I love WAGZ!! This place has been great throughout the years even through multiple relocations. I have had my dogs come to Angela since I can remember. My dogs and I have been treated with respect, care and amazing dog cuts each visit. She does the most for her client and will always put the pet first in all situation. She provided care for rescue pets, special needs dogs, and unaltered dogs where in most cases not any grooming shop will accept these dogs. She will forever be the only groomer I will take my pets to. LOVE YOU ANGELA AND YOUR TEAM
Paw-some service! This was my first time here and I'm absolutely mutts about them! They let me in on a last minute appointment and left my baby girl looking fetch-ing. She went in looking quite ruff and I got her back feeling im-paw-sibly soft! Y'all really gave her a trans-fur-mation. The little bandana was such a treat! I purchased their meal mixers as well - my little one is definitely a happy pupper. And bonus? Their team is sweeter than pudding. Overall, a furry good job, and we shall be back!
"Wagz" v. "To transform a dog from its filthy, dirty, ragged, shaggy, potato-smelling vibe into a precious, fragrant, expertly coiffed canine." Yeah. That's what it means. Angela - headmistress of Wagz - is the Cesár Milán of dog groomers. Uppity pups like our Riley are calmed in her presence and made malleable for the bathing and clipping session of their lives. Good doggies even get a lolli-pup at the end. Riley isn't a good doggie. He's Cujo on crack. But somehow, in Angela's hands, he becomes Bambi on quaaludes. When done, his style is impeccable, his coat - gorgeous and he's as clean as a whistle. BTW ~ No, she doesn't drug the dogs... she just has a magical way with them. "Curbside" dropoff and pickup during the covid. Mask up and bring your pal in for a grooming... your dream dog is just a Wagz away.
We live in the neighborhood so we'd walked and driven past Wagz multiple times while running errands, but when it came time to take our 5-month-old puppy for her first grooming appointment, we immediately checked Yelp for reviews. Let's just say the reviews for Wagz are glowing for a reason! Angela was so helpful - from the initial phone call to meeting for the first time for River's appointment! She was so sweet and caring - really making sure our pup was comfortable before starting the grooming service. They also don't have cages - only cute playpens - which makes for a really nice experience for the dogs! River was done in a flash and looked so fresh and clean! Angela even walked her out of the salon and into the car to make sure our puppy stayed comfortable the entire time - talk about amazing service :) We will definitely be going back when it's time for River's next appointment and will refer anyone to Angela and her team. Thank you, Wagz!! :)
If you are looking for the BEST groomer in LA County, stop the hunt! I feel so blessed I got a referral to WAGZ . We moved from Sacramento last year and haven't been able to find a local groomer for one of our Shih Tzus. Monty is 8, and loved grooming until 4 years ago when he was traumatized at a groomer, and has been aggressive with a groomer ever since. We actually have taken him back to Sacramento a few times to the one groomer that didn't insist we drug him first. I dropped by to meet Angela a couple of days before our appointment. An instant connection. I knew instantly she was a groomer we could trust. Her manner, compassion and professionalism are exceptional. I was almost in tears when I picked up our pups. He seemed transformed - confident and happy. Angela's methods are a cut above - I will never take my dogs anywhere else. I am confident Angela will win Monty's trust. The before pictures, and the confident little gentleman that came home with me today say all you need to know. Consider yourself lucky if WAGZ has an opening.
I'm hesitant to write this review because we want to keep Angela, who owns WAGZ, all to ourselves. We have a 5 lb mini Shih Tzu named Henry, whose hair grows very fast. Angela at WAGZ is hands down the BEST dog groomer we've ever been to and we'll continue to use WAGZ until her doors are closed (which we hope is never!!!). Not only are Angela's cuts always super cute, meticulous, and consistent, but she also uses great-smelling hypoallergenic shampoo and conditioner. We do the full package with ear hair clean up, sanitary cut, nails, bath, shampoo, condition, and cut, which is reasonably priced. His nails are actually trimmed and ear hairs thoroughly cleaned up. She's also cage free and uses doggie gates instead! More importantly, she's a dog whisperer from another planet. She's always super gentle with Henry. Case in point, every time we pick him up, he's happy, not shaking, and gives Angela goodbye licks. For comparison, my husband and I were temporarily in Seattle and had to use a different groomer there. Every time we left the Seattle groomer, Henry was shaking, had a choppy and uneven haircut all over his face and body, ear hair and nails weren't well trimmed, and he was nowhere near as fluffy and cute. The Seattle groomer said it was because he was fidgety, but we always heard the opposite from Angela at WAGZ, our vet, and from Henry's eye doctor. We were so happy to be back in LA, as Angela at WAGZ helped fix him back to his normal, happy, floofy self. He's happy every time he sees Angela, and we are, too. Only tip is to make sure you leave a voicemail when making an appointment. Angela will always call you back, though it may be later in the day or the following day.
I'm a new puppy owner and consistently try to make sure I do right by my little pup. I was super hesitant to take him to a groomer and have only washed him myself at home. My boyfriend found WAGZ and I took my pup to his appointment where the store owner/groomer greeted us. She had high energy and loved on my pup a bit before taking him back. One thing I really liked was that they didn't keep the animals in cages. Each animal has their own playpen for them to wait in during its appointment. She then directed me to the pet store next door that's attached to the grooming salon. Seven, who runs the store was super knowledgeable and walked me through the different food and treat offerings they carry and didn't pressure me into buying anything that day. Kilo's grooming took about 1.5 hours and he looked SOO CUTE after his appointment. We went for a teddy bear cut. My favorite part was that he was COMPLETELY dry when we got him (I have when dogs are returned to you not fully dry). Kilo was happy - and for his first professional grooming appt., he seemingly had no adverse reaction. We'll be back =)
Took my buddy Kilo over to get a cut since he hasn't had one being a puppy. We were very hesitant about trying to choose a place because a lot of groomers. Want to shave your dog instead of working with them. The owner was incredibly friendly and did a lot of great work to make sure that he was super fresh and had a great haircut. I would definitely go back, and I loved how they have a mini store connected to the groomer which allows you to get fun, toys, treats, and much more to take care of your buddy.
WAGZ has a professional team and Angela was very helpful. This was our first time at WAGZ, I loved the dogs are in pens and not in cages. I know Our dogs would feel comfortable in either but they are so easy going a pen is perfect. They both had grown so much hair from March to the end of May. They needed a grooming appointment quickly. Our usual groomer was booked for four weeks already. Angela graciously for us in one day. We dropped the dogs off. Angela came to our car and she took one dog at a time. I shared with her their personalities, grooming needs and quirky behavior. She shared she takes pictures and will share with us. She will call with any updates and when they are completely done and ready for pick up. There is parking in a very large area if needed. If you want to hang around, there are many restaurants, a staples, etc or You can run errands and Angela will call you. Missus and Roadie looked amazing and she really kept The shape we wanted for each of them. She shared that they were angels and I was right in the they do not like their faces touched. We will return with the dogs. They came out happy and were happy to see us. They both were great. Angela gave us a report and pictures. I will share the before and after pictures. Angela volunteers with a local dog shelter. She is giving back to the community. It was a good doggy spa/grooming day! Here are the before and after pictures. You can see how fluffy both are before Angela gave them hair cuts and groomed them.. I recommend WAGZ. Friendly, cafe free, professional, friendly, and truly animal people. Angela was very helpful with my husband to coordinate everything and very friendly when we arrived. My main concern is that the dogs were happy... ears cleaned, nails done, cuts so they remained looking like Affenpinschers, they could see and the hair was no longer in their mouths. Love you are close to home. Thank you WAGZ! We will se you soon and I recommend several other dogs to you.

My pup is in and out, no lingering and possibly getting anxious. Angela and her team do it right and they're speedy without jeopardizing your pups cut & spa services. My pup seems to be happy going there, so we're happy read more
We moved to Westchester about a year ago and chose Wagz as our official dog groomer this year. Angela always does an exceptional job with our senior Yorkshire Terrier, Gremlin. Out of all the groomers we've tried, she has never looked better than after a grooming here. read more

I'm so grateful to Angela and Wagz for taking in my Candy bear. I called Angela crying because no one wanted to groomed my dog. Within in minutes Angela said she had no problem grooming Candy and scheduled a Saturday appointment for her. I rescuded Candy from a shelter 4 years ago and she doesn't like to be groomed. The previous groomer explained to me that she was aggressive and should be sedated while being groomed. As a pet mom I did not want to put her at risk by having her medication. Well after my phone call with Angela, followed up with another phone call the next day just to check in with me and see how I was feeling. I couldn't believe it. That was thoughtful of her. I dropped Candy off for her appointment this morining. I felt so welcome by Angela she put me at ease leaving my dog with her. When I picked up Candy she looked so adorable and amazing the best she has ever looked. Angela showed me the pictures of Candy during grooming processed and said she was fine but would recommend we go in one a month for a wash just so she could become more comfortable being grommed. Angela also gave me so great advice on how to deal with her when she gets scared which I greatly appreciated. My mother was there and said that she was glad Angela took such great care of Candy and remind me of tips we received. Thank you Angela you are the best. Candy will see you next month. read more

So happy our little guy was groomed at Wagz! We have been to several other groomers, but I was never really happy with the cut, which has always been too short. Angela was able to maintain our shih tzu's fluff after trimming him. When we picked up our little guy, he looked so adorable and smelled incredible! The dogs were all given plenty of room, in their own little area, while they waited for their grooming services. We will definitely be back again! read more

I'm so happy to have found Wagz. My dog Kobe has gotten a bad grooming job at a different groomer last month and he looked awful. I brought Kobe in and they explained to me in detail what would be best for his type of coat. AND they were super fast; an hour and a half! I've never been to a groomer that took less than 4 hours. Super friendly, Kobe loved it there and he now looks amazingly handsome! His coat is even, I can see his face and he isn't left shaggy and isn't matted( previous place left behind his ears matted and I had to comb out on my own; ouch*) We will definitely be using Wagz regularly to keep my boy looking great. Thanks so much. read more

Wow. Took my Dukie in for the first time yesterday, he was a hot mess. I do dog walking and pet sitting in Westchester and one of my clients gave WAGZ a glowing review so gave them a shot. My little guy looked so handsome after they worked their magic. Turns out I walk some other dogs Angela knows so it was like I'd been going there forever when we started chatting. read more

We have been going to WAGZ for several years, beginning at their first location on Manchester. The first time going Angela was amazing, as she took the time getting to know her customers and their owners. She takes great care with all animals making them calm and reassuring them during the grooming process. I have friends who struggle with getting their furry friends to their groomer, but ours are excited to go and are always happy to see Angela and the other pups waiting in their pens, being they are not in cages. I prefer not to go to an assembly line type groomer and let them have their personal spa experience. When you visit WAGZ the first impression is the happiness shown by the furry friends. Thank you WAGZ for taking care of our babies! read more

It was my dogs first time here and we absolutely loved it the customer service was amazing and you can just see how much they love on your dogs and care for them. They took such good care of my dog and she looked amazing after very clean and nails we cut just right. They are also very fast and got me in so quick when I called and said pet smart couldn't get me in for a week. She was done with in an hour. Definitely recommend this groomer. Best around will be coming back for sure. read more

I've been coming to Angela for a couple years now. I don't trust anyone else with my little guy. The shop is clean and professional and Angela is super friendly and always does a great job. Getting my little guy groomed is always a quick, easy, pleasant experience. I highly recommend WAGZ to anyone looking for a dog groomer. read more
