I have been bringing my pet Milo to Claudia and her team since he was a puppy! There's no one else I trust more than Puppy Cutz. Everyone goes above and beyond when it comes to grooming. They even take cute pictures of your pet after. Highly recommend!!

Linus playing

My Labradoodle baby LInus , has been regularly going to Claudia since his puppy days , we moved from the neighbourhood and we still drive all the way 65 miles to just get him groomed from Claudia . He dashes in to meet her and is very happy going there. Thanks so much Claudia for loving our baby Linus who by the way is now 7 years old .

I absolutely LOVE them! Claudia is amazing and Lisa is such a sweetheart! Super knowledgeable about care for pups and they definitely made my babies look amazing!

After her bath and trim. Happy girl!

I'm so glad I found Claudia! Easy to talk to and knowing I'm first time dog owner, she is patient and listens. Very responsive through yelp and txt messages which is a plus, because harder to call these days when you are on the go. I've come in contact with 2 mobile groomers and the first was easy going, but vehicle was dirty and very expensive. 2nd, her mannerisms were very unpleasant, unclear on what she could do and her prices, but her vehicle was clean. Claudia is located farther than I'd like, but I can just schedule on weekends when I visit my parents which works out. I'm nervous leaving my nervous puppy behind, but when I came back, she was a happy girl! She did well and next time we go back, she will get a full hair cut. She was finished in less than 1.5 hrs and I like that Claudia focuses on one dog at a time, or if you have multiple dogs, she can focus on one client at a time persay. I'm so thankful that I got a referral to go see Claudia. Now my search for a groomer is over!

First time at Puppy Cutz back in June.

Today was our 2nd time having our pupper groomed by Claudia and it was great! I booked an appointment with Claudia around the end of November and she was very responsive and helpful throughout. In terms of the actual cut, we haven't been disappointed as my boyfriend's mini Aussie comes out looking outrageously handsome the 2 times that we took him here. Claudia is definitely our go-to for dog grooming services and you can see why by referring to my photos posted! Claudia is also usually booked three weeks out so schedule accordingly. Thank you for the amazing service Claudia!

Best groomer I ever had! Highly recommend you go here for your dog. Claudia is awesome! I would have stayed with her as my dog's groomer if I hadn't moved away. She's very friendly and you can tell she's passionate about her work. She does an amazing job. She runs her business from home, so don't be alarmed if you end up in a residential area with the GPS navigation. She is very thorough in her service. She turns your dog into a puppy again. My dog is 10+ years old and if you reference my photos, he looks like a cutie pie. She is flexible with her hours and gives you a 10 minute notice before she is done to give you some time to head over. Her price is similar to any grooming shop. I'm not sure what her price is now, but last time I went to her in Summer 2017, she was charging $65 for full grooming service. I would prefer to have her though as she is personable and my dog doesn't seem to be as anxious compared to going to a shop. Again, highly recommend!

pic from claudia after penny's haircut #1! it's funny how you never realize how crazy your dog looked until after their haircut LOL yikes

We started coming to Claudia at Puppy Cutz after my friend recommended her! My friend's dog is a bichon-poodle mix and whenever my friend would bring her dog to other groomers, because his fur is so curly the groomers would usually shave it really short due to the matting that curly-haired dogs can develop over time. Claudia at Puppy Cutz was the first groomer to patiently brush through the matting and preserve his fur without shaving it off completely, and he looked so handsome (and not naked haha)!! After hearing about how much my friend loved the service and results from Claudia, I was convinced. So, I brought my puppy, Penny, here for her first grooming about a year ago -- and we have been coming back here ever since! Claudia is wonderful and really makes sure to get the full idea of what you want for your pup's look, or any special needs your pup might have. She is also incredibly knowledgeable about different breeds and how to deal with different hair types!! I usually get the full package service, which I believe includes: nail clipping, ear cleaning, bath/brushing/de-shedding, haircut, teeth brushing, and I think cleaning of the butt too (contact her to confirm!). The price is super affordable for the amazing job she does every time and for all the services that she provides. Sometimes she will even add a cute bow or scarf after the grooming! She also let me know that if your dog has a special/medicated shampoo, you can bring the shampoo and she will gladly use it, so you can keep that in mind too! Claudia is also super approachable and replies very quickly over text/phone. I love how she operates from her home because it's such a comfortable environment. I will always recommend her to anyone for their pups! Thank you Claudia for all that you do!!

Walle love

Claudia is my 11 yo Yorkie's favorite human. I'm a little embarrassed to admit this, but it's true. It's saying a lot because like most dogs, Walle doesn't particularly like to be groomed. Claudia speaks to him and handles him with the greatest care so that he feels calm and comfortable. She's a gifted groomer. He always looks adorable after his haircut, even after it grows out. She is an all around really nice person and just the best groomer!

Back again today... Thanks Claudia.

Thanks Claudia. Such an amazing grooming services you had provided. Everything was done nicely and perfectly... Hair, nails,...and even teeth. Thanks! In short, we used to bring our eskie to our neighborhood shops for grooming, but after 3 yrs of keep searching and trying the known ones around... We still never find anyone good enough. Claudia have shown us that she cares and knowledgeable about dogs very much, which gave us a peace of mind since our eskie is an extremely timid one. Needless to say....We will definitively come back as regulars (even tho it's quite far from our home).

Leo (my dog) and I have been coming to Puppy Cuts for a few months now and we both absolutely love it! He used to be so timid at the groomers but Claudia has been patient and loving w/him. Something I have been looking for in a groomer for some time now. I highly recommend this grooming service to any dog owner, look at this picture of Leo!! He is beyond adorable. Claudia also gives advice on upkeep until your next appointment. Setting up an appointment is really easy and done in a punctual manner. Greatly appreciate the 20 minute notice before finished.

This review is long overdue the groomers are all great. My friend and I both take our dog here and they make the dogs feel at home. They are informative and let me know what they will cut as my dog has long hair so I'm very nervous but they are great.

Bailey looking handsome after Claudia's awesome job!
Cinthya G.

I am extremely happy with the results! It took Bailey only a couple of minutes to warm up with Claudia though my puppy is a very nervous dog. I love that she takes one dog at a time so your dog does not need to be waiting all day. Claudia gave me different choices about what would be better for my maltipoo. He had several mats but I didn't want him to get fully shaved. Claudia exceeded my expectations; she's very professional and loving. I'm very happy with the results! Will definitely come back here more regularly.

Long hair, don't care vs cutie in pink
Phillip R.

This place is cute. When you get here, you are greeted by a garden of doggie statues. No gnomes, just doggies. It's kind of funny. Then, when Claudia comes to greet me and Blitz she informed me of how long it'd take, what may/ may not happen and let me know ahead of time when she was going to be done. It was all rather quick and Blitz seemed to be comfortable after her first cut. That was a relief. Knowing anything new can come as a bit of a shock, it makes me think twice or, extra careful sifting through reviews. It took about an hour and it seemed that Blitz took it exceptionally well. She was able to give her a full groom as well as notified me ahead of time when she would be ready. After the fact, she told me how it went and she was so cute! She looked like how she was when she was a puppy..

See all

There's no point in asking for a quote if they don't accept new customers, maybe take it off. Disappointed but understandable.

Scheduling on the website is convenient and communication over text is very responsive. Ameena was…read morevery thorough. Our long-haired cat wound up extremely soft with beautiful fur

If I can give it a negative 5 star I would…read more I am absolutely HORRIFIED by what happened to my dog, Harry, during his mobile grooming appointment. This is not simply about a groomer accidentally nicking a dog and forgetting to tell the owner. Harry came back with TWO separate areas where his hair is missing and the skin underneath is raw, injured, and BLEEDING. When I separated his fur and saw what was underneath, my heart dropped. As his mom, my first thought was: What happened to my dog inside that van? How ROUGH does grooming have to be for a dog to come back with his hair missing, raw skin, and bleeding wounds? Looking at these injuries honestly makes me feel sick. It looks like his skin and coat went through significant trauma. I cannot know exactly what happened because I wasn't inside the grooming van, and Harry obviously cannot tell me. But I know what he looked like before his appointment, and I know what he looked like afterward. Grooming should NEVER leave a dog looking like this. And on top of everything, the groomer handed Harry back to us without saying a single word about either injury. Nothing about irritation. Nothing about bleeding. Nothing about an accident. Nothing. Harry is not an object being washed and brushed. He is a living animal who feels pain and fear. HE IS MY BABY! I trusted this company to handle him gently and safely when I couldn't be there to protect him. Seeing him come back to me like this makes me incredibly angry, but more than anything, it breaks my heart. He cannot speak for himself, so I will speak for him. I am posting the photos because other dog owners deserve to see exactly what Harry looked like after this grooming appointment and make their own decision about whom they trust with their pets. Whatever happened during this appointment was completely unacceptable to me. I will never allow this company to touch Harry again.
