This was Shiloh's first time here! Shiloh is a long hair dachshund! We are all very very happy! Shiloh got his nails trim, teeth brushed, and hair cut for a very reasonable cost! We will be going back!!! Everyone is very friendly and it looks super cute inside and clean! Smells good too when you walk in! Very pleased! Oh, i almost forgot I loved the Thanksgiving handkerchief!!! Super adorable!!

We love Elizabeth! She always does a great job grooming my Shih Tzu and always finishes in a timely manner. She was our groomer from 2013-2016 and was always super professional and very friendly. Unfortunately we have moved and the drive is a bit far, but she will always be our favorite groomer! Editing to add: Ivy always came home with a super cute themed bandana! read more

Elizabeth did a fantastic grooming on our Newfoundland. We left with a welcome gift and one happy dog! Elizabeth provides care that you can truly only receive from a small business owner. I brought our lab in for a nail trim and the nails are nice & short. Lastly she provides a loyalty wash after five! read more

We took our new puppy to Elizabeth today for a manicure and a bath and could not be more pleased with the service and the atmosphere at Once Upon A Grooming. Elizabeth is a true dog lover and it shows in everything she does. Our puppy, Morty came home looking and smelling terrific and the "Welcome Treat" complete with a squeaky toy and dog biscuits was a great touch. We look forward to many more groomings at Once Upon A Grooming! read more

We are new to the area and needed to find a place for our pup, Walle. He is a Labradoodle so his hair cuts can be a little challenging. We brought information from or groomer in San Diego with how they cut his hair and gave it to the groomers-they read it and talked with me about what I wanted. When we picked him up he looked great! He was the only dog in the shop at the time too-not sure if they usually only have one pup at a time or if that was just a fluke. The welcome bag was super cute as well! read more

Elizabeth was so great and accommodating. I recommend her 100%! If you have a specific preference of how you want your dog cut, she listens and executes wonderfully. The facility was clean and quaint. She treats the animals with love and kindness. The last groomer we went to never listened to how we wanted our dog cut and would only do what he thought looked better, which is a horrible way to do business with animals who are considered family. Thank goodness we found Once Upon a Grooming, if you are looking for a groomer who is educated, friendly, and listens, then you should take your furry baby here! read more

Elizabeth is a Godsend! She has always been nothing but sweet and caring to my dogs. We have been taking them to her for about 3 years or so and have NEVER had any problems whatsoever! Our dogs are ALWAYS happy to see her, so that in and of itself speaks highly of her good nature and kindness towards animals. After having several bad grooming experiences over the years, we are so happy to never have to worry about our babies being mistreated ever again as long as we have Elizabeth! We drive a good distance to get our dogs groomed by her because she is so worth it! That "Samantha" person is obviously a troll because there's no way in the world Elizabeth would ever hurt an animal! This person left other fake "reviews" on a few other review sites, with no evidence to back them up. Elizabeth is a Master Groomer and knows her stuff! Give her a chance and you and your pet will never go to another groomer! read more

We tried Once Upon a Grooming after reading the other reviews. So happy we did! Our two little shih tzus were greeted warmly by Elizabeth, and seemed to be having a good time when we returned to pick them up. They looked absolutely adorable (with special touches of bows and cute scarves), and Elizabeth made a point to let us know how good our little puppies had been. She also gifted them with a welcome goodie bag and handed us a personalized punchcard for future visits. As other reviewers noted, her shop was very clean and organized with attention to detail. Elizabeth was friendly, answered all of our questions, and, most importantly, seemed to genuinely enjoy meeting and grooming our little pups. We will definitely visit Elizabeth again, and are very pleased with the care and attention our puppies received. read more

Obviously whoever wrote the previous rating on not taking your dog here really never took their dog to this groomer! She is the most caring and gentle person I have ever seen with dogs - I have two dogs myself and my son as two huskies and she absolutely rocks when it comes to being able to handle them let along make them look wonderful when they leave. And my one dog requires shaving and shaping each time and I have never experienced any issues as this person is saying - my dog is so excited when she sees her!! My husband and I have been going to her since we have had our dogs - she was at another place but it wasn't as clean as her new location! You will be just amazed at how cute and clean this place is. Don't hesitate to try her out - you will not be disappointed!! read more

She always takes the time to hear exactly what I'm asking for, but she also brings her own expertise to make sure my pup is genuinely well cared for, even when that means going beyond what I originally requested. That combination of attentiveness and skill is rare. We feel so lucky to work with Agnes. She's the only person I trust with my dog, and I recommend her without hesitation. 5++ stars all around!

Wonderful job! Clean and organized...Agnes is skilled, gentle and kind. So happy we found her!…read moreThank you!

Where do I begin?!! We have been going to THE DOG STOP for years, but they just continue to exceed…read moremy expectations! We were 15 minutes late past closing last night due to a flight delay. I spoke to several members of the team who assured me that they would wait so I could get my timid dog out of boarding. I didn't even ask, they OFFERED! Plus, they had groomed him later in the afternoon so he was fresh and clean for pickup. Evie is a rockstar! Went above and beyond-so kind and sweet-stayed late and even gave him extra treats! Sarah, the general manager called me today as a follow up....service is just second to none!

If there was a negative star option, I would have used that…read morerating. If you love your pet, do NOT let them near this facility. We boarded our healthy but elderly dog for a week at this facility. We boarded her here before without incident and always informed the handlers about her chronic conditions, but not life threatening conditions (bronchitis, arthritis and partial deafness). Before the week was over and on Christmas day (the day before we were due to pick her up) we received a text message (because why would anyone pick up the phone these days) informing us that our dog had diarrhea and had literally soiled all over herself. We asked whether we could pick her up right away in response to their text but were told that we should wait a couple of hours. After we brought her home our dog vomited several large rubber bands and bile and started shaking uncontrollably, followed by more diarrhea. We promptly took her to the emergency vet and spent hours there and many hundreds of dollars in testing, including an ultrasound the following morning, to treat her dehydration and to make sure that our dog had expelled all of the foreign matter from her system. We informed the Dog Stop of these facts and received a "poor dog" text in response, claiming that they were "investigating the matter." No phone call or any offer to make things right by this facility. The negligence of this business and their staff have caused pain and discomfort to our (former therapy) dog who has precious little time left on this Earth. I am outraged and how little concern they have shown for our animal and would never ever let any animal near this facility.

Natalie (the Owner) and her business are absolute LOVE! They…read moreare the best people on the inside, and I know how they care for their Clients and especially Dogs (most important!- I know Natalie's opinion on caring for the animals, and even offering an 'open door policy' during the grooming). It's a small business with heart .. and integrity. My only regret is that I didn't share this review 14+ years ago. I'm just glad I'm getting around to do it now (while we're all closed and shut in due to the global pandemic). Thank you, Natalie, .. and Greco's Grooming Salon. I hope you are all in, safe, healthy and well. And that I get to see you soon. Love & gratitude

I've been procrastinating getting my dogs nails clipped since they both HATE having their paws…read moretouched. I finally had a day off today and called last minute to see if they had time for two nail trims and they got me in an hour later without a problem! Ten minutes later both my pups were out with trimmed and grinder nails and we were good to go! Awesome pricing, great service and lovely ladies!!
