Island Paw

WOOF WOOF they rock all the way from Iceland. Best groomer I have found with in a 20 mile radius. Thank you WOOF WOOF

I take my little dog Chewie here all the time and they do a great job. A couple times they have squeezed him in at the last minute. He always looks great and smells good too. ;0)

I wanted to like this place… I walked in on a Friday hoping they had an opening but not expecting it. The older lady (owner?) was super sweet and helped me get an appointment for the following Tuesday. Fast forward to that Tuesday… Dropped my dog off at noon. Again super nice service, she remembered me and my pooch. Stars are for the kindness of both ladies working there.
Now to the bad part… picked up my dog, she has trouble with getting her nails done, which I had relayed to them, and didn’t really expect them to be able to do those well. Asked for her hair to be 1 step above shaved… Instead it is slightly trimmed (she has long hair), and the trim they did is so sloppy! Uneven all over, parts look as if they weren’t even cut at all :(I usually take her to a place in San Marcos but they were booked up for a month… Unfortunately, I am going to either have to take her back to another groomer to get her hair actually cut or just clean and even it out myself. She looks ridiculous. On the plus side, she smells wonderful.

I have taken my German Shepherd here many times and I absolutely love this place! In fact, I am on my way to drop mine off here momentarily. They are so nice, the prices are absolutely fair in comparison to other places and my dog always comes back happy and clean! I would suggest this place over any other in North County. Absolutely 5 Stars for me!

This is a family owned and run business (which I totally love) and these ladies (Ester and Maria) absolutely love dogs and it shows. I took my Frenchie;Charlize Theron in for her nail trimming and they were so gentle and quick she barely even seemed to notice. I feel very fortunate to live close to this shop and even though they always seem busy they are great about fitting me in. Highly recommended.

We’ve taken our dog here several times now and we absolutely love it. They genuinely care about your pet and treat it with gentleness and love

I was just at this groomers. She did great with my little skittish Chihuahua. I think we have found our new groomers. I’ve always been sketchy about taking my dog to groomers because of all the horror stories I’ve heard I certainly do trust this place with my dog. Highly
was quick it was easy five stars highly recommended.

such nice ladies! i have been to several groomers… these ladies are so kind and i feel comfortable leaving my girls here… last person abused my terrier!

After speaking with the owner, Ester, about the bald spots on my dogs chest, she said she will be letting that groomer go. She was extremely apologetic. The stars are simply for how the owner handled the situation, obviously not for the grooming experience.

We went to island Paws for the 1^st time today. I called yesterday for an appt and they got me in the very next day. They were friendly and cost effiecient. Plus we were able to use a $ 10 1^st time customer coupon ! And my dogs haircut is spot on. The shop is really cute. We will definately go back !!!

I had been taking my dogs to a great groomer for over 10 years and really liked her. But through a series of events I couldn’t go there. I took my two Shitzus in to Island Paw for the first time last Monday. I was greeted immediately and the groomer made sure to really meet and say hi to the dogs and comment on how cute they were. She seemed very confident and relaxed.
I was on a bit of a tight schedule and they managed to do both dogs in even less than the estimated time. When I picked them up they looked so cute with bows and scarves, but the actual grooming was excellent. The coat was very even and not too short. She did exactly what I asked for.
I then had the nails and anal glands done on my little Chi/​jack Russell. That also seemed good. The cost of that was $ 18 which I thought was a little high, but…
This place is only about 5 minutes from my house and I had been driving 20 to 30 before.
Very happy to have found them.

They are super with dogs of all sizes! My dogs are always cut to perfection and happy when I arrive to pick them up. They take there time there to do it right. I have paid more money to groomers who have slammed out a wash & groom in less than an hour and not looked as good. We give island paw 4 paws up!

We have a 6 pound yorkie that gets his hair cut here and they do a great job. We used to go to Hairy’s on Sycamore but they cut him a couple of times and we decided to switch. The staff at Island Paw is caring and considerate. They groom very well and our dog feels totally comfortable with the staff.
