I can't say enough good things about Seon Gyoung and her Moving Dog Spa…read more I would recommend Moving Dog Spa to anyone who considers their dogs overall well-being while getting groomed because Seon Gyoung is incredible! I have an anxious rescue pup who tends to be incredibly shy and anxious with new folks, not to mention people who need to touch him! I've had my dog groomed three times now with Seon Gyoung of Moving Dog Spa and I can say, without hesitation, that she provides incredible care, kindness, skill and love during the entire grooming process. My pup always comes out looking so good and more than that, is calm and happy. I would recommend Moving Dog Spa to anyone who wants their dogs in the care of skilled, kind, compassionate people.

I paid her $178.50 to groom my Maltese. I told her I was growing her hair long when booking the…read moreappointment and twice before she took the dog into the van, only to have her cut all her fur off to less than an inch all over her body. My dog is a year and a half, and her hair had never been cut ever since she was born, and now it will take years for it to grow back after this. Not only did she cut the fur off, the cut itself was so extremely poor, I've had people ask me if I cut it myself. I posted the post-groom pictures on my Maltese group online, and the consensus was this person is not a "master groomer". Every single leg is cut different, her face is different on either side, there are scissor cuts left in the fur all over her body. She did have a top knot before the groom, and I told the groomer that I like to put it in a ponytail every single day, and she cut it so uneven and short that she herself had to put it into two ponytails because it's almost impossible to have it put into one ponytail with how it's cut. And to be clear, I handed over a dog that had ZERO knots or mats in her fur. I combed through her fur with a metal comb less than an hour before the groomer arrived. Completely devastating when I was so specific. Within minutes of meeting the groomer by her van, she told me that my dog was not a purebred (I have papers), that she had a blocked tear duct, and that her hair would never grow long. I brought her to the vet the next day because of course I was worried if she maybe she did have a blocked tear duct. A $90 veterinarian examination fee and five minutes later to be told her eyes are perfectly fine. And then there another $90 for another groom to have this absolutely terrible cut fixed. What a nightmare. If you're looking for a specific cut, while this person identifies as a "master groomer", the cut she gave she might as well be working at Petsmart, which is where most people thought I brought my dog to have her hair done. So in total, I have paid $358 to have my 5 pound dog trimmed. I also wonder if she is even an actual working groomer now. She showed up in a van that was completely smashed up on the side, and when I looked in her van, it looked more like storage than a place where a dog could be groomed. Never again. So ripped off. The first two pictures are right after the groom in the van, and the last picture is the beautiful dog I handed over to her.

I was originally a little irritated with this place. Because I had called and called and called and…read morecalled at 10 am to let them know I was on the way just stuck in traffic and wanted to know if I got there would she still be able to have her teeth cleaned. No one answered. The directory was super long and hearing out the options was so time consuming. And the option to speak to the store always rang once then long silence and then ends call automatically. I did manage to get there. And it was 10:30 am. Her appointment was 10-11 am. They agreed to clean her molars which were the ones with tons of sudden build up. But when my dog came out at 11 am the lady Cindy told me she was able to fully clean my dog's teeth because she was such a saint and put up no fuss. yes. She's an absolute princess when it's with strangers. She's stubborn as hell with mommy though. Anyways. For $250 it ain't bad. She went in with build up on her molars that looked like caramel coated popcorn. And came out with white teeth that looked like white strips was used her teeth were clean and white. My dog is 3.5 years old and this was her first dental visit. And she's a bit on the shy side with new people and they handled her so well she wasn't stressed at all when she came out in Cindy's arm. I highly recommend this place for your dog's dental needs. They also offer the full array of grooming services. and I would like to point out for all the reviews on Google that complained the shop did not do as asked for grooming style and technique.... They do what's best for YOUR DOG... AS BEST THAT THEY CAN FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS OF THE OWNER. This shop puts your dog first. So perhaps be appreciative that they don't rip mats from your dog's coat just because you want it done without shaving. Or that you don't like the length of the coat. Even when you go to a hairdresser your hair cut can be a flop. People are human. Dogs are even more unpredictable. They can move or refuse to cooperate. They do their very best based on your dog's behaviour and its needs and your wishes. I witnessed about 7 customers in the time I waited for my dog's teeth cleaning. They clearly go over expectations and their own boundaries that puts pet's comfort and consideration first and foremost.

Not one of those fast turnover outfits where there are cages for dogs and meet up pet areas (which Olive no longer enjoys). It was one on one attention. Olive happily entered and left equally happily, with a spring in her step. Kinu is a sweetheart. She has two elderly chihuahua-type dogs herself. Loved seeing the photos of them on the wall. She listened to our requests and took care studying the photo I showed of our ideal outcome. Hypoallergenic shampoo came as no surprise or issue. One hour and a half later we regained a puppy! We thoroughly recommend this dog spa. We'll all be happy to return when in town. A great relief because as our girl ages she becomes less keen on the whole beautifying procedure! I feel that Kinu will always be kind, gentle and take good care of her.

I had TWO disastrous experiences with Darma Dog. The first time they groomed my dog, he had FIVE…read morenicks in his skin FIVE!!! He was extremely upset when I picked him up. Due to serious illness, I was slow to reach out and complain. They offered me a second grooming at 50% off. It was a TERRIBLE DISASTER!! They shaved my dog completely including his tail ( a POODLE!) He looked like a rat with all his hair shaved off his body and especially his entire tail!! That was brutal! His face was very carelessly trimmed. My niece, who is a nurse, used her scissors to clean up his very messy face. Both times I had him groomed there, he came out upset and traumatized. Far more serious was the fact that he could NOT walk properly for nearly a week and he absolutely could not run. ( he is a two year old poodle who runs like the wind every day) . Had I not been so ill myself, I would have dealt with this at the time. My poor dog could not WALK!! He'd take a could of steps then sit. He kept turning his head towards his bum. Goodness knows WHAT they did to him! He was clearly in some pain and it was awful to see him trying to walk. So, the other two places I had him groomed were fine. Darma Dog is a place I would NEVER set foot in again. Recently, I talked with a woman at Trout Lake. Her dog had been groomed at Darma Dog. He also could hardly walk afterwards but she determined that his nails had been cut way too short causing pain when he walked. I loved the name Darma Dog. They were warm and friendly but my dog got really HARMED TWICE!

I am pretty loyal to a dog grooming salon a few blocks from my home but they were totally booked up…read morefor the whole month, and NO WAY can my dog wait until November! She looks like a feral hyena and needs serious grooming IMMEDIATELY! My good friend swears by Woof and their groomers there, and he's taken his dog there for many years. So I called and booked an appointment (they were able to see me in a few days' time), and I was pleased with the whole booking experience (even got a reminder text the day prior). My appointment was for 9am and, unbeknownst the me, the place opens at 9am, and I was early (I always give myself extra time when going to a new place. This dog salon was easy to find, on 1st, right by Cypress, and there was a lot of available parking on the street at this time. Meters don't require payment until 9am, too, so that worked out nicely!). I walked my dog around the area (lots of grassy areas on the side streets. Unfortunately, no trash cans for disposing of the doggie bags, though). I got to Woof's front door at 8:50am and, despite it being closed, someone inside saw me and opened the door to let us in. That was really nice! I met Yuki and Verana (?sp) and they were super friendly, and I briefly went over my dog's history (she is elderly and has Addison's and other..issues). I gave them a few photos of past haircuts my dog had that I liked. I was told my dog would be ready in 1.5-2 hours, and they would text or call me to let me know when she was ready. I received the text 90 minutes later, and when I arrived, I have to say, my dog never looked better! Seriously, what a phenomenal haircut! (I'm posting a few pics so you can see!). It wasn't cheap (in my experience, no dog groomer here in Van IS), and in fact, cost about $5 more than my regular groomer. But Woof's turn-around time is shorter than my usual groomers' (and this is important, for a stressed-out senior dog), and they really have the personal touch here. Even though my regular groomer is a few blocks from me and I walk there with my dog, I just might have to switch loyalties here, I liked Woof so much.

Most pet stores in Vancouver, Canada have almost the same brands, toys, treats and food but Barking Babies is very selective and caring that things serve the family well, with a wide gorgeous, selection of some of the best goodies and gear ever for the modern dog. I first came hoping to find a less heavy carrier for my new puppy. Ended up with a nice front/back carrier from Japanese brand Mon Cheri which I love that the store owner helped me choose with expertise and knowledge to recommend what would be a great match for my needs. Not too bulky or heavy. Barking Babies carries a lot of fantastic luxury dog/pet carriers, there are some available to order in store too and they have all kinds of fashionable clothes, shoes, toys, beds, gourmet food and treats for dogs too! When I first came in I was still starting to socialize Soda and now Soda loves the store and gets along great with the 2-3 dogs who help run the store and it has been nice for Soda to visit with them. We have also gotten two beautiful soft rolled faux leather convertible hands free leashes, some Wag Wear rain boots for my dogs, Nono and Soda, a few toys, treats, Woof Dog Food and even a Lafufu plush toy for Soda, and my dogs are obsessed with everything we get from the store from the cute xmas gift snuffle box to her beloved Lafufu and even the Wag Wear shoes. Love going in to find unique and gorgeously vetted wonderful things for my dogs to enjoy and also let them practice socializing. We try to get to the store every chance we can or need if we are in the area and cannot recommend a visit to the best dog store for extra special barking fur babies in Vancouver!
