I needed to get my sons dog Gatsby to a groomer as he is staying with for a year. My usual groomer was not taking any new large dogs. Our groomer highly recommended Mandi from Animal Elegance. I dropped off Gatsby at 915am and was met by Mandi. Mandi was very nice and super friendly. I picked Gatsby up at 1230 and Mandi said he was a good boy. Gatsby looks great and was groomed beutifully. I have an appointment again in 3 months. Mandi seems really nice and was so great with Gatsby. When I picked up Gatsby he seemed very happy. read more

Amanda does a wonderful job with both my cats and dog. I have been to many groomers, and she is the best! I have recommended her to several of my friends. You will not be disappointed. read more

That's groomer is hidden on the side of a building on Noblestown Road, you could easily miss it as you drive past but you would be missing a great experience for your pets. I've been taking my cats there to get groomed for the last year or so. I have one cat with very long hair that gets easily matted so they trim her and bathe her and put her in this adorable lion cut! Both of my cats come home very happy and they smell wonderful! I want to find out what shampoo they use because it is the best! I suggest you give them a try! read more

I debated writing this review because I had great experiences here in the past, I'll start with the girl who actually cuts my dog is great. I think her name is Amanda and she has been grooming Gunner since they were on Butler Street. I dropped him off today and got called into a meeting at my other work location (further away). I called to check in to see how long it would be before he was done and the woman on the phone (the manager) apparently didn't like the questions I was asking or was having a shitty day and flipped out and said she wouldn't charge me but I wasn't welcome back because of my "attitude" while I was trying to explain my situation that I could pick him up now or closer to their closing time. To note, when I got there thinking he wasn't cut, he in fact was done, so I paid anyway even thought they didn't ask for my money. The nasty manager couldn't even come out but gave me dirty looks from behind the door and the girl Amanda who cuts him was very nice. Overall, grooming was good but I wouldn't have come back regardless of that miserable woman "kicking me out" because I'm not going to deal with a jerk when there's plenty of other groomers closer to where I live. Bye bye Animal Elegance! read more

Just took my two poodle mixes to the new location on Noblestown Road and am so pleased! What a wonderful addition to this side of town. Amanda took the time to review options for cuts and shaping, and was really helpful with suggestions. The place is spotless, too. I'll definitely be bringing them back here! read more

I took my 12 year old terrier mix last week for the 1st time. Not only were they good with her but I honestly think it's the best cut she's ever had! And she didn't seem stressed when I picked her up. Also I asked them to please call me about 15 minutes before she would be ready and they called 1/2 hour ahead. We will certainly be back! read more

I went to Animal Elegance when it was owned by Becky She was great grooming my schnauzer, when the business was taken over by current owner they overcharged me, told me it would be 50.00 then when I called to see if she was done they said60.00 went to pick her up it was now $70.00. That's the end of my business with them read more

Animal Elegance is not much on the outside but the owner was very nice & LISTENED to how I wanted my teacup poodle groomed and used the products that I requested. I was very happy with my services and I will return. My poodles groom was $50,including tip, which I think is very reasonable. read more

after trying a couple groomers in Pittsburgh, we found Animal Elegance. They always took good care of our poodle. Clean poodle feet and an even cut. You should try them too. read more

We have two rotties we brought to Amanda for grooming. Our male has had a terrible experience getting his nails trimmed and he does not even like us touching them, but Amanda was able to cut them without any issues at all. He came home happy as every, and smells wonderful. We were definitely super happy with the results and would recommend this salon to anyone who has had some not so great experiences with their dogs in the past. Amanda is definitely super professional and I cannot wait to bring my dogs back! read more

My dog is 11 years old and horrible when it comes to grooming. He has to be restrained by 2 people at times. Other groomers wouldn't even take him after the first time. They deal with him and he comes out looking great. Thanks so much!!!! This means a lot when your animal gets so stressed out that people will actually take the time to work with you. read more

This is a gem of a dog & cat grooming salon. More like a day-spa for your pet. Excellent services & they even have a loyalty program with discounts. Fair prices, very warm handling of the pets. Top-notch place! read more

i was a vet tech for 6 years so I'm pretty particular about people caring for my pets. The groomer (becky) listened to what I wanted and did exactly what we had discussed. My dog always seems quite happy and relaxed after a grooming there. (a really good sign). Also, they are recommended by one of my favorite pet shops in Pittsburgh, Smiley's Pet Pad. I wholeheartedly trust Animal Elegance to take proper care of my little furry friends. read more

I just moved to Pittsburgh and I took the word of other reviewers when making my decision to give Animal Elegance a try. My two standard poodles looked GREAT and seemed very happy after our visit! I would have given Amy and her crew five stars but the price was a good deal more than I am used to paying. I had hoped to come back every two to three weeks but it is just too expenseive for that. I may have to find another groomer for touch ups in between visits to Animal Elegance. I feel like this is similar to a "special occasion" retaurant: One where you would go all the time if the price was just a bit lower for regular customers.... read more

I use their services regularly. They in fact are the only place I will take my dog "Gaffney". The location is right off the main street. She is always extremely well groomed when they are done. They are worth the price. read more

This is my go to place to get my Yorkiepoo groomed. The surrounding area looks a little "sad", but let's face it, lots of areas look like that here in Pittsburgh. Inside, however, the place appears newer and well kept. My dog has gotten consistently good haircuts here and she's always in a good mood when I pick her up. That's a keeper in my books! Oh, and the cost is about $45-50, which I'd say is average for most groomers I've gone to. read more

My Kingston cooper is a havanese and is a goofy handful and they handled him well. I loved his hair cut. I changed from a different groomer to here. He's only been here once about a month ago but I loved it and we will definitely be coming back. Done in a timely manner and I love the cat that walks around and so does Kingston cooper he has 2 cats himself so he felt right at home. We will be back soon. And it's not far from my house so perfect location. Thanks guys for doing a wonderful job!!! read more

This place is the best! We won't take our dog anywhere else for grooming. It's a very mom & pop type of place. They genuinely cared for our puppy, not to mention the perfect job they did on the cut and washing. Everyone who works here seems to treat the animals with the upmost care. Such a convenient location on Butler Street near Lawrencevillle. Can't wait to go back!! Thank you so much!!! read more

I have a Golden Retriever who I have clipped down in the summer time- Animal Elegance is the best! He loves going there, and still manages to look like a golden even after his cut. I also have a fiesty German Sheppard that I take to be groomed. The owner is the only person he allows to cut his nails! The staff are professional and friendly, and I am always happy when we walk out the door... read more

Great staff, great service and relatively great location. They work wonders with my large, hyper, crazy Springer!!!

I had a very unfortunate experience with this groomer. My dog was not groomed to my specifications; infact she was butchered. I went to the trouble of taking a photo of my dog with the haircut that I wanted, as well as speaking with the woman who assured me she would be grooming my dog. The owner groomed my dog, not the woman that I spoke with and she looked nothing like my dog when I picked her up. The owner was rude and did not even apologize for the horrible service. Do not take your dog there to be groomed! read more

They made my Portuguese Water Dog look horrible. They actually sheared all the fur from my dog claiming that it was matted and therefore they had no choice. This isn't true as I personally brush my dog every morning. When I complained, the owner said: "But we did tell you that we will cut the dog's fur short." Yes, they did, and I thought that considering that the days are hot in August, they are proposing a little cooler grooming. I never expected them to just shear the dog to the skin. I think they did it because they are hopelessly irresponsible. Although they charged $70 for this brutally simple operation they have not even trimmed dog's ears and tail. Consequently, the dog has disproportionally long hair on its tail and the ears. I used Animal Elegance for more than a decade. Long before current management took over. Over all these years I sometimes took in stride their accessional compromise of standards and always paid their exorbitant prices without complaint. However, this fragrant negligence, combined with their total disregard of the fact that I was an old and loyal customer did it. I will avoid this place from now on and would like to suggest that you do the same. read more
