    I've been bringing my Dog here for years Amazing! They do am Amazing job with My Great Pyrenees which can be even more Challenging then other breeds there coat so thick plus there so big! I realized after I changed to another Vet I finally found out they had been correct as to there assumption suggestions and finally got to the right Vet to get correct diagnosis and get the right treatment so sometimes frustrating they are truly remarkable and have my dogs best! After I washed my own baby(dog avila) its super difficult and a Dog Groomers Jobs are very difficult so Great Job Thank You I Apreciate you and So does Avila

    I decided to take my moms dog in for a haircut, and wow.. just WOW. He has never looked this handsome and cute. You can tell the groomer Jazmin G. is a real artist of their craft! will definitely be recommending them to other people and I will continue to take my dogs to them!

    So, I'm a fish parent. Never thought I'd own a fish outside of the few goldfish I won at carnivals when I was a kid. But recently, I became fascinated with the pretty Betta (pronounced Be-Ta, not Bay-Ta) fish they had. After quite a bit of research and learning about aquarium maintenance we purchased the fish tank FIRST and allowed it several days to start the nitrogen cycle. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE - get the tank before the fish. It's incredibly critical for the health of your fish that you do this. It can take up to two weeks. Make sure to grab an API Master Kit to test your water to ensure the nitrogen cycle is complete. Once that's done, it's time to go fish shopping! I of course, went straight for the sad fish that wasn't swimming well. I thought, if he doesn't make it I can always get my money back after 14 days and he'll get to live out his golden years in a tank and not a cup. To my surprise he thrived and still doing well. The Petsmart folks were varied. All pleasant, some more knowledgeable than most. This location is especially convenient. COVID Info - In July 20202. - Signage mandating California mask policy in place and enforcing social distancing - Plenty of hand sani and wipes at door - All employees wearing masks - All patrons wearing masks and practicing social distancing.

    WHAT is this!?!? DO NOT get your animals groomed here. Literally botched my dog. I could have done a better job than this at home for free. They obviously don't know what they are doing and are NOT trained. $85 for this? LOL. What a joke. This person needs to be either re trained or fired. And under his left arm is pretty irritated too..

    Very friendly employees that love to talk pets! Adorable shelter cats for adoption. Sat, they have AM dog adoptions through Marley's Mutts. This is a newer store. Great location. The selection is amazing. Ok prices with a lot if clearance items. The most organized and cleanest Petsmart I have ever been in. Will come back with the pooch next time!

    Max got his first full cut with Jennifer

    We love this location. Not only is it convenient but the staff is friendly and always helpful. We have been taking our yorkie puppy to see Jennifer in the grooming salon for a little over a month now. That's right I said a month. Max was super nervous when it came to being groomed because his nails got cut to short one time at the vet. Jennifer was so patient and loving during this process. We have Max on a strict ever 2 week schedule with Jennifer to get him desensitized. Each visit she was able to get Max to tolerate a little more. By the 3rd visit she was able to give him a full cut! Max loves Jennifer and is always so happy to see her even when we are just there to buy food! I highly recommend Jennifer if you have a nervous pup. We recently started Puppy Training with Kiarra which has been super helpful and informative. She is so good with Max.

    They have a sign stating there is a mask requirement but it is not enforced. Poor management.

    I had a very disappointing experience with Paws and Sniffs. I booked my 16-week-old puppy's first…read moregrooming appointment and was quoted $150. Then, about an hour before my scheduled appointment, it was canceled. The owner did offer to reschedule for the following morning. However, after the cancellation, I called several other groomers in the area to find a new appointment as we were not available the next day. Every groomer I spoke with explained that a puppy's first grooming is typically a gentle introductory visit with a face, feet, sanitary trim, and nail trim rather than a full groom. The quotes I received from multiple businesses ranged from $55 to $75 for that type of appointment. Based on that, I felt that the $150 quote I received was excessive, especially since the owner did not explain that a puppy's first visit is usually handled differently. I understand that businesses set their own prices, but I wanted to share my experience so other puppy owners can compare services and pricing before booking. UPDATE AFTER READING THEIR REPLY: I would like to update my review because the company's response does not accurately reflect what happened. From the beginning, I told them my puppy's age and approximate weight and sent pictures. I was initially quoted $200, but after seeing the pics, the price was reduced to $150. They also knew this would be our puppy's first grooming appointment. We never specifically requested a haircut. We asked to schedule our puppy's first grooming appointment. Then we were asked to send photos of what we wanted, so we did. At no point were we told that a first-time puppy appointment should not include a haircut or that they would not recommend one. As first-time puppy owners, we relied on their professional expertise. Since they knew this was our puppy's first grooming, we would have expected them to explain what was or wasn't appropriate. Instead, after receiving the photos, they confirmed the $150 price. I have screenshots of our text messages documenting this. After this experience, I contacted at least ten other groomers, and not one of them was willing to schedule a full haircut for a puppy's first grooming appointment. Instead they explained how they handle first time grooming appts. I also have screenshots of our text messages showing that we were never told there was a "medical emergency." Instead, we were told the owner woke up with pain and needed to reschedule the appointment for the following day. This cancellation came only one hour before our scheduled appointment. Which was to our benefit as we would have possibly traumatized our puppy with a full haircut when she wasn't mature enough for one.

The top things we look for when continuing to use a groomer is, low stress, not disoriented, ( believe it or not, a place in Bakersfield, gave our dog back as if she was given medication to calm her, without asking or informing us) NOT the case with Dee!! Other things we look at are, Obvious and obsessive cuts on the body, good nail clipping and filling, timing. And over all when your dog comes back to you happy and energetic, it makes it all worth it. Dee was also great to communicate with. She responded quick and a beautiful attitude once we met. Was flexible with our schedule, we did drive to her since we live in wasco but, due to her being flexible, we where able to schedule a trip to Bakersfield and get other errands done while the puppies got groomed. Will be recommending the whole family and friends to her. I look forward to our next appointment.

    I had no idea I could still leave a review!…read more I had many wondered experiences with Dee and my two pups. The last time I requested grooming services, I was ignored, don't know why. I had to seek another groomer. Unfortunately, the new groomer was in a camper with her own pets (maybe had fleas?) after grooming my pups had a bad case of fleas. Tried to treat them but they both had bad reactions to the treatment involving in one of them passing. Absolutely heartbroken! Will never trust a mobile groomer again,, especially since this was preventable!!!!

I hadn't left a review at the time because of how upsetting my experience was. I'll keep it short, my dog's nipple was cut and bleeding as if no guard was used on the clippers. I understand haircuts won't always be perfect, but her sanitary area was shaved too short and the overall cut was uneven. When I picked her up, I didn't see she was bleeding until I saw blood on her bed. After I notified the owner, she suggested that my dog did it to herself (even though she can't reach that nipple and she was wearing a cone when she got home) and then suggested that it looked like a hickey (extremely bizarre comment to make). I know my dog well and how well she does when she visits groomers. Every groomer before and after her visit at Going Mutts has always said she is well behaved and have no issues while cutting her hair. Anyway, Going Mutts ended up refunding me for the grooming which I appreciated.
