Did a good service with my dog. Very professional. Then the groomer whipped out the Ipad. Wanting a tip. Caught me by surprise. I didnt give them a tip. However, If It happened again, I would give the woman a decent tip Like $20 on $80. read more

1st day of grooming in Carson City, and we are soooo very happy! My Miniature Schnauzers needed a trim, and we needed to find a groomer that would take as good care with them as their regular groomer in Elko... and the crew at Dirty Dog more than met our hopes. I explained what I wanted (which isn't a typical Schnauzer cut) and asked for some fine tuning (like de-hairing ears and grinding rough nail edges) and got more than I asked for. Not only were they brushed and fluffed and smelled good, they were also shiny and prancing as though they knew how good they were looking. Such guys. Along with tender loving care, the dogs were treated carefully and with respect and left nearly as happy as I was. HIGHLY recommend these women, and we'll be back often during our 'tour of duty' in Carson City. read more

I really tried to like Dirty Dog Grooming. We recently moved to Lake Tahoe and still in search of a groomer in the area. Teresa the owner groomed our dog on our first visit and I was quite pleased... 6 weeks later we saw another groomer and it wasn't good. Our little poodle had a flat top that took over a month to grow out. I didn't realize how bad it was until we got home. I called the next day and Teresa asked me to bring her back to fix her up. It was a nice gesture but we live 40 minutes away. She did her best to round up her head and even out her legs. It was better but was not a good cut. I ended up taking her to Sacramento to her usual groomer 2 weeks later. I will say, if you're able to book with Teresa, you will probably be pleased. The ladies there are quite friendly and accommodating with appointments. read more

See all

I'm soooo happy to have found Dirty Dog Grooming! Denise did a great job on my Chinese crested powder puff. The staff was very helpful in answering my questions. Bonus - Dirty Dog Grooming was professional, helpful and timely, I also thought the price was reasonable. I gave them a dirty dog in serious need of a bath, nail trim and a haircut. They gave me back my pup with the haircut I requested, beautifully groomed and happy to have her summer cut. I highly recommend Dirty Dog Grooming! read more

The staff was really nice. And my puppy loves it it there. Thank you Tere and the groomers for making my beautiful puppy look gorgeous.

DO NOT TAKE YOUR DOG HERE!!!! I have never had such a awful experience at any salon as I did this one. I brought my Maltese in for the first time to be groomed. When I arrived the the lady was in the back and said she was washing a dog so i waited. when she was done she walked the very large dog out and fought with it to get it into the kennel. She hit the dog on its butt and yelled at it and said stupid dog i can't fight with you. Eventually she got the dog in, and then came up to the counter and said hi I'm tere the owner I'm sorry about that he is just dumb. I told her that I felt that was very unprofessional to both do and say overall and that I apologize but I could not have my dog groomed there especially after seeing her smack the dog. She replied well whatever I have the right to refuse service to anyone so you can leave my shop. I politely said have a good day and walked out. I could hear her through the door say fuck that bitch. VERY UNPLEASANT PERSON read more

Took my 6 month golden doodle here for the first time. They refused to trim her hair because she wasn't "behaving." This wasn't the first time my puppy got trimmed and did not getting any complaints from previous groomers. Charged us $50 for a wash that I could've done myself. Was terrified when we picked her up and has been laying in her bed all day. Will not go back. read more

What a lucky find, just 30 minutes from Incline Village. My two mutts always come out looking stellar... and the last time, their hair (not fur) had a certain "zzush" that was so cute! And not sure how they do it, but the bows ALWAYS stay in for at least a week! Finally, the price is quite reasonable. read more

Teresa, the owner, went above and beyond to help my Bernedoodle and Australian Labradoodle. She cleaned and removed the clogged hair in their ear canals (neglect from a Reno dog groomer) and made both of them smile with tremendous relief! Teresa also groomed my Bernedoodle beautifully. She has earned a customer for life! read more

My girls always look an feel beautiful after Tere and crew do their magic! I highly recommend!

The owner tere is unprofessional..we tried to like her but after serval bad experiences, we will never be back .. she has been rude, tossed our dog across the counter at us. We have heard her cuss and yell at another employee and say" get the dogs clean or get the fuck out"; one time she was in the back and the young blonde was working on a pup, she told us tere would be right with us.. she calmly told tere we were there. Tere said " fuck I don't have time for this shit I'm busy". Then yelled at the blonde " answer the fucking phone, because it was ringing. When tere came up she was very rude she said ," what are you paying with" we said card" she got into her personal phone, then it rang, she stopped mid transaction to pick it up and continued to talk for 15 minutes, leaving is just standing there in the lobby, the young blonde apologized which none of which happeved was her fault. Tere the owner is disrespectful and rude. I feel sorry for the girls who work there and the pets.. read more

New to the area. First time there, I was impressed, my dogs looked great. Second time, different groomer, poorly groomed. Gave them a third shot and stated my complaints. Groomer did not listen. Poorly groomed, uneven, missed on side of face and ears by over two inches. Will not be back and can not recommend due to lack of quality or respect of the owners requests. read more

Excuse me, Theresa is it? I see you are the owner, and you are the one I watched so its not slander! I know what I saw and heard. Don't try to cover your ass to make yourself look good. You were rude and you hit that dog, yelled at someone in the back and the little boy that was in there. This happened 2 weeks ago. I waited to write a review, I was not going to but my conscience was eating at me, after talking with several people, it was then decided that it was best to speak up. That poor dog did not deserve your anger and to be hit and hurt, and the poor little boy you made cry. You were rude to me and all I wanted was my dogs nails trimmed. After seeing how my dog acted towards you I choose not have the service done. I left and heard you speak about Me in a nasty way and call me names.. you should pay attention to the things you say and do around people and with a window open to which both customers can see into and hear ways going on. You are a narcissist and I feel bad for those who work in your shop. You clearly are lying to save your reputation, in which any one would In your position but you can't speak the truth because if you did, it would ruin your business. However the truth will always be there and your lies will catch up with you. You are abusive to animals. End of story.. read more

I found this place on Yelp after having to switch groomers due to moving. We had a couple of disappointing places so when I found Dirty Dog Grooming I was trying not to get my hopes up. When I first called to make an appointment, the person on the the phone was friendly and professional. When I brought my dog in, Christine, the groomer, made sure to ask about the kind of cut we wanted. Much to my surprise, Christine called just an hour and 20 minutes after dropping my dog off! I've never had such fast service. We loved our dog's cut and he smelled great and was happy when we picked him up. We will definitely continue to use Dirty Dog Grooming! read more

These ladies here at dirty dog grooming were great. My dog was happy and her haircut was just what I asked for. Cute little place. I'm glad I checked out this business. It was a nice find for my dog penny after having bad luck with groomers in the area. Highly recommend this place! read more

No, not here. They don't express glands nor clip nails. They do a terrible job and are not very personable. First time took over 2 hours, the next time only an hour and a half and my dog had some strange injuries to her paw, and a burn mark on her neck. The metal round ring that held her name tag was all bent and poking into her neck when we got her back from them. It must have been bent by someone pulling her collar, while it was on her, really hard. Tried to call to talk to them about it, no return call back. So now, in addition to paying $30 plus $5 tip, I have to find a place to express her glands and clip her nails at an additional cost. As a senior living on a fixed income it will be a scrape to come up with extra $ for that! I don't think they care about dogs, only business. Buyer Beware!!!!!!!! read more

They always do such an amazing job on my dogs. One is a little crazy with his feet and they do a great job with him! I love how 1 times every 6 weeks they're open on Saturday by appointment only!! It's so amazing. I will forever go to them! read more

New to town and was looking for a reputable groomer. This place had a couple of good reviews, so we tried it. My husband came back 30 minutes before time to pick up our dog. The groomer had our Shih Tzu by his lower jaw while he cried and struggled to get away. Apparently, he was scared of the clippers near his face (not uncommon). My husband had to yell at this person to get her to stop. He then suggested scissors rather than industrial clippers. She did get scissors and then, our dog allowed her to trim his face with no problem. They put dogs in cages and put industrial blowers on them. This kills dogs every year and is scary for them. If you only care how your dog looks, you might be happy with this service. If you care at all about your dog's wellbeing, avoid this place like the plague. read more

I tried Kelli at Dirty Dog a couple of times. My dog has never been afraid of anyone, but when I brought her in for a follow up she started shaking. I was surprised but dogs can get nervous, so I let Kelli groom her. When I picked her up I knew I had made a mistake I ended up at the vets it was almost like she got almost drowned & was trying to get something out of her throat. Not ever going back to that place :-( read more

We love Dirty Dog! Our Shih Tzu and Doxie always come out looking their very best. We have been coming here since they opened up and won't trust anyone else. read more

Kristina did a PHENOMENAL job with my pup. After having a horrible experience at another grooming place in town, I was a bit nervous about taking her in but all my fears were gone as soon as we stepped foot in this place. Kristina was kind and attentive with my nervous dog. When I picked her up, my dog looked SO much better. Kristina even tried to fix the botched haircut the other place had done. My dog looked and smelled fabulous. We will definitely be coming back here! read more

Friendly, clean, and they did a nice job grooming my Portuguese Water Dog. The appointment wasn't rushed and my dog is very clean and happy. I knocked off one star because my boy looks like he has poodle ears. I did tell them not to touch the ears however I meant cleaning wise. I'll have to be more specific next time. I will come back again and would recommend this place to anyone. They are professional and easy going which is what I like in a dog groomer. read more

I dropped of Elvis and Priscilla today for a haircut. They came back clean and looking incredible!!!! Very happy :-)

We just moved to Incline Village, NV from San Diego, CA with our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Because of the heat and forest'ness in Lake Tahoe, he needed a grooming and a summer trim pretty badly. We did a bunch of research and came across Dirty Dog. And we are SO HAPPY we did. The girls here easily understood what we wanted and did it perfectly. A+ communication and some of the nicest people I've ever met. Plus our little guy was done in an hour and for half what we would pay in San Diego. And he got a bandanna! Dirty Dog has a new loyal customer! read more

The groomers here are amazing!! They inform you on what they are doing and for a good price! My pup is not usually excited to go to the groomer but that all changed when we started going here!! She's happy to go and even happier when she comes home! Thank you dirty dog!! read more

Dirty Dog Dog Grooming is the only groomer I would trust to gussy up my little Lexis Paris. Janae does a perfect groom every time. She pays attention to what I request and really cares about what she does (and she is a sweetheart) My fur baby doesn't really like anyone, but she loves Janae. read more

I brought my lab to Kelli after having had a bad experience with Crazy Cat grooming. Kelli was as appalled as I was at the condition of my boy's coat and the wound that had been inflicted on his back from the previous groomer. When I picked up my boy he looked amazing. His coat was soft and shiny and he had very little shed. Kelli said he may shed a little the next day but there was hardly any shed at all. Highly recommend them to groom your baby if you want an awesome experience for your baby and you. read more

First time here with my 8.5 year old golden retriever and they did a great job! It was her first time to a groomer (I used to do it at home). The cut was awesome, they were right on time, gave me a range on the price but charged me the lowest rate and she smells great and feels so soft. I'm already referring everyone I know. read more

Well the name fits the business. As I took a dirty dog to them and left with a dirty, soapy dog. His white face was still slightly dirty and his coat still had some dirty spots. I felt His coat where he still had dirt on him and it felt grimy as if he still had soap in his coat. She didn't groom underneath him. I got tons of hair out of his belly and legs because he wasn't properly brushed out. Which you can't, when you have not been rinsed properly. His tail was also not brushed out. I paid $45 to basically re groom him myself. Which is fine but I went there to avoid grooming him. I walked in to pick both boys up and was about to schedule my other dogs but then saw him and that's the first and last time I'll do that. These were show dogs and I do groom myself but don't have the time. I do know what a properly groomed dog looks like. The kids down the street could have done a better job in the backyard with a garden hose. My other boy was done by the other gal. While he still had tuffs of hair obviously not brushed out, he was completely free of soap, which I would expect and he looked pretty good compared to the other one. He was clean and fairly groomed. We said don't clip the nails on the one boy as he has a nail issue due to age. That's fine and they didn't but they also didn't clip the other dogs nails. If one dog comes back still dirty and soapy I can't expect much when you can't even rinse properly. Your better off buying $45 in supplies at the pet store and doing it yourself. Great experiences at crazy cat dog grooming down the road. My other dog was scheduled there the next day and every shedding ounce of hair was taken out of her coat. She was as white as a diamond and even two days later I can't see a speck of dirt nor get any hair out of her. My boys, I got a plastic bag full of hair that wasn't taken out. These are Siberian huskies. Crazy cat dog grooming, oh yeah, they did fabulous. Even her undercarriage was groomed and cleaned. Of course the 1 year old child running around clinging to the one groomer following her around screaming may have distracted her. I love kids and that's great he can come to work, but don't charge me $45 when you can't even do the simple part of your job, like wash and rinse. read more

Took my maltese there three times. Told them I wanted a puppy cut which is the standard short cut for a maltese. She came out looking like a poodle. The second time I took a picture. They did a fine job. The third time I took her in in January (no picture, I thought they knew what I wanted by then) they shaved her and I mean down to the skin. She spent January and February shivering and uncomfortable. I talked with the owner and believed we had straightened it out. Decided I would just bring a picture every time. Called to make an appointment, left a message, no response. Called the next day, left a message, still no response. Guess they don't need my business, but professional courtesy would be nice. read more

Just picked my my Lhasa mix from Dirty Dog, and I'm so impressed with their work. I took him in for a summer cut...and a MASSIVE cleanup. He's started shedding his thicker undercoat from the winter and developing bad mats and tangles. I've been trying to stay on top of them with at-home conditioning and brushing, but he made things worse by rolling in something sticky and I couldn't detangle the mess he made of his coat. I brought him to Dirty Dog anticipating that I'd be paying extra for the time and work needed to clean him up. At first glance, I was told it'd likely be a 3-hour appointment. Imagine my surprise when I was called to pick him up less than two hours later! My dog looked great -- silky smooth coat, no more tangles, tear stains gone! And I wasn't charged a cent more than the first time I'd brought him to Dirty Dog for a much less intensive groom. I'd recommend Dirty Dog to anyone! read more
