Charming shop, but prices made it a one-time visit…read more Doggy Style is undeniably cute--a tiny boutique with a cozy, neighborhood vibe. When I visited, there were six customers and a couple of dogs inside, which made the space feel quite full. It's definitely a spot that draws in pet lovers. The selection is impressively diverse, with everything from treats to accessories, and it's clear they've curated their inventory with care. That said, the prices were surprisingly high across the board. While I appreciate the quality and variety, it's not somewhere I'd return regularly based on cost alone. If you're looking for specialty items or just want to browse a unique pet shop, it's worth checking out. But budget-conscious shoppers might want to keep that in mind before visiting.

The cake was beautifully crafted, thoughtfully designed, and the customizable colors (red and white for our girl's "colors") added a personal touch that made it feel beyond truly special.

It became such a fun and special highlight for our darling girl. We couldn't be happier and will definitely be ordering again for future events. Highly recommend this bakery!!! We can't wait to order again!

They're in the Clarendon area and the best way to access them is street parking or by foot since it's a busy area. I was able to snag a 15 minute parking that's right outside the building and it was a fast delivery :). Thank you to Mrs. And Mr. Wang for the best birthday treats we could've asked for!

I have mixed feelings about district dogs after the major incidences at some of their other…read morelocations (the flooding and animal abuse). I've only had a handful of challenging incidences with them at the Clarendon location but overall have had a very good experience. Cons: -I had to pick up my dog earlier one day (forcing me to leave work) because my dog was deemed aggressive/nippy. When I asked for footage they said they didn't have any available to show me. Yet they have a camera available in their playrooms? An incident like this never happened again. -they're somewhat poor at answering phone calls. They should have someone available at their front desk at all times but this isn't the case. Pros: -located very close to work for me -hours are long so it works great for someone like me who may get off work later in the evening. -positive experience with puppy training here with Matt!

A daycare should be a place you feel comfortable dropping your pet and they are supervised/ owners are notified of medical emergencies. In this case my pet went hours without medical attention and now may require surgery.

I understand that things happen but what really made me upset is the dismissiveness of the situation. I called and spoke to an employee about the situation and he advised me to email pictures of my dog's face. I did so to his email address twice and a general email address, and I never got a response. Even if he did I not get the emails (not sure how he could have not), some type of follow up would have been considerate. I don't appreciate the incident with my dog being dismissed, especially since I paid $140 for his grooming. I would have appreciated more kindness in the situation. I will not return and have found a new groomer.

Things change over time. Staff move on, services and prices alter. As of January 2026, I would…read morerecommend Capitol Kitty, but I'd advise you to be cautious. I was comparing places online for cat grooming services. I saw a kennel in Arlington, and almost booked an appointment, but I was very put off by the tone of the intake process. You know the cliche of the snobbish waiter at a fancy restaurant? It was as if they were saying "you would be lucky if we condescend to accept your money". So, I looked at a few other websites, and ended up calling Capitol Kitty. It's been my experience that lots of businesses don't keep their website up to date, and I've been burned by that sort of thing recently. I called, and a very pleasant woman answered, Gloria. I read the menu of services and carefully confirmed what was included and what the cost was. The site says something to the effect that there is a surcharge for paying with a credit or debit card. That to me has a feeling of being sort of shady. Look, I get it that it's very expensive for a small business to have a merchant account, and I get it that they have to pay a transaction fee for each sale. Still, it just felt a little off. You can judge for yourself. Maybe they're dealing in cash to dodge taxes, who knows. I'm not accusing, I'm just saying it's unusual. Gloria asked me more than once if the cat was violent. Again, I get it. If a cat is prone to scratch or bite, you want to know that in advance, but asking more than once implies that I'm lying about my cat, which is annoying. I got an overall pleasant vibe from Gloria (I think she is the owner) and I asked to book an appointment. Gloria said she'd have to check on the availability of their groomer, and get back to me. So, it's not necessarily bad if they are farming out grooming services to a third party, but some people might find that a worry...who, ultimately, is insured and responsible? I booked the appointment, and the day I was to go, I got a call from someone early in the day. Unfortunately, I don't remember her name. She was sort of nervous...which made me nervous. Some people just don't do well dealing with customers, and a lot of busineses don't train staff well, or at all, these days. Not a huge deal, but she repeated, more than once, Gloria's question about whether or not my cat would bite or scratch. That indicates a lack of effective internal communication within the company, and you may find that worrisome. This woman, though friendly, gave me more of the slightly "shady" vibe, when she confirmed which services I wanted, and then she quoted a price higher than Gloria and the website stated. Now, I have a very sharp temper, especially when I think someone is trying to rip me off, but I kept calm. I pulled up the website and read the service and price to her, and I said that Gloria had confirmed it....suddenly her attitude completely changed, and she backpedaled saying that Gloria had given me "a discount" and she would honor that....as if I were getting a special favor, not just what is the advertised price. Again, slightly shady vibe....she then told me I would have to pay in cash because "our system is down". Well, the service was going to be ninety bucks for a shampoo and nail trim, but okay, I could bring that much cash. You may find that questionable, you may suspect this was a ploy. I didn't care especially. Weirdly, about twenty minutes later the woman called me again, still with a very nervous voice, to say I could pay with a credit card after all. I decided to bring the cash just in case, if their "system" was really that unreliable. The day of the appointment, I arrived slightly early and met the groomer. She was the only person there. The business is located in a narrow brick building, so a bit small, but very clean. It had a very strong "mom and pop" DIY feel, but not in a bad way. Several cats were in locked cages, and they all looked very content, a good sign. The woman told me that we had plenty of time, as there were not any appointments booked after mine. She then began to explain to me what she would do, and how, and why....which I liked, a lot. For example, we started with the nail trimming. She explained that if the cat is going to squirm during the bath, you want blunt nails. Makes sense. The room was very dimly lit, just some winter sunlight from a window, but the woman was very quick and accurate trimming my cat's nails. Clearly experienced. All through the entire process she spoke soothingly to my cat. I don't think it made any difference in his stress level, but I think this was a very kind and proactive thing to do. Before she bathed him she made a point of showing me the bottles of shampoo and conditioner, so I'd know it was hypoallergenic. Again, proactive, professional, caring. if you want to read my full review email me directly Xham6690 at yahoo

DO NOT TAKE YOUR DOG TO BE GROOMED AT BONNIE'S Since…read morechanging ownership around Labor Day, I have taken my dog to Bonnie's twice and we will not be going back. The entire staff is different and they are all unprofessional and rude. The first time, they scheduled me for an 11:30AM drop off and told me my dog would be ready by 5:00PM. He was not ready to be picked up until 8:00PM!! The second time, I called the day before to make sure it would not be an 8 hour affair and they assured me it wouldn't be because they now had three groomers on staff. When we showed up the next morning, they told me he wouldn't be ready for pickup because they only had one groomer that day. If you knew you were only going to have one groomer on staff, you should move or cancel some of the appointments. On top of that, my dog's fur was patchy and horrible, including a piece of hair hanging down from his ear lobe about three inches long. How do you miss this??
