What Reviews Say
87 reviews analyzedThe Dog House is highly regarded for its speed and ability to handle anxious or senior dogs, with many customers praising specific groomers like Jasmine and Sonia. However, there is a significant divide in satisfaction regarding grooming style, with multiple reports of dogs being shaved unexpectedly short. While the facility is noted for being exceptionally clean, management's defensive tone in response to negative reviews and strict cancellation/pricing policies are recurring points of friction.
