Jules G.

This service was fast and affordable for teeth cleaning. My dog was quickly serviced and came back very calm. This is important because any dental cleaning or vet like visits is stressful for dogs, but my dog was well cared for and it showed. Her teeth look amazing and clean now!

Amazing first time at K9 Grillz Costa Mesa with my 9 year-old! She is super shy, but he did an amazing job with her! I am embarrassed that I haven't taken care of her teeth before, but I know it is never too late to take care of your dog's health. I will 100% keep up her dental cleaning routine going forward now that I have found this place. She has never gotten her teeth cleaned before because I was afraid of putting her under with anesthesia. My friend's dog never woke up when she went under. I had an appt at the Costa Mesa location and I think his name was Robby? He was so informative, professional, and made me feel very comfortable having him handle my dog. The exam and dental cleaning went great! I'm so happy he was able to do such an amazing dog with her teeth. I think they work with Healthy Spot pet store! I was required to pay inside with the ladies in the store. I used Apple Pay which was very convenient for me. I brought cash just in case, but they only take cards/Apple Pay. I decided to get some dog treats and a few toys while I waited a short 20 mins for him to finish her cleaning. I will routinely come back for teeth cleanings because I want my pup to maintain great dental hygiene now that I have found a place that doesn't put her under!! Plenty of parking in a private lot and by the street right nearby the Healthy Spot store.

Before teeth cleaning

Took my cat in today for the first time and didn't know what to expect. I was hesitant to do under anesthesia teeth cleaning since there are risks with anesthesia so I figured I'd try K9. They did a FANTASTIC job and I will be back. Wow! I took a photo of her teeth before and after and the difference is substantial. I'm so glad I took her in. My cat didn't seem bothered or upset at all leaving which is a good sign they were gentle with her. They also had great communication telling me where they saw the most build up on her teeth.

Robby is the best at taking care of Ninja's teeth. She already knows the routine and lies her head on his lap while he cleans her teeth.

Great service and great staff! I've been taking my dog Ninja to K9 Grillz when they visit the Costa Mesa Healthy Spot for 7+ years now. And every time we go here, Robby and the team take extra care of Ninja and her teeth. I love their service and Ninja gets her teeth cleaned about every 3-4 months. Ninja is an older dog so to have a service that does not use anesthesia is great. Thank you Robby and the team at K9 Grillz!

I typically take my dog to the Hancock park location and the doctor has always been so nice and caring with my dog. You can tell they love animals and will always inform you on what's best for them. Coming from someone who is very overprotective of their dog I can say I will ALWAYS recommend this place!

ANESTHETIC FREE TEETH CLEANING WAS A SUCCESS =========================================== My furry family member does not do well with anesthesia, so I have been putting off getting his teeth cleaned for a really long time. I brush them myself, but he really needed some extra TLC in that department. About three months ago a good friend of mine recommended K9 Grillz, so I made an appointment. They did let me know that if there were any major dental problems that they would not be able to proceed with the cleaning. I think the charge for the inspection would have been $30.00. Tucker's teeth had no major problems, so they were able to proceed. I was very happy with the end result and the total charge was $170.00 with the recommendation to bring him back in six months. I think Tucker and I can handle that. They work out of a beautiful Mercedes van that they park at various Healthy Spot locations during the month. I chose their monthly visit at Healthy Spot in Pasadena. It is right around the corner from Urth Cafe so you can run over and grab a coffee really quick while your furry family member is getting his or her teeth cleaned. I recommend them if you are looking for an alternative to anesthesia.

Cannot speak more highly of K9 Grillz! The Tech RR (only have his initials from the report), that cleaned our small dog's teeth did an amazing job! He was so good with her and we couldn't be happier with the dental cleaning results. I would strongly recommend K9 Grillz for your pet!

Makena G.

My dog had his teeth cleaned by K9 Grillz in Berkeley. Usually my dog is nervous when seeing a vet. My dog began peeing as I handed him to K9 Grillz. I would recommend pet owners attempting to use their service. Dental health is critical. They examine your dog well and perform a physical. If your dog is not complying, they will not force the service. It's worth the exam at least and opinion by a dentist who is not affiliated with a Vet. I will continue booking appointments. The price is reasonable. Anesthesia is dangerous. For your pets sake, it's worth a try.

Simba G.

My dog teeth are cleaned in Berkeley at Healthy Spot. Glad I found this business. I save a lot of money by not putting my dog through anesthesia. I have his teeth cleaned twice annually. Sometimes three times. Well worth it. Have a hard time cleaning my dogs teeth. Rather have him eat healthy and have his teeth cleaned by K9 Grillz. Price is reasonable. My dog is more comfortable than he is at a vet for general appointments. Paid about $250.

Do you do cats?

Yes absolutely. Procedure and pricing is exactly the same. Feel free to email us at info@k9grillz.com and we can send you a detailed informational document that explains exactly how the appointment works, pricing break down, and how to schedule.… 

How much is the current price of the cleanings, plus the exam?

I think $250 total for exam and cleaning. Our dog only got the exam and not the cleaning because of extensive issues. Exam only was $40.

Do you metal cap / crown dog's teeth?

I am not completely certain, but I don't think they perform any medical procedures. They purely clean the teeth.

With this type of cleaning without anesthesia is it possible to get underneath the pets gums? I read a response recently from someone stating that most bacteria is under the gums so this wasn't a good option. My dog is 11.

Thanks for the question. This is a common misconception. We thoroughly screen patients for issues that must be dealt w/ under general anesthesia (GA) i.e. loose teeth, deep pockets, significant infections etc & if found, send them to anesthesia. If…

You can check their website where they have a schedule of the time and places they are at each healthy spot. I believe it varies from each day :)

My aunt past me her Pomerania and he has really bad breath how much for a teeth cleaning?

I was quoted $250 as of 2/2022

How long does the procedure take?

About 25 minutes

How much is it for a teeth cleaning for my chihuahua mix?

Los Angeles current prices as of 9/1/2019 - $30 for exam and an additional $125 for prophylaxis (cleaning) = total $155 for completed non-anesthetic dental. K9 Grillz does not offer first time clients a discount. Perhaps the discount the client… 

Do u make actual grillz for dogs?

No

Is there just the one location? Or do you have multiple locations in the LA Area?

Please visit our website and go to our schedule and locations page. We are at over 15 locations all over LA, SFV, Long Beach, Orange County and we will soon be in San Fran. You can also visit our Instagram and look at our highlights/locations.

Are x-rays included in their service or is that extra the $155? And, what service is included?

Please send a direct message for response. Thank you

Do you only accept cash or debit too?

Payment is taken by our partners Healthy Spot. They take cash, credit and debit card. There is one known exception - Healthy Spot Century City is credit/debit only - no cash at that location.

How long is the process? I'm planning on taking my dog tomorrow but I live far from the location so I wanted to know an estimate time that it takes? Also what shots are required?

20-30 minutes

I've always struggled with brushing my Maltese teeth and has now caused tartar build up and bad breath. Would he be a candidate for the non-anesthetic cleaning? If so, what's the price?

Hi Jay, I think any size/breed is a candidate. They examined my dog first to determine if he was amenable to the procedure (i.e., wouldn't bite!) before going ahead with the cleaning. I remember the cost was around $160.

How much does a non-anesthetic cleaning cost?

A total of $155. This includes a $30 exam fee, which is the only thing you would pay if the doctor finds a problem with your pet, that would require anesthesia to correct. (Needing teeth extracted is one example that would disqualify your pet from…

We kept coming back for the convenient location--until today. I arrived 15 minutes early for my dog's 2:30 PM appointment. At check-in, the front desk (Crystal) asked me to prepay, which was new to me. When I asked what services were included, she said only vaccines. I had previously requested microchipping a week ago, but that wasn't noted. She mentioned a 3 PM cancellation slot, but I told her to hold off since I couldn't stay much longer. After waiting over an hour, I asked a different tech about the delay. Then Crystal blurted she had moved my appointment to 3 PM to include all services--something she NEVER communicated; which I pointed out to her, I asked to speak with a supervisor and continued waiting. We were finally taken to a room, and 15 minutes later (total of 1hr 15min LATER) , the doctor entered and accused *ME* of being disrespectful to her staff--which is completely FALSE. I believe the front staff member BLATANTLY LIED to cover her own condescending and unprofessional behavior. I was upfront with the doctor and encouraged her to review the cameras. As a business owner myself, I know you never put a customer on the defensive--especially when your feelings are hurt because someone called out poor service. That's a training issue, not mine. This experience was not only upsetting but also makes me question how much the doctors enable their staff's mediocrity. The lack of communication, professionalism, and customer service is evident from the moment you walk in. I stand by my word: !!! review the cameras!!! I was never disrespectful--not once.

I love that there's plenty of parking at the building where this location is at and the first hour is free with validation. I've never had issues when checking in, nor with any of the doctors or vet techs. Most recently was my second visit. I came by a little early and checked in. About 5 minutes after, a gentleman walked to the front door and was asking for help. He had a really sick dog and the tech and/or doctor were quick to come out and take control. Damn, just the whole scene was emotional. My wait time ended up being a little longer, which I completely understand there was an emergency going on. The techs were on it and made sure I was OK by checking in with me every so often. I'm not sure what had happened with that dog, but one of the techs eventually came out and started sanitizing the floors and the seat where the owner was waiting at. I'm happy they took extra precaution and making sure other animals don't get in contact with what the dog had. The poor baby came in and left a trail of drool, which was what was cleaned up. I eventually met with Dr. Harrington. She has a kind soul and was very gentle with my girl. I would come back to this location over and over again if time permits.

The majority of the staff is friendly and welcoming but my biggest pet peeve are places that dont answer their phones, the hold times are exorbitantly long (often over forty minutes. Understandable given the high influx but perhaps more staffing should be hired solely for phones), and it was quicker to show up in person without an appointment than having one. I often made an appointment but it seemed useless when I was left sitting in the waiting area for two to three hours on multiple occasions because the receptionist admitted to forgetting I was there or the medical assistants overlooked me. To their credit they were apologetic but in the moment when you're worried about your pet, waiting endlessly without any information or a reasonable amount of time doesnt make it any easier. There were also times when I was told I'd be contacted when my pet was ready for pickup but when the call never came I had to just show up and hope she was ready by the time they closed. My pet is also a recent shelter animal rescue and I felt like one of the doctors implied that my family was the reason for a scratch she had on her tummy that she would occasionally scratch at so that it wouldn't scab over and heal. I understand the vets concern for my dog and appreciate it to ane extent but even after I explained that she was a recent rescue and that her scratches were one of the reasons we'd brought her in along with her benign fatty tissues, he was a lot more curt and a little standoffish with us. Again I understand he was just concerned but I also sort of wish I'd been given the benefit of the doubt. If I really needed to, I'd come back here again but after a few of the mishaps mentioned above, I did seek out a different vet clinic that was a lot more organized and welcoming and also offered the same payment plans as this one.

The lobby and patient rooms smell fresh and clean in a very neutral way, without smelling either like animals or like too much cleaning product - comfortable for both animals and humans. There is typically plenty of parking during business hours, with a relatively quiet parking lot, so you can easily wait with your pet in the indoor seating or outside. Typically not crowded indoors, so if you have a scared or reactive pet, there is plenty of space in the large lobby / reception area to sit with your animal companion without them being too close to other patients. The pet scale in the reception area is flush with the floor, and because it's in the lobby, you can assist with your animal being weighed before they head into the back area with the staff - this is very helpful for scared and energetic pets who may need help sitting still. The staff are terrifically kind and helpful to both animals and humans. They are patient, they listen to your requests and feedback and help process your stress around a sick or injured animal. The doctors are skilled and thorough, and will help you through the complicated processes to make the best decisions for your animals. Payment and procedures are explained in advance with clear language and paper (and/or digital) estimates outlining cost and potential emergent medical choices. Reasonable prices. Ask about vaccine discount days! Best of all - they don't have an "emergency" fee for same-day or walk-in appointments! Even so, it's smart to call ahead if requesting a same-day appointment so you won't be waiting long with your stressed pet. Honestly, my dog loves the staff here.

He wasn't eating, was sleeping excessively, had severe dental pain, and even started having bloody diarrhea. As any pet parent can imagine, I was terrified. From the moment we arrived, Dr. Park and the entire staff treated Rufus with compassion, urgency, and genuine care. They took the time to thoroughly examine him, explain everything clearly, and answer all of my questions without making me feel rushed or pressured. What impressed me most was their honesty and integrity. They focused on what Rufus actually needed rather than recommending unnecessary tests or treatments. After speaking with other hospitals, I truly believe the cost elsewhere could have easily been several times higher. Bewell provided exceptional care at a fair price, which is rare to find these days. Most importantly, they treated Rufus like he was their own pet. That level of kindness and compassion meant the world to me during such a stressful time. To Dr. Park and the entire team: thank you for taking such amazing care of my baby. You turned one of the scariest days into one filled with hope and reassurance. If you're looking for a veterinarian who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, compassionate, and truly puts animals first, I cannot recommend Bewell Animal Hospital highly enough.

My brother in law had recently moved to Canada, and his dog fell sick while still in the U.S. I was trying to figure out how to get the dog safely to Canada given his medical condition, and I called several clinics for guidance. Most places required an appointment just to answer basic questions, which made the situation even more stressful. Dr. Nassi was kind enough to explain that if we were driving the dog to Canada, we did not need a medical certificate, which meant we did not have to wait for an appointment or go through a lengthy certification process. The clinic also reviewed and validated the rabies certificate over email without charging us. As someone who does not own a dog and was trying to handle this on behalf of my brother in law, I was feeling very overwhelmed. Dr. Nassi really helped us understand the right path forward and made it possible for us to get the dog back to his owner. I am extremely thankful for the kindness and support we received.
