Ridiculous cut.
Brennan P.

DoozyDog is usually really clean, convenient, and efficient. I wanted to like it really badly. However, without being unnecessarily disrespectful or rude, I have to say that this was the worst grooming job my dog has ever received. DoozyDog, come on. Do better. My toy Australian shepherd was buzzed throughout, except for his neck and head which were left at a normal/clean and poofy 2 inch cut. It was noth even close to what I asked for when I spoke to the groomer. It is nothing like a standard shepherd/border cut. He looked so bad, in fact, that every person we passed on the walk home laughed, one even asked if he had surgery! How did this get by the staff honestly? You should be ashamed of yourselves taking people's hard earned money (which is being STRETCHED for everyone during this pandemic). It's unacceptable to pay over $70 for this service.

STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS If i could give a negative rating I would. We booked a simple grooming appointment and nail hair trimming for our long hair dachshund and when we picked him up his whole body had been shaved. Even worse, it looked like it had been done by a three year old. When we spoke to the manager, he said it must have been a misunderstanding. no duh? If they can mess up something this simple and are this lax on the details, I certainly wouldn't trust them to board my dog overnight.... Needless to say we are closing our account at Doozy and will no longer be a customer of theirs.

Naughty bits not cleaned up

I'm increasing this review for completely outstanding service by DoozyDog, but leaving it at 3 stars for level of talent of their groomers with poodles. The gm called me and returned my money, apologized, and set up a follow up appointment for clean up. That was well above what I expected from any company and I really appreciate it. I had some anxiousness about it, but I brought the dogs in for a clean up. They had a different groomer do this. Both poodles were just brought all the way down losing any shape that was in the original cut. I'm not a Groomer, so perhaps the hair wasn't able to be saved. Ears were still not plucked, but it was reasonably even. If you have a poodle, I would just pay the extra $20 and go to Masterpiece Groomers when they open back up. The groomers at doozy seem to cut most dogs fine, but this location does not have a groomer that is worthy of a $85 cut on a poodle.

BEWARE. Short: I have had my pup groomed multiple times at Doozy Dog, but have only boarded her there on 2-3 occasions. Due to the condition that my pup was in upon pickup after boarding, we will not be returning. With past boarding at Doozy Dog, Harley has been groomed prior to check out. However, during this stay, Doozy Dog forgot to groom her prior to checkout, as scheduled (the scheduling of which I confirmed both before and during check-in), and would not "fit her in" this afternoon despite the error being theirs. As frustrating and as inconvenient as this was, it was a blessing in disguise. If it were not for this failure-- I would not have seen the dried mound of feces that must have been clinging to my pup for the several day duration of her boarding (photos attached). Further, her and her belongings smelled atrocious. This begs the question as to whether this has happened in the past, and due to her grooming prior to checkout I've been unaware? I will not subject her to this again, nor do I intend to pay a premium to do so. I originally went to Doozy Dog because of their nice facility, and the fact that I could get my dog a private suite. However, these things are useless if what I experienced today reflects their usual standard of care. Note, as to the grooming issue -- they offered to schedule her next weekend. While I initially accepted, Harley's condition upon pickup resulted in my cancellation. The cherry on top, I heard someone yell her name in a harsh tone while I was waiting for her to be brought out. Again, it makes you wonder... Very disappointed.

The grooming was far from what I had requested, and that isn't even considering the shaved eyebrow and choppy ears, face and body. I've tried this place twice over two years, 0/2.

My dog being humped by this dog 17 times.

I chose this spot because it was convenient to my house, and now that my 6 month puppy is older--it's a lot harder to "tire her out." When I did my meet and greet, there was a lot of staff around and it seemed super pro-active. Fast forward to watching the camera throughout the day, and my 6 month puppy got HUMPED 17 TIMES by this one dog while she was trying to play with a black dog. There was no staff in the play area monitoring. No matter where she went, she was aggressively stalked and dangerously mounted by this brown dog, her play partner was not spared either. Luckily both dogs submitted, but I don't think this is "healthy play" and could have easily caused a problem were it another dog. It took 7 phone calls before I reached someone to ask to separate my dog. I bet if I hadn't been watching she would have spent the rest of her time trying to run and avoid this one dog. Does doozydog support this behavior? Where was the staff? Why aren't they monitoring the dogs closer? I don't understand why it took so long to get ahold of someone and why there isn't someone to correct this behavior. I already purchase a 24 punch card, and willing to give this place a second chance and update my review as my puppy continues to go there.

Bad haircut, staff didn't wear mask and did not provide the right service for his special day.

See all

Where do people park for a quick drop-off/pick-up? Is there off-street parking?

Parking around this area (and at 14th/Florida in particular) is always challenging... try some of the smaller streets nearby like Belmont, Chapin, or Clifton, although even this likely will require some patience and driving around a bit.

Danielle is friendly and reliable and most of all - she does a great job. We always go with a short cut on our Maltese for ease of maintenance and Danielle's cuts are very consistent. Our dog always looks the same, which is a big positive in my book. Other groomers have delivered inconsistent looks when we simply wanted the same haircut. The convenience of the mobile service is hard to beat too. It's a little more expensive than service at a brick and mortar building, but it's worth it in my opinion. You won't regret going with this business for your furry friend's grooming needs. Highly recommended. ***In the post-grooming photo of my pup, he'd had a recent vet procedure that resulted in a stitch in his forehead and a partially shaved right leg. Danielle was careful and attentive***

Most groomers do multiple dogs at once--and your dog sits in a cage in the meantime. Not great. Maria is working with just one dog --yours--from start to finish--so it's way less stress for your baby. I should also mention that Maria is the best, kindest, most competent dog groomer in the DMV. Full stop. If you have a small dog, don't even *think* about going anywhere else! Not only will your furbaby be gorgeously groomed, you will have the peace of mind of knowing he is being cared for by 1) someone who genuinely loves dogs, and 2) is also incredibly talented and experienced. I don't trust my little guy with anyone but Maria.

Upon arriving, we were all greeted enthusiastically and Gracie did not show any trepidation about going with the groomer, which she usually does when going to get groomed. She was very happy when we picked her up and looked beautiful. Masterpiece did a phenomenal job. The space is clean, open (so you can see what is being done to your dog), and it only took an hour. I am so grateful to have found Masterpiece and Abby. If I could give more than five stars, I would. Thank you Abby and Masterpiece team!

Having a cat groomed or shaved is not easy, and finding a place that specializes in feline grooming can be even harder! Not only do they work with my busy schedule, but they also take the absolute best care of BJ. I always feel completely comfortable dropping her off, and even better when I pick her up. The staff is professional, caring, and truly understands how to make both pets and their owners feel at ease. A special shoutout to BJ's bestie, Jerrod! His calm demeanor is contagious, and he makes BJ feel so safe and comfortable during her grooming appointments. It is clear how much he cares about the animals he works with, and that peace of mind means everything to me. We love it here and highly recommend Masterpiece Canine Spa!

I've been looking for a place to take my dog to get groomed. The closest I could get an appointment…read moreduring the holidays was Virginia. Luckily I had heard that my building has grooming services. So I looked into it further found their card at the front desk. I emailed them and received a promo reply. I requested a later grooming as I work. I was offered 4pm appointment. When I arrived they were not ready for my dog so I brought her back down in another 45 as they requested. I didn't want to leave her in cage waiting. That's the good thing about having groomer in the building. Many groomers elsewhere same thing happens and you don't have that flexibility. Although I usually call first to make sure they are not running late. The staff was courteous. They started the grooming at 4:45 and it was over by 6:30. The place I had taken her in Virginia didn't do such a great job and the ears were not plucked so she was in dire need of some real grooming. When I arrived to pick her up she was super happy and alert. She looked and smelled wonderful. And even got a bow. It didn't last long on her hair but she looked adorable. I have a shin tzu and the grooming cost $70 before tip. Just to give you an idea. However, it was well worth it. Suggested you email them in advance because they do fill up quickly. When I brought her home and inspected their work the ears were clean and no hair in there. The pads of the feet were trimmed nicely and the size of the cut I think she said was 5 was excellent. Just right for my pup. I will definitely use them again. Highly recommend upscale grooming!!!
