Lynn groomed my golden doodle until she passed away at the age of 15 1/2. I now have a male poodle who doesn't like anybody but she sure likes Lynn and her trips to Bubbles And Bows. The surface from this Salon is superior to any I have found in the six other states that I have lived in. They are amazing and I have recommended them to my for a baby friends. read more

Bubbles and Bows is the only place to be if you want your furever babies to be treated like family. We lost our groomer we had for 20 years and went to several places trying to find the perfect place for our babies to be pampered.

I brought my two girls to Bubbles N Bows after my friend recommended them to me. I've had bad experiences with previous grooming salon so was looking into finding a good new groomer. They are very professional and extremely friendly as well as being more affordable than what I have been previously paying. I would most definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for a great groomer! read more

Last Thursday, we brought our sweet little boy in for grooming. He walked in happy, healthy and thriving. He walked out wheezing, coughing and gagging. As if he'd been choked. We did everything possible to address the damage. We took him to the emergency hospital three different times and spent thousands of dollars. Tragically, the trauma he experienced was too great. His little body couldn't bounce back from the abuse. He died on Monday of asphyxiation resulting in respiratory failure. Today, we picked up his ashes. PLEASE don't risk your beloved companion's life by allowing these grossly negligent, incompetent people to handle him or her. read more

Everyone is SO nice and very accommodating. My little terrier is very loud and rambunctious!! They do a wonderful job! Highly recommend this terrific grooming spa!!! read more

DO NOT TAKE YOUR DOG HERE!!!!!!!! They cut the top of our dogs head, did not share this with us when we picked him up and noticed his hair is wet from where the wound was oozing!!! I cant believe they did this to my poor dog. I cant imagine how much pain he was in when this was happening. I would be okay if they had shared this with me. No, they tried to cover it up! Absolutely despicable! If they are willing to do this, I cannot imagine what else takes place there. Disgusting. read more

Thank you guys for the wonderful job you do for me and my cat you go above and beyond. I absolutely recommend bubbles and bows to every parent that has fur babies. read more

First time coming here- based off a word of mouth recommendation. Maybe they just do some breeds better than others, but I have a border collie/Aussie/lab mix and cannot get him cut correct properly anywhere. I mean look at this tail?! And uneven butt? I tried to have them fix once at pickup but just not worth it to have my pup go back again. Maybe it was just this specific groomer? On that note- any recommendations for border collie/lab/Aussie mixes in Dayton area?? read more

Have been going here for years but never again. They are rude and my dogs look terrible. Literally no skill or attempt to groom them. My dogs are pretty much shaved. I could have just gotten clippers myself. Very disappointing read more

I brought my corgi here and specified I wanted the butt fluff trimmed short. Come pickup time it didn't seem it was trimmed at all. So they were nice enough to take him back in. It's good for the price but the quality isn't as nice and he spent pretty much all day at the groomers. read more

Do NOT bring your dog here!!! Completely shaved my entire dogs body - face and all including whiskers. It's the end of December and her skin is showing. They did refund my money but we're unapologetic. I have never left a review of anything but feel compelled to warn anyone considering taking their dog here. Please be aware! read more

I have taken my dogs to Dana for years, last time I took them she razor burned my Shih Tzu pee pee, he is so sore, that he just lies around, don't want to go outside to potty, just looks so sad at me. The time before that, she shaved both my Shih Tzu's, this is the second time she has razor burned one of my shih tzues, I will not be back. I do not recommend you take your dog here to Bubbles and bows. read more

I've taken my Pekingese to Bubbles n Bows twice now and I've never had any issue with them. They're quick to book an appointment and they've trimmed our Pekingese exactly how my wife said on both occasions. This last time I took in a picture of what we wanted and that's exactly what we ended up with. All for $30. We'll continue to use Bubbles N Bows. read more

This is the best groomer I have ever been to. I have tried many others and was not happy with them and neither were my babies. I don't like when some groomers need to have babies put on pills before they groom. Everyone of the professionals that work here are fantastic and they treat your pet like it's theirs. My babies love to go there. I drive two hours one way to have my friends at Bubbles and Bows to groom both of my Bichons. Worth the drive! read more

I took my cockapoo in for a haircut and I asked them not to shave him and they shaved him so close. He looks so horrible. I will not go again. They also cut off his gorgeous eye lashes. My dog looks so cold and so bad. Please do not take your dog there. read more

I want to commend these fine BLIND folks for doing such a great job. WAIT A MINUTE.... nobody hires blind groomers. Maybe they do their grooming on a trampoline? They do a horrible job and giving a crap about the client or the dog is not anywhere near the top of their priority list. My dog has consistently come home looking like a total wreck. I've been taking him there for 3 years (yes, I guess I am an idiot for putting up with their crap for so long) but today was the last straw. Incompetence, inconsistency, inconsiderate, another crappy haircut (jagged lines, uneven lengths, bald spots, not cutting per request) and a bleeding paw. I'M DONE! read more

I took my Cavalier in for a puppy cut and my shepherd/retriever mix in for just a wash. They looked great when I picked them up and service was quick even being 3rd in line. That evening I decided I wished the puppy cut had been shorter because we go to the lake and he attracts burrs . I called them the next business day expecting to pay for a partial redo because there was no one at fault. But they were more than happy to redo since we were all "learning" what is best for my dog. An hour later and he was perfect. I just wish I knew how to add a photo! read more

Bubbles N Bows - Figured it out! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Dayton, Ohio

They did an excellent job on my dog. My dog is beautiful. Thank you for the wonderful service.

Took my golden doodle here for a cut yesterday after reading all of the good reviews and having had past good experience with them with our former dog. When I picked my dog up he had been there for seven hours which is ridiculous when my appointment was at 9AM. The usual place I take my dog to has him in and out in three hours max! Initially when he came out he looked okay to me, but when I got him home I found his ears to be bright red, inflamed, with deep knicks and cuts inside and around them. They were bleeding! His belly is also covered in spots where they knicked him from shaving WAY TOO CLOSE. Poor boy is miserable and I had to get an antibiotic ointment from the vet today for him! Even his hair cut on closer inspection isnt quality for what I paid... It's super choppy. And I am so disappointed. I am also feeling very angry about all of his knicks and cuts. This has never happened to him when getting groomed before. I will never come back here. read more

They cut my Shih Tzu's tail with scissors, taped it up and sent him home with me. I had been told it was just a small cut. Once I got home and took off the bandaging I was shocked to see the severity of the injury, not to mention the blood. I rushed him to my vet, where they immediately began working on him. They ended up having to give him four stitches, medicine, cream, and pain/anxiety medication and he had to wear a cone for two weeks. When we dropped off the follow up bill after the two weeks, the owner was incredibly rude and insisted on seeing our dog, saying it was "only a scratch" and grabbed his tail, sticking her nail into his wound. I can't make this up - it was all I could do to remain calm. Worst experience ever. They were unprofessional, unapologetic and irresponsible. Please do not use this place. read more

I have been taking my 3 year old standard poodle to Dana at Bubbles N Bows for almost 2 years. In those two years, I've had zero problems. I searched high and low to find a groomer that could do poodles; and, I will tell you that when it comes to that, Dana is the best in the Dayton area. Since we started going there, my recommendation has led to Bubbles N Bows acquiring at least 7 new clients. I recently added another standard poodle to my home. I called two weeks in advance of an outing that we attend every year with our spoo to make their grooming appointments. I clearly said my name and my dog's names on the phone - even spelled them twice. I even asked the receptionist if she could clarify with Dana that it would be ok to bring them both in on the same day, since I know standard poodles take longer to groom. The girl put me on hold for a few brief moments, and came back to say, "ma'am, Dana said that would be fine". My mom dropped my dogs off for their appointment (as normal) with the instructions I had given her; which was: lamb cut same as normal, a little shorter on Ruskin's legs (his aim is terrible), and don't touch their tails (no one wants a poodle with a lions tail). The receptionist even asked if I wanted them cut shorter on the body - to which my mom responded, "no, she always leaves them longer on their bodies because Ruskin is skinny". Fast forward 4 hours, I pick my dogs up. The shop was an absolute madhouse. People everywhere; all the workers seemed overwhelmed and confused. I also didn't recognize any of them. I paid and hurriedly got my dogs to the car because of how crazy the place was. I didn't have time to look at their cuts. I get home, let the dogs out of the car, and am completely mortified. My gorgeous standard poodle was completely butchered. His head did not look like it belonged on his body; nothing about his cut was even and he had clipper burn on his nose and in between every single toe. There are places on his spine that have zero hair. He has a white patch on his chest that was completely shaved down with a 10 blade. I called the salon as soon as I got home to speak with the owner (and whom I thought had groomed my dogs); I was told she wouldn't be in until next week. I immediately knew what had happened - someone else had groomed my dogs. The girl I spoke with on the phone was very defensive - in regards to the new puppy, she said "I scissored that whole dog". Tell me how it is that I bring two standard poodles in to a shop for the same haircut - one comes out completely shaved, the other is a big fluff ball that wasn't touched. He didn't even receive the equivalent to a tidy trim. The only thing that I could tell was done was that he got a bath and his feet were trimmed. Thankfully, whoever did that did not clipper burn them. My other standard wasn't as lucky. He was being groomed for a Poodle Party that we go to at the lake every year. With how his feet looked; we weren't able to go over fear of them getting infected. He spent the weekend in a cone with Neosporin on his paws. I was told by the lady, Lynn, that groomed Ruskin that there had been a mistake made by the receptionist. My two standard poodles were mistaken for another family members labradoodles. Tell me how in the world standard poodles get mistaken for labradoodles?!?! If you can't tell the difference between a labradoodle and a standard poodle (especially when they are clipped in a typical standard poodle cut); maybe you shouldn't claim to be a professional groomer. Someone (receptionist, bather, groomer, etc...) should have realized that a mistake was made and I should have been called before anything was done to my dogs. I would have gladly picked them up and waited to take them back when Dana was in. If you know anything about standard poodles - you'll know that it's difficult to grow out their ears and maintain them; it'll take months for my spoo's ears to look the same as they did before the hack job he received. Dana called me on Saturday - really all that came out of the conversation was her offering for me to bring the dogs in that day to have them fluffed up for the party. There was no fluffing up that could be done - my dog was completely shaven down on his body. It also would have been the same people that butchered him before doing the work since Dana was not in...so, my point on that was completely missed. I was told that there could be a "red flag" put in the system so that I would be notified in the future if a similar situation were to happen again. I got a lot of "I'm sorry's" but no one ever acknowledged how terrible of a hack job was done on my dog - I even showed pictures when I came in to the store to pick up my refund (which the owner wanted to put in the mail instead). Bottomline for me - Your business is as good as how it runs when the owner isn't there - Bubbles N Bows completely lost my trust in this regard. read more

I've been to this groomers once. When I dropped my dog off they asked her name what cut and what breed of dog she was. My dog is a Britney spaniel (not pure bred, got her from the pound 12 years ago). I have never had her breed disputed with me, however the woman at the front asking the questions seemed to know better than me and told me to "Try again" with what breed my dog is. Not starting out well. Simply looked over this because costumer service sucks sometimes. I dropped her off at 9 and they told me she'd be ready before three (as she was to be fully buzzed, this was normal). When I called at three to see if she was ready the woman responded "oh yeah she's ready sorry we must've forgotten to call you." That is exactly what I do not want to hear. My dog is 13 years old stressed out of her mind by being there and not used to being caged at all. Go to pick her up and she is not barely aware that I am taking her home (barely wagging her tail, doesn't lick me, come near me at all) would not get into the car and acted like she was going to get sick. When I got her home she couldn't get enough water. And now a day later she is having liquid diarrhea (she has NEVER had that). I'm not completely certain she was sedated, and that is very big statement to make, but it's definitely a big thought in my mind. And they definitely did not tell me they do that. I do NOT recommend going here. read more
