    Alycia has been our only groomer for years. She takes such good care of our Pomeranians. Our Poms see her every 4 weeks. She is patient and aware of their weird quirks and habits. We get so many compliments on how well groomed they always are and how their fur is so soft and silky. These are our children and we don't trust them with anyone else!

    If you love your pet! I mean really love your pet and you would ONLY put them in the hands of a specialist groomer Alycia owner of Setting The Standard Mobile Grooming is for you and your family. My shitzu "Coffee" loves her so much. He can't wait for her visit and neither can we. Her level of care and professionalism is bar none. I've used a few brick and mortar and mobile groomers and none compare with her service. She even leaves him with a tie or bow and he looks so handsome. I'm beyond blessed to have found her and we were able to get on her rotation. Her rates are excellent for what she delivers.

    Hired services for our newest member of family first grooming. Wanted to use a service that comes to us. Have to text for response so we did. Response was a few days later. Next available was a few weeks out which I took. I was out of town and left instructions with my oldest daughter. The lady was on time and friendly. Took about 45 minutes and was charge $125. When I got home the next day I was disappointed . Looked like he just had his bangs cut(uneven) , paws cleaned up and backside trimmed. Plus she trimmed the middle of his eyes and it looks like to close to the skin. Looks ugly now. Definitely not $125 worth. I texted her to ask if she can correct it and a few days later her response was for me to take him to a shop. Very disappointing and such a waste of money. Very poor business practices. I will take my money somewhere else. Do not use this service.

    I wanted to share our joy with having Alycia taking care of our FOUR dogs. She has been grooming our babies since April of 2021 and every time we have had a wonderful experience. Thank you for what you do for us! Alycia is highly sought after and I appreciate that she is focused on grooming the dogs and providing them with a wonderful experience rather than dropping what she's doing to answer a text. When we first reached out, it did take a few days for a reply and a few weeks to book because her services were in high demand and we were in the middle of a pandemic. HOWEVER, since booking our first appt, she has always been responsive and accommodating with our schedule. Our babies always look super cute after their appts, their nails are trimmed nicely and they smell so good! We have not had any problems or unpleasant experiences in the two years we have been with her and we have four dogs. If you have ever experienced a horrible groomer (I hope you don't ever have to), you will definitely value and appreciate Alycia's services. In our experience, we have paid the same or more to take our dogs to a salon where they put them in kennels while they work on two or three other dogs. Being that our dogs are rescues we hate that grooming salons do this. We see the value in what we are paying for which is individualized care for our babies, Alycia's expertise (bc let's be honest, none of us on here can do what she does), and a groomer that cares and comes to YOU! We are so glad we found Alycia!

    Alycia has been the best thing that's happened to us for the care of our dogs. She always arrives on time, and the complete grooming care of our 14 year old cocker spaniel mix and 2 year old cockapoo is incredible!! I can 100 percent recommend her services to anyone in need of a mobile groomer. She is the absolute BEST!! Thank You Alycia!!

    I found Ms Alycia a few years ago and it's been one of the best decision I've ever made. Ms Alycia does a great professional job and my pup is safe with her. He always looks so happy and handsome after his grooming appointments.

    Alycia is a life saver. Our sweet little rescue doggo has had enough stress in his life so we quickly sought out a groomer who he would work well with and spend the minimum time getting groomed. Alycia is magic - she does an excellent job, Astro remains calm and is back in his home and comfort spot in a jiffy. We cannot recommend Setting the Standard and Alycia more.

    Alysha has been grooming our family dog barky for about 6 years. She is extremely patient and I love how she leaves barky. 4 years ago I got my self frost and she now grooms both. Highly recommend her!

    Absolutely love Alycia! She is always on time and I love the fact that my baby isn't sitting in some crate waiting like other places. She does an excellent job and my doodle always comes back clean, cute and smiling. She's very patient and listens to what styling you want. I was recommended by a friend and now I recommend her!

    Alycia is amazing! She truly exemplifies what setting the standard for grooming should be. She is professional and consistently provides a wonderful experience for both me and my fur baby over the past 4-years In the past we had many unfortunate experiences with traditional groomers. Before we found her, our little one used to come home slightly traumatized. But that has never been our experience with Alycia. She really takes the time to care for our little one and he absolutely loves her (don't let his resting angry face fool you - he is really happy!) We are all very happy. Pros: Mobile service direct to our home is so convenient. We have a standing appointment that fits perfectly in with our schedules. I appreciate the regular text reminders so that we can easily plan ahead. She is prompt and efficient with her time. She is proficient in communicating any upcoming schedule changes. She goes above and beyond by making us aware of any potential issues with our doggie's health or behavior. She is courteous and willing to be flexible with me when I wasn't able to get home on time. Her services are very fairly priced with her competitors. Cons: Sorry, none that I can think of.

    We love the high-quality work of Setting the Standard! Our dog always looks great, and he is not afraid, unlike other groomers. Plus, we love the convenience of a mobile groomer. Highly recommended!

    Alysia is amazing. Very professional and friendly. Gave our fur babies a husky and border collie an amazing clean up. Also love the bandanas.

    Alycia was amazing! She was prompt (early!), speedy, and skilled. She gave our pups the exact cuts we were looking for. We've tried a few places and she listened to all of our requests and was able to deliver a great cut to both of our doodles. Highly recommend Alycia!

I'll be cross posting this review on their Castro valley location too. our beagle used to get so nervous going to the groomers but he's had no issues with having his grooming appointments with Claudia. We usually call ahead of time to see if drop off is okay, usually it is fine and they can take him right away. We usually take him for a routine grooming session and also when he gets into some naughty business and wants to rub himself in the grass in who knows what but it leaves him smelling very stinky!! No worries tho cuz Claudia gets him smelling so clean and brand new. We usually book a bath, ears, teeth cleaning, nails, trim excessive paw hair. Beagles are prone to ear issues so we always include the ears!! cost is affordable but honestly, finding the perfect place is PRICELESS to us. Our dog seems comfortable being here, and maybe secretly enjoys it because he doesn't get nervous during drop offs anymore LOL We love our doggo so much and love that we found a dog groomer who is reliable, trustworthy, honest, and so friendly to us and Sage our dog.

    Been taking my dog here for years. Most of the time I was happy with outcome. I recently…read moreestablished a groomer to groom my dog everytime. My nervous doggie just loved the groomer Ashley. Sweet girl. One day I booked with Ashley and got to the shop and was told Ashley was sick so someone else did Munchies grooming. I took my dog home and was very disappointed. Just wasn't how my dog usually is groomed. I ended up calling and taking him back a few days later for Ashley to tidy up the cut. Fast forward to last month I made an appointment online on a Friday. When you book online it says REQUEST, WAITING for approval. I made the request on Friday for that Monday appointment. Well, I never heard back, never got a call, did not get a text , nothing. So Monday comes, I assume they couldn't honor my appointment. The shop calls me and tells me if I want to bring Munchie in, ever, I would need to pay for Mondays No show. I explained the situation how I did not get confirmation, no one called so I didn't think they could take him in. After going back and forth and this very rude female butting in to our conversation which they had me on speakerphone, I told the owner Nathan that I couldn't pay 120$ for the missed appointment plus another 140$ for a new appointment. I always tip 20$!!! Nathan tells me, well ok he will just charge me 60$ for Mondays appointment. I explain to him , what it says online when booking, it says request waiting on approval! It does not say confirmed! I have been a customer for years. I always tip. Nathan says no, Munchie cannot come back unless I pay the 60$. He said that I no showed a few times in the past. If that was the case, why was I never charged or this was never mentioned to me. And how can they just make up a No show price of $120? No one has ever said anything to me ever about a no show until this happened. I expected them to consider the thousands of dollars I have paid them over the years. And to consider that besides this incident that was not my fault, I have been a loyal customer! I take my dog to them once a month! Every month! But no, Nathan insisted either I pay for the missed appointment from that Monday or not to ever come back! I think that says a lot about them, and now that I have found MOBILE groomers who come to your home for same price and do a great job, I am happy this happened. Otherwise I would probably have stayed there giving them my money. All in all, Nathan does not value his customers, or this would have been handled differently. I am disappointed my dog means that little to them as a customer and my years of spending my money with them means nothing, but I am happy I moved on to this awesome mobile grooming! It is so nice, so convenient you know your dog is right outside in the van getting groomed. I don't have to wait around all day to see if A Cut Above Grooming is gonna have my dog 2 hours or 4 hours. The shop itself is not clean. There is usually dog poop on the ground outside, that stays there all day from when I drop my dog off, until I pick him up, the same poop is still there. Kinda lame considering there's 4 or 5 workers there sometimes.

Finding a local groomer became one of the many challenges for me. Based on the reviews, I chose this groomer. They are located at the west end of downtown CV. Walking in the store front, it has a very homey friendly country feel. They do not put dogs in crates. My dog has great separation anxiety so not being confined in a crate is a great relief. My appointment made via phone, requires a $50 deposit. My morning appointment, my dog was immediately taken in the back after grooming requirements were collected. Again, being a first time owner, they walk me through steps. A ninety minutes expectation was given for their work and they would text me to pick up. Upon my return, I was walk through grooming tips and tools (Coombs and brushes, and other products). I appreciate the advice. Since my dog's hair was knotted, he was trimmed very close. They were prepared to scheduled the next appointment but I held off so I can reflect on the overall experience. My dog was appeared fine from this experience though the trim could be more even throughout. Luckily the fur will grow back and no one will know the difference. I was sent a link to schedule appointments online. Overall I hit a very favorable impression with the store front and friendly staff. I definitely will schedule future grooming appointments.
