    I've used multiple boarding facilities over the years, and this is the first time I've ever been…read morecharged for more days than my dog was actually boarded. I dropped him off Friday at 8 AM and picked him up Sunday at 8 AM -- exactly 48 hours. Somehow, that became three days on my bill.The owner explained they charge by "calendar day," meaning even a 24‑hour stay counts as two days. In my case, a 48‑hour stay magically transformed into three. Impressive, if you're grading creativity. Not so impressive if you're the one paying.Nothing else about the experience was terrible, but the pricing structure is misleading at best and predatory at worst. I won't be returning, and I recommend anyone considering this place ask very specific questions about how they calculate time -- preferably with a calculator in hand.

    We've been working with Dan and Jeanine at Blue Sky Farms since 2005 when they helped us purchase…read moreour first German Shepard. This is when they just had their house and a bunch of land. Since then, they helped us train her and train our 2nd Shepard in Schutzhund training by Dwayne. Dwayne can train any type of dog to track or protect, pretty amazing! Annnd, they've vastly expanded their dog kennel and horse area. The dog kennel is huge! Spots for the dog inside and outside. They have a huge social area, so when you drop your dog off (assuming they are not aggressive) they can have a fun time with other 4 leggers! We've left both our dogs with them and have had great experiences every time. As far as their grooming goes = top notch! Today we dropped Chief off in the morning to get his Easter/Summer Beach bod showing! Pants shortened, nails clipped and pruned and ready for the Easter ladies! He looks great. There is no other place in Hampton Roads we trust more then Blue Sky Farms!

    I had an excellent experience with Diggin Your Style Mobile Grooming. They traveled from Virginia…read moreBeach to my home in Chesapeake and groomed my 14-year-old Morkie right at the curb using their mobile grooming trailer, which made everything incredibly convenient. My senior dog was treated with patience and kindness throughout the appointment. Owners of small or older dogs will really appreciate the calm, one-on-one attention that mobile grooming provides. The grooming was perfect -- clean, neatly trimmed, and styled exactly as I hoped. I'm so pleased with the service that I'll definitely be using them again, and they have a great referral program for friends and family. If you're looking for professional mobile dog grooming in the Virginia Beach or Chesapeake area, I highly recommend Diggin Your Style Mobile Grooming. The convenience, care, and quality make them a top choice for pet owners.

    I have been bringing my Bichapoo to this location on and off for eight years. It seems there may be…read morenew staff members who are not as experienced. My husband brought our dog in today for grooming, and although it has been about six months since her last appointment, which is normal for us and she did look a mess. The staff called my husband stating they would need to shave her completely because she was "severely matted." This is not accurate. I personally combed her out about two weeks ago when I was considering grooming her myself. It appears they may not have brushed her before bathing and blow-drying, which can actually create mats if not done properly. They then showed my husband a video that did not demonstrate a need to shave her bald and told him that refusing the shave could result in injury, an emergency vet visit, or even animal control involvement if she "bit" someone. In the eight years we've used this groomer, we have never once been told that she bit anyone. My dog may fuss or growl when uncomfortable, but she has never bitten a person or another animal. It felt as though they were trying to pressure my husband into approving a full shave rather than taking the time to groom her correctly. This used to be a great place, and I'm extremely disappointed in how the situation was handled and how responsibility was shifted instead of acknowledging their own mistakes. I guarantee you when I get home I will be able to comb my dog out and properly shave her. It just takes time. We already pay $75 dollars even an extra charge to the $75 for extra time is understandable but to try and just shave the poor dog bald and then threaten us with the ER and animal control is just wild. The owner responded to this review elsewhere and it's extremely disappointing. There is a complete lack of accountability with this business and the owner straight up lies. My husband is not a liar and would never claim they threatened to call animal services if that were not true. Just because they did not want to take the extra time to properly groom my dog does not mean I expect them to treat an animal inhumanely. Suggesting otherwise is unreasonable. As paying customers, we have every right to bring up concerns when services we paid for are not completed properly. If nail trimming, sanitary trimming, and ear plucking are included in the service--and they were not done--then yes, I am absolutely allowed to say something. Each time we brought up minor issues in the past, we did so respectfully, they corrected them, and we moved on. We have never been rude. To now portray us as the problem for pointing out services that were missed or them just being LAZY is unacceptable. You are the business, the professional, and the expert. Grooming a dog properly and without causing harm should be the standard. We had no intention of returning regardless, but the unprofessional, defensive, and hostile response from the owner only further confirms that!! Do not go here because if they mess up they will not take accountability and they will lie!
