    Bad cut
    T. H.

    We had the groomer work on our three matted dogs (a Pomeranian, shih tzu, and bichpoo), and two came back bleeding from nail trimming. My bichpoo also had a cut on his thigh and is now sporting a cone, but the groomer did not mention any of these issues to us upon returning the dogs. I had my husband text pictures to the company, and the groomer offered to come back with styptic for the paws, which he had already applied when he was here (meaning he knew about the bleeding and chose not to mention it), along with a discount on their next groom. The whole event cost $300, and they still had long ears despite my request for a puppy cut face. The Pomeranian came back with five knots and looked barely touched except for her uneven behind. My bichpoo and shih tzu are 12 and 11, respectively, so we've had many groomings in our day... this was the worst.

    A very happy and energetic pup...should I stick 2 little yellow bows on him?

    TLC Mobile Grooming is amazing!! They were the quickest to respond to my online request compared to 9 other mobile dog services. In less than 30 minutes I received a link to fill out an easy application and set an appointment for pickup in the next few days. Sam arrived infront of my yard right on time, masked, and was very patient in waiting outside for pickup. After talking and agreeing on a summer cut, Sam took my dog on a little stroll up and down the sidewalk and into the grooming van which stayed parked right outside our yard :) That gave me a huge sigh of relief since I had never tried a mobile dog grooming service before. In about 1 hour I received a text saying my dog was ready. Just 1 hour Then this little guy popped out. Sam did such an amazing job!!! His cutting is clean and sharp at every angle. Snoopy even looks like he has cute little furry "boots" to prance around in. I think I've definitely found my go-to groomer. Thanks Sam :) Thanks TLC Mobile Pet Grooming you guys were great! #quick #easy #convenient #timesavers #cleancut #greatservice

    They responded in the timely manner. Gave me the price quote and arrived on time. Andy, the groomer was wonderful. He deserves 10 out of 5!

    THANK YOU STEPHANIE WITH TLC MOBILE GROOMING..

    Stephanie was amazing, kind and gentle with my extremely stubborn 14 year old pug. She really took her service and care to the next level...even surviving a poop incident...sorry Stephanie! She handled it like the pro she is...thank you I recommend TLC, 100 percent...I will definitely be using their services again.

    After a session with Sam.... in their adorable little ties!

    Sam is my boys' Nash & Tenn's favorite stop of the month-we're regulars! He's such a sweet guy always sure to take thee BEST care of my two blue Merle Frenchies. my older one has tons of skin & environmental allergies and he's recommended food, and vitamins both which worked great! He knows my Nash is terrified of loud noises and afraid of the blow dryer and has communicated their behavior after the bath. He's communicative about time (I have a very difficult schedule) and super accommodating if I need to adjust anything! I recently got Tenn and had to get him vaxxed and on flea meds before I could get him groomed but as soon as I did, signed him up with Sam & TLC grooming. I love the ease of mobile dog grooming which is why I haven't done it at my doggy daycare... it feels much more personalized. I have been a client for the last year and will keep on going as long as I've got Sam! He genuinely is the DogFather! Thank you thank you for always being kind to my boys, Sam... you got a place in their dog heaven!

    Happy Zoe  after her bath
    Alejandra A.

    Andy did an amazing job to baby Zoe, she is been a really nervios dog and I believe this is the very first time she came home happy and not stress at all. I will keep using this grooming service and highly recommend this to any dog with issues like Zoe.

    Before
    Shannon H.

    Have been trying to contact them for 3 weeks. I first texted the groomer we had and they said that the owner would be in touch to make an appointment. A week goes by and nothing, so I call with the number on Yelp. No answer for three days. I leave a voicemail and still nothing. Then I text the groomer again that they never contacted me and they don't respond. So either this business is out or they are rude. Guess I'll have to find a new groomers.

    Thank You Sam for Taking Care of Our Puppy "Chanel" The best service and the only one we trust.. Thank you! Satisfied Costumer ..... Riq

    Before on the right side, after on the left side. No more dander, its summer haircut.
    Gel A.

    Loved their job..stephanie is really good with my puffle. Will definitely get there service again when her hair is fluffy again. No more dander around the house. Summer cut...great job. Thanks

    What a joke. I thought the 1 star reviews were fake but my dog is literally shaved to the skin (can see more skin than hair). My dog had no mats except for around his chin, yet his entire body is shaved down to the skin. This is a terrible business. Would never recommend. The groomer told me my dog needed to take cbd the first time and so we bought cbd and gave it to him 3 times (night before, morning of, 30 min prior) and obviously he didn't need it as the groomer had no idea what he was doing. I could shave my dog like this instead of paying $140 for this. Update- It says a lot about the company when they have to bash their clients to make themselves feel better. Customer service is a large part of owning a business. Any great business will tell you that sometimes they don't agree with the client but they try to come to an understanding. I would have gladly called at an appropriate hour and talked through my disappointment as well as updated my review to give them more stars for at least trying to understand my frustrations. But, when someone feels that they need to put you down for no reason and make comments about something they literally know nothing about, that is the definition of a bully. I will never tolerate being bullied and therefore, I'm not going to have a phone conversation so that the way this owner speaks to his customers will go undocumented. Look through the 1 star reviews you will see they do this with every person who is unhappy.

    Sam has been amazing! We have a toy poodle name Chico and every time Chico gets groomed he looks adorable, clean, and perfect. Sam is very sweet, gentle and friendly with dogs which I truly appreciate it. Chico is our baby and we are very happy with Sam and TLC mobile grooming.

    Franklin smelling and looking like a dream
    Molly M.

    Considering the state of the world right now, TLC mobile grooming made our lives so easy. Sam, our groomer, showed up right on time (with gloves, a mask, and 6 feet of social distancing) and made our dog feel so comfortable. Our dog's nails were pretty bad before we booked TLC, and they look (and sound) so much better now. We loved everything about TLC's service including the fact that our dog smells like fresh blueberries!! 11/10 would recommend. We will definitely pamper our dog with TLC again!

    After

    Wow! Writing this to say that I have never been so impressed by a groomer. Sam took excellent care of my senior cocker spaniel and gave her an amazing summer cut! Sam was caring and took the time to call me during my spaniel's grooming to share a way that he would trim her ears to ensure they retained their beauty, while helping her ears to better breathe. She's like a new dog -- She hadn't been trimmed since before quarantine, and I've never seen her have so much energy. You can just tell how amazing Sam has made her feel. Thank you so much for your amazing service. Can't recommend TLC enough!

On one occasion, the ear infection was also accompanied by a bacterial skin infection. I shared this as a health concern about my dog, not as an accusation. Shortly after raising that concern, I learned my account had been flagged and I was no longer allowed to book appointments. During my conversation with management, it was mentioned that my dog had shown some "aggressive" behavior. This had only ever been brought up to me once in the past, very briefly and in a way that did not seem serious at the time. There was never any indication over the years that continued service would become an issue. I apologized if my concern came across harshly, but the groomer Julie ultimately decided not to continue service. After a decade as a client, I'm disappointed this was the resolution. My intention was simply to advocate for my dog's health. I also have to be honest that the haircuts were often not quite what I hoped for, but I continued going because they were my dog's first and only groomers until now. Our dogs are our best friends. They rely entirely on us to protect them and speak up for their well-being. I never expected something so important to turn into such an uncomfortable situation. Given how this was handled, I would not recommend this place.. Toby

Our appointment was at 2. She texted again at 4 pm and again which was too late to start my 3 dogs. She said she would come at 9 am the next day (Monday). She texted and told me that she could not switch the other dog owners. To me, she said she would come at 9 am, but she then did not and told me she could come on Wednesday at 9 am.
