    Snarl in freshly groomed fur

    We went to Amy for our 15-week old Bernedoodle puppy's first grooming experience. Positives: Amy obviously has a way with animals; Charlie came back from the session with his tail wagging, and he tried to run after Amy when she left! He smells amazing and his body hair looks great. She obviously made him feel comfortable. As you'd expect with mobile grooming, it was super convenient. She was also very communicative and helped us reschedule our appointment when our plans changed. The downside: We asked for very minimal trimming on his face, just enough so we could see his eyes again, and we lost a lot more fluff than we would've liked and are not a fan of his "haircut". All of his eyebrows are gone, and the blending around the face looks rough. I am sure this had a lot to do with him being a wiggly puppy, but we would've strongly preferred not to have this much hair removed in the first place, especially if the end result was going to be jagged. On top of this, I've found a lot of little snarls in his coat immediately post-groom, which is a little frustrating: we've been brushing him daily to prevent this, and his puppy fur hasn't been prone to tangling prior to this. Again, it's very possible he was getting too overstimulated for Amy to continue with brushing, but it would've been nice for her to tell us this. Overall, I think Amy is great for puppies and likely most dogs without a doodle coat, but I think we'll be going elsewhere for follow up visits.

    Our pup has never looked this amazing after a grooming appointment (seriously)! Although we got started a bit after the scheduled time, considering things like traffic and the lack of parking downtown, the delay was not terrible. Amy took such good care of our pup -I'm impressed with her look because my husband and I didn't have a vision per se, but Amy fulfilled our fluffy pup dreams! She took her time with Bella's mats and shaved the ones in sensitive areas to keep her comfortable and healthy, while maintaining her aesthetic. Although the services can be a bit pricey with timing and such, I know my pup benefitted from being the only dog in the van as she can get riled up from wanting to play. I would highly recommend this for pets that are like that or are just generally anxious about grooming. TLDR: I'm super happy with my pup's look, and would recommend Amy!

    House and Hound is the BEST! It was the first time I used them, and I'm so glad I did. Amy is professional, a great listener, prompt, and worked with me to ensure Harley, my English Spring Spaniel (9 years old), was groomed VERY well. Amy even got out the grooming standard book, as we discussed Harley's haircut. Gold Star for accuracy and precision! Having previously gone to a regarded groomer for the last year and endured a very bad recent haircut, I was nervous about starting over. Yet, Amy worked to clean up Harley's lines and and make her simply beautiful again. Harley got the full service bath, grooming, teeth, and nails! Pup beautification complete. I'm so glad I chose House & Hound - our next appointment is already booked. Don't go anywhere else - just call Amy. She comes to you, with a great attitude and provides gentle, quality care and grooming for your pup. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

    Our golden shows her neat fancy pants and deshedded coat.

    First time grooms for our 6 yr old golden and 2 yr old corgi, and it couldn't have gone better. Amy found a flat space for her mighty grooming van at a nearby school because our cul de sac is too sloped. My pups met her and then I walked our golden over. This pup can be anxious and had some sap and mats to remove from her coat. I helped Amy put her in the tub and left for a while. Amy likes a natural look on Goldens, and I agree. Pup's legs were tidied but still feathered, fancy pants shaped, coat deshedded, and tail dematted. She's sooo soft now. Our corgi needed much less in the way of mat removal, but he got his toenails Dremmeled, booty shaped and he smells great!

    The first appointment was great. The second not so great. It was a strange encounter that left me hurt & disappointed.

    This is apparently a really good groomer, but it seems they are already at capacity with clients…read moreand do not need any new customers. At least that is how I interpret their failure to respond to any of my inquiries. If they are no longer booking clients or responding to their website inquiries, then they should simply put a notice on their website saying, "No longer accepting new clients, for now. Thank you for your interest."

My 6 month old yorkipoo got his first grooming with Diane. Diane was attentive, calm, very good with my puppy and did an excellent job. Also, I appreciate her asking me what style of cut I wanted. I asked for a trim so his hair doesn't look like he got buzz cut. She seems to be very good with dogs. My pup left happy & even cuter then when he arrived. He received so many compliments so I'll definitely bring him back for another grooming. Little Bear Grooming will be my puppy's main go-to groomer. Can't wait to bring him back for another cut! Workstation/Facility: Clean, spacious, sturdy table & tub Products: pet friendly products and all the proper tools for trimming nails, cleaning ears, teeth cleaning Customer Service & Groomer: attentive, friendly, and considerate of the owner's and dog's feelings, easy to schedule an appointment, convenient Haircut/Style: cute round face trimming, I like how she trimmed and shaped his leg fur, rounded out his paws, he smelled so good and felt so soft

My dog has been dealing with constipation and yellow liquid poop for 4 days for what can pass through. I am considering taking her to the vet today. They really should talk to the vendor they are receiving these from as they are obviously selling pig ears with a lot of fat or grease that is causing constipation.

The gentleman had on a newsboy cap and the woman had reddish hair (forgive me for not having better details, I was so sad. But the sentiment remains the same.) There are businesses you visit, and then there are places that become part of your family's story. All The Best falls firmly into the latter category. Since moving to Ballard, our dog was a regular visitor. He'd shamelessly help himself to treats from the bins, tail wagging with pure delight at his "successful" heist-- the cashiers were always so gracious. And on top of that, the store regularly hosts wonderful community events (like the wading pool they set up during farmers market days.) But it was on our dog's final day that the staff last Wednesday morning truly showed us the greatest kindness. We brought him in one last time, and they let him steal treats to his heart's content. Without being asked, they prepared a goodie bag filled with food and treats he might enjoy, and they gave me forget-me-not seeds. In a moment when I was completely broken, they showed such genuine compassion and understanding. Those treats kept Teddy calm and happy in his last moments, and I will never forget the incredible kindness of their gesture. If you're looking for a pet store where your furry family members will be truly welcomed and cherished, where the staff genuinely cares about your pet's happiness, and where you'll be treated like family, this is your place. Thank you to the team for being such beautiful souls. You've made me a customer for life.
