The Good Pet Groomer - After grooming!! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Donita was a wonderful groomer! She clearly has a lot of experience with styling pooches and was very professional in making sure she knew what I wanted. My doggos are a pretty standard groom - nothing fancy - but I never quite know how to describe what I want. Donita knew exactly what questions to ask and showed me examples of how short their fur would be and was able to point to pictures of previously groomed dogs to figure out how I wanted their faces to look. I've been to several groomers and none have been so helpful and specific! I knew exactly what I'd be getting with Donita, and she made the whole experience very enjoyable. I have to give her props for handling my Pepper too. She's a Mix but Schnauzer through and through - not always the most friendly pup. Donita handled her beautifully! By far the most friendly and professional groomer I've ever met! Would happily bring my pups back! read more

Donita Jackson, owner of Pet Fabulous Grooming, works from her home or will come to your home to groom your pets (dogs or cats). She's been grooming my Coton de Tulear since he was a puppy and always does an amazing job. She's a true animal lover with three dogs and at least one cat of her own. I hope I never have to take my Nano to another groomer because Donita rocks and Nano has so much fun going over to her house and playing with her dogs. She will also provide pet-sitting/boarding in her home. She's super awesome! read more

I am so thankful I found Donita! After moving to Minneapolis, I was dreading the search for a new groomer for my Chihuahua. The online reviews for The Good Pet Groomer were great, so I reached out to Donita to set up an appointment. I cannot say enough good things about Donita, her team, and her shop after my first visit! She is so kind, personable, and knowledgeable. You can truly tell she cares about your dog as if they were her own. The location is convenient and easy to find, and the prices are fantastic for the care and quality of work. Donita is truly a blessing, I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for a groomer! read more

Called to get an estimate for my 18 week old Coton de Tulear. The reason why I called is based on the reviews and the photo I saw on yelp of a Coton that the owner had groomed in the past. She was friendly enough, but then I was put off by the fact that she wouldn't provide an estimate until she could see my dog (fine), but then changed her tune and said that she doesn't do Cotons because of the high maintenance coat and other Coton pet-owners' negligence in grooming in between visits in the past. Well ok then. Found a different place that didn't ask questions like "where was your puppy purchased" and seems happy to offer my 18 week old puppy his first groom. read more

Her personality and vibes are off the charts and I enjoy getting to visit her as well. Be respectful of her pricing and limits, she will do the best for your dog and treat them like her own in return. read more

We have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and are pretty new to owning and caring for a dog. I found Donita through yelp and the positive reviews on the site (because I didn't know where to start). He needed more care and grooming than we could provide. Donita got Bowie looking fabulous after his first visit and I'm sure it was quite a lot of work because he had matts and needed to be combed out and trimmed, etc. Now we are seeing her for maintenance and he looks great. Plus, she is sharing her knowledge of his breed and how to care for him. Donita is friendly, experienced, outgoing, and clearly loves dogs and what she does. Plus scheduling with her is a breeze. We plan to be regular customers. read more

I took my Rudy Cat for a shave to K9 & Kitty Kutters for the first time this last Tuesday. It was a wonderful experience! Megan is a remarkable lady full of patience, kindness, and know-how! No matter how crabby or grumpy the cat, Megan sees it as a challenge. Rudy was not pleased at the time of his visit but as soon as we got home, he started prancing around and purring loudly! As of this morning, he was still purring. Thanks again, Megan!! read more

Donita, the owner of The Good Pet Groomer, was so nice and kind to me and our cocker spaniel, Cooper. She truly loves dogs and her profession!!

Complete disappointment in the overall grooming. For starters, my dog tends to have some issues when it comes to grooming but always make sure the groomers are fully aware of what gets under his skin. When I first arrived, she didn't even get my name correct. It's Ashley and she kept calling me Emily. I was a little nervous about leaving my dog because while we were talking, she put her hat on and had a RAZOR inside of her hat. She played it off but I felt comfortable once i saw other people bring their dogs.. She asked what I wanted and I showed her pictures of what I did and didn't want. She said with all certity she would have no issues grooming him this way. When going over what the package included .. she informed me she was going to shave his privates. I asked her not to do so because my dog has very little hair down there. She picked up my dog and said "mommy doesn't want you shaved. I gotta remember that or I'll just shave". She said she was going to work on him until 11.30. Around 12 I get a text from the lady saying he was done. I texted back saying I would be around 20-25 minutes because I was leaving work to get there. She responded "no problem". I walked into the groomers and my dog was on the table. I asked why, thinking he was done over 30 minute ago and that's why she texted me. She responded with "I forgot to get the mats behind his ears. He bit me". I am under the impression that YOU are supposed to be grooming my dog and not remembering 30 minutes later that you "forgot" to get the matts. Clearly you didn't do a good job combing him in the first place or you would have found them. My dog was already put away and you brought him out again to keep working on him. At this point my dog is under the impression that you are done grooming him. He doesn't have a lot of patience as it is and I warned her about that. Before setting up my appointment I asked for pricing. She told me for small Pomeranian under 10 pounds it will be 40-60 dollars. When I arrive to pick him up, she said he was a medium sized dog and it would be min 60 and that was a favor because of his behavior. His haircut is the poorest, choppest job someone did with their eyes closed. Pictures can't show how messed up his fur is. I dropped him off expecting to have a clean bathed dog. Instead my dog had mats that had not been cut as asked, and a dirty face. Upset at the overall haircut and poor bathing job, I paid the 60 dollars and decided I was never going back. If it was a matter of my dog having a behavior issues I informed her to call me or stop. I would never expect someone to endanger themselves or my dog for a hair cut. As a professional .. if you think my dog had anxiety, you would recommend we take care of that or inform me when I picked him up.. Not just take a last jab at me cause you didn't like my post. I don't know how else to be more transparent about my dog than telling you before hand the issue other groomers had addressed to me. Never before had taking him to the groomers been such an ordeal. I take 100 percent ownership with my pup and if someone had brought it to my attention that he needed medication I would have taken him to the vet. Looking at my bank account today, she didn't charge me the correct amount (If there were fees associated with the credit card charge, let the customer know) I'm so upset and will be filing a claim with my bank if the incorrect amount posts to my account. I also really appreciate getting text messages from her after my review (attached). Will wait for my refund and take her up on her advice to see another groomer. read more

Donita is fantastic! She took such good care of our little Lu. Best groomer we have ever had!

Donita is a joy to leave your dog with! She cares and takes extra time to comfort your pet.

I am writing this review in regards of Megan who went out of her way to come in and give my maddy girl a lion cut.What a fine cut it was too! she has such a award winning personality with the patience of knowing that Maddy can be a real fire plug.the wife's cat will be going their for his lions cut in a couple of weeks. and to think that one of her competitors said that they might have to put Maddy under to do it. Megan saw it as a challenge customers for life thanks read more

Donita was very thorough and skilled at grooming. She was kind and built trust with Pogo. They seemed to be friends by the time it was done. Very reasonable rate. read more
