Waiting to hear from Vet so I can have him evaluated for signs of abuse. My poor baby. This business is in Lawrence Kansas. take your pet to Petsmart in Lawrence Kansas instead. Worse business I have experienced in my travels across the nation. All these good reviews are fraudulent. There is no way they have these good reviews! They started cutting my dogs hair and figured out they didnt know how. Ask for certifications from the groomers. Never go to the woman who looks dirty and on something. Go to Petsmart these people are dangerous.

My Annie got butchered at her last grooming appointment. I decided to try a new groomer but along…read morewith that comes fear and trepidation. You don't want to leave your baby with just anyone. I asked all my friends with dogs, I posted on Facebook and the unanimous answer I received was to go to Shelbie at Absolute Pawfection. I made the appointment and showed up promptly for Annie's grooming. Shelbie could not have been better. She did a fabulous job. Before the appointment she had sent out a text message saying customers needed to allow four hours for services but she was finished with Anne in just over an hour. Annie looked adorable, too. Her tail was wagging and she was as happy with her experience as I was. Absolute Pawfection is located in a stand-alone building and it's a sizeable place. Shelbie has basically turned two separate stores into one big grooming facility. There is plenty of parking and the business is easy to access. I got there around 7:45 am and the place was buzzing with activity. The inside is nicely decorated with lovely paintings of animals. There is a gorgeous cat, Chores, who served as the greeter. Chores made me smile. The price was very reasonable. I have paid more for worse service elsewhere. I liked the way Shelbie and Mandi were with the animals. Annie was not nervous or afraid at all. There was just a great vibe about this establishment. I was so pleased I made a repeat appointment. Highly recommended! Woof Woof (from Annie).

Love. Love. Love. I adopted a husky that was found outside covered in RAW SEWAGE. I had no idea…read morewhat to do, and the closest grooming appointment I could find elsewhere was days away. I left a desperate voicemail with Absolute Pawfection with a plead for help, and they called me back at 8:30pm (way past closing time when they shouldn't have to help anyone) and told me that after his veterinary appointment in the morning, I should call her and she would just work him in. I almost cried, he smelled so bad. I walked him in, and he was met with open arms (and two adorable cats in the window). They got him worked in in less than two hours and he was so fluffy and smelled like flowers. He was also so happy when I picked him up, not stressed at all. They did not have to work in a filthy new client husky last minute, but they did. I can't recommend enough. I will only be going here from now on.

Today 09/10/2024 I took my dog Thor, a giant schnauzer for the first time to your salon. I was…read morehappy because I received a call with an appointment sooner than I had expected. The staff, from the phone call to when I got there were friendly. Came to this place even though they charged me double the money than at other salons because I saw it had good reviews and references. Clearly it was a mistake. My baby since he got back from the groomer doesn't stop shaking his head and scratching one ear like it bothers him. I was very clear and detailed regarding the grooming including his ears, but he came back with his ears FULL of hair and very dirty. I'm very disappointed. I hope my dog doesn't develop an ear infection, which he has never had.

My wife and I boarded our two Maltese dogs here from May 31 to June 7, 2026…read more Unfortunately, our experience was extremely disappointing. We left 16 packets of Cesar wet dog food along with both written and verbal instructions that each dog was to receive one packet per day. We provided 2 packets for immediate feeding and 14 additional packets for the rest of the stay. When we picked up our dogs, we were given 11 packets back. That means only 5 packets were used during an 8-day stay, despite our clear feeding instructions. We were also given back 100% of the dog treats we had left for them. In addition, we provided enough heart medication for our female dog, who has a heart murmur, to cover the entire boarding period. The night before pickup, we received a call stating they had run out of her medication. However, when we picked up our dogs, we were given 4 pills back. This raises serious concerns about whether her medication was administered properly and consistently. My wife called to discuss these issues with management and spoke with Wynona. Rather than addressing our concerns, she felt talked over and dismissed. For nearly $600 in boarding fees, we expected our dogs' feeding and medication instructions to be followed carefully. Instead, the response we received felt indifferent and lacked accountability. It's especially disappointing because we've had positive experiences here in the past. The groomers do a great job, but we've also experienced delays in being notified when grooming appointments were complete, sometimes waiting hours before receiving a pickup call. Based on this experience, we will not be returning for boarding services, and we are considering other options for grooming as well. I will also be contacting corporate regarding these concerns.

The staff has taken great care to place her with other "senior" pups and welcomes her by name and treats her kindly and gently.

In this picture I provided and what is circled is what they used to hit the dogs when they don't behave or bark. Please watch who you take your fur babies too Wizard of Paws response is lies. Those red toys circled were on All the cages all over the building to hit dogs with!! You're right she seen the behavior and the trash talking of clients!!! You are lucky she even stayed as long as she did you were lucky to have her and not get called out to the clients about the behavior at your shop!! The one towel rule is just gross! You have a very different definition of high standards!!!I personally feel people have a right to know what goes on with their animals. I would want to know. Regardless of what you feel, she should and shouldn't have been doing to your standards, which the one towel thing doesn't seem like they too high to reach. Never the less doesn't give anyone MONICA in that shop the right to hit on dogs. So your clients can use their own judgment on your red "all the same, grandkids toys" . Shame on this place!
