  Bark Avenue

  Very well! The dogs seemed comfortable and were very well groomed when they were finished. Plenty of staff, and they were sensitive to our elderly dogs' needs. We appreciate Heather at the Barking Lot!

  Groomers Inc.

  She is really good. When my grandbaby was born, she even crocheted a blanket for her. She is just a sweetheart.

  Three Waggin Tails

  They did a great job. I just wish I could make no appointment instead of leaving him there to be in a Kennel.

  Bark Zone Doggie Daycare

  My soft coated wheaten terrier absolutely loves coming here! Maria is a wonderful groomer and my husband and I are always so pleased with our puppy's grooming when she comes home from Bark Zone or "A Dog's Life Dog Grooming". I always feel assured that our puppy is well cared for and Maria is always more than accommodating for our pick up and delivery with our hectic schedules. I can't seem to say enough about this groomer, even the prices are great!

  4 PAWS UNLEASHED

  4Paws is the greatest Doggie Day Care service. We use the Urbandale location and all the girls are fantastic per lovers. Our Karma goes there about three days a week and loves it. We sometimes go out of town and fell 100% confident that she is well loved when we are out of town. They also do a fantastic job clipping her nails and giving her a bath every once in a while. Fantastic service that deserves 10 STARS!!!

  Greenbelt Kennels

  I have a special needs (blind) rescue dog. The wonderful staff at Greenbelt has been so good to her. She is not sure she wants to leave when I pick her up, and that is a good sign. The experience at day care has transformed my little girl. She was mistreated in her earlier life and was not well socialized. At Greenbelt, she is respected and allowed to be successful at being a dog. She came a long way under my care, but after consistent experiences at Greenbelt Kennel day care, my sweetie is transformed. She carries herself with confidence, holding her head high.  She approaches other dogs and people on her own, something she never did before.  I also have kenneled her at Greenbelt. She gets to interact with other boarders and is not left isolated in a small cubbyhole or cage. When she is confined, for her own wellbeing, the space is large; she can move about comfortably. Finally, the groomers do an excellent job. My dog had been afraid of her other groomer. Not at Greenbelt; she is so happy to go to the groomers, and they do a lovely job, especially around her fragile eyes. I am so thankful to Jean Brown and all the staff at Greenbelt for the good care they give my dog.

  Greenbelt Kennels

  I brought her at 7AM when they open their doors and she was done before 8:30AM, and better still, she was happy. She wasn't dropping her ears and tail or shaking. She was absolutely in love with the groomer, and was completely comfortable. They are amazing over at Greenbelt, and the price I was charged was less than the online price I had prepared to pay.The groomer then talked to me about the dogs experience and behavior during the process, and explained that she had had to use the low dry setting because my dog didn't like the other setting, which made me feel even better that she paid attention to my dog and did all that she could to make her comfortable.

  Greenbelt Kennels

  This is absolutely as good as it gets!  If it were possible to give higher than an A, I definitely would.  I just moved to the area and was looking for a groomer for my little yorkie mix.  She was an abused and neglected stray when I found her, so she has some quirks.  Most relevantly, she cannot be confined (she has actually eaten her way out of a hard plastic kennel, teeth bleeding) and she's afraid of loud noises.  I called Deb and asked if she could groom little Ava without putting her in a kennel, and she said she absolutely could and that she'd do the grooming as quickly as possible so Ava could go back home.  I could not have been more impressed.  I showed up for my appointment, and Deb remembered that Ava didn't want to be in a kennel.  Within an hour (an hour, people!), she called and said Ava was ready to come home!  When I picked her up, they had set up a little play pen in the lobby for her, with a bed and a blanket, and they were playing with her.  Ava was adorable -- with a handkerchief around her neck and a pretty flower in her hair!  Deb was super complimentary of Ava's behavior (compared to other groomers who have said my dog did "better than I expected").  She also noted that Ava doesn't like the dryer (note the fear of loud noises), so she didn't dry her all the way.  I can't tell you how rare it is to find a groomer who is so attentive to the dog's needs -- so KIND and COMPETENT and EXCEPTIONAL.  If you have a dog and you care about how he or she is treated when groomed, this is absolutely, hands down, no doubt, THE place to go.

  Greenbelt Kennels

  They're fantastic with my dogs.  They were very good.  My two dogs are very shy and they worked with him for a long time trying to get to being so shy.  Greenbelt is like home to them.  They're flexible with our schedule.  They're both patient with my dogs and they're wonderful too.
