Teddy modelled his sweater for us!!

A shop with a great selection of quality products! Their customer service is exceptional and their delivery very efficient! They give the personal touch with everything they do. Teddy, my handsome Cockapoo looks smashing in his T sweater!!

this is supposed to be a labradoodle not a squirrel.

HAve taken my 11 month old Labradoodle here before for a trim and nail clip. They did a great job. However, this last time I took him in i did say that he needed to be shaved but was not expecting this. He did have some matting in his hair but they cut him soooo short as well as his face and ears. Not sure why they did the tail so he looks like a squirrel and shaved a bit of his tail where it meets his back. Reggie has been acting very strange after as well. Seems very skidding/on edge and a bit traumatized. I am upset with the results and wish they had explained or called before cutting him so short (it's the face and ears that are the most shocking) Will not be bringing him back for a grooming.

Like WTF?!

Sooooooo.. I was well aware that my ShiPoo had horrible matting, which I thoroughly explained to the gentlemen on the phone when I made the appointment. Let me preface by saying that this would have been my first time patronizing this establishment, whereby I usually take Harlem to Petsmart in Etobicoke (who, by the way have no issues with matting). The gentlemam stated that matting would be extra, to which I was amenable too as I fully understood Harlem's condition. Fast forward to this morning, when I entered Timmies, I was met with a lady, who immediately informed me that my dog was very very nervous, uhmmmm yeah, it's his first time there and you shoved you hand in his nose without warning. She then hmmms and hawsss, repeatedly calls Harlem a she and states that the most she can do is shave him down. After a few minutes, I come around to the idea and even though my spidey senses were tingling, I eventually leave him with her, first mistake. Maybe 2 hours later, a gentlemen calls me to inform me that they could not groom Harlem and he was ready for pick up at my convenience. He reasoned that the matting was too overwhelming for the groomer, can I just admit, that Harlem has been worse, but whatever. I get there a half hour later to greet my dog, who is 60% bald, his head untouched as well as both of his front legs, it's also a very shoddy balding, with patches of hair everywhere, as well as his paws are horrendous. Like no cares taken at all. I was like WTF?! Is this real life?! He starts explaining and all I am hearing is wah wah wah as I am thinking of ways to burn down his establishment, needless to say I am seething. Like what am I supposed to do with a Harlem the Lion King?! I eventually asked him what I owed and replied it was no charge, I am like you dam straight in fact you owe me money cause now I have to scramble to fix this mess. I honestly just had to stop talking. Too make this long story short, I'm convinced that she is not an accredited groomer because I have been to more than 6 groomers in Harlem's 7plus years of life that were better able to meet his grooming needs. Yes, he had extensive matting, but for an established grooming place, that could not have been the first time you've encountered a matted dog. And to end this review, I will never patron this establishment ever again.

Timmies is the best doggie store hands down! Both locations always carry the best of everything for my dogs: treats, food, toys, sweaters, beds, carriers - you name it. If they didn't have something in stock, Paul or Georges have ordered in items for me. The grooming is always top notch. My girls (two teacup Yorkies) have been to both locations and gotten a variety of cuts. They always come out looking perfect. Because they're little and quite anxious, the staff knows to be extra gentle with them and they are!

My 8 yr old shihtzu after grooming- happy puppy!

Great place to bring dog for grooming. The people seem to care about the dogs which makes leaving your puppy a lot easier. My shihtzu isn't used to being groomed by others - it's her 3rd time in her 8 yrs. they did a fantastic job and am very happy with the service. Would recommend this place to others.

A happy pup right after Cassie worked her magic.

After many months of Covid19 home grooming, we finally called George and made our first appointment with Cassie at Timmies; and I am SO glad we did! It might seem a little extreme, since we drove from over an hour away to visit Timmies for Brynnley's grooming appointment, and let me tell you, it was SO worth it! We've always thought our sweet puppy was a cutie, but I never could've imagined just how adorable she could be. We are thrilled with Cassie's work! She took her time to give Brynnley adequate time to get used to being groomed by a professional and her feedback afterwards was very encouraging, informative and helpful. Brynnley didn't seem remotely stressed afterwards, only happy to see her Mama so she could show off her new look. Hahaha. The price was incredibly reasonable for the work that was put in to making Brynnley look so beautiful. We cannot wait to go back again to have Cassie work her magic again soon! Thank you Timmies doggie Outfitters! You're truly a cut above the rest!

We take our dog to the groomers and the result is always fantastic. Easy to get an appointment, the service is first rate and really reasonable prices. If you live downtown, definitely give them a try!

My quiet little Shih-poo may be every dog groomer's worst nightmare. Contrary to the usual cooing…read morefrom his grandparents and other random senior citizens, groomers seem, well, somewhat exasperated by him. Sometimes it was a dismayed comment, "what a little monkey your dog is", which is particularly upsetting for the less obvious reason that I had indeed settled for dog instead of actual monkey. Or, an admonishing, "it took 3 of us to groom him" which invariably follows the unspoken: better leave bigger tip. Fortunately, a few years ago after giving up on another Yorkville groomer, I discovered Pawfect Spa. The space is clean and bright and the staff are friendly, but what really got my attention is that the owners are not just shop owners, but also dog owners of seemingly high maintenance dogs! Trust me, this is quite rare in my experience. Though it's going back a few years since my dog's first groom at Pawfect Spa, I clearly recall my surprise when I meekly asked the usual, "uh, how was he?" and received the unusual, "he was great." Yes, he looked great, in fact, my partner couldn't resist referring to him as "toy dog", but what about all that monkey business? The groomer seemed perplexed by my concern for her sanity and I, for the first time didn't have to offer an apology! Still, when I returned the next time, I asked more directly, "was he difficult?" to which the groomer sweetly replied, "well, he doesn't like his paws touched, but one of us talks to him while the other grooms." And let me reiterate, the grooming IS great; actually, it's only gotten better over time and still not even the slightest grievance from any of the groomers. There has never been a cut, nick or scratch nor have I ever seen him returned to me with irritated bloodshot eyes. It did take a few visits to figure out the length I preferred on his limbs and face, but once we did, Elsie took photos and matched it each subsequent visit. Lastly, a couple of years ago, my dog started losing hair and Elsie suggested he get checked out for Cushing's Disease. I did, and well, she had totally called it. If Elsie was my vet, she would have saved me almost $800 for various tests that simply confirmed what she had suspected. It's been a relief to find a dog spa that I can trust and unlike previous groomers, I can genuinely say that I don't fret when my dog is with Elsie and her staff. I highly recommend and will keep going back!

Elsie and her team never disappoint, my fur babies always look impeccable one they are done!…read moreWouldn't go anywhere else.. best dog groomer in the city!!!

I brought my rottweiler puppy here for his first grooming. I called in the day before for a next…read moreday grooming. Tire Biter was definitely the most accommodating in terms of my schedule and being able to accommodate me so last minute. Nancy, I'm assuming is the owner (I may be wrong), answered the phone and was extremely helpful and pleasant. The morning of my pup's grooming appointment, I had the opportunity to meet Nancy and she's wonderful. When I came in, there were other dogs and their owners coming in for grooming and/or daycare. All the dogs came in extremely excited and happy - which is a good sign! On top of that, Nancy knew ALL the dogs and owners names - which shows that she genuinely cares. I came to pick my pup up about 2 hours later and I was extremely happy! He no longer smelled dirty (he plays outside a lot :( lol ), his coat was much softer than it usually is, his nails were cut - although one or two looked as though they weren't or were cut very unevenly, but I may be wrong. Regardless, I am extremely happy with the quality and service. My heart melted when my pup came out to see me, super clean with a cute bandana around his neck! I deducted one star because when my s/o came to pick him up, the person at the front desk (no longer Nancy) was on a personal call the entire time ... which isn't the best customer service. Other than that, I recommend this place. I wouldn't say that they are pricey as I've called around and they are average priced. I will be back :) Thanks for the amazing work done on my pup!

If there was an option for 0 stars, I would've selected that. I DO NOT recommend this store!…read more I knew what winter coat I wanted and chose to find a local business to support that carried it. #1: It took 4 COLD WEEKS TO ARRIVE, because they waited for more orders before they would send in their order! When they called to say it arrived, I said that I would pick it up the next day at 8am. #2: Waited and waited on the sidewalk while they tried to find the order. They came out with a "similar coat" (their words), and I remarked it was too big (dog would pee on it) and wrong colour. They then went back into the store to bag what I was told would be the one I did order. #3: When I took it out of the bag the next day to put it on, I realized they put the WRONG COAT in the bag. It was the wrong colour and wrong size. Tried it on anyway, to give it a chance. I believe it was the "similar coat" they tried the day before. #4: Phoned 24 hrs after pick-up, to say I was bringing back the coat because it was the wrong colour and size - and that my actual order must be in their store by their mistake. #5: TOLD I CAN'T EXCHANGE OR RETURN COAT, EVEN THOUGH THEY GAVE ME THE WRONG ONE!!
