This review is LOOONG overdue! I Love this place! More importantly MY DOG loves this place! The service is amazing they really love your pooch and they do exactly what you ask and their work is impeccable. The ladies are delightful it smells clean it is clean and the price is fair and honest! What else can you ask for! Oh they get me in even though I always call when it's overdue! Frankie will always go to Pet DeLite ! Check them out you won't be disappointed!

This is Lilly the day of her grooming.  Note she can't sit down and her little innocent face says it all.

Pet de Lite caused my 8 month old Shih Tzu to have PTSD. This was my first experience with them and I'll never go back! On July 22, 2023 I took her in to be groomed. I asked for the "puppy cut" , a very common cut for Shih Tzu's. Upon returning 4 hrs later to pick her up I was speechless when she came out! She had been scalped! Not only was her hair way to short I discovered later in the day they had scalped her bottom and vulva area. This caused Lilly, my puppy server pain for about a week plus. Her vulva was severely swollen, She couldn't sit, licked herself nonstop, refused to walk, play or eat. I could barley touch her. To this day I'm still working with Lilly to regain her trust. Moving forward getting her groomed isn't going to be easy. I know she's was traumatized, she has anxiety when I leave and has bouts of depression. She hasn't been the same since took her here. I demanded a full refund, which they gave, but it cannot undo the physiological damage done to Miss Lilly.

Great service! Any and all of the groomers I've encountered here are all so friendly despite how horrible my maltipoo behaves(even with her prescribed tranquilizer ‍). They are so patient and they all do a great job. They've also taken the suggested health precautions with COVID to keep them and their customers safe. Also, reasonably priced as well! Highly recommend!

Every time i take my dog Carmelo he comes home looking good and smelling clean. The scent lasts for weeks and he don't be scared or feeling weird when i pick him up. They put a cute bandanna on his neck and he is tremendously happy lol

The before and after with my puppy! They made him so handsome!!!

I just got a new maltapoo and his hair was a bit out of control. I called them up and they gave me the best quote for his shave/shampoo/nail trim. Not to mention they were able to do same day cuts (all the other places had a one to three day appointment wait)-this works well because I'm very impatient. The whole staff were super friendly, they made sure I took a tour of the facility and was comfortable leaving my puppy there. When I picked him up later that afternoon he looked FABULOUS!!! They did everything as I had asked, plus he was afraid of the sound of the clippers so the ladies used shears around his face so that he wouldn't freak out too much. Not to mention the owner gave me a deal since it was my first time. He was a happy camper and so am I. I'm definitely going to be a regular here, the ladies were great, the facililty was clean and the dogs are given plenty of TLC. I would recommend this place to everyone.

The lovely job those wonderful women did on my little guy, Arlo!

I've had my Mini Aussie, Arlo, for about almost six months now, and have been taking him randomly to different large chain groomers once a month. The last we decided on was the PetCo in Dale City, and only because they did a sugar cookie shampoo. But, for over $50 for a 11lb dog, I decided to look around. Now, I am not saying Pet De Lite was much cheaper (it was under $50, tho), but it was MUCH BETTER!!!!!!!! Arlo used to walk out of PetCo SHAKING, and whimpering. And the whole time, their groomers would say he was well behaved. Arlo walked out of the back room at Pet De Lite just as wiggly, happy and playful as ever! And everyone there seemed to love him! When I initially walked in, no one was in the front office area, and I looked at the walls for a minute before I decided to stick my head back through the door to the grooming area, and I was completely surprised -- it was spa -like!! With water features, dog art work, and very soothing colors. It was incredibly clean, and smelled CLEAN - not antiseptic. All and all, it was a GREAT experience, for my wallet, and most importantly, for Arlo. I've never seen him so fluffy, cute, and happy. We will definitely be back in a month, and for every month I live here. Thank you, Pet De Lite!

See all

I wanted to share my very positive recent experience with Ali Campbell at The Paw Wash. I have two…read moredogs: an 8 year old mini schnauzer, that has been process groomed for years & a 2 year old 50 lb Bernedoodle that has been professionally groomed once. She doesn't like loud noises to include electric razors and blow dryers. I have tried to groom them myself but keeping them still is definitely not easy. Finding someone to groom a 50 lb dog is also not easy! I decided to try Ali's at home dog grooming service because it's super convenient (located here in Lorton) and she works one dog at a time, reducing the stress the dogs feel about being in a strange, loud place. I made an appointment for the big dog as a test run. I can't do her myself. It was easy to make an appointment. Drop off was convenient. Ali was super friendly and the dog was super happy. She's a good judge of character. I came back about 2 hours later to a clean and adorable and still happy dog. Brought her home and all agreed that Ali had done a great job. Loved the grooming report I received on the experience, including the attached picture s. Made the appointment for the little dog and had an even better experience. I highly recommend the Paw Wash!

Danielle is friendly and reliable and most of all - she does a great job. We always go with a short cut on our Maltese for ease of maintenance and Danielle's cuts are very consistent. Our dog always looks the same, which is a big positive in my book. Other groomers have delivered inconsistent looks when we simply wanted the same haircut. The convenience of the mobile service is hard to beat too. It's a little more expensive than service at a brick and mortar building, but it's worth it in my opinion. You won't regret going with this business for your furry friend's grooming needs. Highly recommended. ***In the post-grooming photo of my pup, he'd had a recent vet procedure that resulted in a stitch in his forehead and a partially shaved right leg. Danielle was careful and attentive***

Okay, obviously having the grooming van come to your door is incredibly convenient. What you might…read morenot realize, it minimizes a huge amount of stress! Most groomers do multiple dogs at once--and your dog sits in a cage in the meantime. Not great. Maria is working with just one dog --yours--from start to finish--so it's way less stress for your baby. I should also mention that Maria is the best, kindest, most competent dog groomer in the DMV. Full stop. If you have a small dog, don't even *think* about going anywhere else! Not only will your furbaby be gorgeously groomed, you will have the peace of mind of knowing he is being cared for by 1) someone who genuinely loves dogs, and 2) is also incredibly talented and experienced. I don't trust my little guy with anyone but Maria.

I would never come back to this establishment, and if you…read morecare for your dog I'd suggest finding another groomer who will treat not only you (a paying customer) WITH RESPECT but also your pet whom you entrust with them to care for. I simply asked a question to check in on my dog to see if they were done and the lady at the front desk was so rude in responding. Even when I dropped off my pet, she wasn't welcoming nor was she kind in the way she spoke. She was even telling me what to do with my own dog. Such a mean and unpleasant person to deal with. I should've took this as a sign to just leave. Basic human interaction includes being polite and this place can't even offer that. Front desk receptionist needs to learn manners. Also as other reviews mention, their dog has come back with scratches and cuts on their skin. Manners aside, at least take care of the dog. Would never recommend this place to anyone. Save your money and go elsewhere to a grooming establishment with better customer service and genuine care for your pet.

They are all careful and take their time and truly care about your dog. We have had Kate many times and she has gone out of her way to make sure he is groomed so perfectly and truly cares about my dog. Noone has ever gone so above and beyond in caring for our dog!! In fact, Kate even found an ear infection and we promptly took him to the vet. Thank you! Also, Anna is just awesome. She is highly responsive and always makes making appointments easy and truly cares about having the best possible outcome for our dog. In fact, she calls back immediately and is so pleasant to deal with and so accommodating!!! I have no idea why some people took it upon themselves to leave a negative review. Quite frankly, you are wrong. The customer is NOT always right and I suggest you learn manners and how to treat people. They are not subservient to you because you pay them. Thank you Aussie Pets!!!! You rock and I am thrilled with how well you've treated my little dog. Note to those complaining : You are wrong, misguided and looking for an outlet to vent your frustrations Note to Aussie Pets: Thank you for being the BEST groomer ever!!!! Kathy from Alexandria
