    I have been taking my dog to PetSmart for grooming for a few months and was satisfied. The regular groomer has left, and the groomer that did my dog did a full consultation with me and then did the exact opposite of what I wanted. I selected the coat length I wanted, which was the second from the longest coat cut, and then she proceeded to almost shave her down. We had a conversation at length about my not wanting her coat too short because of it being cold outside. The only thing I was satisfied with was the tail cut, which was left long as I requested. The cut was uneven and scraggly in places where longer hair was missed. She looked very displeasing for our holiday pictures and I am looking for a new groomer right now. I also do not like the process for paying. I could not use the link they sent for payment on my phone (It never works), and I had to wait in line to get the payment paper from the grooming area, go wait in line at the cash register to pay, and then go back and wait in line in the grooming section again to pick up my dog. I had not even seen how she looked before I paid for the service, which I hated.

    Kim (the cashier) told me about the free food program and placed this sticker with the QR code on the bag so I can easily access it!

    This review is for the grooming department. This was my first and last time bringing my dog to this location. They have very little to no experience in grooming. I usually take my dog to the Petsmart in Alexandria but they were booked and since I live close to the Waldorf store, I thought to give them a chance. I wish I would have read all the nagative reviews first. I have a golden doodle and they shaved him way too close and uneven. They called me to ask if they could shave him because his hair was matted. I strictly informed them not to shave him because he was definitely not matted. We brushed him the night before. To my surprise when my daughter picked the dog up they had shaved him anyway. No bath, no blow dry. They cut his hair before shampooing and blowing drying him first. Hello a golden doodle has curly hair and it's difficult to get a decent cut without a wash and blowout first. I am very displeased and will never take my dog here again. Please take the nagative reviews serious and stay away. You will regret it!!!

    Didn't even get the eye crust from the corner of her eyes. Choppy trim around her face. This pic was taken the day of her grooming.

    It has what you need. The selection of fish can be limited at times. The people who work there are always pleasant.

    I booked with this groomer because her written communication looked very professional and so did…read moreher work, but the in-person experience told me it was Chat Gpt!. When you arrive, she meets you at the gate behind her house with a bonnet on her head without greeting you at all. Her plan is to take your dog and walk away unless you speak. The energy was so cold that I ended up speaking first because I felt uncomfortable. I almost canceled the appointment because something felt off, but I gave her the benefit of the doubt. I should've followed my instincts and left. She also charged a $30 matting fee, even though I didn't feel any matting myself--but I paid it without questioning. She texted me at 11 and informed me that he would be ready in an hour to an hour and a half but wait for the next message. I headed to her house and once I was parked I received the exit text. I never received the exit text until 1:20 PM . She claimed she sent it at 11:59, but it never delivered to my phone until I was outside of her house. As soon as the message reached me, I thought I was completely on time. Her own instructions say she has bad service so if she can have bad service other ppl can too. She informed me that I missed the grace period. I explained that the message had just come through. Her response was, "Did you not read the entire message?, I told her I thought after I received this message I had 30 mins but I was already outside of her house. After she saw I wasn't going to pay an additional late fee she just told me to meet her at the gate. This is exactly why a business with bad service should call--not rely on unreliable texting. When she handed me my dog, her face was angry and she still didn't speak, didn't greet me, and had an attitude. And what concerned me most was that my dog wasn't wagging his tail or acting happy afterward, which is not like him. If she treated me that rude, I can't help but wonder how badly she treated my pet. I was shocked at the way I was treated as a new customer. Between the lack of communication, the rigid rules, the attitude, and the fees on fees. I said never again. I prayed over my pet and I would never go back even if I could.

    very unprofessional. scammer.!! she will take your money if you are 1 min late but promise 15 min…read moregrace period.
