Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. We have been coming for years and always have a great experience.

This place is horrible. They always made me feel like I wasn't caring for my dog enough. My last time here, they sedated my dog and didn't tell me before or after. My dog came how and could barely walk straight. read more

I can't say enough good things about this spot! We take our 4 year old Australian Shepherd for a brush and bath and he looks like a model every time he leaves. With an aussie I was nervous about cutting his hair and the brush and bath is perfect to help mitigate his shedding. The employees are always so kind and super responsive! Easy to schedule with etc. read more

Dog In Suds - Pet Groomers Near Me - Encinitas, California

Dog In Suds has been our go-to groomer for many years. The staff are friendly and groomers are super efficient. They were one of the few groomers willing to groom our Tibetan Mastiff, Bleu. Their love for dogs is overtly apparent in their work. Oh, I love the fact that I can drop-in without appointment for nail trims and "gland extraction". Thanks again, Team D&S. read more

My dog Charlie got a really nice haircut and I'm very pleased. They cut him exactly how I asked them to do it

We have been using this groomer for years now. We have consistently had a good experience with them. Price is fair, the service is good and they really know what they are doing. Our doggy isn't a fan of baths or grooming and they work with her to make it the best it can be. She had a nail issue and they took care of it so well last time we came in. Thank you! read more

I'm so impressed by Dogs In Suds! I have a 90+ lb Pyrenees mix who can be a handful. They were so patient with him and had no trouble grooming and doing his nails. I was most surprised by how quiet it was when I picked him up. No yapping and barking and was a very low stress environment. I highly recommend! read more

DO NOT TAKE YOUR DOG HERE!!! I used to love this place both of my dogs have been getting groomed here their whole lives. Recently they cut my yorkies eye and did not even have the decency mention it to me. Her eye was swollen shut and after taking her to the vet and them taking an extensive look at her eye did they see a cut on her pupil that was now infected. Rounds of antibiotics and many vet trips later my poor sweet dog is now traumatized and in so much pain. My tiny dog could have gone blind from their negligence and carelessness. It is very disappointing to see how much this place has gone down hill. Tiara will never return to this groomer. IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR DOG - DO NOT GO TO DOGS AND SUDS read more

My rough collie and I absolutely love Dog In Suds! The business was highly recommended by a friend, and I have to say she was absolutely right. The staff is caring and friendly, the prices are good, and my girl feels and smells so nice when her spa day is over...no heavy perfumes, but clean and fresh. I can't recommend them highly enough. read more

Been taking my pup for washes here for years! Renee & and the entire team genuinely care about all their fur clients treating them with so much love! My dog comes home clean and happy every time. It's a shame when certain people (bad reviewers) are having a bad day of their own and take it out on these hard-working small businesses. read more

got our girl Sadie's nails trimmed here. She is a somewhat unpredictable Cattle Dog, and is older. I was concerned she might be "difficult" but the experience was the MOST low stress ever! The lovely woman took her back with a treat and returned her a few minutes later with a wagging tail! This is our spot from now on & not too expensive either! read more

Always so pleasant and kind. Grooming was top notch. 10/10. I have been coming here for years. Always the same super kind service.

Started taking our maltese in to be groomed when we moved back to CA. Was happy to find a family run establishment that honestly treated every pet like it was there own. I knew I could trust them to be kind and gentle with our little girl as she developed health issues as she aged. They always offered great customer service and good advice when asked. Was glad they chose to keep the business in the family and have now past down the management to Renee. Renee is caring, passionate and incredibly selfless. Outside of managing the business she donates much of her time to Amazing Strays to find foster and for ever homes for so many pets. I highly recommend D n Suds! Jody W., Carlsbad read more

Took my Springer Spaniel her for 10+ years. Always came home looking perfect. Nice knowledgable friendly staff.

DO NOT TAKE YOUR PETS HERE!!! I dropped my dog off at 12(noon) and was told to pick him up at 4pm. They usually take about 3 hours to groom my dog. They called 1 1/2 hours after I dropped him off to let me know he was done, and that his right eye was swollen. I was shocked to hear this because he was fine before I dropped him off. The whole morning he had been playing and seemed very happy. When my husband went to pick him up, he was told they called me before they started, to let me know they noticed something wrong, but I never got a call from them. Both my phone log and theirs confirmed only one call was made AFTER the grooming was complete. My husband rushed him to the vet. He was shaking and very frightened. That night he was very lethargic, obviously in pain. Now, days later, is eye is still swollen, and not fully back to normal. Now the owner refuses to pay for the vet bill! DO NOT TAKE YOUR PETS HERE!!! See for yourself in the pictures I have attached. read more

I've been going to Dogs In Suds for over 25 years, they are the best. I've taken three of my dogs there, they picked up a melanoma, and probably gave me an extra two years with one of my dogs. Not only do they do excellent work, but they are very observant to health issues. My current dog that was just in there a week ago has an enlarged heart and other health issues. She's around 14 and I'm very concerned about leaving her with anyone. Renee and Dogs In Suds are the only place I would ever take her. The first dog I took there had been badly abused, and I was very concerned about taking her any place for a grooming. I asked for recommendations from friends of mine, and they said Dogs In Suds was the place to go. When I picked her up, I could tell immediately that she was very calm and comfortable and had been well taken care of. Every one of my dogs are relaxed when I pick them up and I can tell that they have been well taken care of while they were there. I can't say enough good things about Renee and Dogs In Suds. I would give them 10 stars if I could. read more

I took Hudson for his first grooming to Dog In Suds today. He is two and his hair loves to knot up! They were so very amazing, thorough and gentle.

Staff 100% & quality 110%!!! Highly recommend! 10 Stars!!! read more

Took my puppy here for the first time after my neighbor recommended them and couldn't be happier. My puppy went in all matted and with long unruly doodle hair and came out well cut and bathed. They took great care of my dog and she seemed very happy at pickup. Highly suggest taking your pet to this groomer! I will be back. read more

Disappointed to say the least. I hardly give anyone one star but this spot fully deserves it. From the moment I dropped my poodle mix off I told the groomer to specifically not shave him - especially that cute face of his or the adorable poodle poof! However, they waited to show me him until after charging me full price. They shaved every last bit of him - even that signature poof! The worst part about this whole experience? The staff did not even seem to care and were completely uninterested in what I had to say about his new shave. I understand that sheepadoodle's can have knots in their fur, but upon dropping him off I went over his whole body with the groomer who had told me that it should not be a problem. The only conclusion I can come up with is that this is a lazy staff who does not really care about customer service or doing a proper job. My dog is miserable, his fur is gone, and we will never return to this awful establishment. read more

We took our Miniature Schnauzer there for the first time. Nancy did an amazing cut on her. The employees were professional and friendly. We definitely have a new groomer! Thank you Dog in Suds! read more

I have had my toy poodle done her a couple of times because I couldn't find appts anywhere. I was sooooooooooooo disappointed. They do not know how to groom poodles. I would never go back to them again. I got the feeling they were only interested in the money they make and not anything that has to do with people who expect the kind of grooming a certain breed needs. I am also concerned that their groomers have no education to groom. VERY DISAPPOINTED. read more

Took our 70 pound goldendoodle in for the first time on a recommendation of a friend. Nancy, our groomer did a phenomenal job. Got rid of all our girls matted fur, trimmed the fur between her paw pads, trimmed her butt, trimmed her nails, and gave her a bath, all in under 4 hours. Great service and we'll definitely be back! read more

I have been bringing my dogs to dog and suds for the passed 17 years. Best place to get your fur babies groomed. Fair prices and always pleasant and accommodating. I highly recommend them they will not disappoint. read more

I am not sure what is happening with my dog. Ever since she came back from her grooming she has been shaking, and not herself. She had a VERY long pee after coming home, and many after. She even peed in the house which has NEVER happened. I am hoping it is not related with this visit, but it is the only factor in the day that was different. read more

I just adopted a dog this week, and decided that she could use a bath and haircut (my little Beans was about 75% fur and 25% body), so I took her to this place as it's close to my work. It's a bit pricey (all-together it was $58 for my Shih-Tzu) but they did do a really great job. She looked absolutely beautiful when I picked her up! I was pretty specific regarding her cut (the hair on her face needed to be trimmed so it didn't cover her eyes, and the hair on her butt needed a serious cut as well). They definitely listened to me, and Beans came out beautiful. My only complaint is that they did nick her face in one spot that was a bit close to her eye for comfort. I understand that it's definitely not easy to groom a dog that is anxious (my Beans is seriously resistant to grooming), but I would have preferred that she come back without cuts. Still though, she was friendly and happy as ever when I picked her up, despite the cut. I think I'll be giving them another chance, and hopefully Beans will be better behaved next time around. read more
