    i requested fluffly paws
    Sandra M.

    Hello, Saint was in on 3/17/23 for a full grooming. I am unsatisfied with the services. The more I look at saint the more I become upset. I called and spoke Erin (not sure) and she spoke to the groomer. This is $75.00 later. I expressed my disappointment in the services and she spoke with the groomer and told me that the groomer was hesitant with the cut. I asked for a cute poodle look framing of the face and body cut low and poofy/fluffy legs. He did not get the cut I requested. His eyes and chin are still dirty. They told me they didn't spray him with the perfume because the groomer was unsure of the cut. He stinks and does not look like he was bathed. His ear fur looks dirty and his cut is uneven all over. His ears don't even looked brushed. I want him re-bathed, sprayed and his uneven hair cut re-trimmed. They offered a cut however what are they going to cut the stray hairs! I have emailed 2x to request a full refund. Still waiting to hear back.

    Pup loved this treat! I should have gotten more than one!

    Stopped in to get my pup a treat while we were on a road trip for being so good in the car. They have a water bowl right when you walk in which is always appreciated, esp on hot days! Cute toy section, a huuuge sample section if you're trying to figure out what your doggo likes to eat. Also a cute kitty section! Definitely check it out if you haven't already!

    We've tried several groomers including petco and petsmart over the past 3 years since we got our cavalier King Charles. They are by far the best that have cut him. We don't care if he looks like his breed. With a new infant, we want to keep his hair short and clean. Somehow they've given him the perfect cut. Perfect all around. He looks like he was born a short-haired dog. His hair looks like suede. We will never take him anywhere else. The only challenge is parking so me and hubby go together so one of us can stay in the car if no legal parking is available. Works great, and their service and excellence is well worth the extra effort!

    I always get anxiety bringing my dog anywhere, especially dropping her off all alone but here put my mind at ease. They don't use cages so my pup wasn't crying in a cage for half the grooming, plus they do her all at one time, it's not an all day event like some places I've brought my dog too. The groomer was kind, as well as everyone I spoke to over the phone. My daisy was fresh and clean and most importantly happy when i picked her up. They were gentle on her and took their time. We will be returning.

    My dog has had no problem getting groomed at other groomers downstate. We recently moved to Wilmington and came here for the first time.... my dog came home shaved RAW and trembling. He had a few mats in his fur but the other groomers have had no trouble trimming around these mats, there was no reason to shave him down to his raw skin! The groomers blamed it on him, saying he was aggressive and angry. Once again, this hasn't been an issue at other groomers. I'm attaching a pic of him before and a few pics after, where you can literally see how uncomfortable he is. I guess we'll have to make the trip down to Dover every once in a while to get him groomed from now on.

    This place is great. It's local, convenient, they have fun events, friendly employees etc. However, the true gem in this place is how they treat your dog during grooming. When I've picked my dog up at other groomers I immediately hear my dog barking her head off and crying in a kennel in the back. She RARELY barks but being in a foreign place with no one around is when she will bark because she thinks she's being abandoned. When I picked up my dog from being groomed at Riverfront Pet, I did not hear her barking which I thought was odd. I found out that she was just chilling behind the counter hanging out with the employees waiting for me! It was so nice to know that in the 20-30 minutes it took me to pick her up, she wasn't anxious or scared and she was content being looked after.

    Pippa enjoying her fresh cut!

In addition to his size and strength, Zippy is extremely reactive, thus very difficult to control, when he encounters other dogs during walks. I advertised for dog walkers on Nextdoor and received a few responses from kids and other dog lovers. When Jack Feldmann the owner of Your Pet's Best Friend reached out to me, it was immediately apparent that he is a professional -- the real deal. He and his associate, Kevin Wilson, were totally unfazed by Zippy's size and potential for problems. Both developed great relationships with our monster dog and managed him beautifully. Fortunately, I'm again able to walk Zippy, but I will certainly call Your Pet's Best Friend anytime our circumstances require support with Zippy. If you live in the Wilmington area, I highly recommend their services. Jack's number is (302) 379-5501.

When I reached out to Jack he suggested we meet up prior to my needing his services to meet my pup so they could get to know one another before the trip. When I left him with Jack during my vacation, I received a pic of my baby as well as daily updates on his well-being. He told me how he was eating, his many walks and his temperament while being in a different home that he was not used to. This was really a relief to me as I didn't have to worry that my pup was being taken care of in a knowledgeable, calm atmosphere. I will definitely use Jack again for any future pet sitting vacations that I will need. He is the best! G

    Firstly, I'd like to note that I'm currently blocked from leaving a FB review on the For the Love…read moreof Dogs LLC Facebook page. My wife, and I hired FLD from Wed Nov 13th in the evening, to Friday evening to provide 6 60-minute visits for our 2 dogs. We have strict rules for our pets that were quite clearly illustrated, most notably that our dogs are to stay in our large kitchen area when nobody is home so that they don't get into things around the house. When we arrived home we had found: 1.) Main door unlocked. 2.) Kitchen door (sunroom connects the main door, and kitchen area) ajar. 3.) The gate in the kitchen wide open, and our critters running around the house. Over the course of the day they had knocked over electronics, candles, and made a mess (#1 & #2) in our piano room. After a 3+ hour drive back from Washington DC, it was not a great look for us to have to Bona 3 rooms because of an error on our sitters part. I wish I could say that that was our only complaint, on a whim we decided to check the logs for our security system to see when our sitter had last been there, and we were shocked to learn: 1.) Out of 6 60-minute visits, he only came 4 times. 2.) Not a single visit lasted an hour, one lasted 45 minutes, and the remaining 3 averaged 30 minutes. This is absolutely unacceptable. I hope that nobody else will ever have to come home to a completely unsecured home after hiring this company. It's blatantly irresponsible, and there needs to be a better system for vetting sitters, and their actions while in a persons home. For our trouble were were refunded $99 out of $168. I believe that we deserve a full refund, not a single service that we hired this company for was properly rendered. This is not acceptable.

We have three dogs, two with disabilities (one is blind and one is deaf), and this was not at all an issue. Leah and her team set up a schedule and made sure our babies were well cared for. If you're looking for a service that will come to your home and take good care of your fur babies, For the Love of Dogs is it. We will definitely call again for all of our pet sitting needs. Thanks again!

I like getting a little report card on how things went, and they were very well cared for. (My bf was periodically checking in too and said everything was fine with food and water.) not only that but she did a fantastic job with the litterboxes and redoing the newspapers, which I really appreciate. Finally FG has the most reasonable rates for cat sitting in the area. considering my cats are seniors and all they do is sleep, it's not hard to check on them (I mean, it's less work than walking a dog and pooper scooping) so paying at least $20/day for two sleeping/hiding cats seems pretty exorbitant. Thanks ladies!

Heather was very hands-on and on top of everything. She came and did an initial meet and greet with our dog in our home and ran through all of the details. She was very organized, punctual, and easy to work with. On our wedding day, Heather picked our dog up and brought her to the pre-wedding pictures, sat with her through the ceremony, and even stayed around after so we could see her and say bye before she took her back home. Our dog is a bit anxious, and Heather was able to calm her down and keep her at ease throughout the entire day. We felt fully comfortable leaving her in Heather's hands, you can really tell she loves and cares about dogs. We would highly recommend Heather's services to any pet owners!
