Love Suds 'N Scissors! I've been taking my goldendoodle here for about a year after having back luck with other groomers in the area. The team at Suds 'N Scissors is efficient and always does an amazing job. My dog is done quickly and comes back happy! read more

Our dog Gracie pulls on her leash to be the first dog to see everyone at Suds n Scissors! Dogs don't lie! Their staff and booking method is exceptional! read more

We love Suds n Scissors! We were referred to Todd his staff and his fabulous grooming salon for our show girl. We had the best experience and were helped with patience understanding and a very generous professionalism hardly seen. Our girl now has a significantly healthier coat and no longer hates grooming time and we don't either. Our very first interaction changed our lives read more

Suds 'N Scissors - Pet Stores Near Me - Carmel, California

Still disgusted I was charged 110 dollars a dog. No thanks to this place people ask me all the time do I recommend a groomer and I make sure to tell them anywhere but here. read more

I've been going to suds and Scissors for over ten years and owner Todd has always been polite and welcoming. I took my dog in for his bath and cut like I had been doing for ten years and was greeted by the fairly new assistant manager told I did not follow the instructions correctly on their website, that it was "easy even his partner could do it" and could not have grooming done, that my dog would probably need a shave down anyway! All this without looking or touching my dog. I told him I had been coming in for over ten years, every six weeks and he didn't care. He even began talking about me with another groomer before I had left the shop. I will not be going there again nor recommending them. I hope Todd realizes what a rude and condescending employee he has at his front desk. I imagine other people getting this same service. read more

I have been bringing my Havaneese to Suds"N Scissors for 14 years and wouldn't go anywhere else. Todd and his staff are amazing! Kathryn read more

One 1/2 stars only because the animals look pretty good when they're finished. Other than that the customer service is perhaps the worst I've been associated with, a -5 And for the price this business charges for its mediocre services is not worth my time and certainly not my money. Just hope it's not a reflection of the rest of businesses in Carmel!!! read more

I have a long haired Siberian husky and there aren't that many places that can do the job/ do it well.... so when we took a chance with suds n scissors we were EXTREMELY impressed!!! He was so matted at the chest and really just looked so out of sorts lol. Now he looks like he could enter a show! They gave him a corgi butt which is super cute! It was definitely pricey but then again they did an amazing job/ I have a long haired husky! read more

Our Golden Retriever loves going to Suds and Scissors. She races to get in there and comes out always look gorgeous with a cute bow on her collar. The staff is always very friendly! read more

Very professional and hardworking crew! Suds and Scissors has been grooming my pups for 15 years. Todd always gives a great cut and my doodle Josie loves David her groomer. Tail wagging in and happy when we pick her up. No skimping on the products used. Safe and secure shop. A little expensive but worth every penny. read more

They did a fantastic job on my Australian Shepherd! He had some matting on his backside and the feathers on his legs. I was sure they would have to cut them out or shave him, as previous groomers have done. NOT SO!!! I was thrilled when I went to pick him up! They took the time and patience to comb out the matting and he looked just perfect! I could not be happier! Thank you so much! Buster will be a regular! read more

I really loved Duchess's hair cut that she received today. Just the way I like it. Perfect!

The staff is kind and fast at Suds 'N Scissors. I always look cute and feel good after my shampoo & trim! I've been a regular since Gin adopted me from Peace Of Mind nearly 5 years ago. Thanks, Todd and Groomers-Zoe W read more

My husband and I would like to know what on earth did you do to my dog to help make his coat look and feel ever fluffy!!!!?!!! Even 2 weeks out! My dog pepper is so cute!! Your groomer made him look like a puppy and even his eyes are looking younger! I have a 12 yr old black toy poodle, and I am so happy we were able to drop him off for a same day appointment( it was a long shot), very grateful for the fabulous job you guys did! Also the colorful bandana around the collar is awesome!! He scares less people in the dark :-) jk, it is awesome though and good quality, thanks!! I had pepper groomed only a few weeks before this visit, but we had traveled through the mountains, got married, stopped in sf before Carmel, and he needed some spa time-- you guys deserve this rave because even his little paws are groomed subtly and daintily, which I can tell even he loves! His little cotton tail is so perfectly round! Also I notice his nails were groomed and filed above where they were clipped for a smooth nail surface and it's that kind of detail I just can't tell you how much I appreciate! Apparently you guys are doing it all right, jut wanted to drop by you page and give you the well deserved excellent review! I would highly recommend this groomer. And will certainly be back the next time I am in Carmel! read more

Suds 'N Scissors - This is Pepper, my 12 yo toy poodle. He looks like a puppy but I believe seniors should be treated as well as babies anyway! - Pet Stores Near Me - Carmel, California

Took my Labradoodle here today to fix a horrible grooming job done last week at California Groomin. They are miracle workers! They were able to even her coat out and make her look beautiful again. I always had her groomed at Suds n Scissors and was very happy, but got desperate when they were closed due to Covid so I went elsewhere. Never again! They are pricey, but you get what you pay for. read more

I've been taking my Golden Retriever to Suds 'N Scissors for about a year after moving to Carmel. They always do a beautiful job on her and people make such as a fuss over her as we're leaving the shopping center! I foster small dogs for Jake's Wish Dog rescue and recently had a foster dog that was in desperate need of grooming so I decided to drop in and ask if they might be willing to help, and they did not hesitate. Renae and Rebecca made her look beautiful and did it with a smile. I LOVE supporting businesses that also support what I value. Thanks you Suds 'N Scissors! read more

Dog whisperers who not only do a spectacular job cleaning/clipping/fluffing our pups but welcome our "special needs" pup Kenya who's got issues. Just saying we're beyond grateful read more

I have been going here for a number of years. First with my cocker spaniels, then with my couton. I have been more than pleased with the work that they do. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend this grooming establishment. read more

I've been having my dogs groomed here for years. They are friendly, professional, and provide excellent service. I have a Miniature Schnauzer who requires a very specific haircut. She always looks "show" ready when don. They are truly the Best in Grooming. read more

Best groomers on the Peninsula. First time our fur child "Daisy" has been groomed here. I was able to get her in two days after making the appointment. The employees were very nice and very professional. I will definitely recommend them. Daisy looks beautiful. Thank you Suds & Scissors. read more

One of the best haircuts my wheaten terrier has ever had! Matthew is amazing when it comes to beautiful grooming. They are a little more expensive that other groomers in the area, but soooo worth it. Would definitely recommend, especially Matthew. read more

Wonderful service. Well organized flow for work. Quality staff., who are great with dogs. We have two dogs who get a deep brushing - furnicator treatment. read more

These guys are wonderful. My dog is super clean and silky and doesn't seem at all traumatized by going to the groomer without me (she can get separation anxiety). Rene did such a thorough job removing a huge among of fur from my collie. In the past other groomers have injured my poor dog because with all the fur they get overzealous and pull her skin or scrape her flesh. But my baby looks wonderful and everything was done perfectly. They were also very flexible about timing and didn't take very long. Highly recommend. read more

Having tried a few dog groomers I have found Suds 'Scissors to be the best for top quality grooming, clean and pleasant environment, cheerful staff and comfortable (if not happy) dogs. I dropped off a VERY hairy dog and got back a beautifully and proportionally sculpted dog. His coat went from long to short, had the sculpted look (that is characteristic of Golden Doodles) and his face/whiskers were perfectly cut! Todd listened to my thoughts and then perfected them. I highly recommend Todd and his group! read more

Nice people but do not do well with energetic dogs. We have a high energy bigger dog but super friendly. Felt like they just gave up. Only took 4 minutes. I get denying the mean aggressive dogs especially unfriendly dogs but this one is fun just hyper. Grooming by the sea handles bigger more energetic pups if they turn you down. read more

We have taken three different dogs here for grooming for years and they do their magic. I have tried washing my own dogs, but they never come out as silky and clean as Suds N Scissors can do. They were able to continue with covid precautions during the pandemic, but now they are fully open. They send text reminders for appointments, drop off is quick and easy, and you get a text for pickup. The staff seems kind and caring about the pets and I would highly recommend Suds N Scissors for your pet. read more

This place is horrible! I would rathar bath my dog myself and get filthy then ever step foot in here again. I made an appointment online for a Saturday because of work was the only day I could take my dog. I'm a single mom of two kids so everything has to work. This place called me mid week and told me because I had put that my dog had mild anxiety and to be careful with him please asking them, well they said they couldn't care for my dog. I told them he's been to a groomer many times and he is fine I assured them but they wouldn't take him. My dog really needed the care. Good thing I have a great step mother willing to take the time to care for him and to a groomer or my dog would still need a grooming. This place sucks and can eat it! You suck suds and suckers! Please go away! read more

I'm so happy I found a wonderful groomer here in the Monterey Bay Area. Moving from Fresno and leaving my groomer was very hard for me because my little boy is my baby . Todd was very nice and knew exactly how I wanted my little Shih Tzu to look . My boy was soft, fluffy and happy . He was wagging his tail when I picked him up and not at all stressed . Totally worth the price and saves me a 3 hour drive to Fresno :) . Thank you Todd and staff for giving Guy a great do ! You have a new customer for life ! read more

Update Review: I am sad to report that this place is only interested in making money. The owner and the staff pretend to care, but behind close doors, they push your dog through the process, as quickly as possible. The owner can care less about you or your dog. The last conversation I had with the owner was that my dog was being diagnosed at the Vet due to a seizure. That was the last time I heard from the owner. If it isn't making him money, he simply doesn't care about you or your dog, The Vet test results showed that my dog had an enlarged esophagus, due to some kind of traumatic event. Through my research of finding another groomer, I was advised that this wasn't the first time something like this happened at Suds N' Scissors. Never in my life have I been so disappointed with a place of business. I highly recommend that you find a different place. One that truly cares about you and your pets. read more

Suds n scissors does a great job on our wheaten terrier. I like how efficient they are.

Harpo and Cinnie love this place. They walk in a total mess from their runs on the beach which unavoidably include getting drenched and rolling in the sand and they walk out gorgeous and feeling good! Extremely nice staff and great service! read more

Another big "Thank you" to Todd and staff for taking the time to rid our Cavipoo of pesky tangles. Suds n Scissors is a very conscientious and caring establishment. read more

Wow, these folks know what they're doing! They can handle different breeds and different styles. They're fast, proficient, and thorough!

Brought my little Maltees then 13yr she was deaf and blind,she was scared I told them that ,granted she was 6 lbs I told them I would pick her up as soon as they were done because of her being afraid and she didn't know where she was so when they didnt call I called them,yes she was done ,when I got there I could her her crying really loud,I said o is that her ,the owner was pissed he said yes she has been doing this for a long time I said why didn't you call me when she was done ,he just gave me a dirty look went and got her ,poor baby I felt so bad then he charged me 80 dollars just to give her a bath and blow dry,just because he is in Carmel doesn't mean there good or nice. read more

These folks take their service seriously! You can very well see that they put a lot of effort and care into the well being of the pet and satisfying your pet and the owners. Our dog is always greeted by name on arrival. We have a Havanese dog that is particular about who touches her, as she was mistreated prior to us. She will growl and may try to bite whenever somebody tries to touch her front paws. Todd understands our dogs behavior which is a result of puppy trauma. Todd listens, explains his process and does his best. Libboo always comes out happy and looking good. Although they say they had a hard time trying to trim her front legs, they still give her a good haircut! We will coming back! Great service, worth every penny! Todd is very professional and a pleasure to work with. Keep it up guys! read more

"Eek, methinks not" is what 1 star is described as in Yelp. Please note that I received my service in Feb 2010 and things may have improved. I hope so. I concur with many other reviews on the net, that the staff here are "lacking". However, my dog is family to me, if you are not so attached to your pet, this place does an excellent job of grooming. The space is very small; I would be uncomfortable working there. When I picked up my dog, she was in a crate stacked 3 or 4 high, if my memory is correct. For a customer who was going to pay $70 for a pet grooming, I thought I was treated much too curtly. That made me think, how on earth did they treat my dog. I do hope to read better reviews in the future, as I'd love to give this shop a second chance. read more

Very unfriendly. I have two champion dogs, that I was told were too sensitive to the groomers touch. Odd comment considering they normally love being groomed. They don't seem to really like dogs, so why go into the dog grooming business. read more

Walked into the place walked up to the counter. Four people standing there didn't ask if I needed help or didn't say be with you in a second. So I walked out the door as I was doing that I said in a loud voice "thank you for your help". Won't be going there ever again !!! read more

This place is great! I had been taking my dog to Petsmart and she had been acting up; screaming terribly and howling (very unlike her, she is a tame cuddly ball of fluff). I thought it was her having anxiety issues until someone suggested it might have been the environment or employees at Petsmart... You can't see what they're doing to your dog, so it very well could have been the problem. At Suds & Scissors you can see everything your dog is having done, and the staff is impeccable! From the very first phone call I was left with a positive feeling. Their staff is caring and upbeat, as well as accommodating and attentive. I called at around noon and was able to get an appointment between 2-3pm the same day! Its a very nice place, and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog there. Upon my return the employees all agreed that my dog had been nothing but sweet and calm, which I questioned them about, explaining the previous episodes. They had a hard time beliving that she could even come close to acting the way she did (as did I when I first witnessed the behavior), and left completely happy without a single whine or yelp. Again, the staff is great and it's a wonderful place to take your pet! It costs about what you'd expect a decent grooming salon to cost; not terribly expensive but not as cheap as a chain might be. A full bath for her (a Black Lab, about 60 lbs) was $45. read more
