I cannot believe how heartless the owners were. I had the 1st appt of the day at 9:30AM, Four hours in and no word. I called to check in and was told I'd hear back within the hour. Almost 2 hours later and still no word, so I went to see for myself. They were working on my dog when I got there, he'd been there for 6 hours at this point. I asked why the delay and they said I'd have to ask the groomer. I asked is the groomer the boss or are you and they just stared at me, My 100lb labradoodle apparently waited in a cage all day and they had no explanation. They did NOT take him out to relieve himself or give him water all day. He had the 1st appt,, I do not understand. Never again. Down right CRUEL!! Holden's Owner/Brooklyn read more

They did such a good job with my mini golden doodle. The groomer was very friendly. I'll definitely bring him back next time. read more

Gentle Touch Dog Grooming - Pumpkin got a new hair cut. So cute! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I have not had the best experience with dog groomers, to say the least. Why on earth would I invest in a mini-poodle??? It was a pandemic adoption in 2020 when going outside wasn't much of an option as it was a necessity. I focused too much on hypo allergenic and not at all on maintenence. Apparently when the world shut down, so did most groomers. After almost 2 years of trial and error with groomers and multiple unsuccessful attempts to teach myself how to cut his hair, courtesy of you tube, I only managed to barely keep his hair out of his eyes. I stumbled upon this groomer. Same day appointment. I was skeptical so I arrived early and while I waited in my car I saw three perfectly groomed pooches walk out. After copies of the vaccine were made by the front desk, the groomer came out. She was pleasant and quickly established a rapport with Melo. He was pretty matted and she told me most of his hair would need to come off. No surprise there but I asked her to save what she could. A few hours later, donned in a red tie was my adorable poodle. She did cut down most of his hair but styled his ears. I am beyond thrilled. Two compliments from passersby on the way back to my car. I found what I hope is my forever groomer. Thank you Gentle Touch! read more

Gentle Touch Dog Grooming - Ted relaxing at home after his grooming. - Pet Groomers Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I took my pup here for the first time after reading good reviews. the name gentle touch does not meet what happened to my pup. When I picked my dog in the afternoon, I only inspected the dog when I got home. I found multiple scrapes and cuts on his skin by the belly near his and cuts with dried blood on the inside of his ear. I tend to question the validity of these reviews, To the proprietor of the place you need to figure out how to check the dogs when they get groomed and not allow for someone to hurt the animals even unintentionally. read more

This is a wonderful business. My dog is a female Havenese and she has been groomed at Gentle Touch for almost 10 years. We have used other dog groomers, but not one of them come close to the professionalism that we find here. Every time my dog Chloe is groomed here she looks absolutely marvelous. They are the BEST!!! read more

Took my 15 year old Shih Tzu in for grooming. I was able to get a fast and convenient appointment. The groomer did a great job on my cranky pup. He hates his face and his paws being touched. They were able to work with that and still do a great job. read more

The name says it all! I always feel happy and secure leaving my dogs there. The dogs are treated will love, care, and personal attention. It is a welcoming environment for owner and pet. I have been using Gentle Touch for over 20 years, first with my shih tzu KeeKee and now with my shih tzu Max. While all of the groomers are great, Daisy is wonderful! She knows all about my dog"s personality, issues ( allergies), and concerns. They are truly professionals that take their job to heart. Thank you, Gentle Touch! read more

Fantastic grooming services aside, they've been very helpful in getting me appts ASAP when emergency hit and I needed to leave town (2x during quarantine). Even through distancing their customers' arrivals so we don't cross paths, they've been friendly, and fun to chat with. My dog was happy to return, leaving me behind with no problem lol. He made friends I gather. read more

Best place. They really love what they do and it shows. When I bring my dog there he thinks it's a play date. My daughter brings her finicky dog there from New Jersey and she does very well. They listen to what you tell them and how you want you dog to look. What more can you ask for read more

First time using this service and I honestly think they did an amazing job! The cut was good but what really made me give the 5 stars was the customer service and the fact they actually brushed his teeth! I took my dog to different groomers and they would charge me but never brush his teeth and he was noticeable. They really did a great job and gave him the cutest bow tie. Thank you for making him a fresh handsome boy read more

Awesome grooming! Friendly staff! Quick to respond and efficient. I dropped off my pups for a trim and they did an amazing job. No cuts or scratches! My dogs came home happy and clean. What more can you ask for? I will be back soon! read more

This was my first time taking my Yorkie to the Gentle Touch Grooming and I obsoletely fell in love. Scheduling the appointment was easy. Once I got there a lady I believe by the name of Jane (not sure about the name) thoroughly listened to what style I wanted. The wait time is short compared to the other places i have been to. My dog was ready in an hour and a half and he was groomed exactly how I asked. They also gave him a little tie. The price is reasonable as well. I definitely will be bringing him back. I wish I had known about this place earlier. read more

Gentle Touch Dog Grooming - Pet Groomers Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

The worst dog groomer ever if i could give 0 stars I would . I made an appointment for my dog to get groomed the lady over the phone quoted me a price. I got to the place to find out she jumped it up 5$ extra no biggie that's fine so now she looks at my dog a (tea cup yorkie ) ("mind you the dog is on its way to the back ")and then jumpes up 15 $ more I asked why the lady on. The phone Gave me a Different price now the older lady who I spoke to over the phone says no I didn't say that then another lady jumps in and says if it's a problem you could take the dog so that's surly what I did disgusting people and disgusting place !!!!!!!! (Groomer) the practice of brushing and cleaning the coat of a horse, dog, or other animal.......they complained about naps on a tiny dog isn't that your JOB!!!!!! read more

Of all the groomers in Brooklyn, I would recommend Gentle Touch over them all. Hyla, Daisy, and Eric are the *sweetest* people, and they run the place remarkably well. They're very good with sticking to appointments and time constraints (from what I've seen, the little place runs like an assembly line), and they treat their clients like four-legged royalty, taking extra care to note your pet's particular neuroses or medical problems (i.e. if your dog doesn't like being touched on his ears or something). And when your puppy's appointment is over, they tie a little holiday or seasoned theme bandanna around his neck just for a cute touch. They remember names and faces too, which is always a delight when I say my last name on the phone and they already know who I'm bringing in. :-) The address is a little out of the way for some people since it's on the far side of Marine Park, but it's worth it for a happy dog and great service. For the curious, relative prices for a full cut/shave-down fall at around $45-50 for a medium-sized dog. read more

Lynn is super friendly and loves dogs. She has always taken great care of my Casey and he loves to go see her too. If you're going to trust anyone to take care of and dare i say, pamper your pet, send them here. They really know what they're doing. read more

I love this place! We adopted a very nervous cocker spaniel last October. He has a very hard time with new people and struggles with being touched, especially if it involves loud noises (i.e. clippers). I was hesitant to bring him to the groomer at ALL, but as soon as I met Barb at Gentle Touch, I felt assured he was in good hands. After about 2 hours, they called my cell and said he was ready to pick up. I went in and he was happy as can be. I was SHOCKED when Barb said he was loving and a good dog the whole time! My little neurotic pup? No way! She clearly loves animals and has a way of making them feel safe. LOVE Barb and love Gentle Touch! read more

Always very nice, helpful and they treat my dog very well with good results. I would highly recommend Gentle Touch. I like to support local businesses and if they continue the high quality of service, I will continue to be a loyal client. It makes my dog tired after which allows me to take a nap too! read more

This place is as good as it gets. There is No Other Grooming place I TRUST to give my little girl Sabrette a Bath and have her Nails clipped. I will Never go any place else and I Live 30 to 40 minutes away from Gentle Touch Grooming. You can tell that the staff really cares and loves what they do. You can tell this by the Fantastic work they do. I have NEVER been dissatisfied with their work, not even a little!!! I give the entire staff props for the work they do... Thank you to the Entire Staff, Chris & Sabrette read more

I'm going to start this review off with 4 stars. I'm feeling pretty optimistic. I was recommended by my aunts neighbor. My dog Brooklyn is going there today for the first time. His appointment is in 2 hours. I sent him with my husband who has a clear picture of what I want him to look like, so lets see if they can pull it off. I will be back to update this review later, with pictures. C'mon Gentle Touch, dont let me down!! Revised after grooming: Ok so Brooklyn is back home. His body cut is amazing. Serena did a great job with that. His face cut was not what I asked for AT ALL.....I wasn't elated about that but tolerated as his hair grows quickly. He looked happy and I liked the little bandana tied on his neck. I was quoted $65 flat by Seagan. 55 plus 10 to brush his teeth. When I picked him up I was charged $70. I never nickle and dime so I let it slide, but no one could really explain the additional $5. Serena stated Brooklyn was not matted at all which I knew already...anyway, I just wrote it off as a tip...but next time I will pay what I was quoted...and tip on my own. So yes, Brooklyn will be going back. I was happy with the service overall. And I would recommend this place to others. Ps. Bring cash or check...no cards accepted!! read more

Golden Touch is excellent, they practically accepted my pup right off the street. They were very friendly and informative. Answered all questions with no hesitation, even when I sounded a little mixed up. Would definitely recommend and will be returning to this grooming facility. My pup came out clean and smelling nice. read more

Great friendly service. Gives advise on my dog's care, diet and vaccinations. My dog didn't want to leave.

After having tried Gloria's Dog Salon (see my previous review) this place was a God send. The groomers are personable and treat your dog as if it is their own. They do a great job and my dog always leaves there smelling so good with a cute little banana around his neck. The price is fair ($50 for a medium sized dog). They stick to appointments and when they say your dog will be ready in 2 hours, they mean it. They also pay attentionto whatever special needs your pet may have, which is very important to me. I definitely recommend this place. read more
