Quality of grooming has always been very good here. We have taken our dogs here for over 10 years now and they always come back super clean and well groomed. She is a well experienced and trained groomer technically, and she knows what she is doing. When we have taken my dogs to other groomers we always notice a huge difference in her coat and cleanliness and how long my pup's cleanliness lasts, meaning my dogs were cleaned throughly and with extra care. She is not the most friendliest person (she maybe having some health issues specially lately??) but she always does a great job cleaning my dog and I will probably continue taking my dog here forever as it is hard to find quality grooming service I can be happy with. read more

Our Yorkiepoo was nicely groomed and well taken care of. We asked for a shorter cut, making sure it was even throughout and his super long eye lashes were not trimmed. When we take our dog to other groomers, he is often quiet and subdued. Today, our dog came home very energized and happy. Thank you to the new management for taking good care of our dog. read more

My mom has been going to Shampoodle for over 10 years. Mimi was the original owner and had groomed all of our dogs. Unfortunately she past away due to cancer. Her good friend Randi was so kind and gracious to take over the business and keep Mimi's dream alive and going. We had Isabella groomed today and she looks great! Randi and her crew did a great job! The new number for Shampoodle is 818-423-0745. Thank you guys so much! Isabella is so happy and looks great! read more

I have a nervous, pain-in-the-butt papillon, and I've been able to trust Shampoodle 100% with my baby! The cut is always super natural-looking, which is ideal for papillons. The owner is so kind and gentle with him, he even goes with her no problem. I feel so confident when I leave him there, I know he gets the best care, a great cut, and he's done in no time at all. She usually calls me within an hour to come pick him up. Pricing is fantastic, you're definitely getting bang for your buck. 1000% recommend for difficult, scared, or nervous dogs. read more

Mimi is the best! We wouldn't ever take our doggies anywhere else after finding Shampoodle. She is the ultimate professional who really cares about dogs. We've been taking our two girls to her for over two years. She does an amazing job every time and we love that the grooming also includes anal glands and nail trimming. read more

Shampoodle - Shampoodle is the best! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Van Nuys, California

When I made my decision to groom my dog here I was trusting the good reviews. She is very rude not only to people but to the dogs. She was bothered by my dog because he was scared. You'd think she'd seen a nervous dog before but she was verbally saying how she didn't like my dog. He was jumping on me when I picked him up because he was excited to see me; and that bothered her. He was never aggressive towards her. I felt bad for leaving my dog at a place where he was not liked. If my dog wasn't cooperating I would understand her frustration, but he was just sitting there a bit nervous. It bothers me to think my dog was treated bad when I wasn't there. read more

I've taken my 2 year old toy poodle to several groomers around the valley and I'm never happy with his cut. When I saw a poodle at the dog park with the perfect look, I had to ask where he was groomed! I was referred to Shampoodle and I've never been happier with the results! A lot of groomers will claim they specialize in poodles - but this place is the real deal! Very happy with my dogs haircut and we will definitely be back soon 5 stars!!! read more

If you're in need of any grooming service for your pets please try Shampoodle out!!!!!!!! read more

I took my 4-month old puppy to have her nails trimmed and filed there. I told the female groomer that I was going to step out to run some errands then she said "No. You need to stay. I'll need your help to hold your dog down." Err.....? We should have left right then, but I stayed and helped while my poor puppy yelped and squirmed as the female groomer yelled and scolded at her. After she battled with my puppy and traumatized me to have me assist torturing my dog, she declared, "Your dog has an issue!". She then whips out this business card of some dog trainer to hands it to me. The groomer told us to pay before the service was completed. When I asked her if she was going to file my dogs nails she snapped at me saying, "Would your dog let me?!" At this point I was appalled and said "You would charge that amount for this service?" My snappy comment prompted her to reduce the fee to ZERO, however, I would not go back there ever again even if we get paid to do so. I have been to many groomers in the past, but this place was the absolute worst. Don't take your doggies there! read more

Wish I could give 10 stars! We adopted a dog from East Valley Animal Shelter and after a week of being there and before that who knows where...filthy was an understatement! We waited the two week quarantine time (plus healing time from being neutered) before bringing him to Shampoodle. I picked up an entirely different dog. Soft and silky from where he was wiry and stiff...pure magic! read more

Shampoodle - So clean he is welcomed anywhere in the house! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Van Nuys, California

Mimi might be the best poodle groomer in town, but based on my conversation with her. I would never in million years leave my poodles with her. She came highly recommended by a friend and fellow groomer, who apparently gave me Mimi's personal phone number by mistake. Weirdest, rudest conversation I have had in along time. Mimi was outraged that I called her personal number and that I couldn't tell her the name of her friend and said she wasn't taking on new clients. I apologized and said i didn't know this was her personal number, how could I.(?) I don't let mean, rude people touch my dogs. Nice way to run a business. read more

Shampoodle is so amazing, I have been bringing my boxer here for years. The owner always fits him in, and is always so kind. and of course does a fantastic job every time. read more

We have been taking our fur babies to Mimi for at least 15 years now and she is nothing short of amazing. She is gentle and caring and provides a safe and clean environment while the kids are waiting their turn to get clean. Over the years as our dogs have left us and new ones have taken their place she consistently does a great job of grooming regardless of the type of dog we hand over to her. You can't go wrong giving your pup over to her for grooming. She is very fair and competitive with her grooming prices. read more

My dogs are not poodles! Don't think that's all Mimi will groom. I have a pitbull and a very troublesome long haired golden mix of some kind. Masses of fur and gets VERY dirty - oh, and she hates people and other dogs. Mimi has been grooming her for several years and she wouldn't dream of misbehaving with her. In fact she loves to be groomed. Mimi is extremely reliable, always returns calls in good time, gets the dogs groomed in good time. At this time she is coming out to take the dogs from the car so you don't even have to go into her shop. Her prices are very reasonable and I always pick up happy dogs. I wouldn't take them anywhere else, in fact I don't think my long haired one would let me. Take your dogs to Mimi. You won't be disappointed. read more

We were eating across the street and saw a cute poodle leave from this place and we have our poodle with us and thought, let's get her groomed while we eat. I ask the lady if the poodle was just groomed there because it looks great and she responded with "It's my poodle." Ok. So I asked again. Same response. Then she adds "I'm the Breeder." Again, no answer to my question. I go inside pick up a card and she says "how old is she she needs grooming badly." I say "5 months and yes we've just been letting her hair grow." She then says "I'm not taking anymore standard poodles." Huh?? That seems to be your business and this dog is a puppy! And she was rude while saying all of this. I initially thought she was racist but after reading this reviews it seems to be just her rude demeanor. read more

Tried bringing in my dogs today and the lady at tree front desk was extremely rude. I had heard good things about this place about how friendly they are with dogs but she manhandled my dog right in front of me and even yelled at her. She also yelled at another dog she had being groomed. I decided to not even leave my dogs with her because if she was yelling at them in front of me I could only imagine how she treats them when no one is around. Do not bring your dogs here. read more

OK Mimi doesn't like crazy pet owners. So next time take your puppy to the vet to have its nails trimmed,so they can "torture" it out of your sight.No dog wants its nails trimmed,I've had champion show dogs and it was a struggle most often. If you want the best dog grooming anywhere I would go to Shampoodle. I had show poodles and am very picky about the cut and blow dry and Mimi comes through with flying colors.Everyone wants my dogs and they are rescue mutts. Thats all because of MImi. read more

Didn't get serviced by them but called to get a price, for a groom which what I was told was a shampoo and haircut was $50 for a small dog. No thank you! read more

I am embarrassed I have not left a review earlier! I assumed I had. Well, better late than never. Noriko loves dogs, and really knows her business! She is an expert on poodles. Our dog loves to go to her! Noriko is a perfectionist! We are so pleased we found her! read more

I have been taking all my dogs and my mother's dogs to be groomed by Mimi for close to 20 years. As my Mother's aging dog was getting difficult for anyone to handle, Mimi was ever so diligent with her and I will always be forever grateful. I continuously get complements on appearance of my babies. Mimi is knowledgeable, professional and caring. I recommend Shampoodle to anyone who is looking for great groomer for your precious furry babies. read more

We love Shampoodle. They did a great job and did it in the time she said. My poor little dog did not have to wait all day for her haircut. She is a Shih Tzu Maltese mix and she got the cutest cut. Mimi even fixed the bad cut from the previous groomer. I would reccomend this place to anyone. read more

My husband and I have two Miniature Schnauzers and have taken them to many different groomers throughout the valley, but we were not completely happy with any of them. Once we found Shampoodle we knew this was the only place we would be taking our girls from then on. Mimi does such a great job as the girls always look amazing after they have been to see her. She gets the girls in and out very quickly which I love and she is very reasonably priced which I also love. We liked her so much we referred our dog owning family members so now Mimi grooms my parents dog, my brother and sister-in-law's dog, and my grandparent's dog! I would recommend Shampoodle to anyone looking for a great groomer for their dogs. read more

We took our poodle to Shampoodle a few times. The groomer there, Mimi was fine at first and did a good job, but she has never been very personable. The last time we took our dog to her 3 weeks ago, she sounded very busy and hassled and asked us to bring him in early on a Saturday. We were then asked to come back 4 hours later. When our dog got home, he started licking himself furiously - on further inspection, we saw that she had nicked him quite badly in his groin area. There was a big sore. He couldn't sit, was in a lot of pain so we took him to the emergency vet. They shot him with steroids and gave us pain killers. It took days for the wound to heal. Nicks happen, but I think she should have mentioned something to us. If she was too busy to take us, then she should have just said she was booked. I feel she was rushed and did a bad job. This is one groomer we plan on never going to again. read more

I've brought my small mixed breed pup here several time and he always looks great. I've had him groomed at a few other places and this is the best by far. He also seems really happy when he comes home so I know he is well treated. I like that the grooming area is visible when you walk in. Prices are reasonable. read more

I usually don't take my dog to get groomed but I wanted my Mamach to have a spa day . I really liked the shampoo she used and the groomer was nice.When I picked up Mamach she was all clean and smelling fresh. read more

Shampoodle, Mimi has been grooming my family of dachshunds for three generations. My most recent rescue adoption, was very skittish about being handled by people he doesn't know and now he s comletely calm about being groomed. I hold him while getting his nails clipped, just because most dogs get nervous during that procedure. Thank YOU Mimi for being in the neighborhood. read more

I took my dogs to Petco for years and the prices kept going up while quality went down, so I searched and found Shampoodle. On the first visit, I knew the service was far better right off- better, cheaper and faster- which means less cage time also. She grooms my two dogs in less than half the time and they come out looking like show dogs. It seems to be a more personal service, old- School type of business you get in smaller towns. If you love your dogs and want the best grooming service with all the above, Mimi at Shampoodle is the best. Fantastico. read more

I could not believe I was calling a business this lady Mimi is so rude I was very kind to her and she still had a bad attitude as if I was asking her for a favor I don't mind paying for quality but I do not trust her with my pet no way! read more

Referred by a close friend...took our Lhasa Apso/Jack Russell mix to Shampoodle. And it's in the neighborhood and love supporting a mom & pop shop. Jackie took care of us today and we were thoroughly impressed! This is our new groomer! You can feel/see from hello to goodbye that they love dogs and treat them with dignity as of they were their own. 5 s all the way!!! read more

I've been using Mimi for many years & think she's the best groomer in the SF Valley. She always gets my dog done quickly & he looks so good when she's done. I've recommended her to many of my friends & neighbors. Her price is reasonable & even lower than some other groomers in this area. Michelle R. Encino read more

Surprised. Im reading all the reviews before me and it left me confused. Took my poodle mix here when she really needed a bath and her nails cut. Didn't take too long, about an hour and a half.. problem is when i came to get my pup, i noticed a lot... she had a pretty big cut on her neck and one of her nipples was completely cut off... not to mention her hair wasnt even everywhere... it was weird because the store itself had a lot of rewards n trophies making me believe my pup was in good hands. ALSO, they seem to have their own poodles even some that compete in dog shows giving me even more trust in them since they were comfortable with poodles. I have taken my pup to other areas that had worse reviews and comments compared to this groomer, and have never had this happen. Sorry, but wont be taking my dog back here. I suggest people to look over their dog after because the asian lady there (one who groomed my pup) did not mention any harm being done to my dog which made me distrust this place. Who doesn't notice blood??? Just glad i didnt tip. read more

Let me start by saying I do not even want to give this establishment one star, but that is the lowest possible rating. This place is absolutely horrible and I do not know how they are still in business. Their customer service is a complete disaster, and if you go here you will regret it. I took my dog into this place, and when I picked him up I felt as if he was very upset. I do not know what they did, but my dog was not his normal happy self. When I asked about it, they simply said that "he was not easy to work with". What does that even mean, is any dog going to do exactly as you tell him to do, especially when he does not even know you. I hope that I can help people to never make the same mistake I did, and never take there dog here. If you do decide to take your dog here, I would stay with my dog to make sure nothing happens to him/her. I would NEVER recommend this horrid place to anybody. read more

I don't have a poodle, but I had a great experience nonetheless! The price was so reasonable and she cut my dogs nails without hurting her, plus she was done in under an hour! Great service. read more

My three small dogs, who range from high maitenence to mellow, all got great cuts at Shampoodle. The matts are all gone and the dogs smell great. They seemed to be in great spirits when I picked them up. Also, the owner was very flexible when an emergency prevented me from picking them up on time. read more

We have been taking our miniature poodle, Killer, to Mimi every 3 weeks since he was 9 months old. He just turned 14 and still looks handsome each and every time. Mimi is very gentle with Killer who is blind and diabetic. We are so grateful to have found her. read more

I've been taking my Pomeranian to be groomed by Mimi at Shampoodle for at least 7 or 8 years. That's despite the fact that it's a 30-minute drive from my house. She's just worth it. She does a great job, charges a quite fair price and is very knowledgeable and professional. She's always friendly to me and my dog loves going there. I don't know what I'd do if she ever moved her business, but unless it was to New Jersey, I'd probably still be a customer! read more
