    Love this place, they do such a great job with my dog EVERY time we come here, and they always work with my crazy schedule. My dog loves to get in the car and come here; and she always comes home a happy (GREAT smelling) girl. My dog is an extremely bad shedder especially when she is blowing her coat, and they do a great job of cleaning her up for me. Thank you guys so much!

    Emma from Pooch Parlor did this lovely grooming!

    This is my second review for Pooch Parlor. I just have to say this loud and clear! They are the best groomers I've ever encountered. I've had dogs for over 40 years. So we have seen our share of groomers. I've found the best. My groomer is by far the most educated and experienced in the field. But here's another bright spot. When Emma had to take a leave. She was able to make sure one of the other groomers were able to take her place while she was gone.. she made sure she knew all about my fur baby and all her needs. She looks amazing.. so I didn't have to worry about her looking different. Even though it's in Windsor, it's definitely worth the extra couple miles. So if you can't get in with Emma, Sarah is also very good.

    Katy made my puppy malitpoo looks like a million dollars. She was fast, professional and kind! Thank you Katy and The Pooch Parlor!

    Highly recommend this new groomer in Windsor. While the business is recently opened, the groomers are highly trained and have experience. You can't go wrong. I drive from Santa Rosa every three weeks to have my toy poodle beautified. They are trained with the grooming standards of many breeds. Large and small.

    So, having adopted a puppy this summer, I'm new to the dog grooming world. My pup was starting to look like a ragged Rastafarian, so I was eager to find someone pronto. A fellow groomer booked solid for month recommended Pooch Parlor. Our terrier mix is very skittish with new people, so I was a bit nervous. I shouldn't have worried. Tamara put my pooch at ease right away and off he went without so much as a wimper. I was elated to return to a clipped, clean, and happy pup donning the cutest little bandana. A great new business in Sonoma County!

    Thanks so much to Ashley, she does our 2 Golden girls regularly and she did both on Fri. Our girl Breezy whose 10 months was going over to the Wine Country Kennel Club show in Napa for fun and to see how she'd do, well take a look below! Several very accomplished Breeders commented on how well she was groomed. One of them had a winner at Westminster this year. Can't get a better recommendation than that!

    If I could put 0 stars I would. I took my pup in today and as I was waiting for her to be finished I heard her screaming and crying really bad? So I got up to see what was going on, and I see that the groomer sadie was being very aggressive with trimming my pups nails, she had her arm up wayyyy to high up, damn near bending it. I tell the girl in front I don't want her to cut her nails she's hurting her. And she goes back to tell the groomer and the groomer says "she's fine she's almost done" like what the hell are you kidding me?!! I said stop so stop. Obviously she wasn't fine if she was screaming. Dogs don't scream for no reason. Sorry. Then she proceeds to blame me for my dogs crying!? Saying she's crying because she sees me. But the reason why I stood up from my chair (which my pup could not see me in) in the first place was because I HEARD HER SCREAMING CRYING and the groomer telling her to stop crying? I don't think they treat the dogs there well at all. I heard them yelling at other dogs very aggressively to stop moving or whatever. Instead of trying to console them and calm them down nicely. Obviously they don't know how to treat animals. I wish I didn't pay a dime to that damn company. NEVER AGAIN. They should be shut down. UPDATE: my dog is literally traumatized. She will not come out from behind the couch. Only god knows what else they did to her before I got there... She's been in this spot ever since we've gotten home. It's breaking my heart... she doesn't trust me anymore because I took her to that horrible place without knowing about the horrors that go on behind those doors!

    The after look!

    My girl was in need of a haircut! I was able to get her in two the next day after reaching out and requesting an appointment. Very very happy with the grooming job done by Tamara. I will definitely be back to her, she did perfect on what I was looking for.

    Took my little girl there today for a little pampering and had a wonderful experience. Everyone was so sweet and very understanding about her being 14 years old, deft and blind. I didn't want her in a kennel because she had no idea where she was and would be very scared. They took her straight in and called me as soon as she was ready so I could come get her. The groomer did a great job and just loved her. I was very pleased and will definitely go back again. Thanks girls.

    See all

    I normally do not leave negative reviews, but this experience left me genuinely disappointed…read more We brought our puppy to The Dog and Hydrant for three grooming visits total. During the very first visit at only around 3 months old, they mentioned he was somewhat difficult around the face/head area and were unable to fully complete the trim. Fair enough -- he was a very young puppy experiencing grooming for the first time. What makes this situation frustrating is that his second visit went completely fine. They successfully completed his undercarriage, face, and head trim with no issue reported at all. On this third visit, we were told he was "wiggly" and somewhat mouthy specifically around face trimming. We were also informed he chewed on a few nearby things, including the groomer's hair. While I absolutely understand puppies can be energetic and require patience during grooming, this is still a young dog in the acclimation stage -- not an aggressive adult dog with a history of dangerous behavior. More concerning was that his nose was nicked during the appointment, and immediately afterward we were told prescription sedation would now be mandatory for any future grooming visits. That recommendation felt excessive and honestly alarming considering the circumstances. Suggesting sedation for a puppy because he was wiggly during face grooming raises serious concerns for me about patience, handling expectations, and experience working with young dogs still learning the process. To be clear, the cut is passable and the front desk staff was polite and professional. My issue is more with the overall handling philosophy and escalation to mandatory sedation after what sounds like fairly typical puppy behavior. We will unfortunately be taking our business elsewhere.

    I cannot recommend Cathy's Holistic Spaw enough. From the very first interaction, Cathy was…read moreincredibly kind and accommodating. She fit us in quickly because my black lab has surgery coming up this Wednesday, which I really appreciated. What truly sets her apart, though, is the care and understanding she shows for each dog. My fox red lab is extremely nervous around people. She usually barks, cowers, and takes a long time to warm up. Cathy generously offered for me to bring her in just to spend time in the space with her, her husband, and their dogs, purely to help her feel more comfortable. The moment we arrived, I could tell this place was special. The space is beautiful and clearly designed with dogs in mind, and Cathy herself is just lovely. Almost immediately, my nervous pup, who usually barks at everyone, was calmly approaching her, sniffing her hand, and even taking treats without making a sound. I was honestly amazed. I left feeling completely at ease, knowing both of my dogs were in the best possible hands. Cathy kept me updated throughout the entire visit, not only about my black lab's groom, but also about my other pup who wasn't even there for a groom. She simply took the time to help her build comfort and trust for future visits, which is something you just don't see often. When I came back, my black lab looked perfect, and both dogs were happy, relaxed, and honestly didn't want to leave. That says everything. People like Cathy are truly special. This is absolutely our place from now on.

    She did a great job and you can just tell she works well with animals. So appreciate this service!read more

I think the last time they saw my dog was around Covid time. However, I think their service is very reasonably priced. I will also say I think they did a fun great job with my pup.

They did not check to make sure dogs are up to date on shots. Not good. Dog owners should be asked to show proof. Thank god my dog is all up to date on shots, who knows if there is a dog with parvo or something. I brought a blanket for my little 6 lb rescue service dog so he could have it in his kennel while he waited. it was tossed on the floor in all the hair from all the other dogs and when they put him in the kennel the did not put his blanket with him. I found it hanging over the railing in front. I was not happy. I was not happy at all with his hair cut either. $95.00 not worth it. and why only cash or check??? They need to be more professional. Clean up all the hair as they go clean after each grooming of each dog. sweep or vacuum. I wanted my dog out of there so bad I reluctantly handed her a $100.00 bill and walked out. Just terrible.
