New York, NY Pet Grooming

Very Clean and beautiful place. excellent and lovely groomer. My dog look awesome. Price very low. I like it.

I have been here two times already and in those times, I have been able to buy two lovely dogs. The first one, I gave to my friend and the second is for me!

If you love your dog then DO NOT use this place!! My poor 13-year-old golden retriever came home with a large bloody gash in her tail. They didn't even have the courtesy to call us and tell us about it. I am mortified.

Worst experience ever. I took a picture of my dog groomed the way I liked to Barry and asked to please do the same cut. When I came back to pick up my dog, he was cut totally differently than the picture I left with him. Barry advised me that the picture I gave him was not an appropriate cut for my Westie. I said then why didn't you tell me that you would not follow my wishes before you groomed my dog to your own specifications? He than began to address himself to my dog saying "Oh your daddy doesn't know what he's doing. He's an idiot." Can you believe that? What an arrogant person this groomer Barry is. I just took my dog and left. I will never ever come to him for grooming.

Excellent shop, with excellent service!I have had my pooch groomed by Vicki. EXCELLENT!! The shop has a great, welcoming set up, and a clean little grooming shop downstairs.

I was not impressed by AAOPG they signed me up for the wrong classes I wanted the advanced and they did not sign me up for that and it was an issue for the staff to fix it. There were many things they did not teach me that they claim to teach. I had to teach myself how to groom the heads of dogs Thank you Jodi Murphy for your DVD's This was a waste of money I am very disappointed. The reason why I am writing this now is because of my experiences in the real world salon.

HORROR!!!My Beatiful Lizzie was victim of a groomers negligence at that place who refuses to take any responsibility for their actions. So i think that you all need to know what can happen to your best friend. Groomingdales Pet salon On East 82 street was recommended to me and i took my maltese for the first time. I went to her up up and find my service dog stuck in the corner with a mob of the dogs all on top of each other crammed in in already tiny space with owner vacuuming at the same time. When I lifted my dog she screamed in pain... I thought i hut her leg by accident . Boy was i wrong. Same evening i discovered huge bruise on her back. I called the owner and got explanation that "due to brushing my Lizzie was blue since they pull her hair "a little to hard". Now i do blame myself for not taking her to her vet immediately but i was reassured that she is" white older dog and that do happen sometimes". Two weeks later Lizzie was on operating table due to horrific infection . Noone is willing to take responsibility or do the right thing. Noone from that salon wanted to tell the truth and prevent this infection. So you tell me what do you think what is right to do in this case? I am happy that Lizzie pulled trough thanks to University Animal Hospital. But she is still in a lot pain. No dog deserves this.

I went here and graduated. its a small place but the teachers are great and you will learn all you need to be a groomer so go to American Academy of Pet grooming . I had a great experience.

I dont usually write reviews, but after my dog has repeatedly pulled me away from the Dog House Spa as we walk to the park, I feel compelled to share his very bad experience there. The groomer and owner DID NOT follow instrutions on how I wanted my dog groomed. They seldom walk the dogs when they are in their care and the worst part is they can be very rough with your pet. After they take your dog down to the basement one never knows how they are treated. The very last time I brought my dog there, his chest was shaven so close blood rose to the surface of his skin. I took pictures and decided to Never send him there again. However 6 months later he is not over the trauma and literally pulls to walk on the opposite side of the street whenever we near the block. The prices are high and the quality of service/groomer is dreadful. Please do your faithful friend a favor and avoid the DOG HOUSE SPA ON 97th St- bet Madison & 5rh ave.

I feel I need to defend Lydia and Steven here since we've been using their service for several years now. I don't understand how someone could post such an unsavory review of a business that is well known for their pet care excellence in the NYC area. Alas some people cannot be pleased. The NYC pack has taken care of us since 2004.
