Fur baby all clean and new coat with no matting or tangled hair after seeing Kristen.
Genevieve K.

Wow! I'm lost for words! My fur baby has never looked SOOOO GOOD! Kristen is absolutely AMAZING! Even though my baby wasn't so nice to her (I'm so sorry Kristen :( ) she was sweet, caring and loving to my baby. She made him look amazing, he is a Havantzu, Havanese with Shih tzu, so his hair gets really matted and tangled. She cleaned him up and you can tell he feels so much better. Im happy and thankful I'll be able to take him back for his next appointment. Best Grooming In Tampa!

I am SO impressed with this dog grooming business! My daughter's small dog was very matted. She is also an extremely fearful dog and cries like a maniac whenever we have taken her to groomers. In fact, when we have taken her elsewhere in the past, they also always needed an extra few hours and many more dollars than originally requested to complete the job. We didn't really expect much different from this place, we had tried so many others. When we brought Luci in to be groomed she was doing her usual terrified scream/crying. The grooming itself took about an hour and a half from when we brought her in. No extra time or up-charges. When my husband picked her up, she was beautifully groomed, no nicks, smelled great and was sporting an adorable bandana. The most surprising thing was - Luci is usually angry for the rest of the day after getting groomed and barks at every little thing. Luci came home clean, beautiful, and CALM!!! For the first time ever!!! These people are PURE MAGIC. Thank you for a wonderful experience, Hairy Hound!!! You have a very satisfied life-long customer.

Great job cut her Exactly the way I wanted so kind and caring first time there very happy with them highly recommend

After a less than stellar experience with another groomer we decided to take our 5 month old Goldendoodle to The Hairy Hound based on yelp reviews. Ruth and her team were great from start to finish and Luna got the cut we were looking for. Despite the longer drive to their location I'm sure we'll be bringing here her moving forward.

The Hairy Hound is located at a shopping plaza that seems questionable at first glance. But don't let that fool you as the shop itself is a clean and friendly place. Amanda at Hairy Hound is my go to person to groom my 2 yorkie boys. She is the best groomer that we have encountered. If she leaves, I would be crazy enough to follow her even if out of state. Prices are reasonable: $49 for full grooming for a small dog. They usually come out smelling like coconut shampoo with a fun bowtie or bandana for the boy fur babies. Tip: First time client can get $5 if you check in using the Yelp app or mention the offer.

GREAT SERVICE

First time at Hairy Hound! Excellent customer service and Lisa did a great job grooming our guy. Highly recommend!

Always love how my pup looks when she walks out of here, no problems, never ever any issues, and they listen to me and that's what's most important Khalessi loves going here too. I will never use anyone else to groom my Havanese. Thank you Hairy Hound for always listening and taking such great care of our pup Khalessi. She looks beautiful!!!!!

Brielle R.

I am so happy about the Hairy Hound. The best of the best. Ruth did absolutely incredible work on my little boy!! I don't think I've ever had him get a cut and Wash I was so happy with! Even being 40 mins away from me I'll happily take that drive too know my little boy is safe in good hands and going to come home looking and smelling like a million bucks!

Ollie, our 60 lb labradoodle. Before and after!

See all

My Tootsie is in desperate need of a nail clipping but she is never cooperative at all. She is sweet but she will pull away and fidget when anyone tries. Do you have a special thing you do to get those difficult pups to let you trim their nails?

I have a Rat Terrier Chihuahua mix who's nails are "out of control." I can't cut them without hurting him because of the "quick" being too long. Can you help?

We are no longer offering just nail trims but can offer you a bath, which would include nails trimmed and dremeled plus ear cleaning. The price is $29 and we can usually get you in same day. Please call the salon tomorrow at 727-449-0110 if you… Read more

I have a VERY LARGE dog, and his nails are out of control. Any recommendations on a groomer who can handle him? He's a huge crybaby too.

We have walk-in appointments Tues-Sats, 10-3:30 Trims are $12 Dremel is $15… Read more

I was visiting from out of town and needed to get three very furry maltipoos groomed. I have used…read moremobile grooming in the past and was much more comfortable knowing that I was literally steps away if needed. In addition, the prices were very much comparable or better than most of the brick and mortar grooming establishments that I had contacted. I contacted Tammy and found her to be responsive, friendly, and she made it super easy to book. I have one 'special needs' boy who needs to be cut standing, which can be a chore. Tammy had no problem with that. She is a former veterianrian techinician and that was extra peace of mind for me. On the day of the appointment, she sent me a text to let me know she was on her way. She arrived on time and was able to pull her truck and grooming trailer right in front of the house. The trailer is self-contained and very clean. She ensured that she understood the type of cut I wanted and then greeted my dogs. They were very comfortable with her immediately and climbed right into the grooming trailer without hesitation. I was extremely pleased with the cuts. Tammy also gave me some great nutrition and care advice on an issue that no one else seems to be able to pinpoint. Her advice has really helped. I really appreciated the extra care and concern in addition to the fantastic grooming. The cute bows and bandanas were a super nice touch. If you are in the market for mobile grooming, I absolutely recommend that you give Pet Grooming On The Go a shot.

Due to my job I have to work 12 hours a day and can't leave him home. They are so understanding and accommodating where I can drop him off early before opening and pick him up right after closing. The staff is wonderful, I see the live feed and they play with all the dogs hug them, give them pets and attention. They give my pup breaks when he needs them. They know what the dogs need and so intuitive. The place is clean and never smells like animals. On the live feed you see the employees clean up right away when the dog pees or poops. The staff is so friendly and look like they're happy working there. They truly care about the dogs and owners well being. I wouldn't trade them for the world. Amazing job. Oh and by the way they have a splash pad for the doggies who love water!! They have big dog and small dog play areas. Each have an inside and an outside and the dogs can come and go in and out when they want. The prices are super reasonable and great value packages. I can't recommend them enough. Anyone working super early or super late and need a daycare or boarding this is the place. A lot of my coworkers bring their pets here.

I have used both AVIPS boarding and nail trimming services, and both times had a great experience…read more My dog is difficult with her nails being done and the staff had her out in under 10 minutes, nails done perfectly, not freaked out or scared at all (which is how she comes out after getting them done at the vets office!) If anything, I would highly recommend bringing your dog here even just to get their nails done! I boarded her at AVIP for a short period of time as well as using their services for her nailtrim. I was dropping off on a Sunday, and driving from Pensacola I was going to be a couple minutes late to drop her off. I called the store when I knew I was going to be late and the staff stayed late to take us in. They do charge a late fee at this facility, but worth it considering that the staff had to stay late for us, and the level of care we were given, as customers who arrived past closing, rivalled the level of care recieved when arriving on time at other pet care facilities in the area. *The woman at the front desk was careful to relieve my fears as a first time boarder and answered every question I had... *My dog had a leg injury at the time of her boarding and the staff was very accommodating of her injury and even administered her pain medication for her every night during her stay! *The bath she retrieved at departure was high tier, she left smelling and looking better then she did when I dropped her off. AVIP comes highly recommended by myself and my pup, and we will be using their services in the future!
