilah in for cuts. They're a bit older, Delilah has lymphomas and Tokyo can be aggressive around other dogs, but in her hands along with the rest of the staff, they're were calm and friendly and their cuts looked great, very well balanced across their bodies maintaining a subtle fluffiness we like our dogs to have. They're reasonably priced and tips for their staff are deserved. Five stars--highly recommended. Call ahead to book!

Hair B&B is my go-to anytime we go out of town and can't bring the fur babes!! I also watched dogs…read morefor a little while and had never let anyone watch my younger one so my standards are high. Hair B&B was the first place I was comfortable with leaving and truly knowing that my dogs were going to have a blast until we got back. I have always been very particular and worried that many people/places don't treat your dogs the way you want them to or they never get to play, but with Hair B&B that is not a worry and it honestly is so nice to know that while you are gone (my babies are like my children obvi!) Everytime we come back, they seem sooo happy and tired! Crystal also comes and picks them up right after we leave and drops them off for us to be with them right away when we get back which makes everything SO convenient!! There is always a spot for them even when I ask last minute. I could go on an on clearly, but we love this place - so thankful for y'all and loving our babies like they are your own!!

I started this service in December and have had two service days so far. Both times, the…read moretechnicians came on a different day than scheduled without notifying me of the schedule change in advance. I've tried calling the office multiple times and the voicemail box is always full. The one time I did get through to leave a voicemail, they never called me back (its been over a week at this point). I am unable to make any changes to my account via the client portal (e.g. change plan/frequency of service, change service date) so without being able to get anyone on the phone either, its kind of impossible. Moments ago, I got a live person on the phone but it seemed like they were from a call center and not the actual Sparks office so they were going to pass my message along. They weren't actually able to do anything for me themselves. While the service itself is fine, when they come, its not worth the frustration. I have asked to cancel my recurring service completely and will look for another provider.

The good - the female facilitator and the other gentleman were very sweet. They gave a great tour, and were always happy to take calls or answer questions. I think this place is great for folks who work on USA Parkway, or folks who are content with quick exchanges with no feedback. The bad - Unfortunately most of my drop offs consisted of dealing with Thomas, the owner. He made it clear pretty early on that he thought me and my dog had "anxiety issues". When I picked my dog up each day I liked to ask how her day was, as I'm genuinely interested (I love my dog lol) and it's nice to make small talk. Thomas took this interaction as me thinking my dog had a problem, and would make comments about my dog having some type of issue. He constantly rubbed me the wrong way, saying it was incorrect for me to say goodbye to my dog as it would increase her anxiety, and mentioning that I shouldn't call in to check on her. The final straw was today, Thomas had made a comment to my husband yesterday that my dog was "nippy" with him, and I wanted to talk to Thomas about it directly as I was genuinely concerned about my dog showing potential signs of aggression. Upon me asking him about it, he immediately let me know I should probably find another daycare, as I'm the owner he deals with that has the most issues or concerns. I tried to amicably let him know I'm only trying to get more information on the situation, but he kept insisting I go somewhere else since I'm not happy. This was a totally unprofessional way to speak to me, and as a paying customer I think it's well within my right to ask second level questions about my dog's behavior. I will be taking his advice, and going to a different daycare that doesn't view me as a problem customer for checking in on my dog or asking about her at pickup. 2 stars because they helped us out during days we needed dog care, and I'm appreciative for that!

We boarded our 2 dogs for 5 nights. When we picked up our dogs, Mia our 3 yr old was reverse…read moresneezing really bad. We were told she does that when excited. She has never done that!! They then rushed us out as fast as they could. When we got home we knew something was wrong with Mia. She had zero energy and that reverse sneeze was horrible. The next day we called our vet and made an appointment for Mia. The vet on the phone said it's most likely Kennel Cough and we had to wait in our car until they cleared the area for Mia to come in. Kennel Cough is highly contagious. Dogs can get it even though they are vaccinated, which Mia is. After examining Mia the vet confirmed she had Kennel Cough and prescribed an antibiotic for her. She didn't start to get back to normal for six days. Finally she's back to being our Mia. Our other dog, Emma, was ok when we picked her up but started showing signs of Kennel Cough the day after pick up. We called the vet and got meds for Emma. Emma's illness was not as bad as Mia's so she recovered much quicker. The owners have a new puppy in the office area and everyone going in and out are exposed to whatever illness the puppy has. The owners even mentioned the humidifier in the office was for the puppy due to breathing issues. I'm guessing the puppy spread Kennel Cough throughout the whole facility. We tried contacting the owners but it kept going to voicemail. We left a message and have never heard from them. That's no way to run a business. I will never bring our dogs there again and will never recommend them to anyone. I'm actually surprised they have been in business for as long as they have been. If you cherish your pups find another place that actually cares.

For disclosure, I'm not a Pinky's customer, but the review below is relevant nonetheless…read more I also witnessed the Pinky's Pooper Scooper truck at the bus stop this morning. The pickup truck came around the corner from Capriolate to Abbotswood, and in my opinion was driving both too fast and unsafely. As the truck rounded the corner, the vehicle began to sway, and water sloshed out from the left portion of the pickup bed. This appeared to cause it to rock back and forth. It appeared to me as if the driver was having trouble controlling the vehicle after turning the corner. This all happened at an elementary school bus stop with children around. It was witnessed by multiple parents. Had any children been crossing the street, this could have been much more serious. Pinky's - talk to your driver, keep the speeds down to safe levels, and try to do better in the future.

first went to PJs 13 years ago with my first goldendoodle. We started in the puppy social classes…read morewhen he was 9 weeks old as he had his first set of shots. We went onto do 3 levels of classes with him. Classes were hands down the best investment we made for him, and he went on to live a wonderful fear-free life. I attribute his high quality of life to his basic training classes and the time we put in when he was a puppy. He learned from a very young age how to settle and be calm in lots of different situations. He learned to trust our directions which kept him safe. Puppy social is in my opinion one of the best classes to put a young puppy in. They get to meet other dogs and people in a safe environment, and the puppies teach each other soft bite and learn how to be social. We recently brought a new puppy into our lives. I love the structure of Pjs classes where your puppy is with the same dogs for the 6-week duration. The happy little puppies can all see each other during the class at Pjs, no barriers (unless required to reduce stress of the pet). I like the scaffolding approach that PJs classes offer. You build the dogs' confidence and skills up in a logical way for them to learn. Plus, the puppies are all watching each other learn the same things. It's adorable. Our new puppy has done several levels of classes at Pjs' beautiful new facility in Sparks and HE LOVES IT. He just completed his AKC Canine Good Citizen, we can now consider therapy work down the road with him. He is so excited to get in the door for any play group I take him to and to his classes. We absolutely loved Rally O with Susie, she is amazing. We have referred Susie to friends with some rescues for consultations and they have been super happy. We will complete all the classes PJ dog training offers, because our dog just loves to learn, he really likes to use his brain. He exudes happiness when we get to class. Thank you, PJ and Susie, for helping us raise a happy confident dog yet again and offering such great classes. Highly recommend Pjs, they have so much experience and are CCPTD certified. They also give you time at the beginning of any class for a quick discussion on any "challenge areas". You learn so much to help you understand your dog's behavior. All classes use positive reinforcement. You learn to build a trusting relationship with your furry family members from a place of respect and love. The facility is always so clean, and they take excellent care in making sure your puppies are safe and not exposed to any bugs. We have never had any problems. 10 stars from us!!
