Groomingdales

Greg did a fabulous job with our tea cup poodle. He listened to my preferences and delivered. Also, my dog was not traumatized by the experience! Hooray! Thank you, Greg!

I’ve have been taking my dogs to Groomingdales for 10 years. Greg is professional and curteous. He provides stellar customer service for both myself and my babies. He’s world renowned in the dog show arena as a judge, so he knows his cuts!
Tuki and Annabelle love going to see Greg and feel like his shop is a home away from home. When I pick them up they are sweet smelling, happy, and nails are trimmed without ever a nick.

Not to be mean, but this groomer isn’t set up for large breed dogs, nor did he do a very good job on my British Cream Golden retrievers. First thing that was noticed was that my largest (who is about 105lbs) was crammed into a cage that was meant for a dog much smaller than he and that was his largest cage he had. After pickup the dogs from and getting them home, I noticed that they weren’t even brushed out on their né’er side and still had some matting on their tail end. I had asked that he give my longer haired female a sanitary clipping and she was basically shaved her entire backside and part of her belly. (Maybe I’m wrong but that’s not the way I have ever seen it done). Also all the tier feet weren’t even touched, they had long hairs sticking out. Every other groomer I had ever used shaped the feet in a pleasing manner. I never said anything directly to him as I just feel the pen is mightier. I would think twice and shop around before using him. He is expensive and the job was sub-​par. I brought them home and had to clip the feet and brush them out. Not what a person/​client would expect when they just handed someone 150.00 for services.

I’ve been taking my english bulldog Rickles to Greg for a little over a year now and I have to say that he is an awesome groomer hands down if not the best i’ve been to. Everytime I turn the corner at the burger lounge he (my dog) starts to shake as soon as he recognizes the courtyard as if he senses the bath to come. When all is said and done and it’s time for Rickles to go back home after he’s been scrubbed and soaked he never wants to leave. I strongly reccomend giving him a try as he made me feel welcome to the kensington family. Greg is upbeat and has a great personality that makes you feel as if you’ve been friends from the get go.
+5 stars without a doubt, and Rickles will be a loyal customer for the rest of my tour in San Diego! ! !
