I do not recommend JK's Ruff House's. I stopped by a month before my dogs grooming appointment and was quoted 120 to 130 after showing photos and videos then upon her appointment after she was there for two hours, all they had done was bathed & dried her. I was told she had been put into a kennel for 30 minutes while they finished the previous dog and then they told me they refused to de-matte her because they don't de- matting at their establishment. It had only been one month since her previous Groom with Mobile Pet Shine. They do a great job. They're just very expensive so I was trying to save money. read more

After a bad incident with JK's ruff house I called and asked to speak to a manager/owner and explained that I wanted to understand a situation that ensued regarding my husky. They never called me back so I will just warn you about my experience. We used them 1x before and they wanted to shave her then too and we told them not to do any shaving except sanitary areas. They were extremely rude on drop off but polite upon pick up so we decided to them a second chance since they're a small business. TERRIBLE!! They tried to SHAVE MY HUSKY! My boyfriend handled the drop off and said the groomer was extremely rude and made comments about "oh wow she's in terrible shape"....I've attached a picture of her the day before her grooming appt below. After they took her back, we got a call where the groomer said my husky was crying too much to finish the shave and couldn't help her. THANK GOD SHE SPOKE UP!!! I am appalled at the negligence. Unless ordered by a vet for medical reasoning you should NEVER shave a husky!!! She is also blowing her coat, the tufts of fur come out with a gentle tug of your fingers. Which proves they didn't even try to brush her. This establishment needs to acquire some education and compassion. I would trust none of these people with my dog ever. We all deserve respect from people - and that includes our pets. read more

We've been taking our large dog here for a while. They always do a great job and seem to always have openings to get her in when we need to. We recommend. read more

We have always had great experiences with this groomer. My one dog has been a bit iffy with other dogs and they have made sure to keep her from other dogs. They allow dogs to walk around while there which isnt great for all dogs, but they can make accommodations. I love Julianna, she has always been incredibly sweet to my dogs. I had a standard poodle and small poodle like dog and as seniors they needed special attention and tlc. read more

Rude staff, unprofessional and lazy. They asked to shave our mini doodle because he had a few small Matts in his coat. When we told them not to shave him they asked us to come pick him up and declined our business. We were able to comb out the matts ourselves at home with relatively little effort and no discomfort to our pet. Considering they charge around $100 for a grooming on mini doodle under 25 pounds... I expect much better service. I'll be taking my business somewhere else and I'd highly recommend finding a more professional groomer for anyone considering this place. read more

Used to really like them, but was switched to a new groomer (Holly) after the groomer I liked left, their prices raised, and the new groomer is pretty defensive/aggressive. I always book for the same time, and didn't notice my time had changed (because it never has) and Holly was pretty defensive and aggressive when I explained that I knew I made a mistake in confirming a time I couldn't make, but that since I book by saying "same time in four months" it was a surprise when the time changed. Holly tried to go back and forth with me (even looking up my old booking times to try and confirm I'm wrong, but dropping it when I was right), and really harped on how I'd made a mistake, which is very true, but so did JK Ruff House in booking me for a new time without telling me they were booking me for a new time. We're all human, we both made mistakes--but why pick at someone instead of just apologizing for your part in the mistake and working to find a solution? Holly hadn't even booked my changed appointment, so I'm not sure why she felt like she needed to defend anything at all. There's no need to get into fights with a business, I can just be grateful for their past work and now go to someone a little more understanding and flexible. read more

Messaged the business on YELP and received a response almost immediately! They got me in that week! For my two new shih tzu puppies. They are 3.5 months old and I was nervous to take them anywhere! Let's just say, when I picked them up, they were scratching at the gate to go back in and be with the groomers! It was snowing and I was u sure about the appointment and if they would be open- I received a text from Kerry first thing in the morning and we pushed the appointment up an hour. I was SO pleased with this place. They were knowledgeable and genuine, and made me feel so comfortable. They even gave me exercises to do so I can get the puppies used to getting their faces clipped. Best part of all, they were efficient. Both pups were ready to go in an hour. I also appreciated the reminder appointment texts! read more

Took our dog there and it depends on who is working. One tech is great and others are lazy and only wanting to shave my dog. Have to find a different place as the lack of consistency is not ok. The techs that are lazy and not wanting to work on the dogs should just go get a job shearing sheep read more

Rude staff and extremely unknowledgeable about specific breeds grooming requirements. Do not take your pet here if you love them. This place should be put out of business. I'll continue to leave negative reviews until I see these doors close for good. Ya'll don't even care about animals. Remove yourself from this industry. read more

We've been going to this place for a while now. Every time we go they never do what we ask. Simple things like don't cut my dogs eyelashes or leave her head fluffy. Despite this, we continued to go since they were simple things we could get over. The last time we went they accidentally cut a mole on my dog and it started bleeding. They had her for hours longer than they should have and wouldn't tell us why until we picked her up. Again, we were pretty understanding it was an accident and went back. Yesterday they ended up cutting her TOUNGE and had to take her to the emergency vet! Both times we were charged the full amount and just given a simple apology. Definitely won't be going back. read more

We had a pretty terrible experience with Holly, who was callous and rude after we had to miss an appointment due to my father-in-law getting run over by a car while walking his dog (he later died of his injuries a couple of days later). We called to explain what happened--and that we were at the hospital with him all night + had to cancel--and instead of being understanding, she began to be extremely rude and disrespectful. She lied about our past history to "prove" a point that we were regularly 5-minutes late to dropping off (we weren't). All in all, her heartlessness didn't make me feel comfortable leaving my dog in her care. read more

Holley was so friendly and accommodating. She was up front with the pricing and asked for specifics on how we wanted our guy groomed. I love that the dogs are only there for their grooming period and not kenneled all day waiting. He came out looking great and we are so thankful to have found them. read more

d s . I am so glad that I had been forced to find a new groomer at the urgency of my 2 labradoodles both being under groomed. My previous groomer needed time to deal with hat I had been going to her for 4 or 5 years. I followed her to a new shop after the first place closed. Then tried to follow her again to a 3rd location, but it didn't work out. I miss the original groomer because she was a delightfully kind person. We were friends. However, going to JK's Ruffhouse on 44th has proven to be a huge step up. Not only is Kerry a better Groomer, he is very compassionate person and he has made me feel like an old treasured friend from the first visit. I think he's the best groomer I've had, certainly the best overall groomer that I've taken any of my dogs to. By overall, I'm including his calm, easy going "dog side" manner, not just toward the dogs, but also with me, read more

Kerry is hands down the best dog groomer I have ever taken my dogs too. He knows exactly what I like and makes my long haired collie mix, Sufjan look handsome every single time (and he has alot of hair!) I wouldn't dream of taking either of my dogs anywhere else. read more

I have been taking my Shih tzu, Riley to Kerry for the past 5 years! He does a wonderful job on the grooming , no matter what time of year. I inherited my aunts Shih tzu last year, now both my boys go to JK Ruffhouse. Kerry has always done a fantastic job on grooming my boys. I highly recommend him! read more

I've been taking my pup to Sam at JK for several years now. He loves going there to see Sam. She does a fantastic job, he always looks great. She is great with the dogs and the environment is very calm and organized, which the dogs prefer. If you need a A+ groomer, give Sam a ring. Be patient, shes busy and it may be a bit to schedule you in. But oh so worth the wait. read more

JK's Ruff House did an awesome job with our pup Denali! They were flexible with scheduling an after-work groom, and she is super soft, smells wonderful, and cleaned up but just as fluffy! It's also pretty affordable. This is the second location in the Highlands from the first location on 6th, and we're happy to have them in our neighborhood! read more

We love Jk's Ruff House, and we love Kerry Martin! The shop is clean and bright. The people are always so friendly. Our mixed breed, super scared of all humans, rescue dog, Porter, gets to socialize with other pups while he is there instead of spending time in a cage. Porter is a basset hound + shih tzu + corgi + cocker, so he is a tricky guy to groom. Kerry always gets it right, and Porter smells, looks, and feels fantastic after his appointment. We drive from Littleton to this shop, because we trust them and Porter gives it two paws up. Thank you, JK's! read more

I have been taking my dog here for over a year and they are amazing! He always come out looking great, and smells so good. We can always get an appointment when scheduled ahead of time, and Maria is super easy to work with. My dog is a little over excited, but they do great with him anyways. I bought the CBD treats for him, and those seemed to work really well for him while he gets blow dried. Overall, I love bringing my dog to JK's Ruff House. read more

He did an unethical haircut to my rescued Great Pyrenees One I feel he should lose his license for. $250. For what? He said he had to use a "surgical blade" to cut it with? Who does that. He should also know that Pyrenees can't be shaved like this due to their coat. The talk with him after I saw my dog went- him saying he has pictures of her Matted fur and is going to take me in for animal abuse. And then hung up. Please never do business here. read more

No joke, I've never had a better experience. I brought my dog in a little early and there were so many friendly faces waiting for him. I was pleasantly surprised he could wander around and play while waiting, because he can get a little anxious in the kennel at the groomer's. Maria was so informative on expectations with look, style, timing, etc. the cost was very reasonable and Cooper looks AMAZING!! read more

We've been taking our two labradoodles (different types of coats) to Kerry (JK Grooming/JK Ruff House) for the last 7 years. I cannot say enough about how amazing Kerry has been to us (and our dogs). Whether the scheduling or the care, he (and they) have always been awesome to us. JK has always been one of the top groomers in Denver. So good in fact, we've been willing to drive from SE Aurora to Denver/N Denver to get them groomed. Their policy of not caging the dogs is often overlooked, but that in and of itself shows just how much they care about ensuring the 'clientele' is looked after. I'm shocked at the few negative reviews I've read. I can honestly say in the 12-15 times we've taken our dogs to JK, we've never been upset/disappointed or had reason to complain. Our dogs have never looked better than when they've been groomed by JK. read more

moved here to Denver recently. My lil baby girl need a spa day and groom . found this place close to my new home. Took my baby girl in there and immediately knew I found the spot. Never have I seen my baby so comfortable at a new place. Her Groomer Hailey is awesome. My lil girl took off in the pooch area and I was shocked as she NEVER acted like that at her groomer of 6 years. as I left I could see her playing happily. When pick up time came around she didn't even notice I was there, she was having too much fun. Her groom was amazing. I just can't get over how wonderful this experience must have been for her, she didn't want to leave. I 100% recommend this place . I'm still amazed at how comfortable my baby girl acted there and how awesome of a job Miss Hailey did. THANK YOU read more

My little Fiona has been seeing Kerry for about 3 years and he has never let us down! She absolutely loves him. She is not good with other dogs, but he makes sure to accommodate her anxiety needs. She also has a backup groomer named Maria who does a fabulous job as well! We'll never go anywhere else, I always feel safe when leaving my baby at JK's Ruff House and JK Grooming in Denver. read more

We truly feel lucky to live so close to JK's Ruff House. Kerry has always fit us in last minute and really helps our dog Eddie feel calm. We have a dog with tons of fur! And I was shocked at how much hair they got off of him for the spring season. Eddie has received so many compliments on his shiny, soft, fur coat. It means a lot that Eddie is happy to see me when I return but to hear he interacts acts so well with the other dogs while he waits for my return, it say something about the start at JK. I have only experienced professionalism, kindness and appreciation for our patronage. Thank you Kerry and the JK staff for al you do to care for our sweet fur-baby! read more

I've tried several groomers, spanning 2 dogs, and 18 years. This was my first time at JK's, and without question the best cut my pups ever had. Very friendly, but more important, very good. My neighbor recommended them to me, and I will do the same when asked. read more

I have been taking my West Highland Terrier, Betty White to JK's Ruff House for grooming for some time now. Betty only sees Kerry for her grooming, and while I'm sure everyone else there is great, I wouldn't dream of having anyone else bathe and groom her. I couldn't be happier with the time, attention and love that she receives when she is with Kerry. Betty is always a little timid and scared when we enter the shop, but Kerry immediately seems to make her feel at ease, which in turn, lowers my anxiety in leaving her there as well. Kerry has made it clear that he loves my dog and his excitement upon seeing her always reaffirms for me that I've finally found the perfect groomer for my pup. I have tried several other groomers in the past and there was always just something missing. Whether the cut wasn't right, the groomer wasn't friendly, or Betty was returned to me in what seemed to be a terrified state. Kerry has solved all of these problems and I appreciate him so much. I have never had an issue with scheduling and have always been able to get her in right away, even if I forget to schedule in advance. Kerry has even come in early on Saturdays to accommodate my schedule and always does the job quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend Kerry Martin and JK's Ruff house to any of you looking for a groomer who will take amazing care of your pup. read more

Epically, memorably rude, terrible service. I took my golden in for the second time for a bath and pointed out that last time he came back with lots of mats. I don't like my golden trimmed so I scheduled for a bath as my 40+ years of golden ownership told me that brushing them was part of the gig. "No", I was told by this incredibly snotty 20 something IN FRONT OF THE OWNER, "we only brush them out if you do a full groom." Fine, do that. "That requires a completely different kind of appointment and you will have to reschedule." Uh, no. Instead of explaining the difference, which I was more than happy to pay for, and taking the dog and fitting him, they chose to toss me off. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. There are WAY better options out there. read more

My dog has always had issues with groomers. He had a bad experience at a groomer when he was young, plus he is a mini schnauzer and he is very old. This makes for him acting very snippy and angry at the groomer. Julianne worked so patiently with my dog and was very kind to him. She let me stay with him the entire time to make sure he was comfortable. He came home clean, looking good, and happy (or at least as happy as he can be after being groomed!). I was so nervous about finding a groomer in Denver, but I don't have to worry anymore. Thank you SO much, Julianne! P.S. I was there when the below one-star reviewer came in with the golden retriever. She did speak to Julianne, who IS the owner, and Julianne was calm, polite, and totally reasonable. Just saying. read more

We made the mistake of returning to JK's Ruff House on 44th & Tennyson to groom our dog after they previously ignored our grooming style directions. This time they have ruined something beautiful that will never grow back. Our dog used to have a gorgeous tail, with the multiple colors from her puppyhood as she grew up. Despite our very explicit requests -- repeatedly -- that they not touch her tail, they cut off all of the different colors. I would normally say it's just hair so no big deal, but this is not something that will grow back as she is now older and her hair color has totally changed. I realize this is just dog grooming, and she's not dead or maimed, but something really beautiful is permanently gone. read more
