They have continuously taken great care of my pup Toto. I have gone to them for over 3 years now…read more I KNOW he is a pain in the a** sometimes but the team has taken great care of him regardless. The staff does occasionally get restless with his barking, but that's mainly because he hates being alone. I work from home, so he's almost never alone. One thing I will suggest to any dog owner that has attachment issues and/barking issues, please consider giving them CBD/hemp oil to ease the stress on these groomers. I've been suggested trazodone, which I consider a pretty aggressive step, but it does get to a point where as an owner you need to be considerate of the people taking care of your dog. I am well aware my dog is not easy to take care of, but I hope this review reflects an honest appreciation for their effort and kindness to Toto. Toto is a Greenland Husky / Shepherd mix, and I get the complete package of Dog Grooming which includes deshed, bath, extra brushing, nail trim, and whatever else is listed on their page. For owners with dogs that shed, this is the place to take care of that. Cheers.

If you want more photos check out his IG: @_konakonakona Parking: She has a designated parking spot just outside her salon so it's easy to drop off and pick up your fur baby Experience: Upon arrival she does a thorough consultation to ensure she achieves the perfect look and sets expectations. We like the teddy bear/puppy cut and bichon face so he's really round. Service: Bath, haircut, gland expression as well as teeth, brushing hair, cleaning, nail trim, and buff. Booking: You can text her or use the portal. We book his appointments 2-3 weeks out because she is quite busy. We've gone to her twice now and Kona looks like perfection! Book your appointment for your fur baby! You won't regret it!

POMERANIAN GROOMING (5 stars)…read more Spa Day for my Gigi! A new young Pomeranian has entered my life and I wanted to be on the right track either way the right go-to people. After seeing on social media advertising of this groomer, I felt the urge to secure an appointment instead of going to my previous Pom's groomer. And I am very very very happy with the end results! Location is downtown, there is a small parking lot but usually full - has with narrow spots and hard to get into since surround streets are one-way busy streets. I recommend circling and parking on 10th Ave for less of hassle. Fabiola is fabulous! She was so sweet, caring, attentive, and does an amazing job cutting fur. She doesn't rush each grooming and takes her time for a very quality cut. She also has a Pomeranian which made my experience feeling better because she knew exactly how to cut their fur. We even had conversations about Pomeranians and everything about our dog care life. My Pomeranian looks so beautiful and smelt wonderful when I picked her up. I asked for a trim, clean up the buttox area, and do cut the paws (like cat paws). She also knows how Pom fur is suppose to look like and she rounded out all the areas needed AND brought in the fur around the waist to give my Pomeranian a cinched look. For a bath, some treats, nails trim, and fur.cut for $115 - please tip on top, she does a great job. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

About three months ago, Doozydog!Club took care of our baby, AmyJames, very well…read more Before this last time that they took care of our sweet baby, Linna was helpful in making sure that he was going to be well taken care, communicated with me well, etc., to make sure that the check in process would be smooth. She was thoughtful in this respect, & was attentive to our dog. Kristan was very kind to our lovely pet, was personable & attentive when we spoke on the phone, & was very accommodating with our baby as to having him at their dog day care center. On one night, our dog looked that he was not feeling well, & Kristan made a wise decision to have her staff member get our pet to a nearby pet hospital to get seen, after a few hours, baby was okay, & same staff member returned our sweet one to the dog club. Our sweet baby had trouble walking & was slipping on their smooth floor, & Kristan made sure to get some dog booties to fit his four legs to help to make him comfortable & to make him feel at ease with his walking, & this made a big difference on him. Several people took part in taking care of AmyJames, & I did not get their names. Thank you all at Doozydog!Club.

I recently brought my dog here, first for the initial meet and greet then for daycare. I appreciate…read morethe format of the meet and greet first to get the dog acquaintanced with the facility then introduce other dogs, and of course it was complimentary. It was also great to get additional information and speak with the manager. I could really tell she cares about the dogs that come here and she made us feel at home. Passing by I had always seen the two play areas facing the sidewalk but had no idea they had a few more in the back. I like how the dogs can be in the front and people watch out the large windows but also decompress in the back. The kennel area for overnights was also well-kept and organized. Also pleasantly surprised at each dog's locker and the staff's thorough physical checks of each dog and logging of their daily activities. I would say the only thing I had an issue with was logging into the webcam on my phone but seems to work on a computer. Also you can tell they use bleach from the smell but that is a good sign that they keep things sanitary. Other than that my dog seemed to enjoy his time there and we bought one of the packages so we will be back.

Our…read moremorkipoo has been seeing her since he was a puppy (he's now 4.5), and we still drive down from Orange County to San Diego just to have her groom him. We've tried other groomers closer to home, but no one makes him look as dapper as Julia. He gets compliments on his cut everywhere we go! Julia also knows so much about dog health and care--she's taught us things we never knew as first-time dog owners. Most of all, she truly cares about our pup, and he absolutely loves seeing her. Julia is simply the best--period.

Book your appointment ASAP you are in the best of hands. These girls know what they're doing. They've been in the game for a while thank me later.

Really happy with my experience here! Little Miss Onion Powder is very reactive and has difficult…read moretimes with grooming in the past. She has been rejected by other groomers and even mobile groomers, but Pet Beloved knew how to handle her reactivity, and did so with care and patience. Upon entering and signing in, they took her on a walk to let her get comfortable. They gradually built trust and also gave me a rundown of how short I would like her fur to be, as well as being transparent on how the matting for her poodle fur might cause the cut to be even shorter. I appreciated the headsup! Booking was easy and so was pickup. While it took longer than expected, they communicated with me and kept me updated, which is understandable knowing Onion's demeanor. Overall, very happy and would definitely recommend them!

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.

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.

Was eating nearby and decided to stop in to see if I can find something for my pup. There was a lot…read moreof stuff and it seems like a nice one-stop-shop for all your pup needs. I was pretty disappointed to see many of the same pup toys and supplies that you can find anywhere else, but for a higher price. The outfits they had were cute, but I couldn't justify paying $50 for a shirt (and yes, that's more than I would pay for myself). The woman that was working wasn't very friendly and looked like she would rather jump off a cliff than be there. Not encouraging, but I still decided to buy my pup a cookie. I didn't realize until he couldn't eat it that it was actually rock hard. He tried licking the frosting off, but I don't think he liked it because he barely had any. I was extremely disappointed. You wouldn't serve old/stale food to humans, so why would you do that for pups? Should've gone with my gut and not bought anything from here.

Doggie Style Pets is a cute little boutique pet store/pet groomer in Little Italy. I checked their…read morewebsite and they are a small-ish chain with 10 locations in Philadelphia, two in New Jersey in addition to the Little Italy location in San Diego. We were walking back to our car after a delicious breakfast at The Waterfront Bar and Grill when we happened by Doggie Style so we popped in. We're suckers when it comes to our two dogs Ozzy and T.J. They are two very spoiled girls! A few steps into the store was a big display of homemade (organic, I think) dog cookies. They were made with all natural ingredients such as sweet potato. We picked up two each for the doggos. Two Halloween themed and two ice cream themed, a cone and a bar. When we arrived home the dogs sniffed out the treats right away. Ozzy is a smaller dog with small teeth so we like to break her treats into smaller pieces. Holy crap! The Haloween dog bone cookies were hard as rocks! I had to chop them with a knife and it took some effort! T.J. is a big dog so she had no problem devouring hers. I can't speak to the grooming, but the variety of treats, toys and accessories for pets was impressive. A little on the pricey side, but that is to be expected in this type of bougie pet stor.
