Yes, I took my almost 3 year-old golden retriever there for the first time and they were wonderful. The second time I brought her back for just a bath and she stayed very shed free for almost a month. I'm going to call tomorrow to make another appointment. read more

I have been a loyal customer of Salty Dog in Delray Beach for over 5 years and have always been satisfied with the grooming results. Today, I took in my Maltese and when I came to pick her up, whoever did the grooming on 11/19/24 did a complete hack job. My dog literally looks inbred and not like a dog. I expressed dissatisfaction to the Salty Dog owner Greg and I basically said, you don't honestly think she looks okay? Can you offer me a discount or something?" And his reply was, "sorry sweetie that'll be $65" UNBELIEVABLE! Did not even say sorry, did not offer to work with me on the cost, no offer to fix it... NO CLASS AND SO RUDE! They do not care about the customer here and I will never be bringing my dog here again. I've added photos so you can see how they butchered my dog. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE. I will mention my dog is a senior dog, has anxiety and isn't the easiest to handle. Be that as it may, what the owner should have done was if that was going to be an issue, or the groomer felt uncomfortable or knew they would not be able to cut my dog's hair properly, Greg the owner should have called me and told me to pick up my dog.... Not let the groomer continue the service with intent to charge me afterward with her looking that way! The owner should have called me to pick up the dog! Shame. read more

negative review- absolutely horrendous experience. be warned They cut my dogs hair after my husband explicitly said multiple times, do not cut his hair; only wash. The person at the front acknowledged that there will be no hair cutting what so ever, explicitly said not even the hair on his private parts, his toes, nothing. My husband picks up my dog and they cut down all his hair, including the mentioned toe, private parts etc. The manager said it was a "miscommunication". as a business owner it's his only job to make sure the dog gets groomed according to the owners request. I'm so absolutely disgusted, when I called to complain the owner hung up on me and said he will "refund". Which we have yet to receive. I will never ever take my dog here again, save yourself and your dog as they are not professional in the least ways. Save your cash as it's a cash business. read more

I just moved recently and was lucky to get a same day appointment at Salty Dog. Everyone I met was so nice and accommodating. Best of all-- the groomer did an amazing job on my Pom Pom! I sent them a picture of his normal cut and they were able to do it perfectly. He also smells amazing! Thank you! We will definitely be back! read more

What a great job they did on my baby. I decided to try someplace new because PetSmart takes almost 4hours and was upcharging me all over the place.

I have been coming here for at least 2 years now every 6 weeks or so for my doodle. I have been recommending them to everyone and now my other dog (originally my fiance's dog) comes here also. We love it because they are in and out in 2 hours or less and no crates or anything. Always a good experience and a very good job!!!. Reasonably priced as well!! read more

The prices were great, the experience was NOT! Woman- beware of the SALTY bad tempered owner who thinks he's right & won't listen to a customer! I called & made a 1st time appt. I was NOT made aware on the call that it was cash only . I've been to a bunch of pet grooming across the country on my travels and where I've lived. This isn't my first rodeo. I planned my day around drop off/pickup time which clearly says 5pm on Google and their fb page (which their website forwards to). I planned a 4:45pm pickup but having to stop at an atm added a bit more time, as I also have a toddler, which adds more time to anything you do. I was called several times around 4ish to pick my dog up saying I was late. I was again out running errands and finally said to the man on the phone- "Don't you close at 5pm? " "No- we close when the last dog is done." "I'm so sorry I wasn't made aware of that when I booked the appt, nor when I dropped her off. Unfortunately I'm out and not close as I planned on 4:45pm - with what your website & Google says. I also wasn't made aware of the cash only until I got there so now I need to add time for an atm. I'll be there around 5pm- I'm sorry, it is what it is, but if I had been made aware of this earlier - this wouldn't have happened." " Really?! WOW!" "OK bye". I hung up as I wasn't going to be shamed & blamed for their lack of communication & disorganization. I pulled up to pick her up, and again apologized and repeated if I had been made aware of this on the phone at booking- he proceeded to scream at me, over top of me speaking, yelling how there's signs posted everywhere on the cash.. screaming!!!! I'm sorry- our PHONECALL wasn't video and I wasn't aware I could SEE through a phone so why didn't your receptionist say all of this upon booking?!! It ALL would've been avoided. He was screaming the entire time that I finally yelled back- give me my dog and I will be posting on what a disgusting personality you have, and absolutely HORRIFIC EXPERIENCE!!! This guy is CRAZY. Women beware- he has a complex on he thinks he's right and NO respect for a customer or a woman. And after reading the other reviews- he just has NO respect for other people, and this is a common thing. He has anger issues. I was excited to support local & small but this was ridiculous AND the place was a dump. NOT clean at all. read more

The good: The receptionist is great. I like how she asked specific questions regarding what I wanted for the cut. The not-so-good: Over the phone I asked for the price of a complete groom for a 8 pound Maltipoo & they said $65. In person they said $75. New clients get 20% off so I went along with it. Most important thing: my dog did not look cute at the end. She looked like she had a horseshoe/biker mustache. They did try to make it rounder when I brought it up but I had to cut the hair around her face at home. Thankfully I brought her back to full cuteness. The groomer may not have the skill or eye for how to shape hair so I wouldn't recommend for doodle mixes. read more

Top Notch! Greeted with highly energetic and compassionate staff with good ideas about bathing, haircuts and recommendations. This is a cash only setup so bring cash or make an ATM run. Overall great and lightning fast experience. They were in and out within 2 hours and even have a $5 off coupon when you check in with your YELP account. We will definitely go back here. Great prices on haircuts, glands and nails. and overall felt extremely confident they get it THIS place just gets it RIGHT! read more

I have searched for a new groomer since my moved out of the state, and they have exceeded my expectations. They were the first groomers (of four groomers) to listen when i asked them to be careful with my fur babies lymphomas, as other places have cut her badly before. Her groom came out perfectly, and she looked happy and not scared when i went to pick her up. read more

Highly recommend! I was nervous to bring my little barky boy in here for a nail trimming because he's not a huge fan of big dogs. The staff was super friendly and went right up to my pup and made him feel safe. Nail trimming was quick, fairly priced, and good quality. They even squeezed him in on short notice. It is cash only so be sure to bring cash with you. I will definitely be going back. Oh and go birds! read more

BEWARE - golden doodle owners!!! (before and after pictures) i brought my beautiful mini golden doodle in for the second time. i am absolutely heartbroken and devastated with what they did to my dog. this was the worst experience i've ever had with any groomer. i told greg i wanted a LIGHT trim, her head evened out, and a bath. when i picked up my dog, i wanted to cry. bear's beautiful curly coat which we have worked SO HARD to maintain and bring back was GONE. her head was extremely pooffy, ears were uneven and so big compared to her now shaven down body. she had one and only one small mat on her tail that i figured they would take the extra time and care to brush out but instead they shaved and ruined her tail. it looks like a lion tail. a complete shame. her nails were not even or filed and actually hurt when she's on my lap. I went back the next day they were open and wanted answers for what they did to my dog. Greg was extremely unprofessional and arrogant. I pointed out the tail, the toe nails, the body, her ears, everything that went wrong! i asked him what he wrote down for his notes from our consultation. we had a of a "consultation" where i explained what i wanted done with my golden doodle. the notes from all that was "PUPPY#4 haircut" i'm sorry WHAT? i explained exactly how i wanted you to care for my dog and all you wrote down was #4 haircut?! and then you guys do exactly the opposite of what i asked specifically for? NO one and i mean no one believes that my dog is a golden doodle. when i asked greg and the groomer monique if this looked like a golden doodle- greg went silent and monique said "really? i thought she was a mini poodle?!" YOU GUYS DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT BREED OF DOG YOURE GROOMING?! greg and monique went back and fourth who groomed my dog because she didn't even remember cutting my dog the LAST day they were open. I asked how we are going to ammend this, even the groomer agreed her tail is going to take a very long time to return. Greg, unprofessional, unapologetic taking no ownership of the work simply said "well, i'll have to change the notes." Sorry Greg but that doesn't fix the unprofessional work and unacceptable work that was done. Not to mention your "notes" were never correct to begin with. Bottom line is I never asked for my dog to look at all like this. dog owners- stay away! they won't even remember your dog days later! and they don't recognize their own work. there's way too many groomers that take pride in their work and will actually LISTEN to dog owners. stay away. I thought the first groom went great and now they ruined my dogs coat. Careful you're probably one TERRIBLE haircut away with these people. no amends were even tried to be made, no apology or anything, just silence and excuses. you guys should be shut down. read more

Glad I followed my fellow Yelpers' recommendations. Made an appointment for my husband to take my doodle for a grooming. Since I could not be there, neurotic me insisted my husband take photos and grooming notes to give to groomer. They were very gracious and did not kick my husband and dog to the curb. So sorry I doubted you Salty Dog! You did a great job, did not make her look like a poodle or Frankenstein. read more

I just moved back to South Florida & I randomly called Salty Dog and booked an appointment for my 2 year old chocolate lab, Gunnar. I wanted to find a local mobile groomer to be honest, but couldn't find a mobile groomer appointment this week so randomly found Salty Dog on a Google search. My pup has bad separation anxiety & I was really worried about him because he's gone through a lot of change recently with our cross country move. Greg was not only extremely kind to me but had such good energy & was authentically welcoming! He made me smile after having a pretty bad day and despite both Gunnar & I having visible anxiety, he put my mind at ease. A big reason I chose Salty Dog is because the dogs aren't caged here. This is very important to me, as my guy is never caged / crated. Another big plus was the appt was around an hour and a half max, which is perfect as other groomers keep the dogs caged up for hours and that's not the experience my boy needs. Also, another nice add on, every customer / client I met walking into the establishment was super friendly! Lastly, Gunnar looked so fresh & clean upon picking him up and although he couldn't wait to leave, he was in good spirits & happy! I will definitely be back & I highly recommend Salty Dog! Oh and thank you to Greg for my Salty Dog branded car air freshener & magnet! read more

Needed to find a new groomer since ours for many, many years moved north. We are very picky about the look of our Bichonpoo and Salty Dog came highly recommended. Salty Dog did not disappoint.

Very sad to say I won't be using them anymore. They did a great job on my dogs cut and my dog loved going. But lately they've been drinking when I pick him up amidst a cloud of vapor (didn't smell like just nicotine either). My dog came home with a small injury which they tended to but couldn't explain. I think they're very nice but sadly, it just doesn't feel like the safe place it once was. Please be careful and be sure to check it out and choose thoughtfully. read more

Our first visit based on Other Yelp reviews and glad we did. They were very welcoming and comforting. Their prices are reasonable and did a great job on our two puppies. Very happy with the entire experience. Just a note they only accept cash or check so be aware. We will definitely be back. read more

Visiting family for Christmas and brought along my dog. Had time on my hands so made a few calls seeking a dog groomer. Salty Dog squeezed me in 2 days before Christmas. They gave my 10 year old Yorkie the full spa treatment and did so with TLC. You see my dog is a rescue. He was living in a home where there was domestic violence. He incurred numerous injuries and is frightened easily. Finding a groomer who can knowledgably accommodate a trauma survivor's special needs with compassion and skill is a challenge especially in a community that is foreign to you. Couldn't be happier with our experience. They communicated with me by text, charged a reasonable amount and finished quickly. Really wish this groomer could be my regular one but I live in New York. For all of you SoFlo ressies seeking a competent and compassionate groomer-- stop looking and book your appointment now. read more

I brought my Havanese in to be groomed. They were supposed to cut off an inch. They called & said she needed to be trimmed a little more because she had mats. When I picked her up she had been shaved. She has shave burns near her stomach. I called the owner he never responded. BEWARE do not go there!!!! read more

This is the best groomer I have ever been to over years and years of having dogs and living in many places. Not only do they love the dogs they learn their personalities and make sure separate hyper dogs from dogs that can't handle it. I have no anxiety leaving my pup here, unlike most groomers I have used. Highly recommend. They do a beautiful job cutting! read more

Great location, great price, and I like that the dogs are kept in the front, instead of a cage while they are waiting to be picked up. Wonderful cut, and my dog's ears had little bows affixed: too cute!Also, from the front you can see into the grooming area; I appreciate the transparency. I was so heart-warmed, too, when I got my dog today from her grooming. My dog was deeply traumatized by a different groomer in the area the last time we took her: she was cut and bled. She was so disturbed, after that experience she developed a fear of going in the car (which she has always loved) and ran from this new groomer's door in fear when we arrived and she smelled where we were. But, unlike when I picked her up from the former groomer where she was trembling and crying, today when I picked up my dog she was smiling, happy, and clearly felt good. I had been so nervous to have her groomed because of what happened at the former groomer. If you've had a similar bad experience elsewhere, this is a good place for a restorative experience for your dog to get a quality, affordable cut. read more

What a a great experience from appointment to pick up at SALTY DOG SALOON. My boy WINSTON was groomed so awesome today. I LOVE his haircut. I am impressed with a timely manner they operate as well. My little man usually comes home from groomers skittish, not this time, he was the same chipper self when I picked him up. He was groomed exactly the way I requested from length of coat to shape of ears. Wonderful experience and priced extremely fair. This is a great hidden gem in Delray Beach. Thank you!! Great job. read more

Brought my dog Tiffany here for the 1st time to get a grooming and I love it!Communicated quickly with them through text to book an appointment and they answered all my questions and concerns. The building is small but as soon as you walk in you know they all care about the dogs. They have very reasonable pricing and I love that the dogs wait in a little area all together (as long as they get along), and are not stuck waiting in cages. This is Tiffany's new monthly groomer. read more

I never leave bad reviews, but I must purely for dogs' safety, and at my friends' urging. My dog has been going there for a few years, but something is now off and my dog doesn't want to go at all. I told the owner not to cut anything on my dog, just behind the ears a little, yet the dog came out with the entire front ear cut (see pic below). Texted owner this picture. He told me to come in to get it fixed. I show up there. When I get there....he insists they didn't cut anything on the front of the ear. It has clearly been cut. Then he asks me to show him a picture of her before she arrived, questioning that I'm telling the truth! I couldn't even believe it. I told him I see her every day, and there's no way her ears looked that way unless they were cut, but I still showed him a picture. I told him a dog's hair doesn't grow in a straight line like this. He hoists her up on her hind legs very rough, which makes me worried because she has had operations on her back legs, to show me something. I have no idea why he did that to the dog to show me something on her ear, but my dog looked terrified. He finally admits he had to trim an area to frame the ear properly, after first denying he even cut it. Then he tells me after telling me to come in, we shouldn't touch it, it will make it look worse. He tells me to look at the bottom of her ear how the hair doesn't grow there. Says she doesn't look like a normal golden retriever. (She is!) Meanwhile, my dog is clearly TERRIFIED OF HIM and is quaking next to him and he's trying to kiss her. She's desperately trying to get out of the holding area to me. WE ARE DONE, he lied at first, then admitted it and finally to try to cover up the bad cut called my dog abnormal. Not sure why he had me come in to "fix it." What a ****show. Most unprofessional behavior ever. And... most mellow dog on the planet is scared of him. I did NOT like how he handled her one bit. No wonder she was so scared. read more

Yesterday was our 1st time using the Salty Dog, and we have to say - not only are we very impressed, but extremely pleased.. The owners of the place made us feel like part of the family, as did all the employees.. It's nice to see a place run with such professionalism, but more importantly, passion! We brought in Bella & Bailey (it's been almost 2 months since their last grooming -- sorry), and they came out clean cut and smelling like a dream.. They did a fantastic job on our pups and since we're buying a home in the area, we have definitely found our new groomers!!! We're super happy and highly recommend the Salty Dog! read more
