The last few times I have gone the bill has been creeping up. Today, I dropped my dog at 10am and got a notification at 12:04 that she was ready. When I went to pay I was charged $108 for the groom and an additional $30 for a dematting fee. I have never been charged that and Ruth and Jeff would have contacted me first. It seems now they just add in hidden costs. The thing of it is my dog was shaved and was only there for two hours. I asked to speak to the owner and Luis came over. He told me he was not the owner but he had to brush her underneath for 30 min. Keep in mind she was in only there two hours. I told him I was unhappy and she looked shaved and a $30 fee was crazy. I told him if I paid that we would not be back. Luis was rude and could have cared less. Well I paid the bill but you lost a loyal customer. I have referred multiple people here as well. Best of luck we will not be back. I've attached a photo just to show how short her haircut was.

Perhaps she is confusing me with another customer but it's too late now. So I took my little girl, a golden doodle, to be groomed about 3 to 4 weeks ago. Alicia wasn't having a very good day because she was in an auto accident the day before. She did her best and I was very pleased but she did state that she had a problem with my dog with the dryer that she used. Her groomer up north never had a problem with her so I called her to see if she ever had that problem. She told me that my girl did not like the dryer so she used what is called a happy hoodie over her ears so the dryer is not as loud. Alicia said that she would have one next time I brought her back and seemed as though she was more than happy to have her come back. We had an appointment today and I sent Alicia some pictures of how I would like her to be cut down since I was going to have her done a little shorter now that it's getting warmer out. She was very nasty, very unprofessional, and actually told me that we should just cancel the appointment and I should get another groomer! Sorry to say she's lost a good customer. I wasn't sending pictures because I was criticizing her work I was sending them so she would get a better idea as to how short I wanted her haircut which, most groomers like to have something to go by. Can't understand why she has such a nasty attitude but I'm definitely glad that my little girl won't be handled by someone like that again.

He usually goes in for a bath and nail trim, and each visit leaves his coat clean, well-brushed, and under control. They handle heavy shedding well without overdoing it, and they always finish him off with a bandana, which is a nice touch. Customer service has been reliable and efficient over the years. Drop-off and pick-up are straightforward, and they stay close to the estimated timing. The staff handles Maxim appropriately, which is important for a larger, high-energy breed. The shop itself is clean and organized. The location is easy to access, and parking has not been an issue during my visits. It is a convenient setup for routine grooming without unnecessary hassle.

Always paid in full and alerted to concerns last two times with no resolution or offer to correct. Took several months off to allow hair to grow out even and get a fresh grooming start. Owner and team agreed that they saw my notes on account, then the day I brought in I discussed again concerns and history. Came to pick up and had an additional $40 charge for mat removal, that was not discussed or called to me. They stated we don't call to alert to additional cost/fees..WHAT? So, no need to address the cost associated to the service, I am just expected to cover no discussion? Please note, if called I would have approved if I understood the need, but while there could be areas to remove it was not anything of known nature or huge impact. Outcome: Poor Communication, Lack of corrective action when concerns presented and up charges for items not discussed. Be aware, services were wonderful until mid 2024 now I am questioning my provider options.
