Absolute class haircut for my giant schnauzer, Barbie. Couldn't be happier with the service, availability, and the price. Work was completed in a timely manner, and Barbie received exactly the cut I had requested. Certainly one of the best groomers I've found in this area, and one I'll be visiting again. I would highly suggest taking your pets here. read more

Best Paw Forward Pet Grooming - Giant Schnauzer breed standard cut - Pet Groomers Near Me - Elverta, California

I live in Reno Nevada and my boyfriend and I just bought a house and are in the process of moving in. During this time, we are having my boyfriends parents watch our dogs which include a poodle bichon, and a border collie. Our poodle really needed a haircut and we tried a couple local groomers to Roseville and had bad feelings about all of them. We reached out to best paw forward and the experience was absolutely magical. I am sad that this can't be our regular groomers because of how great of an experience we had. Best paw forward we're able to squeeze us in for a same week appointment. To start, we typically groom our poodle, Ollie, every 3 months or so and have had problems in the past at other groomers going too short on his belly / groin area which has led to him scratching until he bleeds. We voiced our concerns with best paw, along with detailing how we wanted him to look. We are in Reno, so all of this was by phone and through my boyfriends mom. We were nervous but we ended up getting John as our groomer for Ollie and he did a PHENOMENAL job. He called us when Ollie got there to make sure we understood everything and that he knew what we wanted. he kept his belly hair a little longer and Ollie had absolutely no itchiness which was such a relief on us. John soaked Ollie in a preconditioner to make him easier to brush and reduce pulling on his skin, making him more comfortable. He did such a good job on Ollie, the haircut is SO CUTE! About a week later we had an appointment for our border collie, Tahoe, to get brushed out and nails trimmed. Tahoe is pretty fearful of people and barks a lot so we don't take her to groomers very often but knew she could use it. We got Lisa and she did such a great job with Tahoe. We didn't hear anything bad about Tahoes barking, and she came out looking great! Thank you best paw forward for making our experience so wonderful. You took such a stress off of us and we are very grateful for your work. We might even have to come down from Reno to do our grooming with you again. read more

Took my Yorky in here today for the first time. He hadn't been groomed in ages and they did a pretty good job although they were unable to grind his nails because he nips, Which I was disappointed by. I had authorized them to put a muzzle on him if necessary. I had also asked for a Yorky head which we discussed means leaving his head long and his body short, But for some reason they cut all the hair on his head off. He doesn't look like a Yorky anymore but hair grows back so I'm not that stressed about that but I am disappointed that they didn't follow my instructions. I'm not sure that I will return here. read more

We have been taking our Bernese Mountain Dogs to Stevia for over 3 years. I had made an appointment for one of the girls for a Friday. I was contacted shortly before the appointment on that Friday to see if I could reschedule her for the following day because our groomer had already worked on a couple big dogs and her back hurt. I could not reschedule because of company coming in from out of town, so I was told to bring her on in. Our dog did need extra grooming because of mats in her coat. When we picked her up my husband was told $195.00! (+Tip) That's $105.00 MORE than we usually pay. My dog looked beautiful, however a courtesy call for the additional charge would have been nice. I would have agreed to the additional cost anyway however a phone call to notify me of the additional$105.00 would have been appreciated. read more

Friendly staff and excellent grooming! My dog has anxiety and they're always so patient and gentle with him. read more

I bring all of my many 4 legged animals here. Two cats and 5 dogs. They do amazing. Especially on my Pomeranian. They always listen and take the extra time to cut her right. She always comes back looking beautiful. I see these negative reviews and I don't understand them. All the grommets here are amazing. If you just want your dog bathed the bather takes special care with washing and brush out/ de shedding. Got a skunk dog come on by and they will fix you up right as rain. I can vouch for that.You won't regret coming here I promise you. read more

I took my long-haired pup in for his first professional grooming. Some of his hair had gotten matted so I asked for a shave (vowing to regularly brush his hair when it grows back). I know my pup must have put up at least a little bit of a fight since I know he wasn't completely comfortable with the clippers from when I first clipped him. Rheaghan did a great job with him despite that and he came out looking and smelling great. I'm very pleased and plan on coming back on a regular basis with my pup and will likely bring his "sister" too. read more

I thought I liked this place until I met the male owner? My poodle was done great but my little terrier was left a mess. It was just a clean up, face ears and feet but the front feet were left long and his ears were not done and his mustache was lopsided.. I have to fix the entire little trim up which is ridiculous. I tried to call to get a refund for my little one and the owner was the RUDEST person I ever talked to. I've never met him and I've taken my dogs there before. NOW I WILL NOT BE RETURNING. Now they are trying to say I yelled at them? The man so rude and I had to ask him to be nice to me multiple times. Yes they offered for me to bring him back but I have a busy schedule and set the time and already brought him in. It is not my fault as a customer to make sure you do the services your suppose to do. and asking me to take more time out of my day/week to return to fix it is unprofessional. All I asked was for was my money back for one dog. But when I started looking at my bank I noticed they also over charged me. Tried calling back and nothing. I've been taking my dogs here for over a year but after this experience they will not be receiving my money. read more

They have always done a great job with making sure my yorkies hairs is exactly how I want it.

They did an amazing job on my shih tzu. Would highly recommend and they are definitely my baby's new groomers

Well I'm disappointed, I've been going here for maybe three four years, back when they were on Douglas Blvd. Took my dogs in today and was charged $80 for what used to cost $40. Now I get inflation but when you double your price that's out my budget. I paid more for my pup to get groomed than I do for a cut and blowout for myself. And the girl, Melissa who was so great with the dogs. No longer there. It's sad because they are nice people but way over priced for this single mom. read more

Not $70 for an unevenly chopped haircut for my puppy! The cut was so ugly, even her ears were cut uneven, all the way around her neck, all through her body! What a waste of my time and money! The haircut wasn't what I asked for. I will not go back to this pricey place; not the way they took care of my pup's haircut! The ugliest haircut I've ever seen! When I picked up my puppy, she was so traumatized that she laid on bed as soon as we got home all through the night, had diarrhea and wasn't her usual self. The groomer walked away before I can even reach out for my cash to hand the tip! I brought my puppy here for a haircut because of the overall reviews; but unfortunately my experience was the opposite. I wish there is a moneyback guarantee for these types of services! Just sayin'! read more

Highly recommend this place! Very sweet to my 10 month old labradoodle and he looks great. Thank you Stevia! John did the best job yesterday on my pup who wasn't in the best shape. Now he looks great! Thank you Best Paw Forward! read more

It was ok. We have a elderly cat we wanted to get groomed but they have a cut off at 12. That's understandable. The prices seemed higher but it's a specialty request. Overall they had good customer service and were knowledgeable about their services. read more

Amazing! My pup was happy when I picked her up, and looked fantastic! As an owner of a Great Pyrenees...bath time is always a major thing lol. Bringing her here is so much easier, and she was obviously enjoying herself. Thank you! read more

The staff here are way to nice. So accommodating and they welcome your pet with loving arms! I am always reluctant to change grooming locations however, we wanted to give them a try. We took our cocker spaniel in for a cut. What, only $ for the work...we will see. Came back to pick up our dog and the cut was perfect and Stanley (the dog) had a big smile on his face. We will bring Stanley back for his next cut for sure...don't forget to leave a tip for the good work and the way they treat your animal. Reminder: Animals are a gift from God and when we treat animals with love it shows how even better we should treat others! read more

Worst place that we ever tried They just want to shave the dogs We asked them to give them a nice trim for ears and tail and they said no , they only gonna shave them and they will charge extra for dog suffering cause the fur is tangled . They will charge extra for the regular haircuts , in fact shaving ... They are not even listening to what we want , they just care about making money and fast . Plus if u don't go right away to pick up your dog they will charge extra $15 every 30 min ... We will never go back ! Be aware before you go . read more

Love this place; love John great at what he does. When I recently made an appointment with them it was booked and when I came in for my appointment apparently and unfortunately I was booked with somebody who doesn't work there anymore? Said they had called multiple times and left a voicemail when I had checked my voicemails. I didn't find anything from them but when I checked my missed calls, I only had two missed calls and she said that she had been trying to get in contact with me for the last four days before my appointment, and with the two missed calls within those four days that had meant to me that she called once every two days. So after driving 40 minutes, I had to reschedule my appointment with them, on their mistake of booking it with somebody who doesn't work there anymore, I felt like if they knew that I wasn't answering or didn't receive a voicemail then they should've found a time for the day that I originally booked an appointment with them rather than having me drive 40 mins to reschedule... read more

I called on Monday to see if they had any openings and they were able to take my little malteepoo (who looked like a fluffy off white bear) in today. Service war great and my pup monkey came out looking like a little puppy poodle. They do ask if he had any quirks so I was glad I was able to explain it to them. He was so happy and it was also super quick! Dropped him off at 11 and got him by 12:30 which was awesome. Pricing was super reasonable and they did the whole package of bath,brush,cut,nail trim etc. Definitely will be bringing him back here read more

Not worth the price at all. Overly expensive for bare minimum work. They don't do most of the things that are included in the package including teeth cleaning. You can find somewhere cheaper and a much better service elsewhere. Please don't go here they will take your money!! read more

I was hoping I would have found a new spot to take Oreo but unfortunately that will not happen. Pampered Paws was always numero uno but when COVID struck... good luck getting an appointment in a timely manner. Made some calls and found this place. Quite sure it's pretty common and normal for dogs to bark while being caged waiting on their owners. They leave me a voicemail saying .. you need to come get Oreo, she's just barking ( all while she was not polite about this, definitely had attitude ) and you need to come get her. i call her back and she answers the phone with such a nasty tone to voice... why in the world would you work with animals if something as trivial as a dog barking gets under your skin? When i arrive Oreo is in cage and not barking consistently, non stop. Definitely should do a reevaluation of your workers... They did do well on washing Oreo but that phone call with them insisting I come right now because my dog was barking really left a bad taste in my mouth read more
