I had brought my dog here 3 times and only once was the grooming what I asked for/ well done…read more The second time, they just cut shorter than I asked, so I gave them another chance. As soon as I walked in, the groomer was rude and didn't ask any questions about my dog or how I wanted his hair cut. When I picked him up, all of his hair was gone. Not only that, he had cuts all over his body and his skin was very irritated/ red/ itchy. I will not be coming back.

Thank you Lili for an AMAZING job with my two pups! I asked for a puppy cut with specific details…read moreand she delivered. Nails were trimmed nice and short (not too short) which I appreciate as some groomers are not as detail oriented. She was efficient, did a full bath, groom and nail trim for both my pups, and finished it all in 2.5 hours. I know my pups had a stress-free time at their appointment because one of them who typically doesn't eat hard treats, happily took them from one of the groomer when we were about to leave. Petite paws was easy to book with and had plenty of bookings available without having to book months in advance. Parking is limited in the small parking lot shared with other businesses, but there's a good amount of street parking. Thank you Lili, we will be back!

Larry has got to be the best groomer in all of Seattle!! Not only is he professional, responsive,…read moreand clean - most of all he CARES you can feel the love he has for animals of all kinds when you're in his presence. With decades of experience and expertise in the business, there is no one else I will trust with our cat, LuLu! Larry managed to squeeze us in today for a full body shave and made the whole experience stress free and comfortable for Lulu and myself . I recommend Larry to anyone who will listen!!! 10/10 5 stars go see Larry for all of your pet grooming needs!!!

Larry was great finding a time to fit my senior dog into his schedule. We talked about what I was…read morelooking for beforehand and the cut was perfect. My pup was more relaxed with Larry than at our old groomer. Despite him running way ahead of schedule and me running behind schedule, he was kind when I was a few minutes late to the appointment and didn't give me any grief which I appreciated. I am so glad I found Modern Pet.

We went to Amy for our 15-week old Bernedoodle puppy's first grooming experience…read more Positives: Amy obviously has a way with animals; Charlie came back from the session with his tail wagging, and he tried to run after Amy when she left! He smells amazing and his body hair looks great. She obviously made him feel comfortable. As you'd expect with mobile grooming, it was super convenient. She was also very communicative and helped us reschedule our appointment when our plans changed. The downside: We asked for very minimal trimming on his face, just enough so we could see his eyes again, and we lost a lot more fluff than we would've liked and are not a fan of his "haircut". All of his eyebrows are gone, and the blending around the face looks rough. I am sure this had a lot to do with him being a wiggly puppy, but we would've strongly preferred not to have this much hair removed in the first place, especially if the end result was going to be jagged. On top of this, I've found a lot of little snarls in his coat immediately post-groom, which is a little frustrating: we've been brushing him daily to prevent this, and his puppy fur hasn't been prone to tangling prior to this. Again, it's very possible he was getting too overstimulated for Amy to continue with brushing, but it would've been nice for her to tell us this. Overall, I think Amy is great for puppies and likely most dogs without a doodle coat, but I think we'll be going elsewhere for follow up visits.

I called them after frantically calling vets all morning and mistakenly said "Good morning! I'm a…read morenew patient and I was wondering if you all express anal glands" to which the only response was "WELL, we're a grooming service so we don't have patients" (or whatever nonsense) accompanied by a shrill and ugly laugh. No follow up comment. Only intentional condescension. I really do have thick skin, but I just found the lack of an actual response and lack of professionalism to be egregiously pretentious. I explained to her that I had been calling around all morning and excused myself for the slip of the tongue, I thanked her for her condescension and said goodbye. Take of this information what you will, but in my experience when a 15 second interaction (the fist 15, mind you) is all it takes for a potential client to take valuable time out of their morning (it's 9:22am) to leave you a 1-star review on yelp, you are a rinky dink business with rinky dink "adults" masquerading as professionals. In my experience, when a human's first instinct is fully and intentionally be condescending you while ignoring your polite request it doesn't bode well. I didn't write this review because I was offended by the immediate condescension to the first thing I said (an obvious and understandable slip of the tongue), but more so to let folks know my experience. Within 15 seconds I was left with ZERO confidence that they would care for my dog correctly and professionally. It's so hard to find good care for my dog, and I don't trust her with just anyone, and was reminded this morning that the industry is riddled with unprofessional amateurs. In this case, and my estimation, a self-absorbed novice. Take heed of the other 1 star reviews on here and they'll paint a clear picture of the person you'll be entrusting to care for your special loved one. (By the looks of it she's inexperienced and entitled at best, and ducks accountability where she can) P.S. if you've ever had pet care outside of Seattle you'll realize how subpar services are in Seattle. Like I get it, it's a paid service, but making everything so transactional is bad business and frankly unprofessional.

What a great experience! I have been looking for a good grooming salon for my 2 tiny dogs for quite…read moreawhile. This place exceeded all of my expectations. I was able to get an appointment for grooming and haircuts a week out - which is unheard of at many other places I had called. Katie was just great to deal with - the dogs loved her right away too - which is really saying something coming from my dogs. I picked the dogs up 2 hours later as agreed - they were both ready to go - looking and smelling great! I am delighted to have found this puppy salon!

BEWARE: I feel compelled to write down my experience and warn other people. I'm sure the owner is…read moregoing to do everything in her power to discredit my words, but if you value and cherish your dogs, do not take them here. I decided to try Velvet Paws after reading all the 5 star reviews. I made an appointment for my two mild mannered Cairn Terriers. I will never take my dogs here after what I would call an extremely unprofessional experience. Here are my observations: + I was quoted $65 per dog over the phone when I made the appointment, which is what I had paid other groomers in the past. When I met with Katie, I told her that one of my dogs had some matted fur, so she said that for both dogs it would be around $150. I assumed $20 more for the mats, which I am used to paying extra, but usually it's around $5-10. Okay, so not that big of a deal but still on the high side. And again, all those 5 star reviews led me to believe that it would be worth the extra money. + Katie also informed me that she doesn't take plastic. In this day and age I would call this VERY unusual, and she should have told me when I made the appointment. So now I would need to make a trip to the bank to take out cash. + Initially I was told that the dogs would be ready at 11 am, then I received a text that it would be11:30 am. I communicated via text that I was leaving an appointment and would be there closer to noon. I arrived at 11:55am. Katie's hours are 9-12pm. She also texted that it would be more than the $150 she quoted me because the matted dog took longer. And she left an extremely "annoyed" phone message wanting to know where I was... I saved it and replayed for my husband. You can hear the impatience in her voice. It was scary sounding and I started to worry for my dogs. + When I arrived, she told me that the price was now $165. for both dogs (because the matts took longer to brush out? so I ended up paying $35 more? that's insane, he's a 26lb dog). She seemed incredibly annoyed that I did not get there at 11:30, that I ran 25 minutes late, even though her limited business hours are listed 9am - noon. When I apologized, she said she had "other things to do", shuffled my dogs to me without ever asking what I thought of the cut (it was horrible, they basically both were shaved, and unevenly which my husband pointed out later). She also said that she had to muzzle one of my dogs when she brushed him out. That's a first. My dogs are 9.5 years old and have never been muzzled during a grooming session. I can only imagine he may have been sensing her impatience, anger or negative energy. + When I asked for change from $170 cash, I heard an audible sigh, yes....a loud AUDIBLE sigh (the price was so off from what I usually pay, that I wasn't tipping). She seemed irritated that I would ask for $5 back. Handing me the cash she never smiled, nor said "thanks for coming in" and more importantly, she never asked what I thought of their new "cuts" (basically they were both shaved like I said above). + My dogs collars and leashes were not put back on them. I've never been given back "loose" dogs. It seemed like she was super upset that I was not there right on the dot of 11:30 to pick them up even though her hours are till noon (and I was there before noon), and that this last courtesy was too much for her to do. She acted like waiting for me was the biggest imposition anyone has ever done, and had she been able to take plastic, I would not of had to make a run to the bank in the first place. I have two sweet Cairn Terriers, I will never take them here again. The place is sketchy from the outside, it looks like a dirty strip mall. Inside is not much better. And I don't believe all the 5 star reviews on this page. It's not sitting right with me, and feel compelled to speak up so that others know the truth. In closing, here are my complaints - Price (much higher than the $130 I was quoted. You would of thought one of my dogs was a giant ball of matts to charge $35 more than what she said on the phone.) - sketchy, strip mall place, with odd hours - Cash or check only - rude and unprofessional groomer - shaved, not a cut

We finally found our forever groomer! This was our first time using Pawgo, and we couldn't be…read morehappier with Roland. We were incredibly nervous because this was our Shih Tzu Tank's first grooming since losing his brother two months ago. Roland was a true professional--communicative, transparent about costs (no hidden fees!), and arrived early. He took the time to introduce himself to Tank and even showed us his van setup to put our minds at ease. Tank came out looking amazing, happy, and was even giving kisses! If you want 1:1 care from someone patient and professional, I highly recommend Roland. Thank you for taking such good care of our boy!

My 6 month old yorkipoo got his first grooming with Diane. Diane was attentive, calm, very good with my puppy and did an excellent job. Also, I appreciate her asking me what style of cut I wanted.
