    She already took her bows out! But she looks great!!

    I find that most groomers aren't " people "people". Not so at Karen's! The staff likes humans as much as dogs and are very caring and friendly. Our Maltese Terrier mix hates grooming, so we always put it off until the last minute. Karen's does an awesome job of cleaning her up and making her look great. Shout out to Angela who greeted us when we came in, she's one of the the reasons we will return ! Nina gives you four stars too!

    Perfect spa day for my pup'

    What a wonderful job Angela did on our little Sami. Shop is clean and friendly and my pup was ready within the time frame quoted. VERY reasonable prices too! I love supporting small business especially when they are this good. I'll be a lifetime client.

    We had a great experience! Everyone was nice, welcoming and made my grumpy old guy comfortable enough to get his nails clipped without a muzzle. He's shiny, happy and CLEAN!

    Love this place everyone is super on it! The owner and groomers all very nice and really pay attention to detail. Hapa needs his ear hair pulled to avoid infections and the groomer takes care of that for us, we also like Hapa to have a "cute little beard" after all beards are in right? They are totally into it. LOL ..Five stars

    I found this place before I moved to Carlsbad while we were on vacation and they were really great and sweet. But when we finally moved to Carlsbad last year, I tried out some groomers that are close to our place and I don't know what they did but my dog has been so scared and hard(er)to groom. So I called Angela again, and am very grateful for her and Yvonne for not giving up on him. This is the best groomers and I love how they really care about your pets. Thank you!

    It's the closest I'll get , The older woman who is the said her name is Karen

    See all

    Called for an apt and prices and the extremely rude lady on the phone was far from helpful. Must not care about new business.

    Alana has been an absolutely amazing with our labradoodle, Bo! From the very first grooming…read moresession, it was clear how much she genuinely loves what she does. Our dog is nervous around new people, but Alana's kindness, patience, and gentle approach put her at ease instantly. She's incredibly personable and takes the time to ensure our dog feels comfortable, which means the world to us. Prior to Bo, Alana groomed our elderly pugs and was always so patient with their complex needs. What really sets Alana apart (aside from her love of her job) is her expertise in a wide variety of pet styles and cuts. She knows exactly how to make Bo look her best. We love collaborating with her to come up with new ideas and, as a family, we always look forward to seeing the results. Never disappointed!! We're moving soon, and one of the things we'll miss most is Alana's amazing service. Honestly, if we could take her with us, we would!

    Alana loves dogs, and dogs love her. My two shepherds get pampered and fluffed and brushed all…read morewithout me lifting a finger. Shows up on time, does a GREAT job and charges what I feel is a very reasonable fee for someone coming to your house and caring for your pets. Alana has a fully self-contained grooming trailer - power, water, generator - the works. The inside is always clean and well maintained (well, TBH it's a little hairy once she finishes with my furballs)....and she is the consummate professional. Give PPS a try - you will become a repeat customer - just like I did. PS - quit doom-scrolling. Call Alana.

    Woofies is my favorite! When our groomer of 6 years (kiwis whole life) retired we were heartbroken…read moreand anxious about our journey finding a new groomer. I came across Woofies and from the first phone call to now (a year later) this place has been WONDERFUL. My first impression was they CARE. Caleb spoke to me on the phone for 30 minutes about all the questions I have and was empathetic regarding my anxiety about finding a new groomer. At the end of the call I booked an appointment and I'm so glad I did! Fast forward to almost a year later now that we've been using Woofies and they've always been incredibly accommodating, communicative and professional. We are so glad to have found kiwis grooming home! At the beginning we used Alexis who was phenomenal and kind but she moved so now we use Michelle and are SO thankful we have her as Kiwis groomer. Michelle pays close attention to detail and loves kiwi, you can tell she loves what she does. I recommend all my friends use Woofies! We don't like standard salons where you drop your pet off and pick up with how tiny kiwi is and she's used to mobile grooming so this was perfect for us! The convenience of them coming to your home and bringing our pet out to the van is PRICELESS.

    Welcome Woofie's of Carlsbad!…read more This family business provides a variety of pet services. We utilized their mobile grooming for not one, but two dogs. I scheduled the service with the owner over the phone who got me started on their booking platform. My female dog has a wash and go type of coat and she was booked for a sanitary trim. Our male dog has a thick coat and was scheduled for a full service treatment. Both came out looking their best thanks to Alexis. The entire process from beginning to end was smooth. The office followed up on our services after the session. You can just tell the team at Woofie's wants you to have a positive experience. This was our first time using a mobile grooming service. The mobile van was new, clean, and well stocked with supplies and treats. The dogs liked it and I think that is what really matters. Time to book our next session for the holidays... #WoofiesofCarlsbad #MobileGroomers #ADogsLife #YelpEliteNCSD
