I took a chance and brought her in, in the back of my pick-up truck. I brought her in on a rope as she was panting and trying to run away. Sue took the rope and got a treat and somehow kept her fingers, and Dingo was all in her hands. When I picked her up, she had a striped bandanna on, smelt like strawberries and she no longer had long wild claws, but short tamed paws, and she wasn't even barking! Oh and she was shiny, I knew she was black but I'd only seen her with a brown tint...which now I know was dirt. I never knew she had a shiny coat under that mess. Katie had given her a stress reliever, massage bath and she relaxed and I guess enjoyed her day at the spa..so much for being a Dingo... I highly recommend Pet Services for your pets grooming needs - the price was great and the service was excellent. Thank you Sue and Katie! Once I can wrangle Dingo up again, we will be back for you to do your magic.

I would not recommend this place at all. They have no customer service skills. They come off very…read moreabrupt and try to turn it around and say your the one who is rude. We have gone their before with 2 dogs and both times there was a run around about not having one of our dog's vet information (when clearly they had it because they would have not performed any past services if they had not) and very quick to tell us than we need to cancel the upcoming appt. without wanting giving us a chance to call back with the update information required. When I called back to let to ask them what their email address was so that I could resend it (again) and asked them to have their paperwork updated so we wouldn't continue the same issues, they got very defensive saying that it was me who was rude. The conversation did escalate and I am so happy that we are now going to another place. As much as we would like to support small businesses, the downside is this place feels like they can treat people anyway they like. My mother says the older lady is nice, but the young one who I had the displeasure of speaking too is very snotty! It's a shame the dog in question has been there at least twice within one year and they give us a hard time each time because they for whatever reason are not up to date with how they file their records. Bottomline there are too many groomers out there and in MY past experience I have always had a great experience with groomers, pet lovers are usually so nice....oh well this is on them for me writing this review. I have an appt. tomorrow @ 7am for another groomer. made the call, they asked if they were up to date on shots...yes they are...please bring with you when you bring the dogs in. Boom! Done......

I just left this place and couldn't wait to write a review…read more... My name is Becky. I owned Becky's Pet Parade in Evanston. We had about 180 dog walking/pet sitting clients. I am pretty particular when it comes to the care of my dog if you get my drift. I brought my Albino Doberman Royal Pain here for boarding. From the moment I dropped him off to the moment I picked him I was at ease, comfortable and grateful that I made the choice to bring him here. He earns his name and is a lot of dog. The minute I stepped in with him Howard, Lesley, Sue and Max made me feel like he was at home. Dena was very helpful too. They didn't try to upsell me even when I tried to upsell myself into a suite. Howard took the time to walk around with me and make sure I was at ease. I couldn't have asked for better customer service. They explained the fees and addons only if I liked (and yes I added a few pleasant nature walks... Royal Pain needs it). The big test upon getting home they passed with flying colors: no bad doggie kennel smell on Royal Pain. Thanks Woofmans. We will be back!

I currently drive 45 minutes to Kenosha just so Melissa can groom my cats. She truly loves animals and is so gentle and kind to them. In my house, we call her the cat whisperer. It's the only person to whom I can take my skittish little black cat and not have her freak out and try and claw the groomer. In fact, Melissa is mystified that my cat ever acts out and scratches other groomers because she's a perfect angel for Melissa. I think prices are pretty average compared to other groomers - a little more than $40 a cat. All I know is it's well worth the drive and whatever I have to pay for my animals to be taken care of by such a good, patient groomer.

When he was a puppy, I was looking for daycare so he could meet other puppies. I went to 2 others and was so disappointed and discouraged. Bark Away was the 3rd on my list. It should have been the first! I take him only 3xs a month and they also bath him and groom him once a month. These girls are the best of the best. Me and my puppy , ( Woodruff), just love them to bits. I know you think I am going to the extreme here but it is how I feel. I NEVER have the least concern for his safety and him getting his "loves" while he is there. I am tickled to death that they will be having overnight stays sometime in June. I will leave him there with them before I would allow my family take care of him and they have dogs! I know he will be 100% taken care of. I highly recommend them.

In fact, when I ask Whiskey if he wants to go to "school," his face lights up like a kid on Christmas morning.

I want to thank the staff at the Woof for always being the absolute best in caring for our Lovie. They're such a wonderful, professional and accommodating group of folks.

The day care has been the best investment for my dog to be properly socialized with new people and dogs of all sizes. This has kept him in check when we have company at home.

Their overnight options are also wonderful and my Rhodesian Ridgeback has been more than happy to come back for stays in the slumber party room with an employees attention on him all night. (They stay in the room with the pets) that is unless you book the private bed and breakfast suites. I give them five stars all around! Thank you for everything you do at Fur the Love of Dogs.
