Text I received the following morning after I booked an appointment online. Very disappointed.
Zoey P.

UPDATE!!! Highly disappointed. It took a couple of months to find a groomer I trusted. My pup had been going to the same person since he was a puppy. I looked Studio Pampered Pets Yelp and I saw a pic of two Shihtzus that evidently had been groomed safely after being matted from neglect. It was a sign that these would be my pup's new groomers. My Shihtzu hates being groomed so he always gets a calm dose by his vet prior to his appointments to reduce anxiety. His fur is no where close to being matted 4 inches like the Yelp review of the Shihtzus. I made account on their website and booked my appointment. Next morning I get a text asking for my pup's details. I was transparent about my pup's special needs, since their website really emphasizes the professionalism, safety, comfort, and "peace of mind" that they provide. I felt very confident in their services and I even thought I would check out their daycare services and get my pup enrolled at some point. I get a response telling me my dog wouldn't be groomed. I asked if it was a scheduling issue or if it was behavioral because I would not have minded a wait. I never got a response. First of all, I think this is rude. I would have been happy to take him elsewhere to get groomed until he "met their criteria" if that was the case or if it was a scheduling issue. Kind of broke my heart. I have a groomers and a doggy daycare walking distance from me but I had decided to drive out 20 minutes for a good groomer that made me feel safe. I even took the day off because I wanted to be sure I was ready to pick him up as soon as they finished. I will never attempt to book a grooming appointment or enroll my pup in daycare here because to my knowledge, my pup is not welcome here. I am taking any recommendations for groomers that are professional and will accept pets even if they're fussy or have gone a month or so without being groomed! I'm glad to see I have finally gotten a response from the staff at Studio Pampered Pets. As I started to read the review, I was excited thinking that there was a possibility that I might be able to set my pup up in the future when staffing wasn't an issue. Then I got to the end of the response where I was called out for leaving a 1 star review simply because my dog didn't get seen and they "didn't deserve" that review. Unfortunately, I only had 2 texts and no response to base my reviews off of. Skills are great but customer service is really important. I would have been thrilled to leave my info so that I could get updates on staffing in the future. I noticed most negative reviews here are about customer service and how they handle turn-downs. I should have listened to those reviews about customer service and not just those reviews from existing, happy customers that actually had the opportunity to review their skills and not just their customer service.

Before with all the fluff.

5 stars all around. When I moved from my Plano groomer, it had become too far and out of the way. I was recommended this studio by a client of mine who has two babies of her own with similar hair types. SPP did not disappoint. I like to stay away from chain groomers since they didn't do a complete shave on my baby as requested but only her paws and cute face. I'm like, "Why she still fluffy though??" This is the studio which I recommend all my clients and friends to, too! I'm wish I left a review sooner! Michael is super friendly and him and his staff know exactly what they're doing. He always has recommendations about my little gremlins, since one of them usually gets matted. Overall I'm always satisfied and will continue to be their client. After reading some of the reviews, I'd like to voice if someone has an "off service" - it happens. To me it doesn't define their work for the pass number of years. They have always been kind and my gremlins are trusted in their hands. At one point I even wanted one of their tails to be shaven down after checking out and they didn't have an issue and was more than happy to do it! Price is fair. Studio is a little hidden! Also, be patient when booking an appointment, they're running a studio themselves so I understand it's hard to pick up the phone or be right with you at the moment. They will always return your call without failure and be with you when they can!! Drop off is a breeze, too!

Yorkie/morkie haircut
Karla S.

I had a 10/10 experience getting my morkie groomed with Laura at SPP. I brought photos of what I wanted (puppy cut, round teddy bear face, ears trimmed short, tail long enough to wag), and got exactly what I wanted -- a perfect haircut. Actually, it was only 95% perfect when I came to pick up. They brought him out and asked if everything was okay. I said that his moustache was just a bit too long at the corners (I wanted more rounded), and Laura immediately took him back and reshaped those corners. The way she understood my request and immediately made the change made me really happy. His haircut was $50 (reasonable) and I paid $5 extra to have his nails filed (very reasonable). My dog is stressed out by new places, unfamiliar people, strange dogs... but he was much calmer and happier than usual after this haircut. Studio Pampered Pets is a little bit hard to spot. It's in the same strip as the 7-11. If you're driving southbound on Marsh, you have to turn left onto Spring Valley, and immediately turn left (across oncoming traffic) into the gas station parking lot. They take credit cards, and you can book an appointment through their website: studiopamperedpets.myonlineappointment com/Booking

It's interesting that a portion of poor reviews surround the way they deny service. My review is no different, except that I'm an actual client, or at least I was. My fur baby has been groomed by them a few times. It likely would've been more, if not for the pandemic. All of my former experiences were good, no complaints. I've also never received complaints about my fur baby from Mike or Laura. I recently called and left a voicemail about scheduling but because I couldn't actually speak with someone, I just decided to schedule online. The appointment went through on their website, confirming that they indeed had open availability on the day and time I selected. The next day they canceled my appointment and sent a text message stating that they won't schedule established clients that are not already booked for recurring appointments. They also mentioned having staffing issues. This review isn't written in rage or written because I am angry with them. As I mentioned, my former experiences were good. It's more so disappointment that my fur baby was rejected as an established client due to their implied disapproval of his ability to be booked, based on their definition of "a reoccurring basis". In the text sent, there was no description about the frequency of what they consider reoccurring nor was I given the opportunity as an established client to allow my fur baby a position on the reoccurring schedule. Even still, since they were letting us go as clients indefinitely, I responded politely and simply asked if they had any recommendations of trusted groomers in the area. They did not respond. I tried again the next day. Still nothing. There has been no response to my reasonable inquiry. And while one may say it's not their job to give recommendations, good customer service would not ignore a client that would have been willing to wait. Even a simple, "unfortunately we don't have any recommendations" would've sufficed. The rating I'm assigning is reflective of the aforementioned experience combined with disappointment that based on recent reviews here on Yelp, they've accepted new clients. This indicates that their staffing issues aren't as much of a concern as they implied, especially as it relates to rejecting an established client. Based on this, I can only insinuate that they rejected my fur baby because he does not yield them the amount of money they want based on their undisclosed frequency requirements. While good customer service includes stellar treatment to the pet, it's imperative to remember that the pet's parent deserves them same. So, I've since found and scheduled my fur baby with Erika Ashley's Elite Dog Grooming!

I have a 7 month old Shih-poo that hates going to the groomer despite going every month since we has 3-4 months. I took him to Studio Pampered Pets after not being satisfied with my previous groomers cut, and seeing the raving reviews Studio Pampered Pets has. Let me tell you, they did not disappoint. My Kru has the best cut he has ever received, the price was great, and this is the first time he's gone to the groomer without crying, or barking when we entered. They also informed that that he was well behaved but needed someone to be patient with him which is a lot better than the previous feedback I've received from the previous groomer.

Clean

Mike the owner is a straight forward, hard working, and detailed dude. Enough said, I'll be back... Chowder my lab is soft n silky, smelling good, and not shedding. Did a great job on his nails too all for an affordable price Thank you - S.P.P. Michael and Chowder

2 Shitz TSU's freshly groomed after being neglected and totally safely removed  4 inches of matting. Mike is awesome !
Karen K.

Mike is the owner and the main grimmer but both are excellent. First of all - MIKE LOVE Fogs!! He personally pays attention to each one and every detail. Our 3 dogs LOVE HIM and go right in the front door. They are shelties and need a lot of grooming. He uses the best of skin care and cutting and filing nails and outstanding grooming . Mike also personally help me with 2 Shitz Zus I found. They we totally matted to the skin and Mike carefully shaved each one and made them perfect little girls again so so happy! Excellent grooming and my dog won't let me go near him with a brush - BUT Mike talks to him and my dog completely lets Mike brush and style him

Kevin K.

Michael and his team are absolutely amazing! They do fantastic work and fairly priced. We just "tried" using them the 1st time about 7 years ago and have been regular customers since. Very highly recommend these folks!

Studio Pampered pets groomed my dogs the day I hired a professional photographer to take pictures.
Nick Z.

These guys do a phenomenal job with my dogs. They bathed and brushed the teeth for my 3 little min pins for the day I hired a professional photographer. They made all 3 dogs look like superstars. 3 months after the pictures taken Flint had uncontrollable seizures and we had to put him down. I'm so glad that Studio Pampered Pets were able to contribute to making my 3 little buddies look flawless and photogenic. They helped make the pictures perfect so my doggies will be seen in their pictures as immortal. I use the pictures of them everyday. Michael and his team make my dogs feel like VIPs when they visit for their grooming. This is probably the bet place in North Dallas to get your dogs groomed.

Haley- Mini American Eskimo - basic cut
Nas K.

I was tired of getting inconsistent cuts from large, chain groomers with high turnover in their groomers. I found Studio: Pampered Pets on yelp, and its short distance to my apartment. Appointments are convenient, prices are reasonable, and communication is consistent- I got called right when they were done- about 4 hours for 2 dogs- cut and bathed. I took my Haley a couple months ago - she's a mini American Eskimo - and she got a great cut- beautifully trimmed in all the right ways, and is sparkling white. I took Tank, our pom mix and he got trimmed also. I am very happy with the results! The dogs react great to the groomers there also. Usually Haley has to be dragged to the back, but she has happily followed the groomers to the back twice now. Michael mentioned Tank was a bit nervous, but he was still perfectly groomed, nails trimmed, etc. A bit of background on Tank- he growls and gets mad when we try and brush him! You can tell the groomers really care to get the job done. Last, this is the only place in this area that offers dog feather extensions- Puppylocks. Absolutely adorable! Haley will get one of those next time for sure.

As a first time pet owner, I was very skeptical about where to take my precious bunny. She never…read morehad a grooming before but needed one ASAP. After reading reviews, I was hesitant about taking her here. I'm so glad I went with my guts and took her anyways because I didn't know anywhere else. When we got there, I saw customers dropping off their fur babies. I felt more at ease. The owner came out to greet and observed my baby for her grooming service. The owner knew what she was doing. She was very informative and handled my baby with lots of care. I had to leave her there so they could do the whole grooming service which took about 2 hours. The owner called to inform that my baby was ready for pick up. When I walked in, I saw an employee still brushing my fur baby. The way the staffs took care of her was amazing. I could tell they knew what they were doing and had lots of love. My baby was all clean and happy. Thank you so much. I recommend this place. I will definitely come back!

DO NOT BRING YOUR FUR BABY HERE!!!! Just like all the other reviews…read more I boarded my pup here for a week, and something told me to take a video of her when i dropped her off and compare to when i picked her up Ima so glad i did. My pup is 8 months old and full of energy, like all pups are. When i picked her up she was lethargic and her energy was LOW! She wasn't interested in eating or playing games when we got home. She in fact went straight to sleep for 5 hours She smelled like sour poop, (my dog is black fur) she a light white/ cream colored fur all over her back, dried up poop on her rear and her legs, causing me to have to take her to the groomer the next day because she had my house smelling! There were 4-5 cuts on her paws and nose and i did not have her groomed there. F that ! We have boarded at WAGS previous and at pick up she did not want to leave. This was not the case here! The facility is OLD dingy and dirty, and they do not call you and update on your pet, i had to call and check in. I attached a photo on 2 small cuts on one of her paws that looks like it's gotten worse. The saying you get why you pay for was definitely proven here! Just DONT!
