DO NOT TAKE YOUR PETS HERE! This had been our place of choice to get our pets groomed for years, with in the last year and a half it's been awful. My pets are always coming home cut by the blades or with a completely different hair cut than what was asked for, random long pieces of hair. I thought maybe a one time thing but no, this is the 3rd time mine and my sister poodles come home with blade burns and cuts. I can only image how the pets are treated while there, I don't mind paying $120 plus tip for pet to be in good hands and well taken care of but this place has change their groomer or owner because it's the WORST!! read more

If I could give a zero star review I would! I have a 8 lb Toy Aussie and after I picked him up I noticed that they left a clump of hair on his tail and I asked them to please shave it off. As the guy was taking him back to the room, he dropped my dog on the floor! He seems to be ok but I will be keeping an eye on him to make sure that there isn't any injury to his little body. My little guy is over 10 years old and this may or could have caused serious damage. I do not recommend this business to take care of your most precious pet! read more

We have used Canine Cottage for our 2 Shih Tzus for several years. They are affordable and do a good job with our girls. They always ask what we think when we pick them up, and offer to re-do anything we're not happy with. Our girls are excited when we take them to Canine Cottage, which is a good sign of how they are treated! read more

My family has used this groomer for 20 years. I took my dog in for her usual groom and she came back with half of her eyelashes cut off on one eye and SIX nails that were cut down to the quick and had dried blood on them where they were cut. unacceptable. Will be finding another groomer. read more

We love taking our dog there whenever she needs a groom. She loves the staff and we are always pleased! It's a small family owned business and we couldn't imagine going anywhere else! Thank you Canine cottage read more

Sucks. Don't go there. Unless you want your pets drugged and injured . They cut my dogs skin so bad i had to go get him stitches and it cost me over $600. read more

Happy to report that I had a pleasant experience with the Canine Cottage. The owner was quick efficient. Also, she was very professional on the phone and also in person. It was quick, affordable and painless! My dog wasn't an easy groom since it's been some years since she's had a haircut and I am proud to say she actually looks like a dog now! I've already recommended new customers. Thank you to the Canine Cottage. Happy to support a good local business! read more

Ammoretti came home having missed us- but looking healthy clean and not desperate like after other stays. She appears to have had visits and walks. She acts like an abused abandoned woman when we leave for 5 minutes normally so, to see her so calm after a long stay makes us all HAPPY! read more

Canine Cottage - Clean and Happy after 7 day stay! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Sparks, Nevada

This place is old school,and I mean that in a good way. You will not have to wait 3 weeks for a groom. When you walk in, they have a 3x5 card, handwritten, the exact history of your dog, accurate, the groomers notes, the right shave,. There are no computers. They do not accept credit cards. They are simply the best groomers around, and they will get you in within a few days. read more

I love the fact that I got my cat right in, friendly staff, and great haircut. I'm not sure who actually did the cut but Smokey and I both love it read more

I am very upset right now. We've been taking my pup here for years but I feel that as of late, what we want done doesn't matter as much as it use to. My parents just brought my dog home and they did exactly what we told them not to. The lady that was there said she had told the girl who did my dogs hair twice, to not shave his tail as requested but my pup came home with a shaved tail anyway. My parents were then STILL charged full price. I cant believe they didnt even give them a complementary cut or at least a discount. Not to mention his ears came back extremely short. I'm very disappointed. We've been going there for 15 years. Will not be back again. Side note: My father told me that they once injured my dogs leg while being groomed, he had come back limping. If I would've known about this sooner I would've definitely stopped going there asap. read more

We took our two-year-old dog to get groomed with no appointment scheduled but they were able to get her squeezed into the schedule. Overall the haircut looked decent but they left her collar on as tight as it could possibly be luckily we caught it in time. After we picked up our dog she was not being herself not one bit. I assume she didn't like the staff very much which isn't very normal because when we took her to a groomer before she was acting nothing like this. Definitely the last time I will ever bring my dog here. read more

First time taking my little Lily here and it was a pleasant experience. The lady in the front was very nice and was able to get us in a day before thanksgiving. When I picked her up I was pleasantly surprised how good she looked and had cute little bows on as a bonus. Great affordable prices! Took a little longer than expected but overall very satisfied. Thank you!! read more

This is a cute little mom and pop grooming place where I go to get my dog's nails cut. The price was very affordable. They were very quick and friendly on this visit and in the past. When my dog needs a good groom or brush out I will try that service out too! read more

My mother and I use to bring both of our dogs here for years, but after our pups had passed it was a while since we'd needed their services. I was so happy to have gotten a new puppy. He was a bit wild, and could get aggressive when scared. I warned the man on the phone of that, and also told that to the lady when I dropped him off. I also let them BOTH know that this was his first time being groomed professionally. The said that that was fine. I showed up right at the time of his appointment and they took him back. Said it would be 3-4 hours (which is ridiculous, but he really needed a hair cut and they were the only ones who could get him in in such short notice). After 3.5 hours I wanted to call and check in with them. Sometimes they have them done early and just haven't had the time to call yet. The woman answered the phone and first had no idea what dog I was talking about, which made me panic. Then she said "Oh...him." Which made me even more nervous. She then explained how he tried to bite them all and that he had been aggressive. I apologized but told her that I did try to warn her and the man on the phone. (My boy was about 4-5 lbs at the time, just to give a better picture. I understand that any dog that bites could be s) I go to pick him up, and she disappears into the back to go and get him. I wait for 3-5 minutes before she comes back and tells me I have to go back there and get him, he won't come to her. So I go in the back where it's very dark and crowded with a bunch of dog crates. They have him in this huge XL crate. I squat down and call him and he comes running to me, shaking and crying. I paid the woman and then left. I will never come back to this business again. PET OWNERS BEWARE! If you love your little babies as much as I love mine, please go somewhere else! read more

My family has been taking all of our dogs to canine cottage since the original owners in the 70's. Yes the faces have changed except for the lady that took over that worked for the original owners. She is always polite and the prices are more than reasonable. As for some of the negative reviews I have seen, dont believe them. After 40+ years, I have never seen an example of what some are saying. read more

This place took really good care of my yorkie and miniature schnauzer. They got both dogs done in 3.5 hours and their haircuts were perfect.

The best groomer ever! Our dog is always so happy to go there. They always do a wonderful clean cut or shampoo. They also are extremely accommodating. I tried spanish springs groomer once and I took my dog back the second time and he was trying to get out of his collar he was so terrified. Indicative to something bad happening his first time there. Canine cottage is a place he loves to go to. Highly recommend them. read more

I took my newly adopted dog here today, it's my first time having to visit a groomer so I was a little worried, especially when he was so scared! But when I came back 2 hours later (a little earlier than the nice lady had estimated) he was so happy! He smells nice, his coat is clean and short, and I am happy I was able to get him in so quick and for a nice price. He heavily resembled a mop prior to our visit, so I am pretty impressed. read more

This place was very flexible with time. I was able to get my 8lb little girl in the next day. They asked many questions to make sure I was getting what I wanted. They were done within 2 hours. The bathing, grooming and nail clipping was done very well. When I picked up my dog, she was happy. I will be using their services again for sure. read more

We have been taking our dog here for at least 4 years. I was always pleased with the job they did, until recently. The last 3 times I took my dog they did a bad job. He has a few moles and I always remind them when I drop him off about them, and they have cut them the last 3 times. The most recent time (and the last time) I took him in, he had an appointment for 11 o clock and they told me 2 hours. I called 2 1/2 hours later and they said it would be another half hour. I called 45 minutes later and they told me that they had some WALK INS, and he still wasn't done. I made an appointment, not to mention I'm a regular, so I would think my dog would get done before a walk in. Well, I finally got to pick him up 4 hours later. He had the worst hair cut and they had clipped his moles! I am going to take him somewhere else next time. They lost my business for sure. read more

I would liken this place to your favorite hidden secret dive bar. It's not the newest high tech facility, but I called on a Saturday morning and she was able to get us in that same afternoon. The owner is very nice and the prices are very reasonable. We were quoted about 2 hours, but she called to say he was done after 90 minutes. I will go back! read more

Over the past couple years I've taken my toy poodles and cocker spaniel mix here to get groomed every so often and I will say the cuts were always different, sometimes they were better than others, sometimes the eye boogers weren't cleaned as good as they had been before but I never specified what I wanted done and every time I would bring them in they were a mess and the price was ALWAYS more than reasonable and the cuts were always even and smooth. On Saturday I took my poodle to get cut and asked for a Mohawk and they didn't mind at all and this time I specified I wanted his eye boogers cleaned and she said they always do but okay, about an hour later I picked him up and his hair cut was great and his eye boogers were pretty cleaned up but when we got in the car I noticed him squinting his eyes which was strange, he doesn't do that. We got home and at that point he was keeping his eyes closed and hiding in the house, clearly in pain. So I thought maybe something was in his eyes so I rinsed it out and but a warm rag on them and thought he would sleep it off but 5 hours later he was still doing it and so we called to see if anything had happened while he was there and they said no but if it's still like that tomorrow to bring him back in and they'll put eye drops in, we knew he was in pain and we were worried so we took him to the emergency vet and turned out that he had a corneal ulcer in each eye, the vet couldn't say if it was cause from the groomers but she did say it could be from sharp objects hitting the eye or harsh chemicals or even him scratching his eyes and so we got sent home with pain meds and ointment to put in his eyes every 6 hours. We weren't going to cause a fuss because we had never had a problem with Canine Cottage in the past so we never called them the day after but they called us! They wanted to know how he was doing, that surprised me, I told them everything and they offered to reimburse us for the vet bill and that they were very sorry and they don't know how it happened. I went in the next day and the lady wasn't there so I left and then she called me later and told me she was sorry she missed me and to come by anytime before 5 so I went back and she reimbursed the whole bill and was very apologetic. I'm throughly impressed, they went above and beyond to contact me and make sure they fixed they're mistake (I think she knew they messed up). Based on the looks of the place I never would have thought they would be like that, I will definitely be going back! :) read more

This place is Reno's best kept secret! I have taken my puppy to many different groomers and have had the best service here thus far! Not only was the service great and the staff understanding of my puppy's matted hair, they were willing to fix it. I had a horrible experience at another groomer earlier that week and they said there was nothing they could do. Here the welcomed him with open arms and told me it would take a few hours, which was no problem. I came back to a cute teddy bear faced puppy with a great all over groom! Usually I find areas where the hair is uneven but I didn't find one! Also they gave me tips for future upkeep which is great, my pups hair has been coming back less matted, and growing substantially with a nice even coat. I will definitely be coming back and recommend others do as well. Great prices, great service and great groomers all around :) read more

This is the worst groomer I have ever experienced. My friend has a beautiful pure bred Siberian Husky and went to this groomer to get her undercoat brushed, tail trimmed, bath and blow out.. the usual. She walked in to a horror show. Her husky had been shaved from head to toe leaving only a bushy tail. THIS IS NOT WHAT WAS ASKED FOR. Any well educated groomer would know you can't shave a double coat dog. Her coat will never grow in the same, it is about to be winter she can get sick and in the summer her skin will be extremely vulnerable to the sun sensitivity will cause sunburns and in extreme cases skin cancer. And when she started to cry upon seeing her baby the owner and multiple employees began to laugh at her and the dog. This is extremely inappropriate and unprofessional. I absolutely DO NOT recommend this place to anyone who cares for their animals. I will be filing a legal complaint against this business and the owner. Hopeful something like this never happens again. When called the next day in regards to this situation the owner was defensive and rude and denied ever having touched the dog. When informed a complain would be filed she laughed and said "okay" never once showed any empathy for their horrendous work or behavior. read more

They did a good job ... Could of had cuter bows but over all good they treated my puppy kind and did a ok job

They are quick and very polite. Cooper isn't nervous to go in and he comes out happy. Their prices are fair and their smile says it all!

Maria, the owner, is very nice and took a lot of time to find out what I wanted. I was happy with the groom and the time it took them to groom my older dog. read more

My 80 year old mother boarded her small dog with these people over Christmas and when she picked him up he was very subdued almost as if he had been given a tranquilizer. In addition his feet and backside were covered in feces and he sounded hoarse from barking but the attendant said he had not barked much at all. My mom had to bathe him and the blanket she brought for him when she got home and It took several hours for him to return to normal activity. My mother took the time to tour the facility before choosing them to care for her dog so be wary, what you may see is not the reality of what your fur baby will experience! read more

Hi Animal lovers, i would never go back there, they did a great job on my lhaso apsos haircut, but they drugged her, she was out of it, when i picked her up, until later that evening, all i can say is they should b put out of business. read more

Owner Maria is so sweet. They do a great job on my yorkies haircuts and always put a cute little bandanna on him.

My wife and I have been going to the cottage for around six to seven years. We have a very unruly yorkie and weiner mix that the groomer maria has always done a quality job with. She has a way with our dogs that I can only describe as "dog whisper" like. If you are looking for a quality groomer that will take the time to do it right then you are in the right place. read more

It's like a hole in wall or dive bar for dog grooming! If I didn't see people picking up and leaving their dogs I probably wouldn't have left mine. However I called on a Saturday morning and was able to get her in that afternoon with no problems. When I dropped her off they were very nice and I was told it'd take about two hours but I got a call in a hour that she was ready! I was very pleased her cut was as I asked and for the price and friendly people I will be going back! read more
