    My two elder kitties had extremely long claws that I couldn't cut for them. The lovely people from Sunflower gave me fantastic service. The claw trimming was quick and easy. They were gentle and kind to my cats, were timely in arrival, and communicated clearly about the appointment. I appreciate their professional behavior and truly compassionate care of my pets.

    We've been taking our English bulldog to see Miranda for a couple of years now. It's wonderful to see how much love Miranda shows to our dog and in return how much our dog loves her. We trust and know our dog will always get the best care from her. Wonderful experience for our dog.

    Buttercup right after being groomed

    I took my dog Buttercup here for the first time recently and our experience was great! I love that the salon takes their time with each pet and doesn't rush the process. They also did a really good job with Buttercup's haircut and their customer service is excellent.

    This is only my 2nd time visiting (and 1st time at their new location), however I HIGHLY recommend this pet salon. My dogs had never been to a professional groomer prior to Sunflower Pet Salon, however they are very sensitive to the pet's needs and take their time to work with even the most anxious dogs. They give breaks when the pet needs it or gets overly stressed. That being said, be prepared to let your pet be there for a few hours, especially if you have a large dog like mine or your pet needs heavy deshedding. I don't mind because they're in good hands! They have very reasonable pricing (I've compared and worked in the animal care/pet industry previously), and make accommodations for specific needs. Miranda is super friendly and very caring toward the animals. Also, she is transparent about timing. I love their new location because they're next to/paired with a boarding facility, which is super convenient and I plan to use in the future! Thank you so much to Miranda and her team.

    Second Visit of my girl and her snowflake bandanna

    Ive been here twice so far and I will continue to come back! They make sure that all my concerns are met which is especially important when raising a Frenchie. Kirshna always makes my girl look and feel her best with a cute bandanna to match! Their pricing is so budget friendly in comparison to anywhere I have been. This is my permanent salon!

    If you're looking for a great groomer, give this pet salon a try! This team always fits my cat in for a nail trim, and we even got a bath once. My cat who is a terror to do any of these things for at home, loves the team at The Sunflower Pet Salon and behaves. They were nice enough to provide me with photo evidence of him behaving with the blow dryer - apparently his favorite part. This salons Facebook page reflects their prices which I think are very reasonable. They get back to you very quickly and work with your schedule. I work a typical Monday - Friday, getting off at 5PM so a lot of the pet store salons didn't work with my schedule. It was made worse that most of them share a cat groomer who comes in on a random weekday at like 1PM. Finding this place was a stroke of luck! I highly recommend and I continue to use them as my preferred groomers.

    Miranda and her team are PHENOMENAL. I adopted my dog a few years ago and she was extremely reactive to getting her paws clipped/trimmed. I was so stressed because my dog wouldn't let me or anyone near her paws and felt like it was hopeless. However, Miranda has restored confidence in both me and my dog; she did so well with being patient with us and I'm so happy to say that for over 2 years now, the pawdicures go so well. I cannot express how grateful I am for Miranda and her always going out of her way to make sure we are all comfortable with our visits. I've moved around NorCal a few times but will ALWAYS make the trip to Carmichael for the most caring pet salon. 5/5 paws no doubt!

    After her appointment.

    See all

    I brought my Maltese Poodle mix here after several months of not being groomed. She was in bad…read moreshape. Kaylee didn't make me feel bad about it and did an excellent job. My dog came home very happy and looking good.

    We've been bringing Frankie here for a while. Most times she comes home with an excellent cut,…read moresometimes the cut was a little crooked, however, she's very hyper and I'm sure wiggles. I had no problem with the price and work and always left a generous tip. Frankie started shaking when we showed up for recent grooming and seemed terrified to go in and especially to go behind the counter. I thought that kind of odd. The last time I picked her up the owner and groomer of Frankie began to whine and about to cry telling me what a tough time she had. She's done this before but this time it was very unprofessional. She complained that the cut we wanted was difficult and took her too much time. In the beginning if she found a problem she would call and I would tell her to go ahead and groom her anyway she needed to resolve an issue. I don't know why this was not the case. I don't know what happened to Frankie to make her dislike going to Gentle Touch and just fear it's because of the frustration the groomer projects when grooming her. Hopefully it was just that but still I fear it may have been more. Like I said the work is mostly exceptional but the way she whines about a job that frustrates her is very unprofessional. We are easy going people and it takes a lot to bother me but this certainly does. I've read other peoples reviews that stated they felt guilt after she tells them of a difficult groom. I'm paraphrasing of course. She would do well not to show her emotions to her customers. I've taken Frankie to a new salon and the two girls are so wonderful with them and show genuine love for clients pets. I won't say where I'm taking them now because that would not be appropriate in this review. I do wish Gentle Touch well and appreciated the majority of their service. I just think SHE can do better with her clients. I'm sure I'll get some long retort from this as that seems to be the case with most people with a complaint on here. Good day all.

When it's that' time, I take her in to the groomer. I called in earlier in the week and explained the situation, I also explained that at this point, she is 15 years old. I was told, bring her in on Saturday, and we will take a look at her. We will groom her if we feel it is safe to do so. They had me bring her in at 7 AM. I had absolutely no problem with that whatsoever, because they wanted to get her groomed before all of the dogs start coming in. I thought that was very nice of them. Less stress. I brought her in, and I was met by Sherry. Sherry was very friendly, and she listened to what I had to say, she looked the cat over, and said that it could be done. We decided on a "lion cut" where the head stays the same, and there is a "poof" at the end of the tail. They offer a bathing along with the grooming, but the last time I was here, they recommended not to do it because of her age. They felt it would be too stressful. That was very nice of them to advise me of that. So again, this time, a bath was off the table... About an hour later, I got a call from Sherry. Willi was all done. Sherry told me that she handled the grooming very well. Five years ago, the price was $60, this time, it was only $85, plus a nice tip, of course. That's not a bad price increase for five years. To keep their prices down, they do not take plastic, it's just cash or check. If Willi needs another grooming down the road, she will be back. if this is it for her, and somewhere down the road, I get a new kitty, that kitty would also come here. Thank you again for all your kindness.
