My dog loves going to this daycare and it's a very friendly place. The workers are lovely. Wish that training services were included.

I have been using K-9 for my senior Havanese since 2019. They are very nice and makes it easy for him and it is n stressful

Canine to Five is great when it comes to grooming - Lisa is amazing. I've got a nervous nelly sheepdog & Lisa is so caring with him. She does everything to get him groomed quickly so he's not waiting around ratcheting up his anxiety. She's awesome dealing with any matting & always gives Clyde such a great haircut. 10 Stars for Lisa! read more

I picked my baby up from school and came home to this. She was there for five days, and it cost me $536. No one could explain what happened, and no one even told me it happened to her. I love Sasha so much, and this breaks my heart. She can't speak up for herself, and that makes it even harder. People see a pit bull and assume the worst, but she's nothing but a sweetheart. I hate that this happened to her read more

have been taking my dog here since she was a puppy! although group play is not her thing, she has been loving positive enrichment. so thankful there are options for dogs who like more one on one time read more

I'm an Ex-long time customer. Used to take my chichi's there for nail trims. Came in about 2:30 on a Saturday, just missed the cut off for walk in nail trims so I asked the young ladies at the front desk to set an appointment so I could make sure I got in. Burger King customer service is 10x better. The ladies looked at me like I was wasting their time, and rudely gave me a bunch of BS cuz they wanted to shoo me out the door. They must have had better things to do. They must be making soo much money now they don't need regulars any more. Im grateful this happened. It forced me to look at other options and so glad I did. Petco is cheaper you, can make appointments via the app, better hours, and the customer service is on point. read more

used to be good. now horrible. especially grooming do NOT sending your dog to this grooming. we will no longer be customers.

I have been taking my dogs to this facility for over 10 years. I'm comforted in knowing that when I leave to go out of town, my fur babies will be well taken care of. The staff is super friendly and helpful, the facility is always spotless and my girls are super excited every time they go! I couldn't imagine taking them any place else. read more

Canine to Five - Penelope ready for the fun to begin! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

Don't ever take your dog here. I dropped my dog Henrik off to get groomed at their Midtown Detroit location recently. The lady at the front desk told me the groomer was ready for him and she took Henrik from me in the lobby. My apartment is a couple of minutes away. As soon as I got home (not even 5-minutes after I dropped him), I got a call saying Henrik had broken his tooth and was bleeding and that they cannot groom him anymore. I got back in my car to go get him. I walked in to find him soaking wet all over his body (they rinsed all the blood off him), and his mouth was gushing blood. They told me that Henrik bit the cage they had put him in because the groomer that took him (who they claimed was ready for him) put him in a cage to finish another dog's nails for "5-mins". I did not drop my dog to get locked/boarded, I dropped him to get groomed, and they told me they were ready for him. I would have waited that "5-mins" in the lobby with him. They told me Henrik must have gotten nervous and bit the cage they put him in, resulting in him deeply fracturing his top right canine tooth. The photo the employee had texted me of the cage (attached) shows me exactly why Henrik would have been scared. They put him in a small barred cage right next to 2 HUGE LOUD DRYING TUBES (to blow-dry the dogs). Clearly not the right cage to put the dogs in. I called my vet (VCA of Farmington Hills) and they told me to take Henrik to the emergency room immediately. I took him to BluePearl in Southfield and they told me there was nothing they could do and that he needed dental surgery, and that he was lucky he didn't break his jaw. The owner of Canine to Five gave me a call per my request and she ended up sending me over a waiver I signed 3 years ago releasing them from any liability. Real sweet of her. I told her about Henrik needing surgery and how they should cover the costs of this since he was in their care when it happened and they were negligent. I asked her how that was ethical as they had been negligent to my dog and she told me Henrik did it to himself.. "self-inflicted". Not to mention the employee I spoke to prior said the drying tubes block the cage Henrik was in from the cameras so I'll never really know what happened. The owner said she has had her business for 15 years and was "confident" in how they handle the dogs and their facilities.. clearly not. I found many other reviews on Google and Yelp of negligence and the owner not caring. I told her that I hope they can make this right. She then gave me her attorney's information. Even sweeter of her. Henrik was crying and kept poking and biting his tongue for days and was gushing blood. I finally took him in for surgery the following Tuesday of the incident and they had to put a tube down his throat and give him anesthesia, and then they had to remove his whole canine tooth due to the fracture being so deep. It was about $1000.  He is barely 4 years old and will live the rest of his life without his canine tooth. Avoid this place if you care about your dog. :) read more

if I could rate them a 0 stars I would. We had taken my dog here multiple times and everything seemed fine. we booked a boarding stay while we would be out of town for 5 days. while we were gone my dog had been attacked at the midtown detroit location in august. they downplayed the situations saying that he didn't get too hurt from the altercation. In reality seeing him in person brought me to tears. I wouldn't have even know he got attacked if it wasn't for me going to look at the cameras at the right time. I got one story when I called and asked what was going on and if he was okay and why the other dog had just attacked mine and then a completely other story when going to pick him up. they said they would let me know how he was doing in the morning since I was out of town and couldn't get him right away. I had NEVER been reached out to like I said I would and when I asked why no one had bothered to get back to me when going in to speak with them I had been told the manager was busy. if anything is more important than my injured dog I would love to know as to what it was. they didn't say sorry about it or even that they would mark down his boarding due to this horrendous incident. They said the other dog was excused from coming back but it doesn't make up for the lack of communication to me and the injuries and anxiety my dog now faces because of it. After this we waited a couple months to bring him to a group play/boarding. instead of going to the detroit location we decided we wanted to do ferndale canine to five since we moved and the last incident made things very hard to get over. we brought him in specifically told them to keep a watch on him especially since it's his first time back and they said he would. they said he did great and he would be fine for when we do have to board him for a couple of days. comes the time for vacation and we get a call saying he was playing with another dog and the dog had nicked him in the face giving him a scratch I told them it was completely understandable he has a white face and things happen and was very grateful for the update. next day comes and they say he seems to be having a lot of anxiety and they might take him to one on one just to calm him down and make sure he's not overwhelmed since it was day 5 since him being there. I was yet again very happy with the communication and had said that I was more than okay with one on one and if it persist and he seems uneasy keep him in there for the duration of the stay. next morning comes and I get a call saying he has been in an altercation ! I was caught off guard because last time I had spoken we had talked about him not being put in group play if he was still anxious and scared from there being so many animals and not being home. they said he was fine and that he wouldn't need to be picked up right away. I still changed my flight to get there as soon as possible. come to get him NO manager comes to help or explain what went on. they had overcharged over 200$ more than what it was suppose to cost and when I had asked for a manager the response was that he had to put it in his group chat for work for the manager to reach out when possible. i've never been to a facility where there is no manager on site. When bringing him home every time he was active and got excited he would cough. I called emergency vets and on monday my vet both said not kennel cough but probably something to do with his throat being injured. Makes sense due to his throat having gauges all down the side of his face and throat. Not only have I yet again have been let down but my dog has too. this time he has been 10x more anxious and it breaks my heart. I will NEVER again take him to this or any other canine to give location. read more

I had heard great things about Canine to Five and was looking forward to trying them out for a long weekend trip. Upon requesting a reservation, they called to inform me that my dog has to come in for a temperament test prior to the stay. Usually this service is free at most facilities, but they charge a standard daycare fee, so I paid $35. Disappointing that Canine to Five benefits from this regardless of the result of the test, but oh well. When I picked up my dog, he smelled of urine and had a stain on his ear from a cleaning solution. I promptly cancelled my reservation and requested a refund for the temperament test. They did not give me a refund and instead offered a free bath if I ever brought him in again. I mean, okay, but he currently smells like urine - so you're basically asking me to drive all the way back just for a bath - at the end of the day I'm left to correct your error myself. I was pretty disappointed in this outcome - I paid for a service and the quality of the service was extremely low. How can you run a dog daycare facility and not ensure the dog goes home in acceptable conditions? What if a dog gets bruised, bitten, or injured when the staff member wasn't looking? Or steps in another dog's pee? And why is someone mopping floors while dogs are playing? A basic final checkup/inspection is expected when I'm paying someone to take responsibility for my pet while I'm away. Their refusal to compensate with a refund is pretty shocking. I guess we have differing expectations of what good pet care is. Not sending my dog here again. read more

I simply love the service here, they treat my BRODY like the handsome baby he is!!!

My dog had been to Canine to Five twice before for grooming. The time prior he got a small cut on his pee-pee. I called afterwards to let them know. I should've have known better. In January I took my dog to Canine to Five for grooming I dropped him off and went to RiteAid less than 5 mins away. By the time I got to the store less than 10 minutes after dropping him off they called to ask me to come back because my dog was injured and they couldn't continue to groom him. When I arrived they had my dog at the front desk. He had been "nicked" by the groomer and was bleeding. They thought he might need stitches. I have an 8lb yorkiepoo. He was shaking and bleeding on his belly. When I took him from them to inspect the injury, I saw he was cut and bleeding just above his pee-pee. I started crying and was super upset. The manager was explaining what happened when the owner walked through the lobby. She stops and says "don't cry, if it was my dog I wouldn't be upset". Ok!!!! Well sorry you don't give a crap if your animal was cut with a trimmer less than an inch of its pee-pee and it bleeding. I told them he needed to go to the vet to see if it need stitches. Before I left I said that I will be sending them the bill. They tried to tell me I signed a waiver. I took my little guy immediately to vet. He needed 6 stitches!! He was in so much pain. He had trouble eating and was getting sick. On top of that he had to be completely shaved in the winter. He had to wear onesies all winter was he was completely shaved and it was too cold for him especially since he's only 8lbs I called Canine to Five to give them the vet bill they offered me a credit! I refused. The credit would've meant 3 more visits. I explained that I would never bring my dog back there. I would never allow them to cut him (on his body) or his hair again. And I expected to have the full cost of vet bill paid. The manager called the next day and sent me a check. I will never take my dog there and you shouldn't either!! Beware read more

I absolutely love Kato's Haircut. I've been bringing him to Canine to Five for some years now. For most He always looks this way if he's not too matted and has to get most of his hair off. He surely beat the pandemic. He went looking rough but came out looking fabulous. Thanks Canine to Five read more

Everyone here is amazing! They take very good care of my dogs. The facility is very clean and inviting

The doggy day care is AWESOME. They have late days for people who works outside of 9 to 5 jobs and also if you have an emergency they are willing to help. Please note -- before your dog can stay the night; they most be cleared with paperwork and see how they socialize with other dogs. I just recently came from their Sunday's doggies play-date which was awesome. My puppies and I stayed from 1pm to 3pm at the low cost of $7. I highly recommend especially if you are trying to get your dog socialize. (Believe me -- it does take alot of work) read more

As a dog trainer who does a lot of consulting for various daycares across the country, this is by far the best daycare I've ever been to. The owner cares so much about quality and safety and actually pays for regular, ongoing consulting with a certified behavior consultant to ensure that her staff are the most knowledgeable and skilled handlers in the industry. The staff there is just a joy and they are always so warm, positive, and friendly. I really trust that every dog there is in the best of hands, something I don't say about many places. Would recommend to anyone. read more

I took my best friend dog there and the customer service was excellent they also did a good job on the dog fur

This is an updated review. First the dogs never bit anyone - so I don't appreciate you publicly sharing that narrative. Secondly if we don't trust K9 to 5 to groom our dogs why would we go to someone that you all suggest? That is as insulting and asinine as your trite response. It's only a matter of time until your operation gets shut down for harm to animals. read more

I had heard only good things and knew Canine to Five was a popular choice, so I felt confident sending my dog to daycare/evaluation, and then to a one night boarding stay the following weekend. I attempted to speak with the facility manager today and didn't hear anything back, so I'll give my feedback here. The concierge, Kaitlyn, followed up the day after my dog's first day, which I really appreciated. I had called to ask if he could be moved to the low energy "serenity room" several hours after the employees at drop-off told me that low energy dogs who appeared anxious would be accommodated. He was moved, but only after my second request after checking the webcam. I thought this need was understood when I spoke with the concierge and said that my dog needed to be in the more calm environment; she reassured me that it was noted, and scheduled a one-night boarding for the weekend. I was told after boarding pickup that the dogs are not separated into high/low energy groups on the weekends. Had I been made aware, I wouldn't have sent him. The first night of boarding, I received a text asking me to call the facility for a non-emergency issue (dog was licking a sore). I received the message shortly after hours on a Saturday, called twice, left two voicemails, and didn't hear from anyone until the morning. There is no way to contact the facility directly outside of voicemail after hours, which is concerning in the case of an emergency. The morning of pickup, I got a call saying that my dog was extremely distressed and that the supervisor was about to take him to the vet, which I declined because my partner was en route to pick him up. Upon arrival, my dog was hyperventilating, staff said he hadn't been given his anxiety medication, and he was crusted in his own dried urine. He was clearly laying in it in his kennel for some time, so either the dogs aren't checked on periodically, or they are and the issue was ignored. My dog came home with most of his body stained yellow and crusty with excrement. This is absolutely neglectful, and borderline abusive. Staff was prepared to send my dog to an expensive emergency vet but weren't prepared to give him the medicine that was noted at check-in, or to wipe the poor guy off when he got dirty. read more

Took my dogs here for 4 days. 400$ later they came back dirty, one was limping and the other was coughing. We paid for the service that includes brushing, but both our dogs smelled of urine and were incredibly matted. We understand if they've been playing they'd be dirty, but we paid to have them brushed and it was obvious they weren't. The people seemed sorry and the workers seemed to like the dogs, but we've never had our dogs come back in such terrible condition and they've been dog boarding places in MN, A, CT, CA, and FL (we move a lot). This place was by far the most expensive with the worst experience. If you go here, expect your dogs to come back in a poorer condition. read more

My husband and I have been sending our dog to Canine to Five for several months now - she participates in the puppy program - and it has been wonderful! She loves it, we can go to work with the knowledge that she is well cared for and happy, and the price is reasonable! We love that we can book nail trims or baths for her if needed, and we can pay for her to have a kong on occasion. I'd definitely recommend anyone to use Canine to Five services! read more

again. **UPDATE: So guys now my dogs tail looks like this.... I spoke with the owner Liz about the situation who pointed the finger at our vet, which wasn't the root of the problem. She so graciously gave us our reimbursement for grooming, but said she couldn't pay for the $1200 vet bill. Do you think she will reimburse the three inches of tail my dog has to get surgically removed? Business owners that care about their clients and dogs would have paid for the vet bill in full, but this owner decided to try and build a case as to why it wasn't their fault. If you care about your dog in any way shape or form, don't take them here. If you're out there Liz I still wouldn't mind that $1200. Cheers! read more

We love Groomer Lauren. We have two golden retrievers, an eight-year-old adult, and an 11-month-old puppy. Needless to say, the grooming experience is not the same. Lauren has been so patient with our puppy, who is just learning how to behave at the groomers, and she does a fabulous job on our older dog, who is so stoic about the whole experience. The grooming is always very well done, and is usually completed before the estimated time. read more

I really love Canine to Five. I have been taking all my foster dogs, and now my foster fail pup, to the Detroit location for a couple years now.

I also especially love that you can check in on your pet via live webcams, and they post daily pictures of the dogs enjoying themselves. The staff is wonderful too. read more
