All Fur Pooch

I have a senior, special needs dog and I want his grooming experience to be stress-​free — which is why I use a mobile groomer for him. I had another mobile groomer work with my dog a few times and he was petrified of her, additionally her van did not clean/​sanitary. Then I found All Fur Pooch. Linda is incredibly patient and caring with my dog and he definitely senses it. After his grooming session with Linda he kisses her and wants to play with her. I have NEVER seen my dog act that way with ANY groomer before. Not only that, but she is talented and does EXACTLY what I request in terms of the style of hair cut. My little guy always looks so handsome after his grooming session with Linda. She also punctual and professional. Linda is a gem.

I’ve been working with Linda for over a year now, and the quality of work is still top notch! I now have two little one and she took care of the new girl who was heavily matted perfectly! Hands down to her nice attitude, precision and absolute patience. Thank you, Linda.

Linda always does a great job grooming our peekapoo. My dog diesel loves her. She arrives on time, is very courteous, caring and detailed. Her prices are very reasonable and you can’t beat that she comes to you!

I’m pretty busy, like most people, and had a hard time using my precious weekend hours driving my dogs to and from the groomer on Saturdays. I decided to try a mobile groomer and found Linda. She is great! The convenience of having her come to us is worth so much and the quality of her work is wonderful. She conveniently accepts Paypal so I never have to worry about carrying cash or anything… just a few button pushes on my phone and she’s paid. My little girls are able to be clean and shiny and groomed regularly now, all while I am getting work done. They are so comfortable with her that during their last grooming Linda texted me a picture of my baby… she had fallen asleep during her haircut! We’ve been using Linda for a long time and I’d recommend her highly!

We’ve used Linda a few times for our dog who is a bit nervous and anxious. Linda handles her very well and our dog actually enjoys it!
We’re very happy with Linda’s service and now our neighbor uses her for his dogs too!

Linda is fantastic. She arrives on time, sets up fast and does the best work. We had her groom our big golden doodle and she took about five hours. She took her time to do an amazing job!!! Linda took care of his dew claw which was terrifying to look at and cleaned up his very very VERY matted paws. We definitely recommend her to everyone with four legged children. I wouldn’t pay attention to the bad review below because she transformed our big ball of fur to one good looking stud!

We have been using Linda for the last 6 months and she is terrific! She is so dedicated to detail and making sure that our dog is groomed as exactly as we want. She is so caring and compassionate as she handles our dog and takes the time afterward to love on and play with our Coconut. The fact that this kind of service can be provided at your home is an extra bonus. We have recommend Linda to several of our neighbors and they are just pleased as we are.
Once you try Linda no one else will do!

My previous experience with Linda were good. Unfortunately, my last experience was way below par. I asked Linda to trim Bella’s bangs and the hair on her crown. I asked that her bangs be trimmed to meet her nose so that it would not fall into her mouth. When I came out to see Bella; her ‘bangs’ when dried came to an inch higher; so short in fact that I cannot even make it into a topknot. When I mentioned the length, Linda insisted that it ‘met her nose’. Not wanting to argue, I didn’t persist. For the next 2 weeks, I became increasingly unhappy with both the short length & how choppy it was along with the choppy cut over the rest of her crown.
I texted Linda about these & she chose to ignore it. I guess this was the first time that Linda had trimmed her crown hair though I thought she had before as I’ve requested minor trims all over. I’m extremely unsatisfied with the latest cut and Linda’s reaction to customer dissatisfaction. Paying $ 60 for the wash/​cut + $ 10 for tip to get a hacked hair cut is definitely not worth it; especially since I had to pay for another full cut to correct what Linda did. Plus she didn’t even show up for the original appointment that we made 4 weeks in advance & had to reschedule.
Had Linda made any apologies, offered to rectify, or even admit that the cut came out shorter than requested; we could have possibly worked it out. Because of the way Linda reacted, I wouldn’t trust her to touch my Bella again. If someone won’t even admit to making a simple mistake, how can you trust their work?

Linda has been our best dog walker, hands down!!! She would text me a picture when she arrived as well as a GPS of their walk! She took extra care and caution around our rescue dog who can be fearful of strangers at first. But after a couple visits they were best friends!!! Linda was able to accommodate our crazy schedules even for last minute walks. We absolutely love her and want to take us with her to our next move:)

Long story short: I use to take my dog to the groomers where they kept her in a kennel to dry or wait for me when the groomers were finished and she would go home really sad and depressed for days (She HATES getting groomed). My dog is a terrier mix and can be a little fussy, so having said that…
I stumbled upon Linda’s mobile dog grooming (thanks to Unilocal) and this is way better! Linda is extremely personable, you can tell that she loves and cares about the dogs, and her prices are extremely reasonable. She’s prompt and she really knows what she’s doing… I DEFINITELY recommend her if you are looking for a dog groomer.

Talk about a professional/​knowledgeable/​punctual/​loving and caring groomer anyone could ask for their pet. Linda was everything I read on the reviews and more. Our first-​time experience with her was incredible and we will definitely use her in the future. She took her time with our teacup poodle, 2 ½ hours long later, Our dog went from rags to a show dog. Thank you very much for your hard work, Linda. I will definitely recommend you to everyone I know that can use your services.

Linda did a great job bathing our very large GS who doesn’t stop moving. Linda was patient and efficient. Our GS looked and smelled terrific and Linda comes to your home which is so convenient!

We had the opportunity to visit family over the Christmas holiday. I searched Unilocal and even though there were animal sitters in our neighborhood there was something about Linda’s reviews that convinced me to call her (even though they were mostly related to dogs and I have a cat). She was very responsive. She returned my call promptly and was very courteous. She came to our house to meet us and our cat and to discuss her services. We could tell immediately she loved animals. She did an outstanding job! Normally, we get a teenager but always have issues with them either not showing up as often as we requested or our house alarm triggers. We will continue to use Linda and highly recommend her!

I wanted to try out a mobile groomers because my Goldendoodle, Gatsby, did not like being left someplace strange for 6 hours before and kenneled with a bunch of yipping dogs. Or, I didn’t like it and am projecting. Anyway, Linda had an opening this week and I desperately needed to get the dog a haircut and bath.
She is unlike other mobile groomers in that she doesn’t have her own van or motorhome. She does it all in your driveway. I wasn’t sure how it’d work, but wanted to give it a try.
It was raining this morning but she said not to worry because she had a tent. She also had a water heater which she attached to my spigot and a dryer and a vacuum cleaner (or maybe a shop vac, I only heard it, didn’t see it).
The dog loved her on sight and tried to jump out of the car to get to her. That is, until he heard the word «bath,» at which point he tried to hide. But he acquiesced readily to her control and didn’t give her any trouble.
She went over the details of what I wanted and showed me the different lengths for the cutting implement. She also had some pics so I could sort of pick out what I wanted. For example, she asked if I wanted his head «teddy bear style» and I didn’t know what that was, so she showed me (it’s round, and I said no). Then she told me about how much it would be (more if your dog is extremely difficult or bites or whatnot).
She worked for more than 4 hours straight on my dog. No breaks. In the rain. She did an excellent job. She also showed me where he had a scratch on his leg and gave me some brushing tips (he was a bit matted in the armpits). He is very very evenly groomed and his paws are perfectly rounded like little clouds. When he was done, she asked me if I wanted to modify anything. I did not.
And I had a sick kid at home and all I did was hang out inside all morning, tending to her and working. Convenient!
She also cleaned up after herself and asked me to come outside to make sure it was back to my standard.
Prices are comparable to Petco. Check her out.

I moved to San Diego this summer and needed a pet sitter for my Golden Retriever during my first out of town trip. I found All Fur Pooch through a referral (can’t actually remember exactly from whom), but my first experience with Linda was first rate.
Linda is über-​efficient, responsible and conscientious about being on time and doing what you ask. I particularly like that she texted me a photo of my dog during each visit, giving me some peace of mind that all’s well.
I have multiple trips scheduled in 2014, and will call her again.

I purchased a Maltese named Coco. I have had Linda groom her on three occasions. She is so kind and very accommodating ! Her grooming was great. We love the mobile service. It saves us time and gas. I haven’t used her for the pet sitting but I will in the near future. Coco loves her special TLC! I would recommend Linda. She will get the job done right for you!

If you need a mobile groomer, look no further than to this wonderful woman, Linda, who is simply amazing! I expected her to come to me on a week day but she works week ends too! I have three dogs and she did them all in one visit and I could not be any happier!!! She is gentle and thorough and I think her prices are extraordinarily reasonable! I look forward to using her services over and again and my pooches really liked her too!!! I would recommend Linda to everyone!

We were worried about going on vacation and leaving our «little ones» for a week, but figured that they would be happier at home than being boarded. As soon as we met with Linda, we both felt at ease, as she is responsible, professional, efficient and takes her job seriously. She went through all the dates we’d be gone, and let us know what times she could come by to feed and walk the dogs. Also, she handled our dogs with no problem, even though they can be a bit feisty. She has great techniques for dealing with animals.
While we were gone, she sent us daily texts and pictures of our dogs, which made us feel less guilty for being gone. We really didn’t have to worry at all. And as part of her services, she will water plants, bring in the mail, rotate blinds, take out trash, or whatever else a homeowner needs. It makes it a lot easier to go away!
A short time after we returned from our trip, since Linda had handled our dogs so well, we decided to take them to her for grooming, instead of to Petco where we usually go. Our dogs were better behaved with Linda, because she paid a lot of attention to them, and gave them a lot of one-​on-​one time, whereas being in a pet store can be distracting because of all the noise and other animals being groomed. Seriously, our dogs never looked cleaner! I couldn’t believe that she could trim our dog’s nails, without a muzzle being needed for the dogs (they hate their nails being groomed!). She did a great job, and was done in less than half the time it usually takes.
We look forward to going away again so we can use Linda! Our doggies love her.

I hired Linda with All Fur Pooch to come to my home and care for my 15 year old cat, Meisha, while I traveled to the UK for 4 weeks on business. Linda was very responsive to my calls and flexible in her hours to meet with me to go over the details of her visits to my home. She went through every day i’d be gone to let me know what time she’d be able to stop by and give my cat food and water, and scoop her box. She also offered to water my plants, and rotate my lights and blinds to keep my home safe. She asked all the right questions and spent some time with my cat during our visit to be sure they got along okay… which they did
Linda sent me pictures and videos of my cat during her visits, making me miss her less (as I really really missed her) and brought a wide smile to my face. At no time did I ever worry that my cat was in good hands and getting the attention from Linda that I would have given her. Feeing, brushing, scooping, and picking up hairballs… all of it done with professionalism and care.
I’m very happy with the service Linda provided and the spoil she gave to my cat. I found it endearing that for the first week after my return my cat would start to stir around 9pm and wait near her food, as that is when Linda was stopping by… she actually missed her! :)
Thank you Linda! Thank you All Fur Pooch! If ever I travel again, you’ll who I’ll look to for more pet sitting for sure!

Fostered a dog and the day I got her, she needed a serious grooming. Dog was nervous and snappy. Linda was patient with her and assured me she knew what she was doing. Reasonable prices. Linda worked through till almost 10 pm to groom my dog. Also very humane and will not brush out naps if it will hurt the dog, she will have to cut it off. did not charge me extra for hair cut. Also very flexible hours. DOg is happy and very very clean (she has white fur) Came home to me smelling like clean sheets. AWESOME!
I had to foster a dog that I knew nothing about and I wanted to get her groomed the day I got her. She was really dirty and nappy and I wanted her clean before I let her in my house. Called Linda since her hours are flexible I called her pretty late and she was able to groom my foster right when I called her. Very convenient since she comes to your house and grooms your dog. it’s also a reasonable price. The dog was very nervous since she didn’t know me that well and she has just been taken from another foster parent. She was kinda snappy at Linda and very very nervous but Linda was able to put the muzzle on her with a lot of patience! Linda knows what she’s doing and as I was nervous for her, Linda took full responsibility and told me that she knew what she was getting herself into. I am so happy with her service. she even taught me what kinds of brush to buy for her fur and explained to me in detail why. Also very detail oriented. The basic grooming came with everything even nails and ears and hygienic grooming. She even made sure her paws were taken care of.
Excellent service! Thanks Linda! =)
