Not only does my dog always look and smell fantastic after he comes here, but he is not stressed going in or coming out of the establishment. As a professional trainer who is very picky about who handles my dogs, this is a big one for me. Kathy and her staff are so kind and gentle, I wouldn't trust anyone else with my dog! Book an appointment, you won't be disappointed! Thank you, Waggin Tails! read more

I took my Pomeranian here and he had a great time. I asked for a puppy cut and he came out looking gorgeous. I only left him there for 2.5 hours so it was a quick process. I've had other places make me leave him all day. I'm glad the process was quick and my dog was happy too. Everyone was super nice and I could tell they were all great dog people so I trusted them with my dog. read more

Not overly perfume-y like the other places! She just smells clean and always so soft! Thanks for always making penny look the best of the best. read more

We brought our mini goldendoodle in for a summer cut last week having just moved to the area and we loved how Sandra and Kathie took care of her! They were so nice and did a fantastic job with our dog, she even wanted to hang out with them longer after her cut. Usually we pick her up from the groomer and she can't wait to get the heck out, but not this time. Even my parents noticed how good she looked. Thank you Kathie and Sandra, we will be back! :) read more

Just returned from our groomer. Kathie does such a great job on my fur kids! Gotta show you. Kathie and her staff really love dogs and I never worry, no cuts or weird behavior when they are picked up. 6 years of making my doggies beautiful, clean and great smelling. Thank you Kathie and your fantastic staff at WAGGIN TAILS LOUNGE. read more

There are not enough stars in the Universe for the folks at Waggin Tails! They are absolutely the most caring and wonderful group of people. I took my 14 year old female GSD there and they made special arrangements to get her in and out quickly so less stress on her and despite the fact that she pooped all over the place, they are still willing to have her back again. She came home soft, beautiful and smelling great! These people love and respect dogs. You cannot go wrong here. I cannot say enough great things about them and their services. read more

They do a great job with both wash and cuts. I have a very anxious dog who use to try to run when I would take him for grooming prior to coming here! Very sweet and caring staff. read more

Nice people. Only place I take my dogs for baths and nail clipping. The crew there understands my dogs and work with me to accommodate my older girls special needs. read more

We have been taking our energetic doodle to Waggin Tails for over two years and they always do a great job. The owner is very professional and has given us valuable advice about some of the ailments my dog suffers from (ear irritations, skin growths) . The ladies are really gentle with our dog since he hates being groomed. Our dog always comes back looking trimmed and clean. The parking is easy and the rates are reasonable. There are many groomers in our area to choose from but we prefer Waggin Tails because it's always a positive experience. read more

My review is waaaaay overdo! Kathie, Lupe and Sandra are amazing! If you want to take your dogs to a groomer that will treat them like they are their own, you have found the place! My two dogs get the absolute best haircuts, and we've also used them for boarding when we've been out of town. Cannot say enough wonderful things about Waggin Tails. "The boys" and I love you girls! read more

I have been taking my dog to Waggin Tails for 4 years and I cannot say enough good things about the experience. Lucy loves to go and visit Kathie and Sandra and Lupe. It is like a second home to her. She gets great haircuts and baths. They take care of all her grooming needs. Before COVID Lucy would also go for day care and had a nice opportunity to interact with other dogs. I am truly grateful to have such loving and caring people take care of my dog. Try Waggin Tails, I am sure you will feel the same way. read more

Amazing service! And amazing staff. Could not be happier with everything they do from dog sitting to grooming and more! I feel I leave my puppy with family and I'm never worried. They take great care of care. read more

What a lovely place. The owner is as sweet as the day is long and she really seems to care about the pups. She did a great groom on our poodle , exactly the way we asked her to. You know how some hairdressers cut your hair the way they want it instead of you want it? Well, so do dog groomers. This gal (Kathie) does what you want! I highly recommend Waggin Tails Lounge. I also.like to support Mom and Pop shops. Small businesses rock! read more

My wife is extremely detailed and particular on what she wants our little Yorkie to look like. We asked for her to be combed out and trimmed and she came back completely shaved. We were told she was matted and that could not be the case as my wife stayed up for an hour the night before combing her out and playing with her paws and (we too like another unhappy reviewer) were told that she had been acting up when she was being groomed and they needed two people to groom her ( she is all of six pounds). When I went in I was told, no screamed at by the owner that this is what my wife wanted and I know that was not the case. I do not care that things go wrong but to be yelled at by a place that is suppose to be giving you service is ridiculous. I then had my wife follow up as I was pissed at them more for treating me badly then making a mistake with our puppy. When my wife tried to discuss the matter she was met with the same belligerent and hostile attitude. If this is how they treat people i can only imagine what they do with the dogs when no one is there. There are lots of choices for dog grooming and this should not be one of them. PASS! read more

This was my second time taking my dog here after being referred by my sister that had used it once before. It's a bit hidden with no sign on the wall and shares the space with a locksmith. They have a very pet friendly environment with the doggy day care going on. BTW they had the biggest golden doodle I've ever seen greeting people up at the front. He was just a big friendly teddy bear. I had called a week ago, early afternoon to see if it was possible to come in as a walk in. I have an extremely busy schedule and wanted to take advantage of this dead time I had. Before the nice young lady that picked up the phone could place me on hold to find out, I heard someone in an irratated tone yelling in the back to not take anymore dogs. I thought to myself, rude, but hey she's probably swamped and having a bad day. I completely understand. So I scheduled an appointment on my next day off. Now to the grooming experience I had. My dog is a shy chihuauha/pomeranian mix. He's great with people and kids, but iffy around multiple dogs. I asked for the legs to be trimmed, the stomach area and the butt. I went to pick him up an 1hr 1/2 after dropping him off. Loved that it was super quick. He looked handsome in his bandana they put on him, but I noticed that the front legs weren't trimmed. I brought it to the young ladies attention and she fixed it right away. When I got home I noticed the back side is uneven. One side is wayyy shorter than the other. I completely understand if my dog squirmed and maybe too much was cut off but I would've preferred the problem being taken care of before I noticed. I was going to fix it myself, but my mom was real persistant on taking him back to the groomer so I did. I called and she was really nice, told me she was by herself and so it was hard to trim him there but in 10min someone else would be there to help hold him while she cut. I even told her that I understood bc my dog is shy about his backside and sits down. I get there, I'm even a little embarrassed bc I'm not a complainer and I didn't want them to take it personal. The first thing the owner tells me in what sounded like a defensive tone, is that my dog was being difficult and that he's a biter. I appologized for it. She suggested putting a muzzle on him in order to avoid any incidents while at the groomer. I'm all for them protecting themselves, but was thrown off by my dog being a biter. He's never bit or attacked anyone before. I've never even heard him growl aggressively or show teeth towards someone. Plus I thought the young lady was by herself. It even crossed my mind that maybe the young lady screwed up and covered her ass by saying that my dog was a biter. So they cleaned him up and told me it's not perfect, if I wasn't happy to let her know, but by that point it was just awkward. I just thanked them and left. I felt like she got really defensive. All in all, I don't think I'll be using this groomer anymore. Loved that they had dogs everywhere, but maybe its not the right place for my doggy and I. read more

Wagging tails is hands down the best groomers in Tarzana and in fact the valley!

I have been taking my dogs to Waggin' Tails for about 6 years. They always come home looking and smelling beautiful! Most importantly, Kathie and her staff LOVE dogs and they treat them so wonderfully. We recently had to put one of our dogs to sleep and Kathie was so helpful and also sad at the loss of our Cooper. She seems to love all of the dogs that come to her. I have never had to worry about my dogs when they are in Kathie's care. They are always happy to come and see her...not always the case with my dog Simon who had his tail between his legs after his second visit to another groomer. I never took him back there and he has never acted that way when I take him to Waggin' Tails. I will never take my dog to anyone else! read more

Waggin Tails Lounge - Easy to miss in the corner. Kind of hidden - Pet Sitting Near Me - Tarzana, California

I have been bringing my two dogs to Waggin Tails for more than five years. Although I've tried a couple other places over the same period of time, I always come back to Kathy (only groomer at Waggin Tails) because she is the best. She really loves dogs, gives great hair cuts, and my dogs love her. The ONLY reason I've tried other places nearby is because usually you cannot get a same day appt, or even a next day appt, which is difficult for a working mom. With a little planning, my dogs only go to Waggin Tails. If it were not for the scheduling issue, this place would get five stars. (My dogs use to go to doggie day care there before I had my kids, and the doggie day care was great and affordable.) This is not a luxurious "posh" puppy kind of place. If that's what you are looking for, you are at the wrong place. However, it is kept very clean, organized, and safe for doggies. Most importantly, its run by Kathy, a real dog lover who knows how to groom dogs right everytime. My Shih Tzu is easy to groom. She's a loving easy-going dog. Her short "puppy" cut always looks great. My Lhasa Apso is another story entirely. He is a biter, hates his face touched, and is a strong 30 lb. boy who knows how to throw his weight around. Kathy handles him with ease, has developed a relationship with him, and can trim his face perfectly at each grooming. Kathy truly knows how to communicate with the dogs and gets them to trust her. If it weren't for Kathy, my lhasa would be a mess of dog. We are lucky to have her. Waggin Tails (Kathy) will be our groomer for a long long time. read more

Today I took my Maltipoo Bear to Waggin Tails for the first time. She had been traumatized by her last grooming experience at a different groomer and was really shaking. The ladies at Waggin Tails were amazing. They took such good care of my puppy. When I returned to pick her up she looked beautiful and was so happy. They spent so much time with her! I will never go to another groomer. I cannot say enough good things about this special spot. If you care about your pet take them to Waggin Tails. read more

I've been coming here for more than 10 years, Kathie use to do s great job, but lately not only she has a nasty attitude & complains why her business is heading to the wrong direction, but the hair cuts are not only bad but my poor dogs have Nicks & Cuts al over to a point I had to take one of them to the vet. TOO BAD THIS USE TI BE A GOOD PLACE, will never ever come back here again. I tried taking Kathie but all she does is makes poor excuses why dogs have these cuts. read more

I love bringing my dogs here to be groomed. They always get a wonderful haircut and I know that Kathie and the other wonderful women that work there really care about animals, which makes me feel safe leaving my fur-babies with them.

I agree that I would love to be able to get appointments a bit sooner, so I don't have to plan as far ahead, but I know that they are so busy because they are super good! :) read more
