It has been some time, but wanted to share because there is just not enough info out there for people looking for cat groomers! Why is it so hard to find someone that knows how to properly give a cat a haircut?! Regardless, I did my research a few years ago and saw mostly stellar reviews as far as dog grooming at Pom. Found only a few reviews from cat parents, and those were all 5 stars. Reasonable pricing and reasonable proximity to home. Decided to give it a shot and bring my 11 month old Ragdoll in for a lion cut. Yikes. I never had a long-haired cat before but knew that this was not what a fresh cut should look like! Not at all what I had requested, completely choppy with lines and unevenness all over. Plus a few cuts! Poor Tila I don't understand why she trimmed her tail at all... It was not tangled, matted, or anything. I am a licensed cosmetologist so I did my best in going in with texturing shears to blend a bit and get rid of some blockiness. I wouldn't want to bash any small business, but my intention is to help inform anyone with the difficult task of searching out a cat groomer. This ain't it. Looks like people are very happy with the dog grooming, but they don't seem to have enough cat experience. Thankfully hair grows and we've since found Tila's forever stylist after this awful first haircut. read more

No need to find another groomer. Pom Pom is here for you ! Very welcoming and nice people. Angie took care of me as it was Chucks first time. Treated me like family and because of that I'll be back. Took about 2-3 hrs just as they had mention. I would recommend making an appointment. Cash and or Quickpay/Venmo no CC. I'll be back thanks Pom Pom. Sounds like they have been around which is always great for small business. Go here over your big box. read more

The worst place I have ever taken my dog ​​to, they gave her a super uneven haircut, and apart from how horrible the haircut was, my dog ​​came back with fleas, the place was dirty and looked poorly maintained. read more

Excellent service and wonderful customer service. They do a great job at comforting and grooming my dog. Every other place I ever took my dog for grooming had him come back almost traumatized however whenever I've brought him afterwards he is his normal energetic self. read more

A warm and homey place which is a reflection of the owners, Angie, and her mom in law, Virginia. We brought our 17 year old cat, who has never been professionally groomed, to Pom Pom because his fur was getting matted. Angie confidently and tenderly groomed him and clipped ALL his nails. Fast, reasonably priced and efficient. As an added treat, they have a huge parrot n a cage there for a quaint touch. Highly recommend read more

It took me a few years to find a good groomer for my bichon. I've been bringing my dog here for over a year and Virginia delivers consistent and great results! She's does a great job and does it in a timely manner! I highly recommend her services! read more

I'm sad to write this. I didn't really want to write this because I rather not think of it but I took our 6 month old puppy and was cut in several places. I don't know if it's common because he squirms but I'd still would never go back there. I wish I would have taken photos but I was so upset that I didn't want to think of it. Our puppy didn't seem harmed in the beginning because his hair is really curly but when we got home, my husband noticed several small cuts near his eyes. Also, I asked for a trim but she really cut his hair really short. His hair was matted in several place so I understand but it was only matted towards the bottom, not the top so it shouldn't have been that short. However, I wasn't offended by it at because he still looks cut regardless of the cut. The only reason I'm writing this review is because our pediatrician encouraged us and it hopes that they get better. read more

My mom recently took my dog here. We like that this place only takes one dog at a time. He had been here before, and he seemed to like her so we wanted to give her one more chance. We asked to her please not shave/go as short because my dog becomes very irritated with short fur. (His fur is thick) My dog came back, about 50 percent shaved, 25 percent not cut at all, and 25 percent cut so short, it could almost be shaved. This poor dog has bald spots everywhere and has been so irritated the last few days. I've never seen my dog look so bad. He looks like he was in a fight with the way his hair is so uneven in so many different places. His "mohawk" is one half bald spot followed by a bunch of uncut fur that falls into his eyes. I won't put my dog thru this again. read more

Absolutely Awful Angie! is what this place should be called. I requested a very specific haircut for my puppy. She completely disregarded my request. And did whatever she wanted. She is obviously incompetent. Could of at least called me and ask if I wanted my puppy completely shaved bald. I could of shaved my puppy at home if that's what I wanted. SMFH read more

Pom Pom Grooming - My little dog after another great grooming at Pom Pom! Thank you you so much! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Lyons, Illinois

I love Pom Pom! I have been taking my long-haired cat (Puff) here since I adopted her 8 years ago. Puff is not a very nice cat. She is also very scared when we have to take her out of the house, but Pom Pom is very patient and kind with her. I will be adding a dog to the family in the fall, and I know exactly where I will take him/her to be groomed. read more

New to the area so I took my time to check reviews and I picked Pom Pom. I was able to get an appointment within the week for my Westie. Angie was very professional and polite. My dog looked wonderful only a few hours later. He's very hyper but no problems and he was very happy on his way out. Prices were fine. Added bonus was the excellent teeth cleaning. I will be back for sure. read more

Pom Pom Grooming - Before and after Angie from Pom Pom did her magic. - Pet Groomers Near Me - Lyons, Illinois

We just tried this groomer for the first time Angie did a good job. Mollie was done much faster then our previous groomer. They also brush the dogs teeth which no other groomer has ever done. We will continue with her read more

I really like how flexible Virginia is about taking appointments. I can count on her to get my dog in for an appointment last minute. I think she's reasonably priced, my dog likes her and she really listens to my requests on how to trim him. The place is small and not particularly attractive, but Virginia is so sweet and does a nice job. read more

I find it strange that Pom Pom has three great reviews and one negative, from a 26 y/o, that felt they needed to tell about their background and how they were treated. Who cares about what you do? If you were unhappy about the service, then express what that dislike was. This platform is to advise future customers what your experience was about. The question is, did you approach them with who you are and what you've accomplished, or was it about your pet? You did fail to mention that. But because of the really good reviews from others, and their positive experiences with their pets, I will be sure that my relative continues to patronize this establishment. read more

We could not be more pleased with Pom Pom Grooming! We had been recommended to give them a call to service our Stafford Terrier when other places would not. Virginia was very helpful and accommodating so we could get our puppy all cleaned up and happy. The price was right and the service was even better! We'll be seeing you again soon! read more

Angie and Virginia are super welcoming and friendly, and their salon has a fantastic local feel. They are great with both dogs and cats. Angie cut my cats' nails in a flash. Highly recommended. read more

Although they were friendly they could have cut my dog better, they did a terrible job and I could have cut my dogs hair better than how they cut him,in addition to that they accidentally cut him and upon returning to pick him up he looked very frightened and scared.Overall my expectations were ruined and my dogs hair was cut bad. read more

I needed to get my cat shaved to get rid of matting fur. Angie did a great job with my cat, who had never been groomed before. Angie was gentle and kind the whole time. The owner was also there and gave me some good tips as we were talking. I was so happy with the result. The price was reasonable. They don't take credit cards, but that was not a big deal. I will be back if the need arises. Highly recommend them!! read more

I have two babies Crystal and Kayla their my Maltipoos throughout the 10 years Crystal will let me give her a haircut. I think she knows she's going to feel better. My Kayla she turns into a snake and slithers away. I decided to get professional help LOL LOL. I called and talked to Virginia she explain the services that they offer. Virginia even offers teeth cleaning. And her prices are sooo reasonable. I crossed my fingers and made an appointment. My plan was to drop Kayla off drive around the corner and wait for Virginia to call me to pick her up. And say there's no hope for Kayla LOL. We arrived at the shop Virginia put Kayla on the table and started clipping away Kayla gave her a little bit of a fight. It was like Virginia knew which way she was going to move. It was like she was a magician I blinked and she was all done. I will be bringing Crystal here!! Thank you so much for Virginia!! read more
