    Cats post nail cut
    Nina D.

    I have nothing but great things to say about Happy Grooming. My cats never let me cut their nails and I didn't know about any other options. After doing a quick search, I found that Happy Grooming will cut their nails for $10 cash (each cat) and will take them any time they are open without an appointment. I drop the cats off and within 3-5 minutes they are ready to go back home. I don't know how they do it, but I'm thoroughly impressed! Highly recommend!!

    Bad razor burn
    Melinda T.

    We took Lizzy to Happy Grooming for the fourth time in the last 8 months. The prior three times went great. However, this last trip was less than ideal. We picked her up Friday evening, and she looked great. After the rainy night on Saturday, we took her out for a walk. When we got back, we took off her harness and Lizzy instantly started scratching herself behind her right front leg. Then, there was blood! The picture is from a day after. The groomer had shaved her to the skin, and we weren't informed of this at pick up. We were not warned against any potential chafing. If the groomer had told us this, we would've been more prepared to monitor the spot and provide a barrier against scratching or chafing. Our vet was able to see her this morning first thing so we took her in to make sure there wasn't any infections as extra precaution. Luckily, Lizzy is fine with some prescription topical antibiotic. One vet bill later, we took Lizzy to the groomers to tell them what happened. My friend, Lizzy's owner, got defensive because it felt like the woman in charge at the front desk was blaming Lizzy for scratching herself after the discomfort caused by the groomer. There was no apology or fault accepted. In the end, Happy Grooming reluctantly agreed to pay 1/2 the vet bill. This is better than nothing, but we likely won't go back. It was clear that Lizzy was traumatized, and we don't want to do that to our poor girl. We understand mistakes happen, but if we had been warned at pick up that the razor burn had occurred, we could have taken action immediately and avoided further injury.

    Dog Grooming - Bath And Brush Only
    Catalina M.

    Could not be happier. I have a seven month old pudelpointer. She's a hunting dog so I've foolishly been attempting to bathe her myself. [She hates this]. I tried this place for the first time, based off my sister's recommendation. The staff were friendly, reasonably priced and did an amazing job! I warned them that her ears were dirty (she spends a lot of time running outside and I use wipes regularly.) Wow! I've never seen her ears so clean. She smells great and is so soft. I'm sure she'll be filthy again tomorrow but today, she's perfect. And even came home in an adorable bandanna. Will definitely be bringing her back.

    My boo after his grooming!
    Gwen B.

    My first born fur baby was in absolute desperate need of a grooming with tons of matted hair after months of quarantine. A friend recommended Happy grooming and we couldn't be more pleased with the results! Our fur baby got the BEST haircut he's ever had and they did the works (nails, anal glands, bathing, and cut). It was reasonably priced considering the state of his hair and there's a small cash discount as well. The first time discount was clutch and we loved the results! I had read comments about the unfriendliness of the staff but we didn't get any bad vibes. My boo is feeling fresh and looking good. We are happy grooming customers for life! Definitely recommend them, the results speak for themselves.

    Cut paw pad

    So I was a customer here for 2 years. Haven't been here in about 2 years. One day the severely cut my dog's paw pad. At first they were apologetic. The owner got involved and they covered our vet bill, only the standard fee portion. But we were quite pleased with their response, even though frustrated about our dog being hurt. Fast forward 3 months and we go to make another appointment with a different groomer, and we were told that they would not retain us as customers. Believe it or not, they hurt our dog and then black listed us as customers even though we weren't aggressive towards them. Real classy Update: Owner reached out to get more information and apologized. We moved onto another groomer 2 years ago, but I appreciate this.

    Had the best groom from this place! They took care of my baby, thank you!

    Update: this place is my go to place now this is her 3rd groom!! And they do such a great job! I also love the little scarves they give her.

    We love Happy Grooming! They are so friendly, and so patient and calm with our pup. Plus - they go above and beyond to send pictures to us during the process!

    They damaged my Pomeranian's fur around the neck
    Jiahui Z.

    My pomeranian used to have lovely fluffy fur. In February 2023, I took him to Happy Grooming, and they cut him incredibly short, which ruined his under-cover fur FOREVER and could never be grown back. His further has not grown back in six months. I'm extremely disappointed because the groomer was unfamiliar with pomeranian underfur. His fur around his neck is no longer silky. My hand finds it pokey. I'm so mad and sad.

    He was super matted, but look how cute they managed to make him! Instead of shaving!
    Mickey H.

    I only write reviews when I feel super strongly about an establishment. I've been to a couple other groomers and by far, happy grooming treats my dog the best (he always seems happy when I arrive to pick him up), and at the same time giving him the cutest haircut I can imagine. As a doodle, they get matted so fast if they aren't brushed often. My dog was super matted once after I picked him up from the place he was boarded, it seemed impossible for me to get those mats out. I thought they'd have to shave them completely. But they somehow succeeded to give him the cutest haircut ever. I don't know how they manage to NOT have to shave my cavapoo completely when he has mats like that, and still end up with the cutest puppy haircut, but they do it every time. I trust them so much and that means a lot because my dog it's super important to me. I attached a screenshot of my dogs Instagram caption saying how much we love it! All I wish is that this groomer had an Instagram.

    The groomer , they are so good and so professional for sure i will come back again because my dog so clean and got soft and fluffy hair

    I've been going to this place for almost 2 years now and couldn't be happier. I took my dog to a couple of groomers before this one with awful experiences of them butchering the hair of my dog. I took my dog here for the first time, described what I wanted and had pictures (due to past groomers never listening), and she came out looking exactly how I wanted. They really listened and are always open to adjust depending on the season. I keep my dogs hair a little fluffier/longer in the winter and short in the summer. My dogs hair gets matted quickly no matter how much I brush her so the fact that they are able to get them out without shaving her is amazing. If I could rate them 10/10 I would. Best groomer in Arlington!

    After haircut! So fluffy
    Beta H.

    Just took our Cavapoo Frank here for his first haircut and can't recommend Happy Grooming enough. I was nervous because I've seen some cavapoo haircuts that haven't looked great, but they did such a good job! Frank was also sad to leave when we came and picked him up. They even gave us some great tips as well to brush him and bath him at home. We'll definitely be coming back!

    Michelle S.

    Came here based on recommendations from neighbors. One of the best grooms I've ever seen on my pup! They were super patient and spent a reasonable amount of time on him. They book pretty far out so make sure you schedule asap! Pretty reasonable price for the area too!

However she didn't need it and was able to roam with the other dogs at the spa. Special shout out to Vee (Vi?)! She was super attentive and took the time to understand our preferences and make sure we were on the same page about the style we wanted. When we got home, our dog was her usual playful self (at other places, she'd come home stressed and subdued). It's clear they treated her with patience and care.

After the terrible groom my partner was told to come back for a they would fix it for free. She scheduled the appointment pointing out that she wanted the complimentary service (see photo) and when I picked her up they told me it was roughly $125. I told them I had a free service and they saw that in the system but that's not what they did. I overheard the lady behind the counter whisper that we were willing to pay the difference even though it is their fault . At that point I was unwilling to pay but my partner was at work and had already paid the entire amount online so that I did not have to have any issues. They reached out to the owner and we were assured that she would reach out to us and fix it. My partner reached out to Jodi (the owner) and she did not respond. This was in February and it is now May. I waited to post this in hope that I wouldn't have to because they would make it right. I understand that the groomer needs to be paid because the work was completed but their mistake shouldn't have been my problem. Oh I forgot to mention how we came about the complimentary service. The original cut was HORRENDOUS (see photo) my partner wrote a review about it and they offered us a complimentary bath and tidy to take it down. She agreed and removed the review(shady). All I want is my partner's money back. This review did not need to be posted but I hate that fact that we were taken advantage of by this business.

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.
