If there are staffing challenges or delays, it would be helpful to let customers know upfront and give them the option to reschedule or adjust their plans accordingly. I had a grooming appointment for my dog at 1:00 PM on 8/4. Normally, the service takes about 1.5 hours, so when I hadn't received a call by 3:00 PM, I stopped by Dirty Dog to check in. I was told they were short a groomer and it would be another 45 minutes. I returned home and received a call at 3:56 PM saying my dog would be ready in 10 minutes. However, when I arrived, my dog was still not ready. I spoke with the manager, who explained they were short-staffed due to a personal emergency. While I understand things happen, there was no apology or effort to acknowledge the inconvenience. Initially, she said she couldn't assist because she had to handle payroll, which added to the frustration. Eventually, she offered a 10% credit, which I appreciated, but the overall experience left me disappointed. With better communication and a little more empathy, this could've been a much more positive experience.

The experience was very unprofessional. There was no greeting before I was told how horribly matted…read moremy 2.94-pound Yorkie supposedly was. I was told he was matted and would be "traumatized" because the grooming would take forever. He's only 4 months old but he's been giving a puppy cut and a nail trim before and everyone says how sweet he is. I typically use a comb on him, but after leaving I purchased a slicker brush and was able to comb him out myself in less than five minutes in the parking lot, he didn't make a sound. There was already an additional $15 charge for being late, which I understood, but I had also read previous reviews mentioning that this groomer often insists dogs are matted in order to add fees. Considering I have dreadlocks and also own a cocker spaniel, I'm familiar with what matting actually looks like. If higher pricing is needed, it would be more transparent to simply adjust rates, especially since prices are not listed on the website.

I have been going to All About Pets Grooming for many years, and I highly recommend them. I believe…read morethat they are the best in Raleigh - family owned with reasonable prices and excellent service. They are also easy to find, centrally located in North Raleigh. It's important to know that they are frequently booked out 4-6 weeks. So when you make an appointment, allow some time to see them because they are very popular. And well worth the wait! I have two dogs (a Cavachon and an English Cocker Spaniel) which require frequent grooming. I am very particular about their grooming and they always look great! I also appreciate the fact that my pups love to go there which gives me great peace of mind. All About Pets is owned by Joyce who is dedicated to providing the best care for your dog. Joyce is highly experienced, detail oriented, very kind and truly cares about you and your dog. She keeps thorough and accurate records about each detail of your dog's grooming. Each grooming session is custom made just for your dog. The groomers are excellent, too - very thorough and experienced. They also provide detailed report cards summarizing each visit. They provide ear cleaning, expression of anal glands, nail grinding and de-matting during each visit. I like the fact that my dogs have the same groomer for each visit which maintains consistency. You can also drop off supplies there to support local dog shelters. I am very grateful to Joyce and her groomers for the wonderful care that they provide. Always a great experience for me and my dogs!

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING!!! I made an appointment for 9am with Mary and she did such an excellent job with Buttercup. Over the phone she had asked what type of cut we're looking for and it's exactly what I asked for! Buttercup as well was very open with Mary even when I arrived to pick her up. My baby smells, looks, and (I bet) feels so good! Price wise as well it's very reasonable and time management is handled in a fashionably order. Overall, it took about 2 hours! Definitely recommend.

Well it went downhill from there. First red flag was a cancellation last minute - I get it we all get sick but same day was a little late. Then they were so rude when we did pick ups and drop offs. Because of this cancellation we had to go at three different times for each dog - no problem we don't live far but it was a rude welcoming from the owner each time. Then our last visit with our older golden retriever who I told specifically not to cut and was prone to ear infections so keep her head dry - they couldn't dry her head AND she was cut - not well and super choppy. Then they wanted to charge me for cutting her - "he has to pay his employee for the cut" even though he was told she was not to be cut. I'm upset with how the work was and how we were treated. So disappointed- usually don't write bad reviews but be warned and stay away. Plus spent a ton of money - they should have wanted to keep the customer.

Initially we had 2, and got 2 more from the breeder in Virginia for my mom when she was getting treated for Cancer because they comforted her. When she passed in 2020, we took them back because they are a lot for my Dad as he travels a lot. For the last 5 years we got them groomed at Top Notch Pet Spa. The price was pretty standard. Around $200-250 for all 4. When Top Notch changed management and the groomers went to different places we had to find alternative arrangements. We tried different groomers but ultimately tracked down the ladies that had been doing our poodles since 2018. Now, I spoke to the manager at Earthwise in Downtown Wake Forest. I told him we would give them a try but he couldn't get us on the schedule for a couple weeks. $288 ($72 each was the price we agreed upon. It was a bit higher than we had paid but we thought since it was one of the groomers that was familiar with our dogs (& we didn't have to drive all the way to Fuqua Varina) it would be ok. When I go to pick up the dogs he says the total will be $390! Talk about a bait and switch. The reason they gave us was the dogs had "extra matting (knotted hair)". But we didn't receive a heads up call, an ask to approve the extra cost - nothing. This was our first, and last time at this place. It's really disappointing too because after 5 years this is the most we have ever paid for grooming. The same dogs. Same groomers. Different pet salon. Warning to all Poodle/Dog owners out there. Not everyone wants your business or cares about customer service. Earthwise in Wake Forest did us dirty!
