Can't recommend them enough for a quick, cheap, stress-free nail trim. Our two very high maintenance pups do not let anyone trim their nails but they have no issue here. It took 6 people (not even exaggerating!) at PetSmart to finish trimming our English Bulldogs nails. At Hot Rod, they come out in front of the desk and trim nails at the dog's level right in front, instead of putting them on a table and/or tying them up, which I think really helps. $5 cash only, such a good deal! read more

Took my dog here last year. Great experience and great job. Then took her here today. Could hear a groomer in back yelling at a dog for being a dog. Then they told me they had no clue how long my dog would be there read more

I tried Hot Rod Dog Grooming for the first time yesterday and OMG I could not have been happier! I brought in a Big Bones Canine Rescue Dog that is currently seeking foster or adoption and needed to be cleaned up! The facility is very cute and clean! I met the owner and all of the staff were very friendly and helpful! They had this little dog in there named Big Mac who had its hair colored to look like "leg warmers" and I will post pics with this review! You have to see it! So cute! I will definitely be going back and I can see why they won Best Grooming in Windsor! Call ahead to make an appointment as I learned walk in is only for self service and nail trims! read more

I am sad to write a one star review of them but I feel it's for the well being of all our animals. I got both dogs nails clipped and anal glands done. THEY DO NOT WEAR GLOVES AND USED HER UNGLOVED, unwashed dirty hand in their butts. That is completely insane. Unsanitary and gross!!!! read more

I was not really impressed. I scheduled an appointment for my doodle's first cut, and when i dropped him off they told me they probably wouldn't cut his hair all the way because it was his first time there and he might not like it. I told her to please try because it is a pain to get him over to their shop (and he is the most calm and low-key dog on the planet) but when I came back 4 hours later they had indeed only trimmed his face and bathed him for $40-ish dollars because they said he didn't love the clippers. They also don't take credit cards, which is another inconvenience. Positives: the girl at the front is friendly, and they let the dogs hang out together while they wait for their cuts. They seem to be well liked and enjoy a good reputation, which isn't easily earned with pet owners. Negatives: didn't seem to try too hard to do the services i requested, and no credit cards. If my next experience there is better I will update my rating, but I think 3 stars is accurate for my first experience. read more

Nail trims are my pups least favorite thing and she has the tendency to get snippy and sometime even a little aggressive. So now it's her and my worst fear. I have had anxiety about this for weeks but knew it needed to be done. The lady who helped me today was fantastic. She was kind and patient with my very nervous dog. She coached me through it and was so sweet with my pup. I was very grateful for her expertise and patience with us today. I will definitely be back read more

We take our little schnauzer there and Becca does our dog and she is great with Kahlua's! Would not go any where else.

I am livid after watching one of the groomers pick my dog up by the neck with a slip lead leash to lift her out of a holding area and put her on the ground. She is a 10 pound yorkie that we rescued from a puppy mill last year. I have communicated to them that she is skittish from abuse and they assured me they had no problem with her. If they will pick her up like that in front of me, what will they do when I am not there? My dog has a knot on her neck from this. I have to take her to the vet to check for a collapsed trachea now. When I told them to never do that to her again, they were not the least bit apologetic. I will never go there again. read more

Being new to the area I needed to find a groomer for my little long haired kid. All the local groomers in Windsor were not taking new clients. Until I called Hot Rod. I dropped the kid off and two hours later I got a call saying she was ready to pick up. The work was amazing, she did indeed smell great, and had a small pink bow on her head. To top it off as a great experience, the price was also great! Take your dog here. Now. read more

This place takes forever to get my dog done. She is a small bichon and sometimes I find her taking 4-6 hours. You never can reach them to schedule appointments and also they do tend to treat their customers rudely and very unprofessional. I had complained before and they tried to make me feel bad about my complaint and ended up telling me, " You can go find yourself a new groomer." And did not give me the chance to respond. That is fine by me, they aren't the only groomer around. I would much rather go somewhere else that values their customers. read more

I have a regular groomer in town but the prices just keep skyrocketing so decided to try Hot Rod. I dropped my dog off, told Erin how I wanted him cut and a little over 2 hours later, she called that he was ready. When I arrived, I told her I wanted some areas a little shorter, so, with a smile and a nod, she put him back on the table and within 5 minutes, he was perfect! The staff is very professional and worked "above and beyond" to accommodate my family. Will definitely use again. Thanks so much! read more

Since we've had our golden doodle we have had nothing but bad haircuts from various places. We tried Hot Rod today and they nailed it! Our first good haircut since we got him and it was reasonably priced to boot! So happy! read more

I have taken my dog to them pretty much her whole life. She'll be 11 in May. She is a Lhasa apso bichon mix...lots of hair! I also have a golden doodle who is 5, who I wouldn't take anywhere else. I can always schedule them to have an appointment at the same time. The time both dogs take is anywhere from 3-4 hours. They send out reminder/confirmation texts and keep good notes for each pet and our specific instructions. Scheduling is no problem. I always leave a message and they call me back within 24 hours. Thank goodness for that! I wouldn't want them leaving my dog on the table to pick up the phone. I initially chose them because they had fun style and my dog wouldn't be locked up before and after her haircut. I've never been disappointed with their cut. Also, I live in Denver and gladly make the drive every couple months because I know that they get treated well when they are there and that I can trust them with the care of my pets. read more

I am new to Windsor and I was concerned with getting a good, reasonably priced groomer who likes dogs. I have a German Shepherd and a Mini Labradoodle. I checked around and was amazed at how much groomers were charging-way more than I was paying in Denver. Then I found Hot Rod. Jessica, and everyone who works there obviously, loves dogs and my dogs weren't the least bit traumatized when I returned. They did exactly the cut I wanted on my mini and they were done in 2 1/2 hrs. My Denver groomer had them all day! Hot Rod has a new customers in my dogs. read more

They broke my dogs leg! This happened a couple of years ago but I'm definitely still bitter. I took my dog in for a haircut and got a call 2 hours later that she was limping. I picked her up and took her home to get a closer look and saw that her foot was dangling, DANGLING! I took her to the vet next to hot rod dog. They had to sedate her and put her in a cast. 500 dollars! I went back to the groomer to tell them her diagnosis and how much I had to spend. They turned a blind eye and weren't even one bit apologetic! They didn't have any insurance to cover it and didn't even make an effort to compensate me for my troubles. Shit, I would have been happy with a free haircut. Needless to say I walked out and never looked back. This may sound harsh, but they hurt my baby and can burn in hell for all I care. It is my life's goal to put them out of business. All in all DO NOT GO HERE! read more

EXCELLENT service!!!! Everyone was so friendly and took care of our pups and cat with wonderful care. We have a big dog that has a bad back leg, when they groomed him they gave him breaks. We can't say enough about their services except "thank you". read more

DO NOT BRING YOU DOGS OR CATS HERE!!! I brought my husky here to be groomed but ended up taking her home. When I dropped her off I made it very clear that she cannot be with other dogs. When I got back to my car I realized that they hadn't asked for any shot records. I went back in with the shot records and I was told that they only needed the rabies tag. I told them that I am a vet tech student and have studied these laws and that they have to have proof of rabies. The groomer told me that this is how all grooming salons operate. That is not true. I've never had a grooming salon not ask for at least proof of rabies. I said I wanted to take my dog home and when they brought her out to me Chaska was in a group of dogs. I told them that I had specifically told them not to have Chaska with other dogs. The groomer then yells saying that I signed the list saying that it was okay to have her with other dogs. My name and signature is no where on that list because I did not want her with other dogs. Talk about a dangerous situation and the risk of my dog being taken away from me and out down if something happened because of their negligence. The groomer was completely unprofessional and told me to have fun finding another groomer. Oh I will. I will take my dogs somewhere that is safe for them to be. The owner did call me to clear things up and said that she would talk to the groomer about what happened but I am still not comfortable bringing my dog anywhere near Hot Rod again because of what happened and because even the owner insists that a rabies tag is proof enough of rabies, its not, people switch collars and tags on dogs all the time so they can get away with not vaccinating. Plus it was $20 more than places I have taken her to in the past. read more
