Wanda is by far the best doggie cleaner washer the far. She is kind and her prices are very reasonable.

We have been going to canine cleaners for over 15 years now. She's amazing and we have nothing but good things to say about her. And the cost is way more reasonable than what's being charged nowadays. I drive 20 minutes to get to her place and it's well worth it and I will never go anywhere else. read more

Easy to get grooming appointments and our pup is always taken care of. We have been coming regularly and cost for haircut and bath is very reasonable read more

My cocker was groomed exactly as I asked. She even clipped around her moles. Will definitely bring her again.

My pup is very picky about who can get close to clean or groom her and is always comfortable here. Thankful to the kind, thoughtful, dog loving service here. read more

I love this place. Wanda is amazing. My dogs are always so happy to see her. She makes them feel very much at home and always gives them an amazing cut and bath. Thank you Wanda for taking care of my fur babies. read more

Canine Cleaners - Chloe and Cali after a visit to Canine Cleaners - Pet Groomers Near Me - San Diego, California

First time was ok, nothing great but so close to home that I decided to give it a second try. It was the worse haircut my schnauzer got in his 14 years of life! read more

A mom and pop place she does a great job! When you pick up your pup she has treats to purchase and a kind word to give. Price is very reasonable! Highly recommend. read more

When it come to nail trimmings, Canine Cleaners is so much better than PetSmart. Actually, I have found that the smaller businesses take the time to do the trims right, whereas, PetSmart kind of rushes through it. Wanda is so awesome. We have a 50 lb Stafforshire Terrier who hates getting her nails trimmed and Wanda got is done with ease. My husband just had to hold her still and Wanda started clipping and filing away. Diamond, our dog, didn't put up a fight at all. We will definitely be taking our dogs here for their trims from now on. We have to go back every two weeks until Diamond's quick gets pushed back because they got really long. Thank you, Wanda! read more

Wanda of Canine Cleaners is a caring wonderful woman with untold years of experience grooming and loving dogs. This is the type of place you love to support and recommend to all your friends. Wanda knows what looks good for your dog, knows how to do it, and does it better than anyone else I've ever met. With the level of attention my dog receives while grooming, he actually doesn't want to leave when I go to pick him up. Groomings here are no more expensive than Petco, but the level of attention and experience Wanda brings is unmatched, period. read more

Our first time here. Wanda was wonderful. She did exactly what we discussed as far as grooming details for our yorkie. Our little guy is a bundle of energy and he can give people a run for his mo eu, but Wanda was still able to handle him and groom him how I wanted. We paid with debit card and there were no issues. I've read comments that Wanda is rude if you pay with a card, but she wasn't. She was just fine. We will be back! Thanks Wanda! read more

I love canine cleaners! Wanda is so good with my German Shepard. He hates other dogs so I dread taking him places but as soon as he's in her hands, she takes control and it's always the best experience! So happy this is close by and she works mornings which are great with my schedule. Thank you Wanda! read more

I cant imagine going back to any other groomer ever again after going to Wanda. We have a samoyed and brush him every day and have gone to many other groomers for cleaning and brushing. But after going to Wanda I have never seen him more clean, tangle free, and soft in my life! He looks and feels absolutely beautiful. I am beyond happy with the work that Wanda put in. Don't let the small shop fool you, Wanda really knows what she's doing and really cares about dogs so much. Sorry to all the other groomers who have now lost my business to Wanda! Haha I will only be coming here from now on. read more

We have two dogs, a golden retriever and a dachshund mix, and have been so pleased with both dogs grooming experience... they do a great job! read more

Wanda has done a great job for me and my long-haired GSD. He is dog reactive and, like a previous poster stated , it can be stressful taking him into places where other dogs will be present. Wanda is always very accommodating of our issues. She will give me the earliest morning slot so we are the first "people" there. She has clipped my dog's nails many times and is thoughtful and caring of him in doing so. My dog can tell she is a friend and he turns into putty in her hands. My pal is very afraid of the blow dryer but the last time he was there, he was so comfortable that he allowed her to blow him out. I was beyond astonished. She had fashioned a towel turban around his ears to minimize the noise for him and to make him feel safe. As to other reviews I read, Wanda is not rude or short. Wanda is just a straight shooter. She's just busy doing her best for the dog in front of you and she will do her best for yours as well. She may tell the dogs in the crates to "pipe down" but she does it in a "tongue-in-cheek" manner - -probably the way we all talk to our own dogs when they are going crazy. Her prices are very reasonable and I enjoy interacting with her. I probably shouldn't even post this because I want her to myself. Thank you, Wanda. read more

I have been going to Canine Cleaners for 6 years now. I used to live in Tierrasanta and moved a couple years ago, to Chula Vista..... I am still going to Wanda everytime! She not only does great with my Westie's crazy hair but knows what to do with any type of behavior or physical issue I have with my Westie. Always faithful customer! Rosemary read more

Been going to Wanda for well over 10 years.....she is a delightful, kind and fun person...goes out of her way to make your pet comfortable. Her work is terrific......very reasonable....knows dogs...have asked her before seeing a 'vet' about this or that... as she has seen it all! Delivered my dog home (my fault being late) when couldn't get back in time. Who does that? She's great. Have read a couple of the negative reviews below...voted them as 'funny,' as they are....don't believe them...some people just have issues, or just are a pain in the arse. Wanda is a "Crack-up!" read more

Wanda is the best. Wouldn't take my Sasha dog to anyone else. Whenever I pick my girl up I feel a little jealous . She is so comfortable and clean and content it seems as though she'd just as soon stay as come home with me. read more

I have a dog that is really difficult to groom in terms of both her behavior and her coat. I took her to Canine Cleaners after months of not being groomed during quarantine, and Wanda did an exceptional job. Her rates are also very reasonable for the service she provides. read more

I take Owen my dog to this place once a month. Can't say enough about this place. Highly recommended.. there awesome!! And the price is right read more

I called to inquire about their grooming services and was spoken to by an employee that sounded like I was wasting her time. It definitely turned down my interest and any motivation to give them business. read more

I have taken my dog Lucy Lu to this groomer twice and I have been very pleased with the results. The lady that gives her a cut is very patient and gentle with her. I highly recommend Canine Cleaners. read more

I've never written a review before but I just had to share that Wanda is such a kind and caring person to all animals. We have an 18 year old dog and it is very hard for her to go anywhere in the car. We needed her nails clipped badly, so Wanda came over to our house and did it. She hung out with our dog for at least a half hour until Mulan got used to her. She was so gentle with her. She stayed for at least an hour, answering all my questions, and she was focused on our dog the whole time. She did not even charge extra for the time and love she poured out on our dog. read more

Wanda is god sent! We have been taking our kids to Wanda for years and we so appreciate her. Darcy and Hunter were just there this morning. What can I say, she keeps our kids clean and fresh! It saves US the time and energy. She is just plan good with dogs and always pleasant to talk with when we drop off and pick up. She is also affordable. She provides us a valuable service and we would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Wanda! read more

There is absolutely no one as kind to your pets as Wanda. She really knows how to make their grooming experience pleasant and she loves them all so much. She took care of our Zeppy for almost 15 years and we would recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, kind and reasonable groomer. read more

After taking my dog to Petsmart for the last couple years, we decided to try out Canine Cleaners which is conveniently located in our town center. The groomer was incredibly friendly and my dog reacted well to her. Ditch Petsmart and try Canine Cleaners! read more

Wanda is so wonderful! She is caring and great with our little boy (a cavalier king charles spaniel). She knows exactly what we want out of his winter and summer haircuts. Grooming price is similar to Petco but the attention to details is exceptional. I highly recommend Wanda to any pet owner! read more

I never felt comfortable talking to Wanda over the phone to set up an appointment for my little yorkie because, in my personal opionion, she seems little rude over the phone and she doesn't seem to appreciate the business (again, over the phone only). However, whenever I do see her to drop my dog off to her or to pick him up, she's a pleasant person who seemed to care for what she does and seemed like she's pretty good with all dogs and handle them well. That's why I keep taking my yorkie to her even tho I dread calling for an appoitment. it's weird but I trust her completely. WEIRD!!!!! read more

A really good groomer! I highly recommend WANDA WASH. She is very caring and is truly a wonderful person. I thank her for taking my dog last minute today. I have lived in Tierrasanta 8 years and nobody anywhere around is as good as Canine Cleaners. Support the small business owner! read more

I love Canine Cleaners. Wanda spends the time with my two dogs, and she's willing to work with me for drop-off and pick ups since I have to be at work all day. Wanda always does a good job and I highly recommend her to anyone!! read more

Wanda is the best! She is the next best thing to a Vet....always friendly, helpful and SHE knows Dogs! Been going to her for at least 3 years....always great. read more

We've been taking our pets to Wanda for at least 10 years. She takes great care of our dog and is very kind and caring. She is also flexible with her schedule to accommodate mine. I love to support local businesses. Wanda is great! read more

The whole experience for my dog and me was terrible. I dropped her off and was told to come back in 4 hours. At 2 hours the groomer called and said to come down now as she was barking too much and she was worried the nearby shops would complain. I came right down and my dog was in a cage with the fan blowing on her. Her bark was so hoarse. She was apparently scared of the fan. Rather than see a distressed dog and try to accommodate her the groomer kept yelling at her to shut up, even in front of me. I'm in the animal health care industry and can recognize a distressed dog. My poor dog was the most upset I've ever seen her. I wish the groomer would have been more caring of my dog and recognize her distress. When I got her back she was panting excessively and her mucus membranes were pale. Once home she drank a ton of water and literally slept the rest of the day which she never does. I WILL NEVER TAKE HER HERE AGAIN! read more

We have went to Wanda twice now for our Maltese and golden doodle, both times I have been very happy with our results. She listens to what we want and our concerns. The dogs were both happy when I picked them up. She gave advice on how to maintain their coats. And I left not feeling overcharged! We will definitely be going back to see Wanda in a few months when the pups need a fresh cut again! read more

I would like to know Wanda's secret. My six-month-old Shih Poo loves Wanda so much after only three visits. She comes out looking cuter every time. I don't know how Wanda is able to wash, cut, trim, clip and dry her when I can't touch a paw for a second without being snapped at. I was afraid when Wanda called she was going to ask me to pick up my puppy for bad behavior, but she said "Miss Eden is ready." So much fun picking up my clean, fluffy, adorable and happy little puppy. Wanda was recommended by several friends and neighbors who have taken their dogs to her for over 20 years. read more

Wanda Is the female dog whisperer. She is wonderful with dogs! I have a dog with aggression problems and Wanda puts her at ease...in fact, she loves going to see Wanda now....I highly recommend her and have been using her for 8 years....reasonably priced....she knows her stuff! If I move out of town, I'm flying Wanda in to wash my dogs!!!!! read more

Horrible. Their customer service is absolutely horrific. They laugh and make fun of every person that comes in their salon. Being in the industry myself I know how people should be treated when being welcomed into a salon and they did the complete opposite of that. I'm surprised that clients even come back here. I wish I could give negative stars on this salon. read more

BEST GROOMER EVER!!! Not only does she genuinely care for your pets, she in completely aware no one can afford weekly grooming and such. We have a 5 month old Border Collie [VERY HYPER!] that has come down with a case of the "itchies". Wanda helped me calm Bug down enough for her to look at her skin with a fine tooth comb, and not a flea in sight. We kinda figured this so I asked why is she itching SO MUCH! So bad to the point where she has baby scabs where she nibbles at her leg all day. Wanda told me it's either A. Dry skin, or B. Allergies. SO! her amazing solution... FRREEEE Products!! :D I don't know about you but I LOVE FREE! haha! She gave me a 5 pound bag of all natural puppy chow, and a salmon gravy formula for her skin. We're trying it now and Bug LOVES the stuff. It's going to take a while to see if it works, but honestly the fact that she could have said, "Sure, let me wash your dog and see if that helps." but didn't is all the reason I need to give her 5 stars. SHE WILL HELP YOU! :D Just give her a call, and if you think she comes off rude on the phone TRUST ME, she's really a sweetheart, thats just her personality. She won't let you down!! read more
