This was great, but the pricing is a little too high for us. Our groomers were fabulous, and Sir Bentley enjoyed the experience. I was a little anxious after reading some of the reviews, but our gro... See more

Very nice groomer and good job done for…

Very nice groomer and good job done for our 2 pups.
The grooming was done in my appartement and I had to clean it thoroughly afterwords which was not that easy. Next time I will try to have it done in the mobile van.

No on Dry Baths

They came out and did a dry bath on a golden doodle & a siberian cat and a regular bath on a short haired lab.

I tried Groomit because my regular groomer was on vacation.

When my regular groomer started on the golden doodle they said they don't think groomit brush her out before doing the dry shampoo because she is all matted and now needs to be shaved!

They also did not clean her ears, tweeze the hair, and it could cause infection.

I didn't love the dry shampoo for the cat.

The short haired lab was good though.

Terrible experience with Groomit & groomer, Ocean Wavz

I had a terrible experience with Groomit and their groomer, who went by the name Ocean Wavz. I booked a grooming appointment with clear instructions for only half of my dog’s hair to be trimmed. When I brought her out to the grooming van before the appointment started, the groomer casually mentioned that her tail seemed a little matted but said he could work through it. He never mentioned needing to shave her and never got my consent for cutting more than the agreed trim.

What makes this worse is that I brushed my dog thoroughly just an hour before his arrival — and she has been professionally groomed monthly since she was a puppy. There was absolutely no way she was severely matted. Even if he encountered a tangle, it did not justify shaving her all the way down to the skin. The before and after pictures are shocking compared to how she normally looks after grooming. Angry doesn’t even begin to describe my feelings toward this company and especially Ocean Wavz.

Here is the most infuriating part — this groomer was literally parked in front of my home the entire time. If he truly felt something needed to be done beyond the agreed service, he could have easily knocked on my storm door, which was open the ENTIRE time, or simply called or messaged me through the app (even if there were issues with the app — he could’ve simply gotten up and come to the door).

It truly appears that he made a mistake and had to cut her to adjust for that - but even then her hair is not even. This was unacceptable, lazy, and irresponsible. I feel violated that this was done without my consent, and it absolutely infuriates me to now see my dog shivering because her hair is gone — all because of this poor, careless, irresponsible experience.

When I complained to Groomit, they initially refused to refund me and only offered a store credit (which I would never use after this). It wasn’t until I threatened to report them to the Better Business Bureau and dispute the charge with my credit card company that they finally refunded my money.

This isn’t even my first bad experience with them — the initially scheduled groomer never even showed up and lied and said she did. I will never use them again and strongly urge other pet owners to stay far away if you value your pet’s well-being and expect honesty and professionalism.

Never again!!

Never again!!
It was awful The groomer was very very late
She cut my dog’s nails so short she was bleeding. My instructions to keep her beard and whiskers was ignored and they were cut off. Obviously she did NOT speak English. Never again!

Wonderful service!

I love the text messages that let me know that the groomer is coming. Both Aline and Jinny have been wonderful with our Corgy. We have had bad experiences with groomers and so far we have been very happy. We also love the convenience of having the van across our street
We only use Groomit now.

It was terrible.

It was terrible.

I was interested at first, so I made a reservation in advance for 5/16 at 11:00 and waited for Groomit. However, an hour ago, Groomit texted me saying that 1:00 was available and asked me to change the time. I was upset, but I changed the time to 1:00. But I got a text right away saying that they couldn't come and that they said that I should make cancel.The company didn't take any action and I didn't get any compensation for wasting my day. This is the first time I've ever worked at a company like this. I wonder how a company that doesn't keep to the time and is so messy can do well.

Not worthy of even one star

Not worthy of even one star. Terrible experience. Booked appointment, text exchanges with "groomer" - never showed up. Finally canceled appointment. Have still not been refunded monies 3 days after debacle. Would never even consider using them again.

Services weren’t fulfilled

Yesterday, May 7th, my 100lb Great Dane had an appointment to be groomed via their mobile van service. I booked the silver package & also added on the health bundle & deshedding. Altogether this includes nine services: a full bath, nail trim, ear cleaning, blow dry, dry brush out, gland expression, teeth brushing, paw balm, and removing undercoat and loose hair. It was $256.61 before tip.

According to their website, a grooming appointment averages 1-3 hours, depending on pet’s size and selected services. From the time my dog went into the van to the time she was at my front door again was approximately 29 minutes TOTAL (we have cameras with time stamps to verify), for a 100 pound Great Dane to receive 9 different services. The groomer put in the app that he was there from 5:30-6:30, which wasn’t true.

When she was brought back to our door, she was very wet. Her paws and back looked visibly dirty. She wasn’t blown out and didn’t receive the dry brush or deshedding. Her teeth weren’t brushed and glands weren’t done. Her paws were very dirty as well which led us to believe she didn’t get the paw balm either. We wiped her with two wipes right after and they were filthy. (Pictured.) The one service that was “done” (a full bath) was done poorly. I reached out to her usual groomer and they agreed- properly grooming & fulfilling all services on a 100lb dog in 29 minutes is unheard of.

After reaching out they argued that all services were completed in 29 minutes. They credited $100 to my Groomit account but I’d let them know I would not be using them again. No integrity. I am filing a dispute with my bank and a complaint with the BBB. I do not recommend hiring a company that doesn’t hold their contractors accountable. So disappointing.
