Our dog is super sensitive after having a bad experience cutting his nails at different place but Cody handed him super well and made it look easy! He was super friendly and professional! Good pricing and great service!! Super satisfied overall! I recommend!! Mahalo read more

I notice most positive reviews are several months old. Perhaps things have changed. It was very evident to me that big dogs are not their thing. Even well trained big dogs like ours, it's clear the groomer wasn't a big dog lover and that's ok. So if you have a large dog you may want to go elsewhere. read more

Dog Salon Kahala - Such a good job! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Thank you Cody for your constant patience and time you take with both my babies! We know when we drop them off here, they are given the love and attention one gives as a groomer! We come back every month for basic and full grooming! read more

My poor doggo . . . my son and i constantly clipping and trimming on him - he was looking pretty shaggy and uneven. I knew i needed to take him somewhere to get everything evened up. The reviews here were great, so i gave them a shot. The outcome: my dog looked fabulous! Great communication - i told the groomer that i wanted scissor cut and to even everything up, leaving him 1" length all around. Basically i wanted a puppy cut, because my baby is only 8 months old. Oh, and i told her "no bows on the ears, he's a boy, not a girl" So instead of a bow, we got a feather! LOL very cute but he had that feather off by the time we got home. Oh, and IDK what they use on his fur to make him smell so good, but he still smells fresh, a week later! You get great services here - everything was done perfectly (even brushed his teeth) but its not cheap, so be prepared to drop pretty close to a Benjamin to get it done. read more

Our search for a new groomer began after an unfortunate incident about a year ago at another salon and eventually led us to Dog Salon Kahala. I think they do a pretty good job overall. The staff is always friendly and they seem to enjoy their work. They don't take credit cards and that's a little inconvenient but Ipo always looks pretty sporty after her appointment even though it sometimes takes a couple of tries to get her hair just right. The reason I don't go higher than threes stars with my review is because Ipo doesn't like going to Dog Salon Kahala. I don't know why. She doesn't want to get out of the car when we get there and will try to follow me out if one of the staff isn't carrying her. Ultimately, that's why our search continues. read more

Love to bring my dog here! With COVID, they have different precautions they're taking - masks are being worn and when I get there I just call them to come pick up my dog from the parking lot (Cody is usually working and has always been the man who picks up Meeko from the car). Their main phone is an Apple iPhone so you can text them exact pictures of the haircut you wish to achieve for your fur baby. Meeko is a Pomchi and his haircut takes about 3-3.5 hours for a full service. read more

I was nervous bringing my new Dobie in for a nail trimming. But the tech was awesome. My dog was scared and peed everywhere. I am so thankful for the hand sanitizer and wet wipes I had in my car. I didn't realize my dog could pee so much. I took her potty before we left and she even had a calming treat. But there was SO MUCH PEE. Thank you again to the tech that trimmed us so professionally. I look forward to attempting this again. Maybe a diaper next time too Sorry about all the Pee. read more

Thank you to Cody for giving my dog, Mico, his holiday grooming . I live in the neighborhood so switched to Dog Salon Kahala as I can walk there but it's more than a convenience !

Dog Salon Kahala - Christmas haircut - Pet Groomers Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Wow, the 3rd dog grooming company to take over this place. I hope this one will actually last awhile!! I took my 4 dogs to get groomed there. It's VERY clean, they have NO cages, which I LOVE, and they groom the Japanese way, only scissors, no razors. They are much like DiVentus and the Kahala Supergroomers that were both there before. They are very nice, professional, but the actually grooming or haircut is not as even as the other companies. They treat the dogs very well!! They even take professional pics of them after they're groomed and give it to you which is definitely a plus!! Cash only for now, and they are reasonably priced. They are thorough and they smell so good when they're done!! And they get them SO soft and fluffy!! Definitely the best in that category! Try them out! They're good! read more

They did a really nice job on my shih tzu. I was nervous because this was her first time ever being groomed and her hair was super long with a few mats, but she looks and smells great. Puppy seemed really happy and they took time to talk about the dog before leaving her. I did not see any cages which was nice as well. Took about a week and half to get an appointment and prices on website are outdated. read more

This was my first time coming here to get my dogs' nails trimmed. The groomer did a great job with my pups who tend to get anxious especially if they get nicked. Would definitely come back but recommend calling ahead to make sure you won't have to wait long for a walk-in. read more

Dog Salon Kahala - Marley happy with his pedi! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I love my dog, I really do. But like most people, I don't have time to take my dog to the groomers very often and I often let a few good months slip by before taking my pup in for a much needed haircut. As the owner of a pom-lhasa apso mix, my dog has LOTS of fur, almost teddy bear-like, and so a good haircut is definitely a necessity. I've taken my dog here once before and I remember it being great but I had a little difficulty scheduling so the past few times I ended up just going back to petco. But recently I found this place again and decide to give them another shot and I was definitely not disappointed. They were efficient, paid attention to detail, and prices were very fair for the amount of effort and attention put into each puppy. When I dropped off my pup here, the worker who took him in asked me how I wanted my pup's fur to be cut. I had asked for very specific styles and I had specific ways that I like my pup's arms and legs, tail, and ears to be. Without writing anything down, I was nervous that he would forget what I said and that I would not be satisfied with how it comes out. But when I came back to the salon 2 and a half hours later, I was absolutely DELIGHTED (and I don't use that word very often!) to see my dog. They made my teddy-bear looking puppy look absolutely gorgeous and I might sound like I'm exaggerating, but that's how satisfied I was with this experience. I would definitely recommend Dog Salon Kahala to dog owners for an occasional puppy pamper day, but the only thing to keep in mind is that they are cash only. I didn't realize this until I came to pick up my pup and I ended up having to go across the street to Kahala Mall to go to the ATM. read more

I think we have found the place for our dog to be groomed! Historically, we have taken our dog to a popular groomer in Kaimuki. After hearing constant yelling in there, we decided to try a new place. Dog Salon Kahala was so peaceful and these folks are so nice and calm. When dropping off our dog, they went over the services that we desired and discussed what would happen to our dog. Then she said they would call us in a few hours when they were done. When we picked up our dog, he looked great!! They were spot on with timing and very honest. The lady told me it would take about 2 hours and would be $60. Spot on!! Our dog looks great! The service was remarkable and parking was super easy!!! I didn't have to find street parking or pay for parking like other places in Kaimuki! We will definitely be back soon!! read more

They do a fairly good job of grooming, but checked and for the 100.00 I had expected his ears to be free of hair. Normally I check but didn't and he came back with hair in his ears. read more

This establishment has no resemblance to it's website description of Japanese service/connections. Excuse given is that the Covid has sent workers back to Japan and it really shows in the service received. Poor grooming and poor explanation of why additional charges were included remains. The non- Japanese immigrant groomer only knows the term "tangle" when trying to explain additional charges. I was hoping to get the traditional Japanese scissor cut previously received by my former groomers (shop closed when their lease expired). Not so. Stay away until the covid conditions improve so workers can return. read more

Tucked away in territorial savings plaza, this little shop back in the courtyard was clean and efficient. They took my lil guy as a walk in and did a good job on his nails a anal expression. Cash only. Fair price. Same as vet or Petco. Cody who helped us intituallr took his time letting Diggy get used to him and the other groomer seemed to be as gentle as he could given Diggy major wiggling/resistance. Recommend this nice lil salon read more

Moved to Hawaii 3 months ago and so needed to find a groomer. Cody was top notch - was attentive and interested on the type of cut we wanted and his work exceeded our expectations. Will definitely take Easton back to Kahala dog grooming- I highly recommend Cody and Dog Salon Kahala! read more

Really great service. I was using Petco for my dog's haircut, but I was never very happy with the result. But I love his look after going to this place! Plus, his hair is unbelievably soft (I'm not sure what they did, but his hair has been super soft for almost 2 weeks now! It's great!) read more

I have been here at least 8 times and still Cody acts as if he has never met me or my dog, Charlie, before. I work with customers myself and it means something to actually remember your customers and make them feel welcome, no matter what their problems are. This time Charlie had some issues and I also wasn't as prompt to pick him up as I was before. Normally he takes 3-3 1/2 hours. Because they basically just cut his leg hair so short (he had matting and Cody made it clear they weren't up to the task) they took under 2 hours and Cody called twice. The second time he made it apparent with the tone of his voice that he was irritated. I have been to at least 2 other groomers before and no one has ever made me feel that way. I am very disappointed with their customer service and hope that I won't need to use them again. read more

I just brought my 5 month old corgi here for just a nail trim and all I can say is that my dog and I are very pleased! Kind of hard to look for, they are located inside the Kahala Atrium. They have a little private parking lot, so parking is not a problem. This little doggie salon looks so cute and chic on the outside. You walk in and the front area is quite small but it reminds me of a Japanese boutique. Whaddya know, they have one of their salons in Japan, also! We were greeted right away by one of their loyal customers who was also waiting for their dog. Our dog was super excited and happy and ended up trickling a little but the staff told us not to worry and cleaned it up right away, clearly knowing how puppies can get! The groomer came out (who was clearly from Japan) and our little puppy corgi went to her right away. Right next to the front area is another room with a huge window that you are able to see everything they do. They handled our corgi with care and I could tell she was a happy pup because her tail was wagging the whole time. I was surprised when I heard them filing her nails down after the cut, as other dog salons I've been to, filing is an additional charge! Once she was done, our puppy came running happily to us and her paws felt like, well, paws! No more painful scratch marks for us and I'm sure she was happy her paws were now pretty. Our total came out to $10.47 (tax included), which is very affordable and reasonable. Keep in mind, they don't take cards, it's cash only! My bf, corgi and I all left the salon feeling happy. We are definitely returning. :) read more

Gotta review this place! Ever since I moved to Kahala side, I've been looking for a good place to take my dog to get groomed. I didn't really care for the way the last groomer cut her fur, so I was trying to find somewhere closer and possibly better. Low and behold, we came across this place and it's fantastic! My dog is usually shy towards other people, especially groomers and vets. My mom had taken her in since I was at work, and had requested for her fur not to be cut too short since she has skin problems. Couple hours later, the pup comes back and she's adorable! Her fur wasn't cut too short, and she came back happier than ever (this is extremely rare.) She didn't smell like perfume either, which was beyond fine with me since I don't care for that smell, nor do I care for the weird powder perfumes our previous groomer used. I'm really glad we took her here, and I'm more than certain we'll be taking her back again for her next grooming! On the side, if people are looking for a wonderful place to groom their dog, this place offers a 10% discount for first timers. I don't know who groomed my dog, but if you see this, thank you so much for all of your work! My doggo came home extra happy and that makes me beyond happy .w. read more

I have been coming here for 3-4times. I really liked the service and their kindness till this time. Today, they disappointed me so bad therefore I'm changing my dog salon. I have asked for semi trim+shower/ brushing teeth and they said it will be $60 for semi trim+shower and brushing teeth will be extra $8 which is fine for me (Full service for my dog breed was $65 and I alway get full service and brushing teeth service). I have asked for trimming paws, ears, and penis&butt part but when I picked up my dog, I did not see much different as before. Well I am sure they did their job, I did not want to doubt so it was fine, but I could obviously see my dog's paw was dirty. I was asking them why it is still dirty. They said it is because they use organic shampoo and also said they washed two times. I could not understand because, why would I go dog salon if my dog is still dirty? And they sounded like "we did our job!". They told me they will give me $8 discount. In my mind, I was like "are you serious? I wasted my time and money. You refunding whole payment wont be even enough to cover my disappointment". I explained to them how feel and all the sudden, they tried to make up (giving me full refund) but sorry disappointment is disappointment. You have lost your repeat customer and I will not go back again (I have paid $8 discounted amount which is $60 and left the tip $15 FYI). I just felt like they do not care about their customers and not treating good. Oh right they told me his finger wad bleeding a little because They cut too short. Now at home, I see that my dog still has sand in his eyes. Found another reason I wont go back(I went walking on the beach right before) read more

My sister has been taking my dog to this Salon while I was away in Korea. But when I came back she took me along with her. They are very friendly and they did a nice job of cutting and styling my dog's hair. It usually takes about one hour but it took two hours that day. (Probably because they were booked. It shows how popular they are) Will be bringing my dog here again! read more

Dog salon kahala is amazing! Brought my puppy, Kana in for a bath and haircut with special treatment. We just found out kana has a tear in her ACL, or hurt her back left knee, so I asked that they don't touch or try to bend that leg. They were very understanding and gentle with her. I felt okay leaving her there and getting my nails done to pass the time. I also asked if she would be done before 330 so I could get to work on time and he estimated about 2 to 2.5 hours just so they could be extra careful around her leg. But after an hour of dropping her off I received a call saying she was ready for pick up :) this gave me time to take pictures and relax at home before going off to work :) thank you! Kana came home smelling AMAZING and looking so happy and cute ! The place was incredibly hard to find so I was 20 minutes late... lol just park near assagios and walk towards the park.. And it's in the bank looking building. The bath and haircut came out to $50 but with 10% off only $45! Definitely going to bring my other two dogs here when I get the chance :) read more

This was my second time visiting this salon. Remember to book your appointment well in advance because they fill up fast! There's a lot of parking when you get there and the location was pretty easy to find. They offer a package where nail trimming and anal gland expression is included with the grooming. I liked how they keep records of what was previously done because I'm not super familiar with what kind of cut to ask for. I was very satisfied with how my puppy looked afterwards!! The grooming took about two hours and the price I thought was reasonable. Just remember to bring cash because they don't accept credit cards! read more

Fabulous groomer! We drive from Hawaii Kai to get there...they are wonderful with our little yorkiepoo, Momoko. Can't wait to go back!

I love taking my dog here! The groomers are great, and they're always so nice. They always ask if I'm satisfied with the way that they cut her hair, and if there is something that I don't like, they don't hesitate to fix it. I'm really glad that I found a good dog salon that I trust for my pup. I am never disappointed when I come here. Also, I love love love the cute little handmade barrettes that they put on my dog's leash. So adorable :D read more

First Remember Chico and Poncho are telling you about this. Our mom is a fuss bucket... We are her first dogs ever. We just arrived to Oahu April 2014 and live believe it or not across the street from this place. Mom didn't know and was taking us to Petland in Honolulu spending over a hundred for what she is receiving here for a fraction of the cost. We have anal gland issues and mom cannot stomach it although she tried. Thank god they know how to even do this for a fraction of the cost. They all are more like family. Once Chico had a booboo on his bottom and panicked as we are still new to the island we called Kahala Dog Salon they came from home and met us at the salon and informed us this is an emergency not just an anal issue and told us to seek urgent care and we of course rushed out and did. They are not your average dog grommets by any means. They even have a special carbon bath that tickles and soothes our itches we are always leaping for joy when mom says we are going to and get our bath. You must go here and try them out every dog that we see leaving this place looks like they are entering a dog show. You just cannot believe the personal nurturing grooming they provide I have never seen it from the 3 states and many groomers we have visited. We are sold no other groomer for us exists. They even called us when they noticed and injury to our dog. I am not sure how it happened but it was hard for us to see until they pointed it out. They called me and of course I ran over to the salon. We love the care and detail they provide to Chico and Poncho. read more

Dog Salon Kahala - So happy! My mini schnauzer always comes back looking good and also her disposition is always happy after! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

This is my dog's first time to Dog Salon Kahala. When I first got there, I was told that I didn't have an appointment. This made me a little upset since I confirmed the appointment with somebody the day before. The staff speaks very little English which made communication a little difficult. However, the groomer made it right by taking him in anyway. I would have been terribly upset if she did not, because I drove all the way from Kailua to Kahala just for my dog's grooming. On a positive note, Miho, the groomer did an excellent job! My dog was not nervous nor anxious, like he used to be with other groomers. That was worth it for me. The grooming was great but the price was hugely expensive!. But overall, I'm very satisfied with the groomer. read more

My dad always took my dog to the pacific paws place in hawaii kai because he's cheap about random things, but I thought I'd invest more in going here instead and it was sooooo much betTTERRRRR. I'm going to be honest about this, I don't enjoy the company of my dog. It's my grandma's so I honestly did not care about it's presence and didn't want to touch it because I thought it was kind of gross. Like yeah I know people that don't like dogs and dogs that don't like people are the ones you shouldn't trust or something according to the internet probably. But I didn't feel like dying from toxic dog stank at an early age just by touching this dog so there it is. ANYWAY so I arrange for my sister to drop the dog off at this salon and when I came to pick it up around 2 hours later they told me they needed another hour because there were SO MANY FLEAS ON IT that they had to re-do the flea dip bath thing a couple times over. I'm so so grateful for that. Like they actually put more effort than they needed to, to make sure this dog was flea-less. At the other places they just do the service once for what you paid for and if there are still some fleas left? Tough shite. And they didn't even charge extra! And they apologized for taking longer, but really I should've been the one saying sorry for unleashing this beast of burden onto them. So now I know that the dog was gross because it had fleas on it and I'm probably going to have to bomb my grandma's room and the entire house. And also take this dog back to this groomers again because I don't want it to suffer from fleas. The shop and area is super clean btw! and they sell the cutest collars, you should check it out while you're waiting for your dog to be pimped out. (there's also a place called helen's across the way if you're into the botox life style) After the extra hour my sister came back with the dog in hand and I had to take a moment... This dog came back with the most amazing afro and tail puff AND THEY PUT A SCARF THING so she looked like a scout or something idk. She was flea free and soooo cleaaannn and lovely to touch. It was like... was this what it's like to love? This salon is a national treasure & the groomers have the touch of god in their nimble hands. + I'm sure it's Japanese friendly if you're not too confident in your English and happen to speak Japanese So yeah, lay your head on this dog salon's bosom my child. They will take care of you. read more
