    Le Chien Fortune - Melo after his haircut! Him so cute!

    Nelson is the BEST dog groomer in the San Francisco Bay Area, possibly the United States of…read moreAmerica! Our dog, Billy is CRAZY sensitive. The only groomer Billy will let him touch his fur is Nelson! Nelson, the owner... of this fine establishment... is super personable, always has positive energy, caring and offers top-notch customer service! We highly recommend Le Chien Dog Spa!

    This review is way overdue! Our dog has been going to Nelson for 10+ years, since he was a young…read morepup. Now that he's older -- deaf, blind, cranky, and a bit more challenging to groom -- Nelson has never once complained or turned us away. Over the years, our dog's haircut has transitioned from a fluffy teddy bear face to a short, easy-maintenance style, and we've always been happy with the care and service provided. Communication is easy and straightforward. At drop-off, I usually remind Nelson about the specific areas that need extra attention, and he always gets the job done. Pricing is also very reasonable, especially compared to other groomers in the Millbrae/Burlingame area. Scheduling appointments by text is super convenient, and I especially appreciate the grooming and nail trim reminders since life gets busy. Turnaround time is quick too -- grooming is typically completed within 2-3 hours. I can't recommend Nelson more for your dog grooming needs! He's been caring for our dog for over a decade, and we truly appreciate the patience, reliability, and kindness he's consistently shown throughout every stage of our dog's life.

    I was a new client looking for a go-to spot for my two small Pomeranians. Unfortunately, I will not…read morebe taking them back. The groomer 1) did not follow directions, 2) charged me more than what was quoted, and 3) insisted I pay in cash or check. First, I asked the groomer not to cut my dogs' hair. When I got there to pick them up, I saw she cut both of them and it was super choppy. :( Second, when I called to make an appt, I was quoted $70-90 since my dogs are 5 and 6 lbs respectively. When I checked out, she said my dogs would be $120/each. Nowhere on the price list does it say $120, by the way. I said I didn't ask to get them cut, she said it was a touch up and she said they are medium size dogs. I'm like what? She pointed to the sign and said it's because they are over 12". I'm like huh? It's a 5lbs dog, but either way, I was quoted $70-90. She said she could do $110/each. At that point, I didn't want to argue about how small my dogs are, but I know they are not over 12". Then, when it came to payment, she said the credit card machine wasn't working, so I had to pay in cash or check. Who carries checks or cash nowadays? I asked if they take Zelle or Venmo, and she said no. Ultimately, I went to the ATM to get her the cash, but I walked away thinking-- what kind of establishment is this that doesn't have transparent pricing, quotes me one thing and demands another, and doesn't take any forms of digital payment? A part of me thought she was just going to pocket the cash. ‍ At the end of the day, it's not the price-- like I'd rather the establishment just say upfront that it's $120 and $30 is for gratuity if that's the case... at least I know what I'm getting.

The bleeding was substantial and not handled appropriately on-site, which is especially concerning given this was a mobile groomer operating independently. They did not inform us of the injury, nor did they trear the injury. We documented the injury with photos. We contacted the company to report what happened.

Sam made sure that Domingo was comfortable and looked after. He came out very squeaky clean and handsome. The agency is very communicative and comes to your own home.
