I use to take a cat here for grooming, last appointment i went in and it was alll new staff, no big deal however when my kitty came home she was riddled with flees. Customer service quality has gone way down and they don't ever return their voicemails, trust me ive left a few over the course of a few years with no callback once. read more

Always love bringing my doodle to Polished Pooch!! Service is top notch and my pup always comes out stunning

I'm sooo mad! I trusted them with my baby. Took 4 hrs to groom a 10 pound Maltipoo. If u schedule 6 dog on the same spot of course they have to wait. Poor Teddy can't stop liking himself in pain. EVERY PART OF HIS BODY is full with raiser burn, bruises PLEASE SEE MY PICTURES I ATTACHED THEM! This is ANIMAL ABUSE!!! Super disappointed!!! DO NOT TAKE YOUR PETS TO THEIR HORRIBLE PLACE U WILL REGRET THAT!!! Ps: I don't think any explanation from your side would/ will change the facts ( u can see it with your own eyes) My puppy went to the groomer 4 months ago, i scheduled him a month advance I expected u guys only groom him and focus on him when he has a appointment!!! When I entered your salon I saw 3 dog and when I picked him up ...more Maybe if u would let time for him this won't happen! Yes u show me 1 spot where he was bleeding Again only one not 8.... Can't believe that u tried to explain the situation after every other people can see the pictures... U think this is professional? Probably not... You can start to explain that to yourself not ME!!! Ps2: And yes other groomer made a great job, I moved from Tysons unfortunately I'll upload a picture of Teddy after her grooming U can tell how big is the difference. Best Regards, Bea read more

See all

Wardlee L is in Haymarket not California. I read another review that Tracy actually replied to saying the client was not in her data base. Believe me I have been going to the Polished Pooch for many years and am definitely in their data base. I left 2 phone messages and 2 email messages for Tracy to contact me and offer an apology for keeping my dog for 4 hours in a cage with no water. I haven't heard a thing from her and just believe that she has so much business that she doesn't need an old previously happy client. I have since found a groomer that does not keep my precious in a cage-- ever. And the whole process takes 1 1/2 hours.. drop off to pick up. They take too many dogs with the same appointment times and don't allow for matted dogs needing more time than a 25 pound well combed dog yet taking care of 3 matted dogs first. Yes still very unhappy. read more

The Polished Pooch - Pet Groomers Near Me - Haymarket, Virginia

This place is great! Everyone is so nice and genuine and they know their stuff! Whenever I drop off my fur baby, all the dogs look so good and cared after while they are getting their cuts. I take my babe to Hye Young Lee and she is amazing!! She loves dogs and I always know he will be taken care of when I drop him off. She takes her time and never cuts corners. She even suggests different hair styles we can try and all of the ones we have done have been amazing. I actually ended up following her from a previous groomer and never looked back! I highly recommend this place and will continue going there (even if it's 30 minutes out of my way) for the foreseeable future! read more

Brought my Golden Retriever for a trim for the first time! He looks awesome!! Smells great, too!

This place sucks! I took my puppy here and she had a cut next to her neck. The monster that brought her to me gave me a lame excuse that she was too wiggly, what in the world does that mean.. TOOOO wiggly, she's 10 months old and the sweetest little puppy, she's very calm wherever she goes or wherever she is at, but they over charged me cause supposedly she was too wiggly. NEVER EVER WILL I GO BACK TO THIS PLACE. I found a nicer more pet friendly groomer a bit further but at least my baby girl is happier. Believe me I would never leave you a review if it's a wrong place! It's a right place u can denial as much as u want DOESNT CHANGE THE FACT PLS DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT BECAUSE I HAD A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE AND MY DOG IS STILL IN PAIN .... read more

The maintained fee is and additional $25.00 per grooming so you better bring your pet in every 10 weeks or you'll be hit with that upcharge. I was refunded the price of the cut after I complained. read more

They do a great job! Took my Minature Schnauzer (Pepper) who was badly matted and they got him looking like a show dog in an hour. Minature Schnauzers are known rob be hard to groom in fact Petsmart won't even take them so I was very happy to find the Polished Pooch. Highly recommended. read more

Best groomer we've ever gone to! They did exactly what I asked for my goldendoodle, the price was one of the best I've found for him around here, and they were EXTREMLY FRIENDLY!

LIES!!!!! We have been using Polish Pooch for a while and they have been great until today! We were overcharged for the grooming service, the website states that dogs under 60 lb is $95 and our dog is 55lb, yet when we went to pay they charged us $110, which is the price for pets under 80 lbs as the website states. When we asked why we were being up-charged, they said it is not based off of weight (as the website states) )but it's based off of "hair". DO NOT USE THEM, THEY LIE AND WILL UPCHARGE YOU FOR THEIR SERVICES. Will never go back! read more

Called Tracy at Polished Pooch when we were in route to retrieve 2 rescue dogs. Both of the dogs were very dirty, in need of a nail trim, and smelly. Even on a busy Saturday around the holiday, she fit us in with such sweetness. My boys walked into her salon true rescue smelly things, cute , but smelly. An hour and a half later, trotted out sweet smelling, unbelievably soft clean pets w cute bandanas around their neck. read more

The Polished Pooch - Pet Groomers Near Me - Haymarket, Virginia

I have been bringing my two dogs here for a while because of the proximity to my home but today was the last straw. My husband and I both have very busy schedules, as do so many people who live in this area. They have never given us a time for a pickup for our dogs in the past that was accurate. But in the past, it would sometimes work out ok, not ideal but we dealt with it. It would make us angry and we would consider going somewhere else. At times it would take more than 4 hours to get our dogs done after their appt times. But we would try to be considerate to the business and give them credit. Today, was the straw that broke the camels back when the owner Tracy literally told me she was going to charge ME for the dogs being picked up late since they weren't ready at a reasonable time for pickup. Really??? My two dogs appt were made for 10:00 am this morning. I was out running errands around 1:20 (almost 4 hours after their appt time) and called to see if they were ready, no one answered, I left a message about picking up my dogs soon. No one called back. (many times no one calls back when you leave a message) At 3:20 ( 5 hours and half hours after their appt time) someone finally texts me to say they are ready. My husband and I were not in the immediate area to pick the dogs up right away since no one called back to at least give us an approximate time they would be ready. No one called until they were all ready to leave, as if we are both just sitting by the phone for 5 and a half hours a day waiting for them to finish with the dogs. We finally get there. Her own daughter, who works the reception sometimes, tells me it is usually a 3 - 4 hour pickup time after their appt time for two dogs. I told her it was 5 and a half hours later not 3 -4 hours. She charges me $40 surcharge for their mistake on keeping the dogs longer than they should have and I'm now late to pick them up. The only reason I did not get angry right that second with her was because she is a young adult and she's not the owner. I blame the parent, the adult, the owner, the person who should have been there to talk to me face to face about a surcharge that I should've actually charged them for the inconvenience in my day because of her inability to schedule her animals appropriately. So I paid because I knew I would call the owner momentarily and I didnt want to cause any stress to this young adult. Which by the way I think is cowardly on the owner's part to not be there and let her daughter deal with the customer. I called Tracy over the phone, the owner, and she proceeded to tell me that it is usually four hours for two dogs, (the estimated time got extended to a rigid 4 hours during this conversation). So I tell her it was 5 hours and a half today, to which she responds "that happens sometimes". She doesn't say, "I'm sorry for your inconvenience", like someone who owns a reputable business would say. Then I tell her I don't have all day to sit around and wait for your phone call or text for 5 hours and half. BTW, this isn't the first time my husband and I have had to wait over 5 hours + to pick up our dogs. Who knows if they are being taken out to go to the bathroom, given water, etc. The owner thinks its a joke to keep an animal for 5 and a half hours + for a grooming appt. Because the paying customer's time is not as important as her time. There are no update times for pickup or anything that would make sense to the paying customer. So I tell her I can't block off 5 hours and a half in the middle of my day to wait for a phone call to pick up my dogs. She responds "You must not care about them enough!" ... wow, this lady really needs a reality check, on life, customer service, so many things. To pretend to equate one with the other... Tracy has no idea what customer service looks like. She is completely unprofessional in her managing of appt times and dealing with customers when her business causes major delays to everyone's schedule. She obviously triple books her appts so if you schedule a morning appt you will likely see your dog in the late afternoon. That is unless enough people cancel or are a no show, then you'll have your dog ready within 2 hours. Lets not worry about the dogs sitting in these tiny cages waiting for 5 hours to go to the bathroom or get a sip of water. If you care about your dog or cat you will not bring them here. She only cares about the money. She should have admitted to the mistake she made today, the same mistake done several other times in the past, and should have apologized to me instead of charging me the additional charge for something SHE DIRECTLY caused. I will never come here again and will warn all of my friends and neighbors of this place. Not just because once again today she has disrupted my schedule, insulted me, blamed me, charged me, etc. Mostly because a business owner who can't take ownership for mistakes made by them doesn't deserve to be in business. read more

We were visiting the area and our Havanese needed a trim. Tracy was very friendly and I was able to send pictures of what Bailey should look like. They did a really nice job and Bailey was happy when we picked her up. I thought that the price was a little high but I am not familiar with what is normal for this in the area. Be aware that it is a little tricky finding the place especially with the construction. I would call ahead for detailed directions. read more

They did a great job on my malti-poo! We are new to the area and went because of the good reviews on here. I was very happy with the service and will be back! (Need to book in advance!) read more

Surprising location, but great work. The staff was very accommodating as I got stuck in traffic and was almost an hour late in picking up my dog. They stayed and made sure I was able to pick up my animal with little stress. read more

I have been going to Polished Pooch for over 3 years now . I live in Ashburn and still drive up to Haymarket to get my babies groomed. I will never stop going there. I adore Tracy , she takes care of my nuggets and always goes above and beyond for them and me . Thank you Tracy for everything you do for Oliver and Chloe ! LOVE YOU TO PIECES !!!! read more

I have used this groomer for 4+ years for my dog and several foster dogs. Excellent groomers, customer service and care has been taken at all times. Last year, Tracy alerted me to a swollen area under my dog's dark hair on her face,which turned out to be an abscessed tooth-so grateful for her observation! They have always been wonderful with foster dogs and these are dogs that we know little about and every experience has been great and no details in grooming are ever skipped. I have recommended them to several friends and neighbors who all are thrilled with their service. Tracy and her staff have always been very thorough in asking questions regarding services and they have exceeded expectations every time. Highly recommend!!! read more

PAY ATTENTION PROSPECTIVE CUSTOMERS!!!! If anyone has any concerns about the prevalence of 5-star reviews and absence of complaints as I did, fear no more :) These guys are the real deal. Tracy is a flat-out role model for customer service and the end result for our girls was amazing. They did exactly what we asked (and we're perfectionists) and I have no doubt that if there is any issue, they will absolutely get it right the next time around. Superstars in grooming........Polished Pooch is not just their name, it's what they do :) read more

Tracy did a wonderful job on our Shih Tzu puppy, Jack. She even had some homemade treats for him. I love the new location!

Tracy did a great job with our very matted Shih Tzu, Cowboy! We will be back!

Custumer service A+. Polished Pooch was a real lifesaver when we got our rescue dog. The poor dog smelled terrible and she was afraid to go up the stairs to be bathed at home. We called at 3 pm on a busy saturday afternoon, but when we explained the situation the folks at Polished Pooch kindly agreed to fit us in if we could bring her right away. She was fearful but they were patient and took good care of her. Our dog is a shorthair, but the long hair dogs we saw leaving the salon looked great in their new haircuts and all seemed calm and happy. There is no waiting area here, but it's a nice neighborhood to hang out in, with shops & cafes etc., and they will call you when the dog is done. read more

The grooming salon is wonderful. My dog has always hated going to the groomers, but with Tracy he gets excited to go! They are caring and loving and do a fabulous job. Always very conscientious. I have also, just recently used their boarding facility at their home. It is wonderful!!!!! Lots of land for the dogs to run, with your own personalized stay..depending on your dogs needs. The inside boarding facilities are very roomy and nice and her family all get involved in making the dogs feel welcome. Love It!!!!! read more

I started coming here about two years ago after the PetSmart grooming services made my puppy really sick (I'm assuming very unclean practices over there).

Tracy has high standards and she makes our dog look her best read more
