I was nervous taking my dog Gunnar in for his first grooming appointment, but he needed it badly. I had looked for recommendations on my local Facebook group and Cassandra responded to me. So glad she did! They took such great care of my pup, made him so comfortable that by the end they told me he was falling asleep. They also worked with me to give him the look I really wanted in a way that was safe for his coat! I highly recommend My Dog's Spot and Gunnar and I both can't wait to come back in six weeks! read more

We have been taking our senior dog for regular grooming with My Dogs Spot for over a year. Services were fine until they missed trimming one nail which grew into a circle and was digging into her paw. We took her in to have the one nail clipped. The owner of the service handled the small task. She was so rough and continued to tug and swear at our dog. The other groomers have been fine. This event soured our relationship with My Dogs Spot. Sorry gang you will no longer trim our little girl. read more

Never taking my dog here again. My one year old Pomeranian and I took him for a bath and trim and he came back with a bath and a brush and then I was charged $80 for a haircut that never happened. Make sure you get your services in writing before dropping your animal. My dog His ears are still overdrawn and never saw scissors. He still had knots in his behind hair, I asked for his anus if they could clear some of the hair to make it easier for when he goes number two, so it doesn't get caught in his hair and that didn't happen! And on top of that, he had a gnat behind his ear , the groomer was some tall, older lady with red hair , I can't remember her name? She was the one who groomed him, said she could work the knot out and he comes back with half a bald spot! I told her I wanted him to be shaped , a rounded even cut and make him look like a Pomeranian, and make all the hairs even, she didn't even touch my dog! Please look around and find other groomers, this place isn't what it used to be. I used to take my dogs here and I can't remember the groomers name who I used to bring them to but that was back in 2011 2012 and she's gone! And this place downhill from then. I don't know how this place is still open but I would think twice about taking your dogs here. From what I'm seeing , is, they're very rough with your animals. And it's really concerning? What did they do to my dog while he was in their care? What did they do to him that I didn't see? Obviously, nothing is he looks like shit! And he's been limping that I have noticed ever since we came home on and off so? So if you want a shitty grooming job, and you want to pay top dollar for it. This is the place to go!, read more

This is really long.... I want to start this off with, i was going to chalk this up as a giant learning lesson and letting it go. But as the days go on, i just wouldn't be able to stand myself if this happened to anyone else. I took my 2 Great Pyrenees to a local groomer on Friday 3/31. I have been going to her for a few years. She even noticed something was going on with my husky weeks before she passed, that the vet overlooked. So i felt i had a relationship with this business. I haven't been to her for a service in a little over a year due to just in general life busyness and doing at home care. I wanted to get them in for a deep shedding and some sanitary trimming. I dropped them off around 1pm, they told me it would take till 5/6. The last time i went, i paid $100 for my GP and $85 for my husky to do a deep shedding back then. So i ASSUMED that it would be around $100-120 each for both due to that being the pervious price range - as NO pricing was discussed or displayed at this time of drop off. No pricing was listed on their IG/FB page and no business website either. Which I should have taken as a sign. So i get a mid service call saying my younger GP( a yr old and has never seen a groomer), saying her "puppy fur" was never deshedded correctly and it's matted at her skin. I brushed her weekly and never noticed this but, she's the pro so i listened. She told me the dog needed to be fully shaved to start over. She needed permission to do this. I was in totally shocked. I asked if there will be any long term issues with her fur growing back and she said, there shouldn't be but they couldn't say yes or no. I trusted her and said, if you think that's the only best option, i trust you. Minutes later, i pop onto Google and see that, that's the worst thing you can do for a double coated dog. So i start to panic, call her vet and who was modified that the groomer would even suggest this and she's never heard of this happening before. I immediately get off the phone, call them back around 20 min later and it was too late, they were almost done. I go to pick them up a short time later. I arrived with my kids, go in, the groomer states there was literally nothing she could do to prevent this from happening. I told her what i read and what the vet told me and she brushed it off as if she didnt hear me and walked away. So I'm standing at the counter, kids yelling from the back of the car to bring the dogs out, the employee says, should i wait to bring the dogs out until she pays? Which at the moment kinda sounded weird but i didn't think too much of it. I hand her my card and she says $450. In complete shock, my dogs come running out, i see my shaved dog, kids are still yelling and there was so much going on, i was just flustered in shock. I sign the slip which was my BIGGEST mistake and walked out. On the drive home i realized what just happened, i called to talk to the owner and tell her how i felt like i was just taken advantage of but they were gone for the day, so i left a voicemail. I get a call the next morning from the owner. I tell her my side, how I've paid Xxxx for previous appts with her, i assumed it was the same since there was no talk of pricing or any posted( AGAIN GIANT MISTAKE ON MY PART), how I'd appreciate it if she would refund a percentage to show she hears the issues from a loyal customer and understands the whole situation. She tells me this whole story of inflation, which I agree and tell her i don't want a full refund, just something closer to what i was paying before. I even mentioned "Even $50, $75, $100 refund to just show you did not tell me a price and there was a huge malfunction within this service". She then tells me she can't and she wishes there was something else she could do that's not money. I asked what her suggestion was as I'm open to getting this fixed. She says " i dont know, maybe I'll search on Facebook on what to do if someone doesn't like your grooming service. " I said, so then should I stop my transaction and take this up with my bank? She replies with, "I'll then sue you for 3x the amount plus wages lost." At that moment, i knew she was someone who has done this before to other customers and there was no reasoning with her. I ended it shortly after that and wished her luck. As that day ended, the back of my dogs ears became swollen as she saved so close to the skin, it's now as of today, infected. She has bruising on her nipples which wasn't there before and all these random sore spots. Yes, i should have had pricing before hand, i shouldn't have let them shave her and most of all, never let her swipe my card/sign it. Giant learning lesson 100%% I'm just hope this never happens to anyone else that goes to her. I know have to take her to the vet to be checked over with her sores all over her body. Happy to post pictures if this review will let me. read more

Very reasonable prices and excellent service. I trust them with my baby girl. They are very gentle with her, even though she is spoiled!

We took our puppy in for a grooming/bath etc. and our friend recommended this shop. First of all my mother doesn't speak well English and the worker informed her she would "do her best" to bath and groom him. I'm not sure if they offer bathing? But she did not give him a bath and on top of that she shaved way to much off the sides! Puppies need their fur and she obviously did not realize he's only 2 months. Their May have been communication issues but if you explain your business products like grooming styles/bathing/nail cutting etc. their wouldn't be issues like this.

This is my favorite spot in Lincoln for dog grooming. We took our late dog, Champ, here and he just loved it. His groomer called him a doll because they had the best time together. FYI- Champ was a 90 pound German Shepherd. I also took my Maltipoo here, his name Is Luka and he's very critical, but My Dog Spot was win for little Luka Duka. read more

I got charged with a $10 handling fee for my 5 pound dog She was "chasing blood" SHE IS 5 POUNDS and does not harm anyone.

We take our two mini dachshunds to My Dog Spot to have their nails trimmed and filed. The entire staff is always very kind, gentle caring to my girls. They know how to calm them down before the treatment, and always ask me if it is okay if they have a treat. The workplace is very clean and organized. I highly recommend My Dog Spot for your dog grooming needs. read more

Ill keep it short, if you really love your pet, for your dogs sake, please dont take them to My Dog Spot in Lincoln CA, if you must dont allow Tina the owner to handle your Fur Baby. Secondly, she cant follow my instructions on how to style my pet, not even in writing! My dog was so afraid of her, shame on me for making him go with her again. My fault for trying to give the salon the benefit of doubt! read more

This place is amazing! They are great at handling my very nervous dog. I get his nails trimmed here whenever I'm in Lincoln:)

Kayla is so sweet and excellent with my Papillon .. highly recommended!! Shop is very clean. Staff is very professional!! read more

I love the ladies here. They always take such good care of my corgi girl!!!! Great attitudes and just really care about the animals!!

I have a shih tzu and both my husband and I are not 'show dog people". We like to keep his hair "longerish" but nothing like you see on TV at the dog shows... oh heavens! So when it is time to go to the groomers Wicket (our little guy) has a few mats (and I do brush and bath him weekly myself... I think I had to throw that in b/c I was feeling guilty! HAHA) Every time we go to a groomer the same thing happens... we tell them we understand he has mats and know that you will probably have to cut his hair (AKA shave) him shorter than we like. We ask them to please keep his face round and not cut it in towards his jowls so he ends up looking like that flying dog Falcor from the Neverending Story. But... when we pick him up, he looks 10 pounds lighter and I want to hop on his little back and fly away with my fist in the air so the " the nothing" won't get me. My husband is way more critical than I am when it comes to the groomer too but would never say anything. So... this time began the same as the others. Always off to a good start. The place is SUPER cute. I would love to stay there for a day. It is clean and very inviting. A few hours go by and I get a call from my husband... he is almost yelling at me (IN A GOOD WAY). We knew Wicket had some bad mats going into this visit so we were not expecting anything short of a buzz cut. The call I received was an overwhelming RAVE review of how amazing our dog looked. The groomer took the time to brush out his mats, trim his hair, and trim is face exactly the way we ask. I got off the phone with him and called the groomer myself and thanked them as they must have done an outstanding job as my husband just called and literally yelled at me about how amazing MY DOG SPOT is!!!! When I got home I was a bit surprised as this was the best grooming job our dog has ever received. I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend My Dog Spot. Not only do they do an outstanding job but the whole shop is just adorable and is like a day spa for your most loved pet! read more

My dog has been groomed by both Nicole and Samantha here. I love both of them and encourage you to check them out for your dog. I have a labradoodle with skin issues and allergies who needs regular grooming. You can just tell that Nicole and Samantha are both dog lovers. They are gentle and kind. Both do a great job and I've never had any complaints. Oskar comes back smelling sweet, until he rolls in goose poop again.... dogs... I like to bring a picture of Oskar groomed the way I like him with his wide mohawk and they do a great job of matching. They keep records so it's easy to ask for a repeat of the previous service. This'll be my dog's spot for sure! read more

This is by far the best place to take your dog for grooming. We have a very spoiled Labrador and he loves going there. They are friendly and accommodating. We love the bandanna he comes home with too. Thanks for all you do. read more

This is the only place I will bring my dog! I bring my German Shepherd here to Kayla because she's the only groomer he seems to like. Which is a big deal. He has anxiety and she knows how to handle him and he always comes back smelling so good. Thanks Kayla you're the best! read more

Great service. I was really worried about sending my poto to a groomer . Candance reassured me he will be fine. If poto could talk I know he would say please more . He came home with a perfect hair cut and was so fresh and clean. I will only take him there now it was well worth by the drive . read more

Just picked up my beautiful golden retriever. They had her completely groomed and out the door in three hours. She looks live she is heading to the Westminster Dog Show, with the perfect cut and smelling like fresh air. My girl could not be holding her tail any higher - she knows she looks good! Thanks read more

We visited My Dog's Spot for the first time today. Our two pugs both got baths which included shampoo, conditioner, blow dry, brush out, nail trimming & filing, ear cleaning and anal gland expression. We are more than satisfied and happy with their service. The pugs came back to us smelling fresh and looking cute with a bandana and bow. They even got sent home with treats. We will definitely be returning to My Dog's Spot and highly recommend them. read more

I waited a day to write this review as I wanted to ensure it was written not "in the heat of the moment" but with a clear heart/mind. We took our 6 month old puppy in for his first grooming at My Dog Spot and had a pretty horrible first experience. At drop off everything seemed fine. Staff was friendly and informed me that it typically takes around 2 hours but since this was my puppy's first time at the groomers it could take up to 3 hours. Once they were done they'd give me a call to come pick him up. Sounds great. Two hours pass, three hours pass, no call. When it was going on four hours since I dropped him off I gave them a call, no answer. Call again and they pick up only to inform me that my puppy has not yet been trimmed as they were running behind and to expect at least another hour! The woman whom I believe is the owner didn't seem the least bit apologetic but told me not to worry my puppy was just sleeping. I dropped my puppy off at 12:30pm and he wasn't ready for pick up until almost 6:30pm! I can understand getting behind but have the professionalism to call your customers so they're aware. At pick-up the groomer apologized for the "delay" while the owner simply asked for payment. The groomer also informs me that my pup might shake his head or scratch his ears a bit since they cleaned them. I would have never written this review if things had ended there but things got much worse. Once home my poor puppy drank two whole bowls of water WITHIN minutes!!! Leading me to believe that they did not offer him water the entire time he was in their care. He has never drank that much at one time, even after a run or walk. I felt so bad for him! My puppy then proceeded to shake his head as the groomer mentioned for the rest of the evening. Shaking led to scratching, scratching led to yelping in pain. By the next day it was pretty clear the pup had an ear infection. As you can imagine after a $300 vet bill I'm beyond upset. To be fair, I have since learned that ear infections are common in long eared dogs. However, my vet said typically groomers put an antibacterial cream in the dogs ear to prevent bacterial infections. I don't know if the groomer did this nor do I care as I will not be returning nor recommending My Dog Spot to anyone. The accumulation of issue after issue leads us with no faith in their ability to care for pets. Sadly the whole experience has left us pretty traumatized. read more

We've tried a few different places around town and this is our go to place now. The staff is always really friendly and do a great job on their cuts, just short enough, especially for summer. We have two dogs that are Havanese mix, that get a full grooming when brought in. One of them has sensitive skin, so we request sensitive/itch shampoo for her. She never seems to scratch too much after. read more

I have taken my dog to other places in the past and every time the cut wasn't exactly what I wanted. A friend referred me here and I went in hoping that they could get it right. The very first visit and my dog looked great! Tina grooms my dog Henry and she is awesome!!! It's also nice that they do free face trims in between visits because my little guy needs it! I love this place so much that I referred my sister in law. read more

My Dog's Spot - Henry - Pet Groomers Near Me - Lincoln, California

Samantha, Nicole, all the ladies at this doggie day spa are amazing! I highly recommend this business to all furr baby owers!!

My dog has been groomed by this establishment for 4 years (before the new owners) and everything has been fantastic up until now. Debbie my pups groomer has always paid special attention to him since he's so small and skittish. He always comes home clean and happy with a fresh hair cut. The other groomers are always welcoming and sweet. However the owner has the most unprofessional approach to clients and employees I have ever experienced. When you walk in it seems like her groomers are scared to say anything or do anything that she would feel is out of line when she is around. They keep their heads down trying not to interact with anyone other than work on the current task they have been given. During the most recent visited had the owner approached my mother in the most confrontational manner when bringing my dog in and picking him up. Upon arrival the owner commented on my mother's attire and started to insult her for the choice of football team she represented that day. She yelled at her workers asking if anyone knew about my dogs appointment and my dogs groomer came forward saying he had one scheduled with her today. My mother said nothing and dropped my pup off for a few hours before pick up. While picking him up she acted as if she hadn't seen my mother only 3 hours previous, again yelling at her employees to find my dog. The owner got my dog on his leash and dragged him to the front of the store. My pup only weighs about 5 pounds but you could hear him gagging because of his collar. My mom immediately asked that she release him and his groomer to continue to bring him to her. We let the establishment know he will never be back because of how poorly the owner conducts business. I have never experienced such bad customer service. read more

I too, used to rave about this place. I don't know if people have left or what, but I think the young man that helps the front seemed high. I have 2 dogs - one is huge and one is small. They SOMEHOW put the small dogs choke chain collar on the big dog and I had a HECK of a time getting it off - thought I might need to cut it off, but just barely managed to get her free. Just crappy service now. Don't recommend at all. read more

I have taken my dogs to My Dog Spot in the past and they have done a decent job. Took them back the third time and asked for Janet; She was very rude to me and admonished me for bringing in a tangled dog and directed the other groomer to send me on my way with both dogs. Don't recommend her even though the staff does. I let the manager know and she said she stands behind her groomers and seems to take their word over what the customer has to say. I am giving this place another chance before going to the other groomers in Lincoln. We shall see and I will revise my review if it's positive. read more

If you love your dog NEVER take them here! I brought my dog in early for a 10:00 appt. I called at 1:00 to be told sorry they groomers car broke down / can't get here. That means they let my dog sit in a cage for 3 1/2 hours and if I hadn't called who knows how long he would be locked up. At any point in that 3 1/2 hours (preferably the 1st hour) if they called I would come pick him up as I understand things happen. But now I will NEVER go back there and will tell everyone else not to as well. He is VERY traumatized and won't leave my side. To top it off they tried to give me the wrong dog. read more

Came to this place a while back with my pooch, and we were fairly impressed at the small little boutique/grooming salon. For a small space, they've got a handful of fun items for your pet. Clothes, collars, accessories, toys, etc. As a matter of fact, we came in looking for a birthday treat for a fellow dog friend. They also sell birthday cakes for dogs, which is perfect for those that don't want to bake their own homemade one. read more

I love this spot! They make my babies look great! Loyal customer!

The only groomer that did a great job here was Kayla, taking my dogs to Fashion Fo Paws now, they do a great job EVERY time.

We brought our pomeranians to My Dog's Spot late last year for the first time and we were amazed. Our dogs are 11 years old and have seen many different groomers but none had ever made their coats looks that great and the dogs didn't want to leave the cozy little sitting area. Somehow the groomers (Janet and not sure who groomed the other) managed to get every bit of undercoat out, give a slight trim and make our dogs look so sweet. We were immediate fans!!! Then we moved to Rocklin and hadn't had a chance to get grooming done..we finally got in last weekend. This time wasn't so great. Not sure what happened but the dogs still had a lot of undercoat - in fact it was flying all around the car as soon as they got in. The trim on the coat was not smooth and they really didn't look much different than when they got dropped off. It was really disappointing to have such a dramatic change in the service provided. There are a lot of groomers in Rocklin but we drove the dogs out to Lincoln (and waited an extra week to get in) just to have the same top-notch experience we had the first time. If you do decide to visit My Dog's Spot be sure to ask for Janet...you might have to wait an extra 3-4 weeks but it will be worth it. We on the other hand are going to take our chances looking for a new groomer that is closer to home. read more

Never ever take your dog here! As a supposed professional dog groomer, or anyone who works around animals should know that when a dog is scared (because what dog enjoys getting their nails clipped) that you should say things to them in a comforting tone of voice/pitch and try to make them feel as relaxed as possible. There is one lady there who has clipped my dog's nails multiple times before, and I've never received good vibes from her. She is very aggressive to my dog and barks at her to "pipe down!" and "oh stop!" Normally, I just brush it off because she gets the job done. This time I went in there and she tried to put a muzzle on my dog, which she resisted. While trying to force the muzzle on her, my dog falls off of the grooming table hanging by her neck. At this point, the groomer should have stopped. She continued to try and force the muzzle on my dog and she fell off the table a total of three times. The last time, she is hanging by her neck for what felt like an eternity but was probably around 5 seconds (still a long time to be hanging by your neck). I do not appreciate my dog being hung by a noose like a criminal in the 17th century. The lady finally stopped and told me she couldn't do it because my dog came at her. Well if someone hung me by the neck I most certainly would too! I am appalled that this groomer does not have quick judgement and reasoning skills that this wasn't going to work because my dog was too scared. You do not go in full force trying to man-handle a dog like that, they are only going to resist more because they are scared and their fight-or-flight impulse goes into action. I hope my baby doesn't have any neck trauma. I will be taking her to the vet to check it out. I will never bring my dog here again and tell everyone I know who loves their dogs the same. read more

Used this shop for 5 years Now under new ownership messed up or Schnauzer s cut Not going back

Horrible. I asked for them to shave my goldendoodles belly, trim the hair between her pads, and sanitary shave under her tail. They shaved skin off of her belly about the size of a quarter. They nicked skin between her pads, and they shaved skin off of her bum. I emailed them because they were not open at the time. Have not heard a thing back from them. And I really don't care. I will never go in there again. They obviously don't have a clue as to what they are doing or maybe they just don't care. read more
