    I've been taking my sweet Sophia (14 years old) to Simbas Pet Grooming for about two years now, and I can't say enough wonderful things about George. He is extremely loving, gentle, patient, and caring with her every single time. He always welcomes Sophia with so much warmth and respect -- something that means the world to me. It truly feels like taking her to a beauty salon! I schedule an appointment, and in less than two hours, she comes out clean, fresh, beautiful, and pampered by George. Thank you, George, for all your love, tenderness, and dedication to my little piece of heaven, Sophia. I know you treat all the other furry souls with the same kindness and care. He also works with cats, big dogs, tiny dogs, and even has adorable parrots and a big macaw who help brighten the salon. His shop is a reflection of his heart -- full of love and positive energy. George is constantly learning and improving his skills, and I can truly say he loves what he does. I trust him completely and highly recommend Simbas Pet Grooming to anyone who wants their pets cared for with genuine love and professionalism.

    George is the best pet groomer in the entire greater LA area. He is a professional, skilled groomer who provided exceptionally great service grooming my Persian/Himalayan cat Katya. I appreciate his skills and very kind approach when he providing service to my cat. #bestcatgroomer #bestpetgroomer

    We took our 7 month old puppy for 1st time to Simba Pet Groomers. They gave great service and took great care of our puppy. My wife loved his new look. Maki says THANK YOU for making him look so gorgeous!

    I couldn't be happier with my experience at Simba's Pet Grooming. My cat's cut came out absolutely perfect; clean, even, and exactly as I requested. She's a Scottish Straight with a very anxious temperament, yet when I picked her up, she was completely relaxed and comfortable, something I've never seen after a grooming appointment. The salon itself is immaculate, beautifully decorated, and peaceful, and the location in a quiet standalone bungalow (not a busy shopping center) made the experience even more pleasant. After trying five different groomers (some charging over $200 for careless, patchy, even harmful work) I finally found someone who truly knows what they're doing. Gevork, the owner, is professional, kind, and incredibly skilled. He listened carefully to every instruction and delivered better than I imagined. If you're looking for a groomer who's not only talented but also gentle and trustworthy, I highly recommend Simba's. 10/10!!!best grooming experience ever.

    George was great with my babies, they were totally at ease with him. He asked questions and did a great job with their grooming! I like to have their hair a little short because they play so much outside. So happy to find him after my groomer moved!

    Our pup looking dapper

    George was great with Maximus. This was our first time, and he immediately tried to make him feel comfortable and create a rapport. The cut was very well done, and I was impressed that he was able to get Max to cooperate with all of the "full service" treatments as he's often difficult. As you can see from the picture, he can away happy and handsome! He even got a Christmas bow. We'll be back.

    After searching for months and months online- we finally found someone who we felt comfortable with cutting our fur babies double coat - I was so scared due to the horror stories I've heard and seen from other Pom parents, when accidentally choosing the wrong groomers!! We made sure to do extensive research to find someone who specializes in Pom cuts and knows how important it is not to damage the under coat, as it could never grow back. We finally booked and drove Over an Hour to bring Dolce' to the best option, and WE ARE SO HAPPY with her results!! You can tell she is feeling cooler already. She absolutely loved him and was giving kisses which made me know he definitely treated her well while we are away because she is super picky about people. Simba's pet Grooming will be her groomer for life you cannot beat the price for the quality and the love he puts into his work. Thank You for making our baby even more beautiful!!

    I've been bringing my Pomeranian child to Simba's Pet Grooming for over a year now, and I couldn't be happier with the service! Every time we leave, my pup looks absolutely adorable and clearly feels great. The groomer is gentle, patient, and truly understands how to handle Pomeranians' unique coats and personalities. They always take the time to listen and analyze her needs every time we come in (such as matted fur, allergies,dandruff, dry skin) and give a personalized approach, the results consistently exceed my expectations. The shop is clean, welcoming, and you can tell the team really cares about the animals. Highly recommend to any pet parent looking for a reliable, talented groomer. I finally leave my baby without worries that something bad will happen (too many bad experiences in the past such as injuries, shaving with a blade when you are not supposed to...). Grateful to have found Simba's Pet Grooming! My pom pom finally looks polished, clean and fancy as she is supposed to.

I've been taking bestie here for maybe a year now and I swear he comes back looking even cuter and like himself? His fur is so soft and fluffy. I've had groomers in the past just shave my doggy down and his fur would grow back weird. But my dogs fur grows back nice and soft and actually easier to manage because he has a curly type of hair. Whenever I go I expect to wait a few hours. I do not mind though because my groomer does a beautiful and consistent job each time.

He came out looking fresh, smelling good, happy, along with a cute Fluffy Puppy dog bandana. It's so hard for me to trust anyone with Goji, but Fluffy Puppy has proved themselves time and again that they are so careful and good at what they do! Thanks to all!

Dude almost died when we had to remove all his teeth. When we adopted him and his partner, they were super neglected advance case rescues--and this little guy has bad lungs, liver, pancreas, and personality (IYKYK these little jerks). In 2025, after we took out the poor guy's remaining teeth, his pancreas started failing post-op. It took us about 6 months to get him back to health. In that time, he lost a ton of weight and most of his hair. His butt was actually bald! Then, miraculously, or through pure yorkie dark side terrier magic, he actually got MORE healthy with MORE hair...but different hair, and different texture, and even different colors! It is wild. Today, we took him in for his first groom since being on the verge of death, and the little guy looks like a puppy again. He clearly feels great with the last few months of bulk coming off. In any case, this is THE best spot for getting your dog groomed if you need to know that they will be treated right. I am so worried 24/7 about this little fragile dude, and Roch and Gertrude is the only place I leave him besides the vet where I cannot keep eyes on him.

My wife came across R&G when looking for dog groomers and we've been coming back to R&G regularly since 2019. Later, in 2021 we rescued another little senior dog named Mimi. She had a bit more sass than Max and unfortunately her last owners hadn't done the best job caring for her coat. R&G treated her with so much love and respect that they were able to give her a bath and give her a great looking trim that we almost didn't recognize her. She looked like a refreshed dog. Unfortunately, Mimi passed in 2023 but R&G was also caring enough to be there for us as we navigated that loss. To this day we continue to recommend R&G to anyone looking for a dog groomer because they will treat their pets like the family they are. Even though we moved 40+ minutes away from Pasadena, we still make the drive to come here because they are worth it. Leanne, Elizabeth, Jasmine, and the team are caring to both our dogs and to us and we will continue to come to R&G for our dog grooming needs.

When a last-minute work trip came up, I frantically searched for a facility to board her, as we weren't totally happy with the 2 other facilities we previously tried. From our first communication with Puppy Island, we knew Sage would be in great hands. I took her in for an assessment and couldn't believe how enthusiastic the staff was to meet her. She took to them immediately and had to be dragged back out to the car. The team sent us tons of photos and videos every day and made sure to double check our dog's feeding and medicine schedule. Extra special shoutout to JESS, who went above and beyond for us and for Sage. They are bonded for life. We will not hesitate to bring our dog back to Puppy Island.

At pick up, the manager gushed about how much they loved her & claimed she may have even gained weight. That was a lie. The moment I saw her, I knew something was wrong. She had lost 5lbs, was wheezing, visibly weak & totally withdrawn. At home, she curled into a ball, wouldn't eat or drink & had green/pink snot running from her nose. To make it worse (even though I paid for grooming) she was filthy. Her coat was crusted w/ buildup & flakes. It looked like she hadn't been touched. I contacted the staff again hours later to ask what happened. Their reply? Dismissive & full of excuses. By the next day, I had to rush her to the vet. She was diagnosed w/ severe pneumonia & hospitalized for 3.5 days. The medical team was alarmed by how sick she was... that vet bill? $3.5K+ the emotional toll? don't even get me started! This wasn't a simple miscommunication... it was gross negligence & a complete lack of accountability. Sharing before and after photos so you can see for yourself. The contrast is heartbreaking.
