    Took my dog to be groomed at BiPiGis, wanted my Pomeranian to be cut down,to be cooler I didn't…read morerealized he would be shaved so short,doesn't even look like his breed! I feel like she did not listen when I told her a trim and to shorten it some, my little guy was shaved all over, thought I was getting a Lion cut! I should have been a little more clear with a what I wanted ! I am very disappointed in this service and my Buddy was there all day no water or potty break, I am on the search for another groomer

    The owner, Sandi, can be harsh and curt in person. I could feel her irritation (burn out?) with…read morecomments she made at me. She seemed friendly over the phone when I first booked. She was recommended so I pushed thru the red flags I felt. Big big mistake. My experience: After I left I heard her yelling at my puppy in an angry impatient way. The front door was open and my dog had been barking. Shame on me for leaving w/out my young dog immediately when I saw the state of her place. I thought, maybe like everybody, "she is understaffed and over busy". So I wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt. Our dog had diarrhea for a week immediately following this appt so I decided to not come back. This was the 2nd time we went. She also did not have her ready at her pick up time and had to cram to get quite a lot done. When I called at two hours after drop off, she said had not even bathed her yet. We were leaving town so she did a bath and trim in 45 minutes. I get it ... the money is good. $125 approx for 1-1.5 hours ... but if you don't like your job and you are working with sensitive creatures that can feel your irritation and anger- maybe it's time to move on. The first time after the grooming, my dog did not let me touch her feet for over 2 months after that grooming. This was an abrupt shift for her. Still my dog is uncomfortable about her feet being touched. BEFORE that 1st grooming I could massage her feet daily. I wanted her feet to be touchable and worked w her daily as a puppy so we could easily remove stickers or burrs every day. My vet said my dog probably got a razor burn on her toes when the hair was being trimmed short there. I had read that Dog groomers are supposed to change the blade as it heats from the trimmer and / or touch that blade regularly when doing the sanitary area and toes as that is a sensitive area and requires a close shave type trim. Making sure that blade is not hot against the skin is huge professional responsibility of groomers. This was a huge learning lesson for me. Trust your gut - look around - if the groomer doesn't care about keeping their place clean ... well then that's a sign. There was piles - multiple - of hair and caked on dust on the everywhere like the decorative mirrors on the walls. I understand you cannot keep a dog salon perfectly clean or dust free. This was days or weeks of build up. My overall feeling is that the owner needs to retire and is very burned out. She seems to have definitely lost her joy of working with dogs to me. I learned a huge lesson and I live in a more conscious aware state BEFORE leaving my dog anywhere now. I was totally new to the world of dog grooming when I first came here. I tipped her over 20% both times. I will gladly and generously tip a groomer for good care of my beloved furry friend. This is not the end result I wanted from these transactions. It's been very hard for me to write this review. Especially to admit my own neglect of listening to my gut and to my dog that went into a wide eyed panic when I left her the second time. That just feels plain horrible but I have learned my lesson. My dog did not deserve this.

The message usually says which days of that week they'll be working, which doesn't actually matter because if you leave a message with the requested information - your name, pet's name, phone number. They do not call back. I'm talking days, even weeks of not returning calls. I've left two messages now with no response. Then I had my husband call from work and he got a live person. Here is the conversation verbatim. Him: I'm calling to schedule one or both of my dogs for a grooming appointment. Owner: What's your last name Hon? Him: Katona, with a K Owner: For Sharky? Him: Yes Owner: Unfortunately we are booked and have no openings right now. Him: Can I call back in a few days? Owner: We are solidly booked for over a month. It says here you are only available on Saturdays. Him: No, we can bring the dogs any day of the week. Owner: Well, I'll put you on the list to call if anyone cancels, but my advice is you take him somewhere else if you need him groomed anytime soon. Him: Put me on the list ​please. Owner: Okay, I'll put you on the list but I would get him done somewhere else if you need him done soon. Bye. This seems entirely too juvenile to be true, but it seems as though we have been blacklisted. We've only ever had to miss one appointment! I guess that was enough. I'm thinking they must have been screening my phone number because regardless of when I​ call, they wouldn't answer. I left voicemails they did not return. Not even to let me know they were booked. My husband calls from a different phone number and gets right through. She was nice to him until she pulled out our card and all of a​ sudden it's "find a new groomer." Such a bad business model. At least be honest. Have a cancellation policy posted. Be up front. If you ever have to cancel, you will forfeit your right to later appointments. Whatever it is. So, in short, I​ would not recommend​​ this groomer. The cuts are fairly good but not at all worth the hassle of dealing with the staff. I'd advise that you keep looking for another groomer, which is apparently something I'll be doing now as well.

    Unbelievably great service. From our first phone call, of course on a holiday weekend, to meeting…read morethe front staff, and the talented vet techs. EVERYONE was kind, soothing and eager to help. My 11 year old Chihuahua-terrier mix dislocated her hip, she was crying in pain, we were beside ourselves, unable to help her. My husband called around who was open on a holiday weekend, and we found Atascadero Pet Hospital. They immediately invited us in to their beautiful facility and put my baby under anesthesia and put her hip back in place. We took her home in a hip sling, and she did wonderfully. We only had to give her the pain medicine that they sent us home with the first and second night. Today was our follow up and the hip sling is off and now we all have to do is pray that keeping her contained for a few more weeks with careful handling, her hip will heal and not need further surgery. I just can't express how much gratitude I have to these kind people and how wonderfully they treated us. I especially want a shout out to a young man, I think his name is Juan, young man, very handsome and just so in tuned to everything we needed to hear and how to take care of her once we got her home. He went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and assured us that we could call anytime of day or night if something happened that wasn't right or if my pet was in pain. I can't tell you how much this meant to us. Monkey is healing. We are so relieved to know that there are experts out there that will help us and be kind to our animals. Of course, the surgeon and the vets were amazing as well, so thank you to them and thank you for the time that they also spent with us explaining our options. And I just want to add, that those inaccurate reviews of this wonderful facility are likely hyperbole. Being a healthcare provider myself, for humans, I know, you can't make everybody happy. And you can't make miracles happen every time. There are many variables to consider when making a recommendation about options for health, and quality of life. It may not be an easy fix, and it may not be the best for the pet. And sometimes that's hard to hear. And, quite frankly, healthcare even if it's for a pet, is quite expensive. It's part of being a pet owner (or human). I was actually quite amazed that my dog had full-on anesthesia and her hip put back in place and a sling placed for such a reasonable amount. It was even less than they had quoted us and, they didn't ask to do a bunch of bloodwork and everything else ahead of time. They just took her to surgery and put her hip back in. Amazing! I stand behind what I said, these people are very mindful and compassionate in the work they do.
