AnimaLuvrs - This is the torture they put her through and shaved her "privates"... Its awful and heartbreaking

Always great customer service . Good brands of dog food …read more Wonderful grooming available by appointment .

After coming here for about 2 years, I am in shock what they did to my sweet doggie. They…read moreliterally butchered her. In November 2024 was the last time, we had a great experience. Today, the groomer Keri tells the cashier/manager that a dog she was grooming did not like her. This concerned me as my dog has been dreading walking in their door and wanting to run out. She use to walk in tail wagging and happy. I said please talk nice to my baby and be gentle. She is a sweet sensitive lover. Because they were so busy with bunches of dogs last time, I just had her get a bath instead of a cut. So, her hair was longer, but brushes out super easy with a Wet brand brush. Later I get a call from the groomer, saying the comb she uses was not getting her knots out easy and proceeded to tell me that she gave her a short skirt, but that "hair grows". I get there and she is butchered with her privates shaved where I have never seen anything like it and she has skin showing at her eye area with the aggressive action. I feel terrible for leaving her in the hands of this abuse and torture chamber. Before I knew the extent of her bad cut, I asked for a bow and was told by the owner that only comes with VIP service. I said, I thought I had VIP service. She looked at my card, and said November was the last time. I paid 90.00 for my 25lb dog and had no idea they took that off my service. I gave a 15% tip too which is lower then I normally do, and regret any tip. -- Meanwhile, the owner reluctantly gave me a .20 cent bow for Oriental Trading Company. And, I was in shock as I left and vowed to never go back or buy any of their food, snacks, toys or grooming again. Cape Coral seems to have better options then Punta Gorda on everything. I am heartbroken what they did to my sweet furbabyzz

Extremely disappointing experience -- poor grooming, terrible customer service, and completely…read moreunprofessional behavior. I would not recommend this business to anyone who values their time, expects professional customer service, or wants their dog to receive a quality grooming experience. My dog deserved better, and so did I. Both of my experiences were absolutely unacceptable from beginning to end. The owner repeatedly failed to honor the time frames she gave me for my dog's grooming appointments. On two separate occasions, I left my dog for three hours, as specifically requested by the owner, only for the grooming to take over four hours. This is not just a minor inconvenience. It caused me to be late for work and interfered with picking up my child from school. Customers have jobs, families, and responsibilities. If you cannot honor the time frames YOU give your customers, at the very least, communicate honestly and professionally. The business also appears incredibly disorganized. Appointments are double-booked, bookings are forgotten, and rather than taking accountability, the owner blamed the delays on being a slow groomer. That is not an excuse for poor scheduling or a lack of consideration for customers' time. What made this experience even worse was the owner's behavior when I attempted to provide reasonable feedback about the repeated delays. Instead of listening, communicating professionally, or acknowledging the inconvenience she had caused, she became verbally aggressive and belligerent. She was screaming, using the F-word, and demanding that I leave. Absolutely appalling behavior from someone running a customer-facing business. Providing feedback about a service you have paid for should not result in being screamed at or verbally attacked. And then there is the grooming itself. My dog's haircut was horrendous. She looks like she was hacked at rather than professionally groomed. The cut is uneven and so poorly done that I genuinely feel I could have done a better job myself. I left my dog in the care of a professional expecting a reasonable level of skill and care, and the result was beyond disappointing. Customers should not have to sacrifice their time, deal with repeated scheduling failures, endure verbal aggression, and then receive a terrible grooming job on top of it all. Based on my experience, this business needs to seriously reevaluate its scheduling practices, grooming quality, customer service, and the owner's ability to handle criticism professionally. A customer's reasonable concerns should never be met with screaming, profanity, and hostility. I would not recommend this business to anyone who values their time, expects professional customer service, or wants their dog to receive a quality grooming experience. My dog deserved better, and so did I. Save yourself the frustration and find a groomer who respects your time, treats you with basic courtesy, and can actually deliver the quality of service you are paying for.
