I've been bringing my dog to this salon for about 5 years, and unfortunately the experience has gone downhill since the ownership/management changed in 2025. What used to be a reliable and professional place now feels completely careless and unprofessional. Over the past 6 months I've dealt with mixed-up appointments, an unfriendly attitude from the girl at the front desk, and multiple times getting my dog back with wet hair, knots still in his coat, and even small cuts around his ear. It's been disappointing to see the decline, but today's experience was the final straw. This morning I dropped my dog off at 8:20am for a BATH ONLY. I was told it would take about 3 hours, so I expected him to be ready around 11:20am. At 1pm I called to check in and was told they had fallen behind but he was on the table and they were "blow drying him now" and he'd be ready in about an hour (around 2pm). By 3pm I still hadn't heard anything, so I decided to just go there because there's no reason a blow dry should take two hours. When I arrived, the woman at the front desk had a bad attitude and immediately asked why I was there since no one had called me. She went to "check on him," but from where I was standing I could clearly see my dog sitting in a cage with his hair still half wet and no one working on him at all. Not only was I lied to earlier when they said they were working on him, but my dog had been sitting in a cage with wet hair for hours. Anyone who cares about dogs knows that leaving them like that can lead to ear infections and other issues. The best explanation I was given was that the person blow-drying him was "new," which does not excuse the lack of honesty, the poor communication, or the way my dog was handled. It's honestly sad because I supported this business for 5 years, but the service and professionalism have clearly deteriorated. I won't be bringing my dog back, and unfortunately, I can't recommend this place to anyone. If you value honesty, communication, and proper care for your pet, this is no longer the place it used to be. read more

ZERO STARS -- PLEASE DON'T BRING YOUR DOG HERE. I had the worst experience ever with this grooming salon, especially concerning my 6-year-old Goldendoodle. The day after her bath, she began limping and crying from her back paw. I checked her and found a cut on her skin, and within hours her paw became swollen and infected. I rushed her to the vet, and to date I've spent over $1,000 on treatment. Her nails were trimmed extremely short and dangerously narrow--so much so that the vet immediately asked, "Who did this??" He said whoever groomed her clearly did not know what they were doing. She ended up with a severe fungal infection, most likely from unsterilized tools used to trim or file her nails. Her paw became terribly swollen. She had to get an injection, antibiotics, antifungal shampoo, creams--you name it. She has been in pain for days, barely active, and it's taken a full week just to see slight improvement. Watching her suffer has been heartbreaking. What made the situation even worse is the lack of responsibility. I called the salon to explain everything, and was told the owner "wasn't available" but would call me back. That call never came. Not then, and not even after the severity of what I reported. For a business owner, that is unacceptable. And it's not just this visit. I brought both of my dogs--my Goldendoodle and my Labradoodle--and neither had their ears cleaned, their teeth brushed, or their anal glands done, even though these services were included. A month ago at a previous grooming appointment, my dogs' ears were also not cleaned and one of them didn't even have her nails buffed, which I mentioned to them at the time. To top off the chaos, when I arrived to pick up my dog, they almost handed me someone else's dog first. That alone tells you how disorganized they are. The staff told me they take in "around 50 dogs a day" (which is shocking) and tried to excuse the situation by saying the dog before mine "could have been sick." Completely unprofessional responses from start to finish. And once again--the owner NEVER called me back. For the price they charge, you expect safety, cleanliness, and trained professionals. Instead, my dog suffered a painful infection that could have been prevented with basic hygiene and proper grooming skills. If the owner truly cared, they would refund the bath and take responsibility for the vet bills caused by their negligence. Pet owners deserve better--and so do our pets. I will be sharing this experience on every platform I can because situations like this must stop. Our pets can't speak, but their pain speaks for them. BE CAREFUL read more

Loving Touch Grooming Salon - Tequila and oly after their grooming - Pet Groomers Near Me - Miami, Florida

The Groomer was great. The guy at the reception ... not so great. I made an appointment a week ago. After getting my dog groomed he told me OH We raised the prices and were told not to say anything over the phone. That's a crappy business practice...especially for a long time client. read more

I have had amazing experiences at Loving Touch grooming ! It has been almost 3 years that we have been visiting the saloon. From the moment I walked in, the staff (not only Gustavo who takes care of my frenchie, but also the lady in the front and the rest of the team as well) has always been friendly and welcoming. You can tell they truly love animals and treat them like their own.I took my dog Astro for a bath and haircut, and the results were fantastic. Not only did he look adorable, but he also smelled incredible. I appreciated that they kept me informed throughout the process and gave me tips on maintaining his coat.The salon's atmosphere is clean and pleasant, which made me feel confident that my pet was in good hands. I will definitely be returning and recommending Loving Touch grooming to all my friends with pets. read more

i'm not gonna lie the place was friendly. Everyone was nice but when it came down to the instructions that I gave them on how I wanted the dog, the instructions were completely ignored. I got back to the dogs like if they weren't really groomed. , we told them not to mess with the face, and when I got my dog back, their face was completely chopped when I mean, chopped it was not cut properly, and it looked like pieces were missing. I told not to touch their money pieces and now they're completely gone. I paid $187 for their money pieces to be gone and see no difference in them definitely not worth it. Definitely not going back again. They need to learn how to follow instructions especially because the dog belongs to me, not them if they were unsure they should've told me. I'm very upset about this. read more

I have a 10 month old golden doodle and I have been taking him to loving touch to be groomed by Gustavo since he was 4-5 months old. I love the care and friendly/welcoming environment of this business. The front desk lady is always friendly and attentive, even on the phone. My puppy Charlie always comes out super happy and looking super cute. I love my dog and I don't feel nervous or worried when I drop him off to get his haircut because I know he is in good hands. I also brought my friend's dog here another time to be groomed by Gustavo and again, amazing service. If you are looking for a place to groom your furry friends, this is the one! read more

First time I took my dog to get groomed with wash and cut at Loving Touch Grooming Salon. They had her ready as promised. The price was very reasonable. And my dog looks so cute when I picked her up.

Loving Touch Grooming Salon - Pet Groomers Near Me - Miami, Florida

Georgina is who I usually cut my dogs hair with, grooming has always been decent but this time around my dog had a few knots so they advised me it would be best to shave her totally. What I got back was my dog with a patch of hair that seems to have been ripped off from her stomach. I have waited a month before posting a review in hopes of her hair showing some sign of regrown but still nothing. Below I have posted photos of the day I picked her up and today. This shows lack of care and responsibility on the groomers side and my dog has never been the same since suffering that trauma. read more

I have been taking my dogs here for years. My poodle who is a pain in the butt cannot be caged. This grooming salon has always gone above and beyond to give me appointments to make sure she doesn't go in a cage and lets me wait in the waiting area so I can take her as soon as she is done. I have also taken my schnauzer here and they have done a great job. I live in homestead and will go out of my way to take my dogs here when needed. They do a beautiful cut on my Labrador as well! They are not over priced, treat the dogs great and do an excellent job. read more

I have been bringing my shi-Tzu here for 9 years. They are reasonably priced and I have never had an issue. I trust the stylist Amy , my dog has an eye injury so I asked Amy take care of her and explained all that she needed to have done or not done and she did exactly what I told her. The owners are always very polite, professional and great customer service. If you go be specify as to what type of shampoo to use specially if your pet has skin allergies, I always say to use hypoallergenic shampoos and not to put perfumes or bandanas on her. They have convenient hours, you can drop your pet off your pet as early as 8 am and pick up as late as 6:00 pm. FYI- They are closed on Mondays. read more

Loving Touch Grooming Salon - My sick dog got a much needed haircut today. - Pet Groomers Near Me - Miami, Florida

We took our dog Leo for the first time about a month and a half ago, and he was taken care of by Rafael. He was very attentive and took his time at the initial meeting to make our dog feel comfortable. He did a great job with his cut and we received a call that he was ready at the time stated. They were very busy but we were very pleased that our dog was well taken care of. Prices were reasonable and was actually better the bigger chain stores. read more

Loving Touch Grooming Salon - Pet Groomers Near Me - Miami, Florida

Have been taking my dogs here for years. Great place for a quick bath and mail trim. Only reason I did not give them a full 5 stars, is because my Pomsky most times comes back with all her undercoat still on her and even damp sometimes when she's not dropped off as early. Also if you do not ask them to trim their belly hairs they WILL NOT do it. So even if you aren't doing a hair cut, make sure to mention the belly/booty trim because it will not get done. Other than those two issues, great place for the price! read more

My 16-year-old Lhaso Apso is a bit temperamental and requires a lot of patience and caring. Loving Touch Grooming Salon was excellent in providing LOVING Touch. They established rapport with Shadow and took their time to ensure she was groomed like a princess. They also went above and beyond in keeping me informed of her progress throughout the morning. I highly recommend this grooming salon and we will be back! read more

So I was going to take my dog to this groomer, since it was recommended by a family member. Called & made an appointment on Tuesday for Friday with a gentleman. When I called to take him & confirm I was advised by a man (don't know if it was same one) that they must have forgotten to put me in the records & they were fully booked but they had a cancellation for Saturday & this is his words "they can do me the favor" I was taken aback at those words. If they made a mistake it's not a favor that they are doing. I said it's not a favor if they made a mistake but he then said " what do you want me to do about it' and again he used the words. "I'm doing you a favor". Again I was taken aback at his choice of words.Needles to say decided not to give them my business. If that is the way they treat a customer. Honestly did not want to give any star but had to in order to post this. read more

This is probably my favorite grooming place in town . I have 3 dogs and have had horrible experiences with groomers, until I met Rafael and his staff at loving touch .

They truly treat your dog as if it was one of their own . read more

Update: Rafael P, who claims to be an extremely approachable owner never even reached out to me directly after my experience at his salon. Instead, he had the groomer call me and ask me why I left a review, but at no time did they ask me how they could correct the situation. I was not going to take my dog back after what she went through. In reference to Rafael, and his approachability, this is not the first time that I had a dissatisfaction with this establishment. Previously, both my dogs anal glands became infected after having them expressed at this location, and I contacted Rafael, who did not even entertain my call. Instead, he claimed that there is no proof the dogs contracted the infection at the location. Both were fine and went in at the same time, both ended up in the vet. Coincidence? Once again, nothing was offered to correct my experience, however, I still went back. I'm never bringing my pets here, and I recommend you stay away and save yourself the money you'll later be spending at the vet. read more

It's a really good place. My dog Lily came out looking so different (in a good way!) and smelling amazing + she was happy and for me as a owner that's a must. Their prices are really fair. Bath + hair cut + nail clipping = only 40! that's amazing!! I left 5 dollars tip but i wish i would have given more! The only thing i did notice with my doggie was that she was having like dandruff but she's a really sensitive dog it could've been the shampoo. Definitely going back but next time i'm bringing my shampoo just in case but really really happy overall read more

If I could give this place 0 stars I would. I took my puppy here the first time and my puppy came out great. My mom took my puppy in the second time and he was paired with a woman named Felica or something similar to that. The woman didn't speak much English and instead of calling my mother or myself to ask us exactly what we wanted for clarification, she shaved my puppy down. She cut his whiskers, his neck, his butt, his testicles, everything. After speaking with the man on the phone he advised me that the owner must sign a consent form when the dogs are shaved down because the dogs experience trauma. We never asked for him to be shaved down so we never received a consent form. My poor dog is depressed, not playing, not acting the same. And on top of that she didn't advise my mother on the procedures. She didn't even return my dog herself. Someone else returned my dog to my mom after the hair cut was over. In addition, my dog was so thirsty from not having any water at all for hours he threw up after drinking water at the house from drinking it so fast. This place hasn't offered us any discounts or anything and has admitted to having multiple problems with this groomer in the past. Please help me spread the word, DO NOT TAKE YOUR PET HERE!! read more

Took my baby here since I wanted a change from my usual place thinking they will do a better job & pay my honey more attention since its a smaller place. She came out with uneven hair and I also found little bits of what looked to me burned areas I'm assuming from the shaver getting too hot. Overall I was very disappointed because even with Petsmart groomers I have never found anything on my sweet girl. My cue that i should have left & gone somewhere else started with The lady assigned to me, when she took my baby & didn't even try to speak to her... Just took her back like a piece of luggage. I should have had more sense & taken my baby back at this time....I really failed my lil' girl but next time I'll follow my instincts & take care somewhere else. Prices are reasonable $40 I believe for a cut / wash & basics. the 2 stars is for that & the owner seemed really nice and the place is accommodating with appointments. read more

I took my dogs here and they not only didn't cut their hair how I wanted, but they also cut my dogs eye. I had to take him to the vet and he now has an eye swollen shut and huge bump just under their eye. When I called them to notify them of the problem, they were kind enough to lie to me and say that they had not used clippers and it was not their fault....his nose was shaved and it was obviously not with scissors. And, there was nothing wrong with his eye before I took him there. I find this highly unprofessional and unethical, to lie to your customers and not accept responsibility. A real shame....to put the ones you care about tin hands that have anything but a loving touch. I'm now sitting here watching my dog suffer, with a swollen eye and barely moving. read more

Once I took my dog here, he was never the same. My dog has no personality problems, no anxiety, or aggression, he is crate trained and does not mind cages...but the day my dog got back from his services, he was sad and quiet and looked miserable. I went to pick him up and he screamed!! I had no idea if it was due to the grooming or perhaps if her got hurt while running around after, so a few months later I took him back and asked the groomers to be extremely careful, and guess what? It happened AGAIN. This time I knew it was their fault so I called asking for some sort of explanation. THEY WERE OF NO HELP. Lets just say, $800 later from meds and vet care, my dog is still terrified sometimes when I pick him up. Horrible experience. These people need to be shut down. The owner with the accent swears his staff is the best and that my dog is the one with the problem, completely laughable. read more

My dogs always look lazy, lethargic and sleepy when they leave this groomer, I've used them a few times and asked them if the give anything to my dogs and of course they deny it, but im certain they do. I've gone to two other groomers and my dogs always leave happy and hyper. My dogs use to freak out when we went to Loving Touch, I just figured they didn't want to get groomed. But now I take them to another groomer and there actually excited to go. read more

I took my cat in she had an appointment for 3:00 pm it was 5:15 pm and I called to see if they were done with her and the receptionist told me to come pick my cat up in 10 minutes. When I arrived my cat was not ready for pick up, the staff was very rude and to top it off they hurt my cat. She was bleeding from her paws!!! and had razor cuts all over her body. They didnt even clean her ears either. JUST HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Rude towards me as I come into the store. They thought my dog was a pitbull and automatically were being rude about situation. My dog is not a pitbull but I'm never brining her here again, when I came to pick her up They had her with a leash that when she moves it chokes her. They're so hostile towards pitbull and my dog wasnt even one. read more

You cannot go wrong at Loving Touch. I have been bringing my baby Bella hear since she was less than 1 and now she's turning 6. From the minute you walk in the door, you are greeted by the friendliest staff I have seen at groomers. They work with you to make sure you are getting everything you want. I like a certain haircut on my dog and a certain shampoo to use and they are completely understanding. A word of advice, if you are planning on taking your dog to get a haircut on a Saturday, make sure you have an appointment. Saturdays are their most busy day ever and there can be times that they are booked for the whole day. Also, if you are going in to drop off or pick up your dog on a Saturday, please have patience. Sometimes there are more owners in the front then hands to get the dogs. Trust me! read more

This place has been here forever because it is amazing! My girls always leave this place looking like superstars for a fair price..more than fair actually. Another thing I love is that my girls are never freaked out when I come pick them up. The truth is, Loving Touch does not need my help with this review because they have done everything right over the years. They are consistent, and friendly. It is truly a priviledge to have such a great business is Kendall. read more

Really great staff. The place is hidden in a small shopping center where Pollo Tropical is on 137 Ave. and SW 104 Street in Kendall. My wife and I are always happy with the cut our yorkie gets here. We also always choose a lady named 'Lucy' since she's experienced with Yorkies but the other staff is also great with them. The cut here is not cheap but they are the best in Miami that we have found so far. They are always busy and is best to make an appointment. read more

The baby is back. I tried another place closer to home but after the 2nd visit he did not want to return. I can only speculate as to why. I should have stuck to what I knew. (I've brought my previous pup here and he absolutely loved it). Of course they treated the baby wonderfully and he came back happy. Not trying to run out of the salon. read more

Ozzy loves this place and looks so handsome after his full service :) The owner and staff are just perfect!
