First time taking my puppy here and I was very satisfied with the results! He previously had a bad experience at PetSmart, where they weren't really willing to work with him, and it unfortunately made him fearful of haircuts and grooming. I explained this to them, and they were so patient and gentle with him. They took their time, worked at his pace, and really made an effort to make him feel safe and comfortable instead of forcing him. I could tell he had a completely different experience this time. His haircut came out absolutely adorable and exactly what I wanted! I really appreciate the care and patience they showed my puppy. Definitely found his new grooming place and will be coming back!

Cuts on her face
Tatyana C.

I will NEVER COME HERE AGAIN. I took my maltipoo last week. I took her here maybe once before years ago. This is not my normal groomer. My dog just went to the vet for a physical exam just hours before and there were no issues. She is an indoor dog & does not socialize with any other dogs. She has never had an open wound, nor any incident with any other groomer in her life (5 years). My dog came home with cuts on her legs and face and I just found another on her ear this morning (it was masked by hair). I contacted the company and the groomer said the scab on her legs must have got caught on the clippers. She also said she doesn't like being cut on her face. I do not believe either of these statements. She has never had issue at any other groomer. My main complaint is that none of these were mentioned to me when I picked her up. It was only said after I called and told them what I found. The owner did contact me and apologize and offered to refund half the grooming price. I do appreciate that. However, Now that I found another cut on her ear, I'm honestly even more upset. There is no way that she went in there with all these cuts without my knowledge and without a licensed vet noticing them. She didn't because those cuts weren't there prior to her grooming, although the groomer claims they were. I should've have requested a full refund and medical care/products. Although I did receive an apology after contacting them, it doesn't negate this fact this shouldn't have ever happened. Now I have to spend money tend to her wounds medically and don't know what to do since this has never happened before. I'm just very irritated with the whole situation and hope I don't find any more cuts.

Great experience at The Good Dog! Booking an appointment was easy and they were very responsive. When i dropped off my pup, we felt very welcomed by Miguel. The appointment only took an hour, she looks so fluffy and they nailed the corgi butt i wanted!

We have been coming to the Good Dog for almost 2 years since moving to the area. The Good Dog takes care of our food and grooming needs and we have never had an issue with both our pups grooming. Nick always helps us with any diet needs whether it's for allergies or a change up due to our pups becoming more picky. They are always good to us and that's why we continue to give them our business!

They did an awesome job. I've been here maybe 5 or 6 other times previously and this one is by far the best cut he's had. He normally hates haircuts because he had got injured at a public pet store chain, but he was great today. Didn't need any calming treats or drops. Was ready in about 90 minutes and you can see how happy he looks. He loves his new cut and so does the family!

Leo's first grooming at The Good Dog was a great experience!

Puppy Pampering Pet Spa - After, a happy pup!

We used Yelp to find and reach out to the groomer. After inquiring on full grooming rates, we made…read moretwo separate appointments for our dogs. Atmosphere in the groomer's shop was nice and clean and no hint of any odor at all which is a big plus. Another plus is that we got back our fur babies in an hour and a half--no kennel no cages. The groomer, Lee was very patient with our dogs. She said our puppy even fell asleep during the grooming. She sent us pictures of what had been done and also the before and after pictures. She also messaged us when our dogs will be ready to be picked up. Overall, good experience, good communication---highly recommended. We will definitely be back.

I had a wonderful first visit here. I have been searching for almost a year for a new groomer and I…read morebelieve I have finally found one. My dog has never been kenneled, so finding a place that would not kennel her was very important to me. This groomer has a little play area that your pup can walk freely in before and after their appointment. Right when we walked in my dog was not scared at all, a little anxious because it was a new place but not scared. When I picked her up after her appointment she was relaxed and happy. My dog felt very safe here and she was definitely in good hands. I loved the way my dog was groomed and the amount of time and price are very reasonable. She was very responsive to my questions and she even sent me before and after photos of my pup when I was on my way to pick her up (she will give you a heads up before she is done so you can pick your dog up right after she is finished). I can tell the owner actually cares about animals and she is incredibly friendly. I definitely recommend this groomer!
