Blue Pooch

Blue Pooch is awesome! I can’t believe I haven’t written a review. Found BP from Unilocalers several years ago and have been very happy with Yuri and all the staff. Yuri grooms my poodles fur. She listens to what I like and also makes great suggestions. And my doggie loves her so much! I can’t recommend this place enough. I haven’t tried their doggie day care facilities but the doggies all look happy. Definitely give Blue Pooch a try if you’re looking for grooming or other pet services. They’re fantastic!

Wow, my dog looks fantastic. He’s an old dog with a puppy’s spirit and his groom definitely made him look like a puppy again. Many of these positive reviews are correct, after getting your pet back they seem so happy and not like they’ve been through hell and back. If you’ve gotten a groom at petsmart you probably know what I’m talking about. Anyhow, making an appointment was easy, I called in and set one up. I came by 15 minutes earlier than expected but that seemed to be okay. Every single one of the staff were immensely friendly to me and my little pal. I met my groomer personally and we discussed what kind of haircut my boy would be getting. She had a dachshund too so she was super knowledgable about which cut I should maybe try. After about 5 minutes of my indecisiveness she took him away and started working. I was told it should be around 2 – 3 hours but received a call at 2 hours. When I came back to pick him up my eyes could not believe how well my boy cleaned up! Many groomers don’t pay attention to detail enough to cut underneath the paws and ensure the entire coat is even. But mine did and I love her for every bit of it. The groom cost $ 60, but I paid $ 55 for the first time plus a $ 5 tip. I have never tipped before at petsmart so I’m not sure how the tipping works for this service to be honest. While shopping around I know $ 60 is a bit much, but in all honesty this place is super clean, friendly, and provide a superior groom compared to the rest. You get what you pay for. Also, they have some sort of partnership with this teeth cleaning service that comes once a month that’s anesthesia free and cost a fraction of what vets charge. I’m coming tomorrow to get my buddy’s done. When I say I fraction I mean vets typically charge $ 600 + meds/​extractions, and while researching this service it costs only $ 115 + $ 25 for antibiotics shot (only if needed). Will definitely be doing my business here from now on. Thank you!

Adored this grooming salon! Patient, friendly and true animal lovers, Blue Pooch accommodated a last-​minute appointment request and gave my sheepdog an adorable haircut. Awesome experience!

Like all things in life, you get what you pay for and even if this grooming shop is priced fair but higher than average it is worth it. They know what they are doing and they train their staff well. It’s not like any other LA grooming shop this is a professional show dog groomer teaching her staff and cutting your dogs hair, over seeing everything. I love this place. Family owned business with excellent service.

Love Love Love this place. They do such a great job on my Maltese and also my Chihuahua.
They are kind, gentle and fast. My dogs usually spend all day at the groomer but not at this place. They get them in and out while also doing a good job.
Thanks again Blue Pooch!

Amazing staff made my Baxter and myself feel right at home!

A beautiful job on both of our papillon pups! They were quite hairy and grubby. What a transformation! Highly recommended.

Fantastic Groomers! Normally my dogs are very nervous and shaking after a grooming, not with Yuri! My one pup also gets a mohawk with color and it looks fantastic!!!

They truly strive for perfection. As a hairdresser, my eyes immediately catch technical imperfections in the haircut and blow dries and this is the only place I trust to cut my baby Luna’s hair, unfortunately have learned this by mistakingly taking her elsewhere.

I love Blue Pooch. My dog, Poe, is typically scared of new people (he’s part chihuahua) and his groomer knew how to win him over. She said he did a great job during the cut, and he came back looking happy. The cut was great, and they even gave him a green bow tie that matched his collar! Appointments are fairly easy to get (but you’ll need to call about a week in advance). Definitely recommended.

even though my dog came out looking like a cartoon character, you did a great job, treated her well, tried repeatedly to fix what i wanted, and even have a cute boutique stocked with awesome accessories.
If i didnt move away Id be back!

I’ve brought my dog (small husky) now for the third time.
First was $ 55 with a $ 5 first visit discount. Second was $ 60 without the discount which is fine but they forgot to trim her paws this time. Third they charged me $ 70 because they decided to de-​shed her for an extra $ 10 but never called to ask me if it would be ok… they also forgot to trim her paws yet again even after I noted it on her chart when we checked in so I had to sit and wait while they corrected that.
I’ve had her for 6 years now and this place just seems too pricy which is especially not ok if you won’t actually perform the service I requested and will charge me for stuff I didn’t request.
This third time was the last one she comes here, time to find a new spot.

Loved this placed they were so accommodating and we tried them because of a recommendation, we brought our Pomeranian and Maltese for grooming and cutting. They were so happy and didn’t want to leave.
We are making it a routine for sure! And maybe try the color treatments next time.

This is our go-​to grooming spot for our little fur baby on the westside. The staff there are all super sweet and the prices are very affordable. I’ve never had an issue with getting an appointment. They’ll tell you about 2 to 3 hours before you can pick up, but I find that they usually finish sooner than that. For $ 50 they’ll bathe and trim his fur to your liking. Also included are nail trim, ear cleaning, and teeth brushing.
My little guy is a shelter rescue dog so he tends to be super nervous about being kept in a crate or kennel. The nice folks at Blue Pooch will let him roam in the doggy daycare pen with the other dogs which helps his anxiety tremendously.
Upon picking him up, often times he’ll be sporting a cute bow-​tie, ready to take on the world one tree at a time.

My English bulldog, Bruno, gets baths and goes to daycare at Blue Pooch at least twice a month. For washes, Bruno sees Mickey because he’s simply awesome and had bonded with him. He does a thorough cleaning and even gives me updates on his skin issues. Bruno also enjoys their daycare. It is small enough that they can watch all of the dogs which I appreciate (since we all know that some dogs are mischievous including mine).

Avoid this place. I added a photo of these two red scars on my puppy’s belly. Won’t go back again. Update: The manager called my the next day. She says that she saw my picture and review, apologized. My puppy is getting better. So I change my rating from One Star to Three Star.

Such a great grooming experience. Everyone was friendly, professional and really sweet to my dog. She looks so gorgeous now. Thanks Blue Pooch!

First time here and I love it! Took my recently adopted 13 yr old Pomeranian here today for a full grooming, he is scared of the bath and the brush at home but here he just relaxes and goes with the flow, it’s SO nice to be able to pick up my dog and have him relaxed like he spent a day at the spa:) the groomers here really know their stuff, he looked perfect, great lines to go with his body shape and nothing was too short or too long, just perfect! I also had them trim my very cranky chihuahuas nails and they did great:) We will be back for sure, my Pom will be a regular at Blue Pooch.

Took our dog to Blue Pooch for her first grooming and it appears to gave gone great! No shaky-​legged afraid dog at the end!
She’s a mutt and probably not their usual clientele of fancy purebred and designer mixes but they still treated her like royalty. She came out nice and clean, all mats gone, butt fur, paw fur, and nails neatly trimmed (and not traumatized.). The groomer took the time to get to know her before taking her away and I think that made a big difference.
There was a first timer discount and they let us book a same day appointment no sweat. They gave us a gift of a poop bag holder since it is their anniversary and the pup left with a cute bowtie. Their indoor daycare was spacious and clean. Definitely glad we tried them out!

I recently moved to the Westside and needed to find a good groomer for my beloved Cairn Terrier mix, Ishie. After having read countless of Unilocal! reviews, which gave me anxiety, I decided to try Blue Pooch a shot… and thank goodness I did! Cairn care requires hand-​stripping their wiry coat in addition to giving them a haircut. The groomer did a wonderful job with both, and Ishie came back to me looking even more handsome than he usually does!
Blue Pooch is a very clean and welcoming establishment, with a warm and accommodating staff. You can tell that everyone who works there not only loves what they do, but they also truly care about the well-​being of your fur babies.
I feel their rates are fair and reasonable although many reviewers seem to think their prices are a little too steep. I have tried several groomers in Orange County, and grooming rates are more or less priced around $ 60. I have also tried Petco twice who charged me $ 50. This price didn’t include hand-​stripping, but apparently included some fleas and scratches as parting gifts both times. I challenge anyone reading this to find a place that does not sacrifice quality and attentive care for price. Honestly, I don’t mind paying this much if I can guarantee that my dog comes back to me happy, healthy and handsome!
Five stars! I couldn’t be happier with their service. I’m so excited that Ishie has found his new stylist!
