    I have been taking my three dogs here for a few years and the owner is amazing she does a great job with my dogs and treats them like her own. There cuts always look beautiful and I feel comfortable leaving them as I know they are in good hands.

    As soon as you walk in you can feel the warmth and good vibes. Very professional and knowledgeable- we love both Rocco and Renzo's cut. Thank you for taking great care of our babies. Highly recommended!!!

    My leonard looked so fabulous after going to this groomer. He was also so calm and comfortable. I will be returning!

    Just moved to Jersey & I cannot be happier that I found this place! I love the fact that they don't crate the pups unless they don't get along with the other animals. I hate knowing when I leave my little baby, he spends a hour or so waiting in a cage. Thor has really bad tears that make his face hair extremely hard and takes forever to clean. They did an excellent job cleaning him up and making him handsome. I showed the owner a reference picture and she nailed it. Btw the customer service is spectacular. Will definitely be going here for the remaining time I have in Jersey.

    I just took my furbaby here for the first time yesterday and can't get over how handsome he looks with his fancy new haircut! Very nice, clean little place, with very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable staff! I'd definitely recommend this groomer to other pet owners in the area and will definitely bring my little nugget back when he gets good and stinky again (which could be in just a matter of days with him)!

    Being new to the area I wasn't sure of any groomers in the area for our two pups. Bark Avenue Grooming was recommended to us by someone at the dog park. I called early in the week and was happy that they were able to take our dogs that weekend for much needed haircuts. The woman who answered the phone, whom I believe was the owner answered all my questions and explained what they offer. We chatted a bit about dogs and I knew right away that my dogs would be in good hands and that they genuinely care about the animals. When I arrived for their appointment I met the groomer who would be doing the pups haircuts. She made sure the pups were comfortable with her and asked me a few questions to make sure it was a happy and stressless experience for them. A few hours later I was called to pick them up and I have to say that it was the fastest turnaround time I've ever had with a groomer. They both looked great and were very relaxed and happy. We will definitely be going back.

    I have a bichon frise who needs regular grooming every 8 weeks. I brought him to Bark Avenue for grooming. I was initially not satisfied with my dogs groom however the owner was more than willing to make sure I was satisfied. I am very pleased with their care and concern to ensure I am a satisfied customer. My doggie looks great now. I would definitely recommend because of their professionalism and care for their customers.

    After ear cleaning?!

    DO NOT GO HERE! DANGER! DANGER! My frirend reffered me to this groomer and when he saw what they…read moredid to my dog he was in shock! I wanted a wash and a comb at most a puppy cut. 4 hours later I was told to come get my dog at 6pm. I go to pick her up and completely didn't even recognize my dog for they had shaven her down to the skin! They also didn't even wash her! they told me they do the cut first and then they bath her. I got there as they were doing the last buzz on her! I was absoluly mortified. I had to get my dog out of here! They also CUT HER SKIN! Additionally my dog was shaking for hours after I picked her up. I have no idea what they did to my dog while there. After the mutilation of my dog they had the audacity to charge me 120 dollars. I refused and they threatened to call the cops on me! If you love you pets DO NOT GO HERE! HORRID!!!!!!

    Was looking forward to having a new groomer in town, but I would never go back here. We brought…read moretwo dogs and wanted them both cut short with 'puppy cuts'. Their cuts came out very uneven and choppy and not as short as we wanted. We even showed pictures of how we like the dogs to be cut, but those pictures were not followed. One ear is longer than the other on one dog and the poor thing looks crooked. When picked up, the collars were on the wrong dogs and one dog had the handle of the leash around her neck instead of the correct part of the leash. My dog could have easily slipped out of it onto the busy main street if we didn't see it was put on wrong. Both cuts were $90 and this bad experience cost us $200. Not worth the money AT ALL.

    Terrible new owners. They may be friendly, but the grooming is not good and both my dogs hated…read moregoing there. I kept trying bec the previous owners, Alex Mazur and his wife were great and they are good friends. Both dogs needed a grooming and the local groomers were booked up. A day later after grooming at Grateful Dogs, both dogs (one going on 15 and blind, and the second, almost 7 yr old) had severe vomiting, diarrhea and stopped eating. After a few days, they both needed a Vet visit with anti nausea shots; neither had any ailments or kidney issues as far as a special diet or meds- the older dog had somewhat raised liver enzymes due to age. The bill was $445 as the elder needed bloodwork to check in case. They were both still vomiting and had diarrhea (no eating) for the next few days. The younger recovered; the elder never recovered, stopped eating and drinking and went into kidney failure, had to be hospitalized and eventually had to be put down two weeks later. The Vet at the EM hospital and her primary Vet both surmised that the reason for their illnesses was perhaps due to dehydration. My bills totaled around 7k. I called Ogie the owner at Grateful Dogs to let him know what happened after I had to put my older dog down. I am so devastated. I asked Ogie what could've happened. He claims nothing - they were there alone. I first thought maybe they both caught something; he says they were the only dogs there so that's not a possibility. When I suggested that both Vets thought perhaps the illnesses were from dehydration, and that just pushed the elder over the edge, he shrugged me off. Crying, I asked if he could at least refund me my last grooming bill as they had gone 2 weeks prior. Both breeds are non allergenic, so I shaved their pads, do their ears, cut their nails and shave their private parts to just make it less stressful for them. Due to that, the previous owners always gave me a small discount off of one pet. After this phone call, Ogie said that he was denying giving me back my grooming refund, because he gives me a discount. He claimed that he's hardly making any money off of me. I told him that I had so many Vet bills, could he at least help by giving me a refund. He said that he'll call my Vet to see if he could help me. It turns out that he never called my Vet and I haven't heard from him since. Do not go there. They seem friendly, but they're not compassionate at all. Plus, I told Ogie that even though my younger dogs pads, ears, private parts were done, they didn't really groom him - his hair was still so long. I'm heartbroken!

    My pup loves going Alex and always comes out so fresh and clean and smells amazing for days!…read more Grateful dogs is super accommodating with scheduling and have very fair pricing. They have done both short and long cuts on my little pom boy. Def would recommend.

    Horrifying Experience!!!…read more I've taken my big fluffy mess Sandor a male Pomsky to BIG MOOSE a few times before and never had any issues besides for ur normal complaints in the other comments. (dogs barking uncontrollably locked in small cages!) I called Joy (owner) to schedule a grooming for Sandor right before Memorial Day weekend 2023. When I dropped him off and she asked "so what are we doing today?" I said, "same as usual needs his normal wash, nails trimmed, and a nice haircut." Joy replied "we could shave him." I told her "ABSOLUTELY NOT, DONT SHAVE MY DOG, I've read and been told by my vet not to shave a double coated dog unless it's for medical reasons!" "Ok, we'll give him a nice cut" says Joy As normal I leave Sandor n go back a few hours later when I get the call to pick my little guy up. So I walk into BIG MOOSE GROOMING and I was in shock!!! Literally for the first time I was at a loss for words. SHE SHAVED MY DOG!!! The one thing I told them NOT TO DO they decided to do! I couldn't even think right to argue I already had money in hand left it on the counter grabbed Sandor n stormed out! After the long weekend enjoying time with family n friends I was still bothered n extremely disappointed they couldn't follow simple instructions! I called Joy that Tuesday and vented my concerns n feelings about what they did without my consent. Her response was defensive n told me she does this all the time n wouldn't be in business if the hair didn't grow back! (I guess my old groomer knows more about dogs than my Vet!). Didn't offer any refund either! (Like she did for Paul in one of the previous comment) A few reasons why I'm writing this a year after the fact -Wanted to see if n how his hair would grow (it did but not the same) WISH I could leave ZERO Stars but unfortunately yelp doesn't allow it!!!

NJPS stepped in and helped us in a pinch, and we're forever grateful. From the start, they were reassuring, responsive, and incredibly kind -- they really helped calm our nerves. Their app made everything even easier; we loved getting photo updates and detailed notes from each visit. Selena is a senior dog with quirky eating and walking habits and requires medication, and they handled everything perfectly. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Selena was so well cared for, and we came home to a happy and healthy pup. They even followed up after we got home, which showed us that this was so much more than a business transaction to them -- they genuinely care. Highly recommend their team to anyone looking for reliable, thoughtful pet sitting.

I love how easy it is to schedule their walks and that I get handwritten notes every day about what they did and pictures of them as well. I've never felt more comfortable having someone else take care of my pups. I would suggest using NJ Petsitters for your pets needs.
