I-Stay U-Go

Highly recommend I-​Stay-​U-​Go!
They were great dog groomers and I will miss that service but their dog sitting and walking is awesome! Tammy has been my main caregiver and my pups –and I love her! Very reliable and extremely caring so I don’t worry when I’m away. Thank you I-​Stay-​U-​Go!

Amazing job grooming my cat! She can be quite difficult at times & has health issues, yet they were very understanding & careful with her & did a great job. Couldn’t be happier with how it turned out!

I discovered I-​Stay U-​Go more then 13 years ago. They had a storefront up on N. Verdugo Road at the time. I was traveling a lot of business and had two adult cats who needed attention while I was gone. Hilma took excellent care of them! Then I moved from a condo in to a home. My nephew came to live with me so I had a built in pet sitter for a while. Over time, both of my adult cats died but I wasn’t cat-​less for long and now have two boys. So, when I had to go out of town, I called up Hilma and she sent me Tammy who came and took excellent care of my boys while I was on my trip.

This place was the best! So helpful and lovely. They know their stuff and how to handle your dog which is perfect for our slightly neurotic pup. We’ve never gotten his hair cut and they did a perfect job!

I cannot stress how thankful I was to be a customer of I-​Stay-​U-​Go. Before this place opened, we would take our dog to numerous places like Petco and the petstore on Glenoaks and both very unsatisfying. Once ISUG was open, we tried it and would never second guess going. Hilma is amazing and her staff are practically dog-​whisperers. My pup was always looking great and the prices are definitely worth the service. This place is so trustworthy and so caring, I always have and always will recommend it to everyone. My dog had been allergic to certain shampoos and Hilma had always used the right one to keep him from itching. Up until my dog got a brain tumor and passed away, Hilma was our go-​to person, and once she found out she sent us a card and flowers which were extremely generous.
Once we bring our next pet we will definitely be back,
Thank you I Stay U Go!

I have a long haired cat whose hair gets matted so easily. Hilma has always done an excellent job of grooming my cat and get rid of even the worst of mats!

I saw the reviews on Unilocal and checked it out because I live two blocks away. Hilma was so down to earth and genuine. It’s small but cute and clean. I have a five month old pug and to my surprise, Hilma has a pug as well so she gave me great advice and took care of him. He smelled and looked great! This is now my go-​to groomers. Definitely needed a place like this in the neighborhood.

Bottom line. Hilma knows what she’s doing. So hard to trust someone with pets now a days and I trust her completely. It also helps that my dog loves her! Wouldn’t take him anywhere else. Thanks Hilma!

Professional and friendly service! Hilma is very knowledgeable and makes me feel comfortable to leave my little one in her hands. I’ve taken him twice and he comes out looking so handsome! I’m one that researches before I take my boy anywhere and I’ve always been against those corporate chains because they don’t take their time. Hilma spends quality time and care and also observes for any red flags. I will definitely continue bringing my baby to I Stay U Go!

They are very dog friendly. Very nice and professional.

Incredible service. They really take care of my puppy with lots of love. I get him groomed here regularly and they always do a great job. I also have Tammy stop by the house to feed my puppy and take him out when I’ve got a long day planned at work.

Awesome!!! Service was great and prices very good! thanks see you soon!

I took my cat here to be groomed for the first time. I was a little nervous since it was his first time although he is very well behaved. In about an hour he was done and looked cute as button with his lions hair cut. She forgot to put his collar back on so she kindly dropped it off at my house. I will definitely be back!

They were really accommodating and very kind to my dog. I will be going back for sure!

We used this place for two different services when we lived in Glendale. One was grooming for our Australian Shepherd and the other was for petsitting & walking. This review is mainly for the petsitting & dog walking because we decided that was the best service they provided us.
Just a quick note on grooming — They only lost one star because the grooming wasn’t entirely up to our standards. After our grooming visit, our dog experienced some temporary skin irritation on her back — possibly from dryer burns, hard brushing or just an allergic reaction to a shampoo used. Also, her hindquarters were clipped awkwardly, although that one may have been my fault for being unspecific in my request.
Our dog and cat seemed like they were well taken care of on all the occasions we left them in this company’s care. It was clear that our dog loved them. Our cat is sort of a snob, so who knows what he’s thinking, but he did seem as content as usual when we got home.
Tammy was our main sitter/​walker there and our normally shy dog adored her & her little dog. Sometimes we’d run into them in the neighborhood and Star would get super excited to say hello. That says a lot!
Also, the company was great about communication, before-​during-​after, provided easy billing, set up easy key exchanges and they were always pleasant & gracious. It was also nice that our home was always clean when we got home and everything was in its proper place.
We recommend their petsitting & dogwalking services to others in Glendale. And we wish we didn’t live so far away now so we could keep using them!

My little prince and princess love this place. My dogs have been groomed here since it opened and I wouldn’t go anywhere else! Its clean and friendly, plus my dogs don’t get the nervous shakes when we walk in here. They are at ease and comfortable, and are treated well.

Im in love with this place! The owner was amazingly sweet to me and my pup. One happy Mama!

I’ve come here a couple of times & I’ve loved it. I drive down to Glendale from USC! But, I went last week my dog had lots of knots. Takin that into consideration I was charged $ 5 extra dollars on top of the usual $ 40… That’s not what I’m complaining about. Later that day I found 2 cuts on my baby! I was NOT told he got these cuts from grooming. It would have been nice to have been told. The cuts did get worse & now vet bills have to be paid. I won’t be going here anymore & I just wanted to let you know to check your dogs before you pick them up. I thought I could trust them because I had been there before but I guess they got lazy.

I can’t say enough good things about I-​Stay U-​Go! Hilma is super friendly, professional, knowledgable and has a sincere passion for animals which is very evident from the way she treated my puppy. At one point, my puppy, Molly was licking Hilma while she was getting groomed, for her first time there no less! I couldn’t be happier with the service. I love that my puppy didn’t have to wait in a holding area with a bunch of other dogs waiting for their turn like other places. Hilma was also kind enough to give me some tips on how to care for Molly’s fur and ears as I’m a first-​time owner. Molly and I will definitely be returning!!! Oh, and the place is totally adorable!

I’m glad that this place is finally starting to ramp up its social media and getting some good reviews, because they do a really great job. To be fair, it is a bit more expensive than going to a larger groomer, but your little pup gets one-​on-​one attention here. They usually only have one, at most, two dogs at a time, so I think it stresses my guy out a little less.
Hilma, the owner and groomer used to be a vet tech so she knows her way around dogs. She expressed my dogs glands from the inside, the way they do at the vet (for an extra fee), and my little guy stopped scooting and didn’t seem bothered at all or irritated by the process.
Grooming was top-​notch, he came out looking and smelling great, but most importantly, he didn’t have any nicks or scratches which are, unfortunately, very common occurrences at pretty much all of the other groomers that I’ve tried.
Takeaway: I Stay U Go is a great local groomer. Prices are a little high, but you know that your dog gets treated with a gentle hand and isn’t stuck in a cage waiting for hours for his turn. Fido still doesn’t like going to the groomer, but at least I can have some peace of mind knowing that he will be treated with care, and turnaround is pretty quick. Picked up my dog in about an 1.5 hours if memory serves.
