    Betty and Hermoine...Betty, is the best dog groomer and fabulous person. We adore her!
    Joy B.

    What a wonderful experience we had at Elysiem today. Elysiem is a pet store and grooming facility. They are located on Park Potomac Avenue, right across from Harris Teeter. The store is impeccably clean and well organized. They have treats, clothing, toys, and other pet items. The people who work there are phenomenally nice and kind. And, best of all, We Found Betty!! Betty is the Best Dog Groomer I have ever had the pleasure to meet. She is super kind and gentle with dogs in her care. She is a total professional and does an epic job on grooming. We just love her and I can't say enough good things about her. I would give Betty 20 stars, if I could. Hermoine is so happy and looking good! I highly recommend Elysiem for their kindness, care, and expertise. Can I get an Amen, we are happy to be home. Thanks Betty and Elysiem!

    After being loyal customers for almost 4 years, we are officially done with Groomingville…read moreRockville. Our last three visits have been frustrating, but this final experience was the breaking point. I brought my Border Collie in with very specific, detailed instructions for a "pet trim" to improve her comfort and hygiene: Detailed scissoring and blending on the legs to avoid blunt, choppy cuts. Thinning shears to reduce density on her tail while maintaining the "flag" look. A "tunnel belly" and sanitary trim for cooling. Instead of the skilled scissor work I requested, they took the absolute "easy way out." They finished her entire grooming in 30 minutes (it usually takes an hour), and when I picked her up, she had been shaved to a 1/8th inch "puppy cut" all over. For a double-coated breed, this is devastating to their ability to regulate temperature. When I called to address this, they claimed I asked for an "all-over trim." In what world does a request for a blended, functional trim result in a total shave-down? To make matters worse, the staff member hung up on me, saying they were "really busy" and offered zero accommodation or apology for ignoring my instructions. It is incredibly disappointing to see a business treat a long-time customer with such blatant disregard. They clearly prioritize speed and high turnover over actual grooming technique and customer service. We will not be returning.

    They did a amazing job, kind lady at front and super sweet girl who did the shave on my dog. I made…read moresure to tip $30 & i love how my dog looks. Thanks Dc!

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***

    Okay, obviously having the grooming van come to your door is incredibly convenient. What you might…read morenot realize, it minimizes a huge amount of stress! 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.

Excitement takes over the moment we pull up; my little boy actually leaps out of the car and races for the front door, eager for the warm attention he always receives. Dr. Katie and her staff are fantastic, maintaining high professional standards while working directly on the dog's level on the floor. Luca genuinely thinks it is playtime while Dr. Katie expertly examines him through interaction and play. Hearing from the staff that my pupper is such a good boy during treatments--and doesn't even blink at vaccinations--provides total peace of mind because it is clear he feels completely safe in their hands. Entrusting my little guy to their care is consistently an A+ experience.

Most recently our senior Lab had to undergo an Ultrasound and then abdominal surgery to biopsy come suspicious growths. Throughout the entire process the VPP staff and surgeon, Dr SJ, were so kind and thorough in explaining everything to me and reassuring me regarding the invasive procedure and follow-up care. EVERY single staff member is so friendly and caring and seem to love my dog as much as I do! I felt very comfortable following their suggestions and would recommend them as a 10 out of 10! The office is immaculately clean with lovely, soothing colors and artwork in all the rooms. And the rooms all have pet-friendly sofas so the furry patients can get comfy next to their owners! I cannot recommend them more highly!

Every booking, every pet, every time: more signatures and "agreements" than a mortgage closing. Somewhere there's a lawyer who's never met a dog and decided the real threat to this business is the guy who's paid them loyally for three years. You carefully fill out the entire grooming form online, pick every option -- then show up and they shove a paper copy across the counter to sign the exact same thing again. And after all that paperwork, they still claim they don't have the phone number they've had on file for three years and called me on before. Let's put this in perspective. I can order dinner to my door in two taps -- Reorder, Apple Pay, done. A stranger drives hot food across town on the strength of my thumbprint. But dropping off dogs these people have known for three years apparently requires a signing ceremony and a fresh liability waiver every single visit. In 2026, that's not caution. That's a business that's forgotten how to trust its own customers. And then there's the membership -- the crown jewel of contempt. They took a system that worked and actively torched it. Gone are the daycare credit packs: fair, flexible, buy-what-you-need, the way a business treats people it respects. In their place, a pricier monthly "membership" that auto-drafts your card whether your dog walks through the door or not, with no rollover for the days you paid for and never used. Read that again: you pay, they keep it, your dog gets nothing, and they call it a perk. It's not a membership -- it's a standing withdrawal from your bank account with a bow on it. It punishes the exact people who kept this place in business: the regulars whose lives don't run on a fixed weekly schedule. Some months my dogs come once, some months five times, because that's how actual life works -- and this program is built to make sure I lose either way. It doesn't serve pets. It doesn't serve owners. It serves a spreadsheet, and it treats every loyal customer as a recurring charge to be maximized rather than a person to be valued. It is, top to bottom, the most openly hostile "loyalty" scheme I've ever been asked to fund. When customers spend more time signing forms and fighting your billing than petting their dogs, you're not a pet resort -- you're a law firm with a kennel attached. Take your pets somewhere that still remembers what the word "customer" means.
