Takoma Pet Services

Ironically, this company states that “communication especially when you have certain particular expectations is very important,” yet my experience showed the opposite. Today was my second appointment with this company, and unfortunately I do not recommend their services. I want to note that Eddie, my dog’s first groomer, was attentive and understanding during our previous appointment. However, today’s experience made it clear that the company itself is not reliable. My dog was scheduled for his second grooming today. When I arrived, I was greeted by a young woman who did not speak any English. Normally, this would not be an issue, and I understand that a language barrier is not reflective of someone’s ability to do their job well. However, my dog has severe anxiety, so being able to clea

First and last time client (I used the mobile service). I requested a full groom with a HAIRCUT and the groomer shaved down my 9 year old Scottish Terrier—a double coated dog—down to his undercoat! He was NOT matted as I brush him regularly! Instead of issuing a genuine apology, this grooming service blamed me and sent me a photo of my dog AFTER they shaved him.It will take SEVERAL MONTHS AND POSSIBLY UP TO TWO OR MORE YEARS for my dog’s fur to grow back and to get it back to what is normal for a Scottie. When it comes to Scottish Terriers, these groomers clearly don’t know what they’re doing and don’t care! I was even told by the owner (I think—have no way of knowing) that they’ve groomed Scotties before. Oh really? Then why was my Scottie shaved down to his undercoat? The ignorance of

We have been getting our 70 lbs husky mix groomed at Takoma Mobile Groomers for a year and they have been nothing short of a miracle. Our pup, who is very nervous, loves his groomer and is so much less anxious without the overstimulation of being groomed around tons of other stressed out dogs. They are always prompt and communication is a breeze. The professionalism, convenience and price truly can’t be beat. 15/10.

🚨DO NOT BOOK THIS SERVICE🚨 tldr: they completely botched up our dog’s grooming and didn’t care to correct/amend the mistake. My boyfriend booked this grooming company for our golden retriever, Bugz, to prepare for family holiday photos to send to loved ones and parents abroad. In our original request (email confirmation shown), there was NOTHING that requested a CUT. It was supposed to be a BASIC GROOM, only TRIMMING the butt and feet. My boyfriend was VERY clear and made sure to communicate this in English and in Spanish (he’s fluent) with the groomer when they arrived so there wouldn’t be any miscommunication. Our Bugz came back to us completely cut: his long fluffy tail is so short and stubby now, his leg wings are GONE. You NEVER cut a golden’s tail and IF you do, you TRIM it to give

Recently used their mobile grooming and I highly recommend. They were on time and very communicative. Also great price point. Love the cut!! I have been having my senior poodle get groomed for close to 15 years and this is one of his best cuts and experiences.
