    My Zoe after her Scallywags grooming.
    Mandy O.

    i don't have any kids but what I do have is an adorable King Charles Cavalier Spaniel I've had since high school. Like most dog owners, I treat her as if she is my human child and, therefore, want only the absolute best for her. Over the years I've always scouted the best groomer to use for her and I found Scallywags, which is truly one of the best groomers I've ever had. Finding a good dog groomer can be hard especially when you have an elderly pet. As my Zoe has gotten older she has a touch of arthritis and cannot stand for long periods of time on a groomer's table, which I've never liked anyway. It's stressful on a pet. Scallywags goes above and beyond to honor any request that you have and they even use the hammock harness for Zoe so she can kinda swing/hang there without having to stand on her little legs while she is groomed. They are very gentle and friendly and for an extremely finicky (and slightly cantankerous) dog, it's good to see her bound in and out of there with a wagging tail. I sincerely hope anyone who needs a good groomer in the shore area reads this and goes to Scallywags. Don't bother with Petsmart and any other chain grooming service. They don't honor special requests and needs for your pet and put them through a sort of grooming assembly line with, often, inexperienced workers. For about $60, it's a steal that makes me and the pooch quite happy! They even go a step above and beyond and dress her up with bows behind her ears (see photo). Now that's a happy and cute pup!

    My pooch, fresh from Scallywags!

    The first time I brought my dog to Scallywags, my dog emerged looking great. Even better, she was relaxed and happy- just take a look at her pic!Since then, I've kept coming back. Highly recommend.

    See all

Before they meet your pet, Susan gives her employees an overview of what your pets likes, dislikes and issues are. That ensures when they come to your home for the first time, it will be with ease. They are also great at overnight stays in your home. When I go on vacation, I absolutely can leave with a clear mind knowing I have someone who will take total care of my pet(s) responsibly. They are also wonderful with cats as well! I have 2. Suzanne Brick, NJ

I feel completely at ease when I need to go out for the day knowing my dog will be walked and fed and most importantly loved. I had someone stay in my home for 2 nights last year with my dog and 2 cats when my daughter got married, and it was a stress free weekend . Next month someone will be staying again while my husband and I are away for a few days and it will make the trip that much more enjoyable knowing they will be well cared for. Susan and her staff are wonderful, caring people who are completely professional and reliable and I would highly recommend them . They always leave a note about what went on while we were gone, and I had pictures and texts sent when we were away overnight assuring me all was well. We are so lucky to have found them!

    Our vet of 18 years retired... we had a 12 year old dog and two cats which were part of our family…read moreand we never thought we would find another Vet which could compare... but thankfully, Bridge Vet was referred to us and they exceeded all past experiences. They are just incredible people. Talented, caring, know how to run a business efficiently without it ever feeling like a business. They genuinely love every pet and, just having to had put our dog to sleep, they could not have been better on the care over the past few years and especially the past year with our dog. Tender with her and gave us all the options to help her have the best life and the most gentle passing. We were lucky enough to always have Jenna Koenigstein, DVM - can't say enough about her as a Vet and as a person. Thank you BVHVET

    I have a nervous 7 year old shepherd mix, so when we relocated to Point Pleasant earlier this…read moresummer it was a top priority to establish care with a vet who was willing to be patient with him. He is also 90 lbs and his size can create a unique challenge. We've struggle in the past to find a vet who would build trust and work with him vs. rushing to full sedation. I was blown away by the care we received from Dr. Koenigstein. She prescribed a comfort pack for him to take in advance of his appointment, and was very gracious when he was too stubborn to enter the exam room. She spent a great deal of time with him to make him comfortable with her. She also let me stay with my dog during the entire visit, which I think went a long way in keeping him relaxed. As a team of three (the vet tech, Ashley, was amazing too!), we soothed my dog and kept him comfortable through the exam, vaccinations, and even a nail trim. I feel so fortunate to have found this place and would absolutely recommend it to all pet lovers in the local area!

    We hired Scott to train our puppy. After reading his reviews we thought he would be great with our…read morepup. We decided to go with the 10-day board and train. We made him a wish list like he asked of everything he would work on while he has the dog. After the 10 days, he brought our pup back and she was super excited to be back home. Scott assured us this is normal and that he would schedule a follow up visit with us and the dog to go over everything he worked on while our dog was with him. We schedule for the following Saturday. Saturday morning came and I got a text from Scott that he had to cancel our appointment. He offered to come on Sunday. Sunday came and Scott once again didn't show up and I didn't get a text until about an hour and half after our scheduled appointment that he couldn't come. At this point we realized that Scott had no intention of coming back and we just wasted $1500. His lack of professionalism and failure to show up, along with the absence of results, left us feeling disappointed and taken advantage of.

We set up an orientation in Belmar and at that time, Francis and Boogie the pup (Scott's dog) hit it off. After we left Francis with Scott, he put me at ease by sending me his videos and pictures everyday. As a pet parent, naturally I am a bit anxious leaving Francis behind, but the regular photo and video updates from Scott I was able to enjoy my trip worry free. I definitely recommend Scott. Scott is unique in that he only boards one dog at a time, which allows the dog to get a lot more attention than in other boarding settings; as such, his rates tend to be slightly higher at around $65/night (give or take). Francis was definitely a bit sad the day we brought him home due to all the fun he had with his buddy Boogie. NOTE: must text him and sometimes remind for updates, but he does come through as he maintains a busy schedule as a dog trainer.
