My first time at the Poochie Parlor was a pleasant experience. I got my dog a standard wash and cut. I have minimal direction and my dog came out clean cut and smelling fresh. The reception was friendly, the person who came out to greet my dog was equally as friendly and I loved that the patrons were familiar with the staff. It seems like PP services regulars often, which says a lot. Scheduling was easy, but I had to schedule four weeks out, based on availability. This establishment is cash or check only. I'm 2022 that seems a little challenging, but worth the trouble for my furry broke little best friend I am looking forward to trying them again. These people are personable and seem to genuinely like dogs, not like the staff at PetSmart grooming. read more

Respect the owner's request I specifically asked not to shave my dog and that's exactly what they did. She's a puppy a St. Bernard poodle mix. She had matting but I know for a fact that they could have left a couple of inches. Which I requested. Do not recommend this company! I hope they reimburse me. Which would be the right and professional decision. I will tell my vet to NEVER RECOMMEND THEM, I would never recommend them to anyone. read more

I've been going to Poochie Parlor for years. They took such good care of my first dog who had extreme skin allergies. They listened to the directions from the Vet on how to use the products that they had to use. Now my new dog goes there too and I've never had an issue with anyone there. They are always friendly and accommodating. read more

I have been using Poochie parlor for several years basically out of convenience, but the last time I took my dog there they just shaved her completely bald. They did not tell me they were going to do that. I didn't even recognize her horrible job and they overcharge for terrible work. I will never bring my dog there again. read more

First time, Horrible experience. Owner Carol was unprofessional and racist. Treated my dogs with no respect. All due to I expressed Poochie Parlor Payment options are limited, and such limitation has not been transparent on website or any platform company is being advertised. Carol the owner automictically assumed and insinuated I could not afforded the cash payment demanded, because I was black, which is disgusting. Instead of apology that polices are indeed not transparent, she insulted. read more

Left several messages and never received a call back. That's no way to run a business.

I have used poochie parlor the last 2 times for my dog last 2 times and found them to be very professional and have done a great job

I come here monthly and they always do a great job. No complaints. Call ahead of time because they book up on the weekends quickly!

Finding a place to cater to your dog is hard. It's like finding a barber for your own child or a hair stylist for your daughter, you won't just go to anyone. Poochie parlor is by far the most peace of mind you'll have when leaving your dog to get groomed. They don't cage in dogs CAGE-FREE!!!! And they set up appointments so they won't overlap or have an abundance of dogs running around. My dogs come out looking beautiful, smelling great, and most importantly they don't itch. They are very thorough and careful in what they do. read more

Prior to taking my Golden Retriever to Poochie Parlor I had taken her to several small local shops and a chain store. Covid has been extremely difficult for local groomers and wanted to keep local. Finally today I found my new groomer at Poochie Parlor. Parking was very easy in back. was greeted very warmly on arrival. My Sophie was relaxed going in with groomer. very good vibe walking in. My husband who is very protective of his pup said same thing. it was a very easy experience. was called 3.5 hours later and she was beautiful! We just knew this was a good fit for Sophie. Very grateful, cost for services (bath/cut/teeth cleaning) was perfectly reasonable. it's local and perfect. Please shop locally when possible. read more

Many thanks to Jen for making our Joonies 1st grooming experience so great! Joonie is our 5 month old Teddy Bear who loves her family but has not met many people due to Covid. Jen understood our concern and took great care of Joonie. Not only does she look adorable but she came home happy and calm! Jen groomed our beloved standard poodle, Maggie, before she passed years ago and I am grateful to have located her again to take care of Joonie. Thanks Jen & Poochie Patlor for a job well done!!! read more

I've taken my dog Marley here for a few years. They do a great cut. He always comes home happy. read more

We love Poochie Parlor!! I have a large doodle and after bad experiences at a couple other local groomers, we finally found Poochie Parlor. I know my dog is a big boy and a lot of work but he always comes out looking great!! Jen communicates with us if she thinks he needs a little more of a trim than usual which I really appreciate. Can't recommend them enough!! read more

They were very nice and excited. I was a new last minute customer and their prices are great. I have a 4 month Frenchie and he came out great. The staff even got him to like them so much he didn't want to leave . Overall I liked them, thank you ! read more

I've been coming here with my 3 dogs for years. Carol and her team are great. My girls are always cut well and they're always happily playing when I come to pick them up. I took one star away because they're a little pricey but obviously worth it. read more

I've been bringing my dogs there for 10 years! My dogs always come back happy, clean and perfect looking! They love going there even though they usually hate baths! I love that they let the dogs run free while they're there! The girls are just wonderful! Such an awesome grooming shop! read more

I've been taking my dog here for 10 years and wouldn't dream of using anyone else! He hates going out but he loves going to Poochie Parlor.

Have been using Poochie Parlor for years. When they were in Oceanside we used them for our two Polish Lowland Sheepdogs and now they are in Baldwin and we use them for our Coton de Tulear. Crystal always does a great job and Casper comes home looking very, very handsome. (He even made it into the American Coton Club Calendar). read more

(Pet Lovers Beware): A complete, factual account of my experience with Poochie Parlor... I recently brought my Maltese to Poochie Parlor as it was one of the few pet grooming places I could find after having moved back to NY from the Bay Area (unfortunately - Yelp reviews aren't as predominant for Long Island as they are for the Bay). I dropped him off and mentioned that I'd like him to be given a "Puppy Cut" - a popular cut for a Maltese. I assumed any pet grooming place would know what "Puppy Cut" meant. Unfortunately, I returned two hours later to find that all they had done was just shave or cut off ALL of his hair (it had gone from a few inches long to at most half an inch). On top of that, my impression of the place upon return was that they were very unprofessional. They had no idea what leash I brought him in with (you'd think a pet grooming place would have a simple system to ensure those things would not get mixed up). In shock from his horrendous haircut, I realized I had forgotten to get a receipt from them (given their quality and lack of professionalism I was very inclined to have something on record of their work as who knows if anything might have happened to him while there). I called the next day kindly requesting that I had forgotten to get a receipt and the conversation played out as follows (verbatim): Them: "We don't give receipts" Me: "Why not?" Them: "When you go to get a haircut, do they give you a receipt?" In fact they do, Poochie Parlor, for just about every haircut I've gotten in my life. I cannot caution pet lovers against this place strongly enough. Clearly they do not exhibit the level of care or attention that we do upon our pets, nor do they have any semblance of professionalism or courtesy. read more

I'm really sorry to update this review but it needs to be done. My mom and I started taking our 2 Cavaliers to Poochie Parlor at least 5 years ago. We never had a problem until last month. When she took Maude and Alfie in, my mom asked them to expel their anal glands. She picked them up, was told it was done and paid for it. 3 weeks later, Maude gets up from her bed and there's blood. My mom takes her to the vet and $400 later, it turns out Maude's anal glands weren't expelled and it has abscessed on the right side. Alfie's glands had been done. My mom went to the store and Shari, the owner, wasn't there. Instead, she had to deal with an obnoxious girl who kept saying "If it was 3 weeks ago, we can't be held responsible." The point is that if it had been done 3 weeks ago, it wouldn't have abscessed. I left several messages for Shari, dealing with the bitchiest man on the phone and never received a response. I even told them that we weren't looking for them to pay the vet bill, I just wanted to speak to Shari as a longtime customer and tell her what happened. I think Shari is a talented groomer but I think the people she's entrusted to run her store when she's not there are rude and incompetent. read more

Love this place! They are great to the dogs, no cages even if they have to wait for mommy or daddy to come get them. My dog Zeus knows when we are on our way and gets so excited! read more

I usually don't post reviews on Yelp, but I'm so furious with the grooming job done by Poochie Parlor that I feel compelled to write a review. My husband brought our Maltipoo in at 10am yesterday morning to be groomed. He specified that we didn't want the dog's hair too short. The woman who took him in said they would call us when he was ready. At 1:45 we still hadn't gotten a call ( that was almost 4 hours after he was dropped off!) so I called. They told me they were running behind because they had a giant size dog in there that had taken a long time to groom! Really! My dog should sit there for almost 4 hours because you probably overbooked your appointments. I expressed my annoyance and they said my dog would be ready in approximately 45 minutes. That would mean that the poor dog was there for almost 5 hours! When my husband went to pick him up, they had cut my dog's hair so short, it's practically down to the skin and his face hair is also so short he looks like a rat. He was adorable when we brought him in and now he looks terrible! My husband asked why they cut him so short when they were told not to do that. They said he must have been knotted. He absolutely was not knotted. I brush him several times a week, so I know that's not true. I am so furious with the job they did. They just cut him any way they wanted after making him wait for 4 hours. Now we have to wait months for his hair to grow back and to look normal again. They have lost a customer. I will never go back there again. There have got to be better places than this! read more

I took my bansenji, which is a short hair breed, here to get washed and dried. I pick him up to find a huge chunk of his hair missing and a scratch. I demanded explanations and no one could tell me anything. They acted like they didn't even care I was upset. How can you not know what happened? This is your job to groom and take care of dogs while in you're establishment. No one offered me anything not even an apology. I strongly recommend you take your animals elsewhere read more

This place is amazing. I always take my dogs here. I can't imagine anything bad even happening in these people's hands they're all awesome like artists I can't even understand how anyone has written a bad review about this place. Their prices are even amazing.. when I take my dogs to the poochie polar they always look so happy and comfortable when I bring them. I never been unhappy with how my dogs hair cuts come out! The staff is so nice & friendly and treat my dogs with such love and care! I highly recommend the poochie polar! If I could give them more than 5 starts I would! read more

Took my two dogs there. The shampoo they used made them itch really bad and I realized they had cut my shih tzu he had scabs all over his body the very next day. I should have known better not to bring them because my shih tzu had no problems going to the groomers and the day I dropped him off to Poochie Parlor he was so scared to go in and he was never like that. Won't be bringing my dogs back there no more. Very disappointing read more

Best experience. My dogs are afraid of everything and everyone but their tags are wagging when we enter this place. They know their names and are so kind and gentle. The always smell delicious and are so happy when we arrive. Great staff too! read more

Super friendly,great work, and very professional. I recommend the Poochie Parlor to anyone in need of dog grooming. Ask for Stacey.

I have been bringing my Doodle Jack and my cat Whiskers here for 5 years. I have never been happier. They do a great job for a reasonable price and they don't cage the dogs. Jack has a great time playing with all the other dogs and Whiskers always seems calm and looks beautiful after getting her lion cut. I recommend Poochie Parlor to everyone. read more

Brought my pitbull here for a bath and had the best experience!! My dog is usually a handful so i was a bit worried at first but will definitely be coming back... everyone was super friendly and my dog came back smelling beautifully and clean and super happy ! Also paid HALF the price then what i paid at another groomers nearby....So happy to have finally found a reliable and trustworthy place for a great price ! read more

I tried every groomer in the area and this is the best one. They always give my dog a great hair cut, they don't take forever, and they offer the best deal. My dog always leaves looking great and happy. My dog hates going out and even runs out of PetCo, but whenever we pick him up from Poochie Parlor he seems to be having a great time. Poochie Parlor's prices are very reasonable and they're reliable. read more

my dog needed a grooming. went there for the first time, will never go back. he had his flea meds and was in perfect shape. to my utter dismay, he came home with a live flea !!! Now any money i saved, will be spent at my vet. read more

I brought my two dogs in to be groomed. My dogs bark a lot and get scared very easily. The minute they realize where we are going, their tails wag rapidly. They are greeted with warmth and familiarity by the groomers. They are always smelling delicious when I pick them up and look more adorable then before. The staff is so pleasant and always treat my doggies like their own. I love this place. When I moved away, I still drive 30 minutes to have them groomed here. #sohappy! read more

The poochie parlor is the best grooming salon in the Oceanside/Baldwin area and may I add the most affordable. My dogs have gone to a near by grooming salon and I found the prices to be outrageous- nothing compares to the poochie parlor. The staff is even great and love your dog like their own ! read more

I guess if we criticise Yelps tactics, boom, it's filtered immediately. Let's try a 4 star this time. I also have a business and have zero faith in Yelp. Eight out of nine are filtered because they're written at similar times? The one left is a 1 star? It's a pay off folks! No advertising and you still pay but not with $$$'s ... There is an uprising currently on FB, Twitter and just Google the problems business owners are having with Yelp and there deplorable tactics. . It's inconcievable that they took my 5 star rating down along with the others and left a one star up. Maybe Poochie Parlor and the rest of us should pay for Yelp advertising when they call so we won't be penalized! So, let us see how long this remains up! Not to worry, mine were taken down also after the sales rep couldn't sell me. Google is where we want our ratings, not YELP! read more

STAY AWAY FROM POOCHIE PARLOR!!!!! I should have listened to the last reviewer, but I thought that I would just give them direct instructions and they would follow. (Yeah right). I took my shih tzu over there (first time) because I had been looking around for a groomer. My shih tzu has long hair (we keep it long for the winter) and we just wanted a trim and for them to clean up her face and buttocks. I told the lady that when I got there and she said that the dog was matted (this is a dog that gets groomed every 4 weeks and gets a bath once a week). I told her no her hair is just long that she was not matted. I picked her up a few hours later to my surprise she was butchered. I decided I would not go off on them or make a scene. I took my dog home and she was traumatized. They cut her butt area too low and she was having problems walking around. Her hair was cut so low you could see her skin. I returned the next day to let them know that I was just advising them to listen to their customers and the groomer and the lady at the front desk both argued with me that I did not brush my dog and that she was matted and they had to shave her that short. They were very unprofessional and very rude and just disrespectful and I would never go back there! read more

I went to Poochie Parlor because my vet was told by her clients they were good. I had Bischon, Maltese and a Shih Tzu all really well groomed but my regular groomer was hospitalized so they were about a week overdue as well as finishing with ear infection meds so they really needed to be groomed. I called and was told that I can bring them right over. When I walked in my dogs were taken away from me as I was trying to tell them how I like and wanted them cut. They employee was completely uninterested in my opinion and made me feel as though my opinion was unimportant and useless as she was the"expert". I kept calling saying do NOT shave them. They were like "ok". I left and some hours later I went to pick up my dogs...... OMG they looked horrible! Poochie Parlor did what they wanted and completely ignored my instructions and shaved the dogs to their skin!!! Also the were not separated from giant breeds and my poor bischon was being molested by a giant poodle. I asked what did they do and their reply was"what's wrong"? I paid them and said give my dogs and ran out of there. How anybody can take and leave their beloved pets there is completely beyond me. It is mine and my dogs worst grooming experience ever. read more
