I was desperate for a grooming for my dog and requested an available slot. The day of the appointment, they couldn't take my dog for grooming. One because they needed the vaccine lot number and expiration!!! Never had such a bullshit request Then, they said they couldn't accommodate my dog for grooming because they are full Why would you have an open appointment if you cannot keep the appointment‼ Then, I found out later that they had emailed and called 45 minutes before the appointment that they cannot groom my dog at all Don't have a open slot if you cannot keep it‼ Very disappointed read more

Getting an appointment here for me was quick and easy! My dog Gigi (4 yr old cream Cockapoo mix with ombre gray-black tip tale) desperately needed her groom since I failed to pre-book at her regular groomer. However, everything worked out since I've been wanting to ger her groomed by Logan for more than a year now! I first heard of Gabriel Feitosa's Grooming Salon through Instagram at least 3 years ago. And finally... we got to go! Prepare your dogs vaccination records. :) Bring them before or on the grooming day. When you arrive, you will fill out a simple questionaire with basic info. They'll ask the usual.. what style groom you have in mind! I like my dog to have the typical teddy bear cut. :) So cute! Keep the eyelashes etc. It took a few hours (as expected) and I was sooooo happy with Gigi's groom by Logan! Logan is so detail-oriented and sooo nice! When I came to pick Gigi up, he kindly came out to bring Gigi out! I also had Winston, (Gigi's bestie) with me since Winston was with us overnight for a pupsleepover! At the salon, they sell treats, dog clothing, dog bed, dog necklaces and shoes, and our fave, the dog cologne by Hydra USA! Logan used Forever Fresh on Gigi and it smelled amazing! I returned a week after to purchase it. There are many other amazing colognes too to choose from. Natashya and Randy assisted me at the front desk and they were so kind and welcoming! We will be back in the future and will also support at the new location! P.S. Parking - street parking with meters. There is a small lot on the left of the salon but I am unsure if those belong to the other businesses or if anyone can park. It's pretty easy though to find parking. read more

I dropped off my very small dog at 11 AM, and he was only ready at 4 PM -- which felt excessively long for a dog his size. I requested a specific haircut, but instead they almost shaved off all his fur. When I picked him up, he was visibly shaking -- a huge contrast from how happy and relaxed he usually is after grooming at other places. A few days later, I noticed white, flaky patches on his skin, which looked like dry scales -- possibly due to poor hygiene or rough handling. Unfortunately, this experience left me very disappointed, and I definitely won't be coming back. read more

Always a wonderful experience and the cutest cut for my pup. I've gone with other groomers but nothing beats the look that Logan creates for my pup. I always get compliments for her haircuts. I'm looking forward to some creative cuts and possibly dyeing my pups hair and possibly trying the BBL! Thank you, Logan and Mimo crew for always taking such great care of my Mo read more

Lookmaxxing for your dog lol I never even knew how cute my little princess could look. Every time she comes home from here I'm overwhelmed with cute aggression. I've had tons of people ask where she gets her hair cut and am always happy to let them know that Gabriel Feitosa is the spot! Guess I need to learn the new name now It took me over 4 years of being her mom to find someone who actually knew how to cut her hair, and she sees the standard groomers rather than Logan or Gabriel (who charge a premium price). Some of her cuts are just so unbelievably cute and precise - I wish they could always be so perfect. My girl is a lil too spicy and makes things difficult sometimes, but I always appreciate the groomers doing their best with her! read more

Well I decided to try their grooming services and from the moment I walked in it was like wow it was like a posh salon... After going only to Supercuts with those past groomers. The difference was night and day. It's completely worth it to pay a few extra dollars to have a perfect cut treated with excellent service. I didn't get Gabrielle or Logan but whoever did the job was well trained. There's an amazing storefront with so many cute things like: little outfits and perfumes and treats birthday ice cream and cake hand carved candles pillows with different breeds on them, mugs and more. There was so much to see and buy! And especially appreciate it all the artwork I really like the artwork around it was like a gallery. Did take several weeks to get the appointment but I'm so glad I waited thank you guys for taking care of my Winston! read more

I've been bringing my baby Winston here since he was just a pup, and I can honestly say this son has been the best choice I could have made for him. Logan is incredible--his haircuts have truly turned Winston into the little icon he is today. And the rest of the staff? Absolutely amazing. Natache is amazing. They go above and beyond to make Winston feel at home, giving him so much love and care every single visit. He adores them just as much as they adore him. As a dog mom, it gives me so much peace knowing he's not only in the best hands for grooming, but also surrounded by people who treat him like family. Thank you, Logan and the entire Gabriel Feitosa Grooming Salon team, for all the love you've shown Winston since day one. IG: @lifeofwinsty read more

It may be hard to get an appointment from time to time, but that's just due to the overwhelming fact that their groomers are artists!!!

Our dog seldom gets groomed but we are getting married during the weekend so we decided that he needed a little glow up for the photos! This was our first time here and we had such a stellar first experience! Our pup can be a little nervous at times, so it was a relief to know that he did well and was well taken care of during the visit. We were also very lucky to get a same day appointment on such short notice! The visit lasted about 3 hours and our boy came out so clean cut and fresh. For a wash, cut, blow dry and nail trim it came out to about $160 which I thought was reasonable for the amazing results. They also had applied some complimentary fragrance that smelled amazing! I don't live in the San Diego area but I will definitely take my pup again if the opportunity arises! Thankful for such excellent service! read more

We went to countless groomers trying to find the right place for our Pomeranian to get pampered and trimmed (with just scissors). Everywhere we'd been to had been horrible with lazy trimming. Don't ever go to chain salons, they aren't true artists. We are so glad we stumbled on finding Gabriel Feitosa and his amazing salon. They specialize in pampering your fur babies and do it all for reasonable prices! Everyone employed here seems to be artists and love what they do. They take care of each dog that walks in as if they are their own. Natache at the front desk is always sweet, kind, funny, and she makes it feel like we're talking to an old friend. We also had the honor in meeting the man himself, Gabriel. He is so sweet too and is very knowledgeable when it comes not only to grooming dogs but about dogs in general!! Cindy took care of our Pomeranian last time we were here and she did an amazing job. Our Pom was a wild tumbleweed when she came in and came out looking clean, super cute, and demure! If you love your fur babies, you will not regret going here. They are worth every penny! I'm so glad we found our forever grooming salon. Thank you to all the staff that make this place wonderful! i highly recommend!! read more

Let me start by saying I love my dog so much that I fully admit I can be a little "extra" when it comes to his care, and I own that proudly. Gabriel Feitosa Grooming has been nothing but patient, kind, and accommodating with all my requests. My Pomeranian, Rocky, has a super thick coat and gets full show cuts, and every single time he comes back looking like a total rock star. The facility is spotless, which really matters to me, and the whole team clearly cares about the pets they work with. If you want your dog to look amazing and be treated with love, this is absolutely the place to go. read more

If you're looking for an amazing place to bring your sweet fur baby, look no further! This has been the happiest our boys have been visiting a groomer. They're quite anxious and get pretty worked up once we step foot in a place where they know they're gonna be groomed, but not here! They were treated with the utmost care and shown tons of love. The whole ambiance of the front shop is so cute and welcoming and they had a wide variety of wonderful toys and treats for sale. The check in process is quick and hassle free and they make sure all the boxes are checked so they don't miss a thing while they have your baby. Gabriel was there for pick up with our second boy and he was so nice! We were beyond amazed with the outcome of our boys! Thank you Logan! read more

I booked with Logan after seeing a few videos online of him grooming puppies and keeping calm while they try their shenanigans. I had a bad experience at another groomer years ago where they were rough with my rescue and have been attempting my own grooming for about 6 years. I wanted a different grooming future for my new puppy. I was admittedly a nervous mom going into the appointment because, not only was this his first grooming appointment, this was his first time out by himself and socializing. Due to health issues Hetch had been very sheltered and only recently cleared by the vet so he had little experience around other dogs or out of the house. The receptionist was nice and gave me a good nudge to trust the process and let her take him to the back. It felt like the first day of preschool. There was another miniature schnauzer there with a very traditional cut. Although the dog looked ready to show, I asked to keep more of a puppy look than the sharp eyebrows and beard. I love that Logan enhanced those long lashes with the brow trim and kept a rounded face. The blending from his back to the schnauzer skirt is very impressive. I was able to sneak a peak of Hetch on the table when they were finishing up and I was shocked he looked calm. When he came out he had the fluffiest hair I have seen on him. I plan to keep taking Hetch to Logan. read more

I've been bringing my dog here for nail trims for over 10 years, back when it was still called Bow Wow. I've always trusted them and had great experiences in the past. Unfortunately, over the last year or so, the quality of the nail trims has gone downhill. My dog has very fragile nails. Some barely grow, while a few grow inward toward her paw pad, which can be painful if they're not properly trimmed and filed. I've explained multiple times that I only need those specific nails trimmed and filed down carefully. Every time I bring her home and check, the nails growing inward are barely filed and still close to her pad. I'll take responsibility as well -- it's partly my fault for not checking her nails more closely while I was still at the store. That said, I did clearly explain her needs, and I expected the service to be done correctly without having to double-check each time. I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt and continued coming back, but it feels like my concerns aren't being listened to. Nail trims aren't cheap, especially when I'm only asking for a few nails to be trimmed and filed properly. I understand there has been a lot of staff turnover, and the staff is friendly and clearly works hard, but more attention needs to be paid to listening to the dog's specific needs. I'm really disappointed because I've been a loyal customer for many years, but if this continues, I may have to start looking for a different groomer. read more

Our little fur baby has gotten his grooming only from this Salon ever since he was a puppy and I believe his groomer is Cindy! Cindy and the entire team is absolutely wonderful and they really go out of their way to return your pup as their cutest version possible every single time. They have photos that they take after each session so you can always make any adjustments next time you come back- which I really appreciate. The session takes about 3 hours and our little baby always comes out pampered, freshly cut, looking extra cute and adorable The front desk Natache is so sweet so helpful and always makes me feel at ease and it's always a plus seeing all the cute dogs coming in and out of the salon!! Least to say, we are very happy we stumbled across this salon! read more

Gabriel Feitosa and the team are the best!! Our now retired champion Border Terrier "Tess" went from raggedy to looking ready for the show ring. They paid attention to every detail and were so calm with our dog. We spent a lot of time searching for a groomer who is expert in hand stripping for terriers. Gabriel and the team really know what they are doing and made Tess comfortable while transforming her back to a showgirl. The entire staff are super helpful, engaging, and knowledgeable. In addition, the salon is well-organized, clean, and has cool treats and accessories. Thank you Gabriel for a great experience! This is the only salon in San Diego for our girl. read more

The absolute worst place we have ever had to deal with grooming. We continued to get the runaround for the past month with trying to make an appointment getting to the appointment and then they rescheduled for today on their door.It says they're closed on Mondays but online it says they're open which can be super confusing on top of that They gave us a ridiculous amount of 400+ dollars to shave our dogs because they were matted due to an event that we had attended, we were genuinely asking for help and we knew that we would get a good groom, but instead of just refusing us altogether, they just kept being extremely rude and asking for a ridiculous amount of money. I just don't understand how anyone can treat someone like this and continue to be in business. It is severely disappointing, especially on Veterans Day to a veteran .Do better. Editing to reply to comment: I called and told them the 6th can no longer work as I had MILITARY DUTY that was short notice and your manager did not care at all, knowing we still needed to get our dogs in I ate the cost of the deposit yet again because your manager was not understanding to the situation whatsoever... I let it roll. I then made the appointment for the 11th.I arrived early to find out on the door of the establishment was CLOSED and thought it was a joke they would schedule us on a Monday even though online states it's open. You cannot change our mind about our experience and the service we were provided while coming to your salon. Again extremely disappointing. read more

Here's a stronI am extremely disappointed with the service my Yorkie received at this grooming salon. Not only did they do a poor job overall, but they also cut his anus, causing him pain and discomfort. This is completely unacceptable! I had to take him to the veterinarian to treat the area, which added extra stress and expenses that should never have been necessary. A professional groomer should be careful and attentive, especially when working with small, delicate dogs like Yorkies. Clearly, this place lacks the proper training or concern for animal welfare. I will never bring my dog here again. read more

I can't say enough good things about Gabriel Feitosa, the staff, especially Logan the BEST groomer! Louie, our 6 month teacup Pomeranian, has never looked more handsome. In the past, after grooming appointments, he'd come home anxious, fearful, and a little down for days--but not this time! From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear he was in good hands. He left looking perfect, happy, and full of energy, and you could tell he was treated with so much care and love. We are definitely coming back for all future grooming needs! Highly recommend! read more

My Winston gets his grooming done here after being recommended by Bailey's mom (Patty S.) and we both love it so much! I love getting to see Natache and her fur babies in the front when checking in. The storefront is so cute and has fun treats/toys/clothes etc for the dogs. On the grooming, Ayumi always does an amazing job on my Winston's hair. He is a bigger boy, so I did not think he would ever have that super luscious, soft hair like a smaller dog but my baby's hair is sooooooo soft whenever he leaves here. You can tell quality product is used and that Ayumi really puts effort into the service. I am so grateful for the care she takes with my little guy! They also take pictures of the pups and keep good record on their file! This for me is just further reassurance and absolutely worth it to have that peace, knowing your dogs are in good hands. read more

Today was my first time dropping off my furry baby Charlie for grooming and I only have positive things to say about my whole experience! The salon is super cute with a pretty well stocked store as well. Paul helped me check in at the front desk, he was extremely nice and made sure to explain what my appointment entailed. He was very sweet with my pup and I could tell that Charlie would be in good hands! It's always nice having a friendly face during check in so I'm glad Paul helped us out! I had originally booked an appointment for handstripping, but it got switched into a regular bath and haircut. A little after I dropped off Charlie I got a call from Alex, our groomer, and he explained to me that due to my pups coat he wouldn't be a good candidate for handstripping. He also said he wanted to make sure my pup wasn't uncomfortable so we decided on a regular bath and haircut. I appreciated the honesty instead of just going ahead with the more expensive service. I got a call about 3.5 hours after I dropped off my pup to let me know that he was ready for pick up. As soon as I saw my pup, I couldn't stop saying how amazing he looked! Alex did an amazing job! I could tell that he has a lot of experience because I haven't been able to find a groomer that does the schnauzer cut so perfectly! Paul also put on a super cute bandana on Charlie and gave him a treat! The ba I will definitely be booking Charlie's next appointment here! They found another loyal customer! The salon is a bit of a drive for me, but it's worth the drive. I could also tell that my pup had a good time because he's usually more stressed when I've picked him up from other grooming salons. I highly recommend this salon for your pup! read more

My Bambi and Milo (maltipoo and toy poodle) have been coming to this salon since August 2024. I have never experienced such pleasant groomers and manager (she is the sweetest) They are all so welcoming, understanding and my babies love it here. They treat and care my babies as if they are their own. Milo is...should I say, a difficult puppy. He hates getting groomed due to previous grooming sessions (he's super anxious and traumatized about getting groomed) . Ever since then it has been hard for Milo to be seen by a groomer. However, the manager and groomers were so understanding and have been caring for Milo ever since. Milo and Bambi always walk out looking cute, smelling amazing and overall feeling great. The patience they have with Milo and Bambi is outstanding. My babies come out so happy and playful. I trust them 100% with my puppers. Definitely will always be a loyal customer! read more

Had a really bad experience and my dogs tongue was cut. I dropped off my 35lb poodle that was getting a clean cut (no styling requested, nothing special) and my appointment was at 11:00am and I was estimated 3.5-4 hours for the grooming. Five hours later, I had to text the salon to check in, and around 4pm I showed up and he still wasn't finished. Come around 5pm I'm still waiting... and i'm told that my dog got a cut on his tongue because he was moving when they were finishing trimming his face. Honestly... after SIX HOURS it's no wonder my dog was restless!! I've never had a simple cut take more than 3 hours, but 6? Needless to say I was livid and I couldn't go in the back to see my dog was okay. They said it would agitate my dog and the bleeding would take longer to stop, but it felt horrible to know my dog was injured and stuck in the back with the people who caused the harm. Not to mention, when I first arrived I was told that my price went up because he was a puppy during his last visit and smaller. LIES! My dog had been to this groomer 1 time, when he was 3 years old, and they were telling me this less than a year later (he was still 3, it hasn't been a year, and he was the same weight.) I didn't make a big deal out of it and was going to pay it, maybe they made a mistake the first visit, but that combined with the wait time and harm they caused my dog... i'll never go back. I get the feeling they prioritize their regulars or people who get specialized grooming. I saw many dogs arrive after mine and leave before mine, all with special dye cuts. Don't take on appointments if you don't have time to do the grooming in a reasonable time. Now i'm positive my dog was sitting in the back for hours just waiting and waiting for a basic cut that was done poorly. $200+ for a cut that looks like this? And it took forever and my dog was harmed? Such a bummer. read more
