I have a reactive cattle dog. I've brought him in once for a nail trim. The folks here treated him with care, respect, and a TON of effort and patience. I appreciate them so much and I am grateful for a successful nail trim. I did help a bit with the process which was I was very glad to considering my dog's difficulty level. read more

I couldn't be happier that I discovered Muddy Paws Grooming! As a new puppy parent, I was super anxious about my girl's first grooming experience -- but Jayme absolutely knocked it out of the park. She took such gentle, professional care of my pup and made the whole process feel effortless. What really blew me away was the personal touch: I received a virtual report detailing how my pup did, and even got the most adorable photo of her -- it's now proudly my phone's screensaver! This place is truly a hidden gem. You can tell they genuinely love what they do and treat your furry friend like one of their own. Highly recommend! read more

This is the best place that I have had my dog groomed at so far! His cut was perfect, he was silky smooth and smelled wonderfully. I know how hard it is for a groomer to work with my dog's coat, and how long it takes, so I am even that more appreciative of how lovely he turned out. :) I also really appreciated how the groomer discussed his cut and shampoo/ conditioner options with me prior to him being taken to the grooming area. I never felt rushed and Moose was happy too. Big thank you to Muddy Paws! read more

Extremely happy with their service, I apologize for not having pictures of the place :/ Highly recommend it, I was referred to them by a regular customer, and I'm beyond satisfied with their work, & professionalism! Usually we showered our dogs at home, but we had been very busy, therefore my dog was a messed & at Muddy Paws they took care of our Zeus , knowing my baby , I know they were patient & gentle with him, he came back extremely happy and handsome. They definitely gain a new customer! We went today 4/27/2023 & we are beyond grateful with the staff, I can tell they love their job, because they were so sweet to us and Zeus! Prices are very reasonable for all the work they do. There's parking in-front of the establishment. Ring the doorbell (for the safety of the dogs they help 1 dog at a time in the lobby) Make your appointment online. Bring your proof of vaccines. read more

Our 1 yr old Jack Russell, Levi does not like to sit still and they are able to do a great job with him despite his spunky, wiggle worm personality. They are always kind, professional and accommodating. read more

I have a 3 year old border collie mix who has long luxurious fur that ends up tangled in knots & every other place I've taken her for grooming has practically shaved her down all over. That was not the case this time! They agreed she needed some trimming, but I told them to do what they needed to keep her tangle free & comfortable. I was shocked when my pup with knots on her legs and behind her ears came back to me clean, soft & fluffier than ever before! Next time she'll probably need more of an all over cut to manage the mane but we'll definitely be back :) my girl is ~50 pounds. I dropped her off at 1:30pm & she was ready for pickup at 3:30. The 2 staff members I engaged with were warm & welcoming! Thank you!! read more

Took our babies to muddy paws for their first spa day there. Everyone there was so great. Zoey is an abused shelter dog and they took great care of her. She is very timid around strangers and she even jumped up for the girl to pet her as we were leaving. They were very accommodating too because of course I had to call and make sure she was doing ok. We will definitely be going here now on for all our grooming needs. read more

I 100% recommend this place for our fur babies spa day. They care so much for our fur baby. I inquired with them via text and they were already friendly and accommodating. I never felt rushed and you can already feel that they care about our four legged babies. It's our first time to bring Pedro here and they welcomed him like a baby, asked specifically what we want and they even noticed his beautiful lashes and reminded us if we want it saved. When we picked him up, they even informed us on how he was during the process, and we super appreciate that. So from now on, we will bring him there and it's an additional point that it is near our place. =) read more

If you are a pet owner who values both impeccable service and a commitment to your pet's wellbeing, I highly recommend experiencing Muddy Paws in Oakley for yourself.

This was my 2nd time taking my puppy Hiro to the groomers & they've always had awesome customer service! I had an appointment for late August, but I asked them to let me know if an earlier one opens up. I got a call back within the next 3 days that a slot opened up! I'm happy to have found a spot for my puppy :) read more

My bubs is so handsome thanks to the Muddy Paws team! Saying that I'm impressed doesn't do justice to how wonderful of a job they did to groom him! It was Obi's first ever grooming session. We've had such busy schedules that we've been doing small trims and clean ups on our own leading up to this moment. We have been trying to get him acclimated with baths and trims but we felt that it was the right time for the professionals to take over. We brush him every day to avoid any matting but his hair gotbso long that he definitely needed a cut. It was our first time so we were really looking for someone who could take care of our sweet boy and that we could establish a forever relationship with. They took care of everything I had asked for. They were super transparent about the matting which I had made sure to look up and read into prior to the visit so that I could understand what needed to be done to help properly and safely remove them. They trimmed his nails, cut his hair down to the size we had discussed and even accommodated the puppy cut around his face. I can't get over how cute Obi is with his new cut. He even smells absolutely amazing. We will for sure be back. Thank you so much for taking great care of my bubs! read more

I'm can't say enough great things about Muddy Paws. I brought my baby to them and they worked a miracle. He had matting on his ears pretty bad from his cone and although his ear fluff couldn't be saved he still looked amazing. I almost cried when I saw him because I was expecting the worst but to my happy surprise he not only looked super adorable but it was the best cut he's ever had. We found Kenobi's forever stylist. -On a side note you can really tell how much Kao cares about these pups. She didn't have time to bring him in but she still did and stayed late to help him and explained to me what to do and the type of coat he has. I really appreciated all the extra care. read more

We took the plunge by bringing our dog here just based off their Yelp reviews, and we couldn't be happier. First time bringing our dog here and we requested a deshedding service, Dusty came back to us looking like a dog model! Muddy Paws was more than courteous to set our expectations prior to our visit and made it clear as to what we needed, and what they needed. Kudos to Muddy Paws for also taking great precautions to protect themselves and their customers during this whole COVID-19 deal. Thank you Muddy Paws, you just got yourselves another customer! read more

I'm hesitant to bring my yorkie back for grooming, his last time there was very stressful for both of us. Instead of being there for his typical hour and a half, I came back around two hours later and he wasn't done for another hour. The young groomer was more interested in talking and laughing with the other staff. read more

Today was my first time here. They did an amazing job on my Zoey. I fully recommend this place. They get you in when your appointment is. You don't have to wait forever like other places. Zoey got a mud bath and her fur is silky smooth. So I fully and totally recommend this place. If there were 10 stars I would give it. read more

Just moved to Oakley and had to find a place for my mini Australian shepherd. Such a great experience here! The staff is responsive and attentive to all of your needs! My mini Aussie is sensitive to many people, and she had a bad experience with another groomer who cut her pretty badly. Muddy Paws took wonderful care of my dog and I am 100% going back for half-yearly grooming! The groomer helped me decide what to get for her as Aussie don't really need a full "shave". We decided on a contour cut with a trim on her tail. The price is great and the facility is clean. Glands are included if you request it, which we did! My dog was very happy and she looked super cute with her bows/pig tails. Thanks Muddy Paws for taking good care of my fur baby! read more

Amazing!!!!!! My dog all of three pounds is extremely anxious. He hadn't been groomed professionally in over two years. As a matter of fact, the last time he was groomed, we picked him up (different groomer) halfway groomed. I took him to Muddy Paws, and they exceeded my expectations by far. My dog is happy! I appreciate their patience. We will be returning. read more

I cannot express enough how happy my experience was here. My Pomeranian's cost was in bad shape. Like really bad (shame on me). They took the time to talk it through with me and we came up with a plan. They took their time with him and low and behold saved his beautiful coat. I'm actually shocked at how bad I let him get but they saved the day. He had never been groomed before at almost 2 so I was a bit apprehensive about the whole thing but when I picked him up he was as happy as can be! He walked in shaking and left beautiful and happy. I even got a text update and when I called they were happy to update me on how he was. All I can say is My guy will be a life long client moving forward. THANK YOU MUDDY PAWS! You saved the day! read more

I really wanted to give them a 5 star rating because the customer service was great and the people were awesome. Easy appointment process and no wait time in getting my pupper in. Grooming also took 1.5-2hrs which is pretty good. But they did nick his weenie and Appa was very much in pain because of it and had to take antibiotics bc of the swelling and irritation. Also, they didn't have much options in keeping dog hair length long. I wanted to keep his body fluffy but their razors can only do the hair showed in the photos as the longest, at least thats what the front desk stated. read more

I took my dog here for the first time the other day. He's a little nervous and they were so gentle and sweet to him, he felt super comfortable with everyone. The price was very reasonable. They washed and dried him, trimmed the long hairs he had that were out of place, trimmed his nails and gave him a cute little Halloween themed bandana when I picked him up. He smells great, he's super soft, and I couldn't be happier. I would definitely recommend this place for sure. All staff members I met were very polite and helpful, very informative as well with recommendations for care and behavior. My dog would be happy to return! read more

I have been taking our dog Lucy to Muddy Paws for 3 years now. They are a local business that started in Oakley, but have now opened a second location in Livermore.They are the best in overall value, customer service, consistency and reliability. I have never had an issue with the grooming, the staff or my pets well being. They are super flexible and responsive to messages on their website. The owner Stephanie is super nice and all her employees look genuinely happy to be working with there. We have referred all our friends and family! Everyone has been happy! read more

UPDATE: I'm really sad to have to write this update but I feel that it wouldn't be right if I didn't as this would be something I'd like to know when looking at reviews and looking for a groomer. If you read far enough of my original review (below), I gave then 4 stars originally but have no choice but to change it to 2 stars. We found a cut on Dot, likely from shaving her down in that area hard enough--I've attached a picture. It's not small at all and I understand that things happen but it would have been nice to have this communicated at pick up rather than us having to find it ourselves. I'm very upset that I'm now back on the hunt for a new groomer :( Overdue post here! I usually wait some time to write a review anyway. My family moved to Brentwood in 2013 and since then have added two family members, Dip and Dot. We've taken them to SOOO many different groomers over these years--even spanning out to Pittsburg. All I can say is, I wish we found this place sooner!! They do an amazing job with Dip and Dot, they get the cut right, they smell amazing and they even usually put bandanas on them which I think is just so adorable! I have to mention too that my family is even able to pick our dogs up by noon, if not a little bit after. Scheduling a grooming appointment is also SOOO easy. You can either call, which I have done before and they're very friendly, or you can text, which is usually what I do. They also send a reminder text the day before the grooming appointment. The only reason that I'm giving them 4 stars instead of 5 stars is because the pricing was pretty confusing for me. For context, Dip is a 24 pound Maltese/Lhasa Apso mix while Dot is a 10 pound Maltese--definitely thought that Dot would be cheaper but apparently she costs more to work on because of her size... I will definitely ask about this again, but that part didn't really make sense. Overall, amazing groomers!! Love them. read more

Today, I took my two babies to Muddy Paws in Livermore, next to I-580 Safeway. This was their first haircut, they are 5 months old and can be very wiggly and hyper. I was shocked when picking them up after their grooming appointment. As you can see from the photos attached, WOW! As their website says, "they treat the dog as their own" is so true. My puppies were so happy to be there and I had a hard time getting them to leave. The owner knows what she is doing and we are blessed to have the new location in Livermore. I am making this my only go-to dog spa. I am already booked for the second visit! Go by and check them out, you won't be sorry. By the way, I don't post 5 stars or nice comments on Yelp very often but the owner and team at Muddy Paws Grooming earned it today. read more

Took my dog Sugga she loved it here! They took the time to give her a full trim and full bath- Other groomers didn't take the time and she didn't smell fresh. The groomers were friendly and took their time to gentle assure her she would be ok. While it did cost more than the other grooming services, I didn't mind because they did an excellent job. Just wish they had later hours on weekends read more
