Groomingdale’s

Location: Easy to find. Ample parking.
Hours: Convenient.
Price: Beyond reasonable. We can afford to take our boys twice a month given how affordable the services are.
Scheduling: I usually just call in the morning of and get a spot later that day although I’m sure appointments are easier for her I appreciate how flexible she is with us.
Quality: Amazing. Our boys love getting groomed by Kelly. She’s so sweet and nice and they always come out looking fresh, feeling soft and smelling great.
I can’t say enough good about this place. We look forward to remaining customers as long as we are in the area.

Kelly, owner of groomingdales, is a gem! I am so happy that a friend recommended her to us. PJ, my 12 lb Maltipoo, LOVES Kelly. He is always excited to start his visit with Kelly and looks so handsome when i pick him up. More importantly, he is happy. Kelly’s ‘clients, which she calls her kids, are all happy coming and going. Any pet owner I have ever chatted with, only has glowing remarks about Kelly and usually comments that their pet loves coming to Groomingdale’s. Kelly is quick, loving, sweet and has a heart the size of Texas :-)

New to town and needed to find a new groomer for my furbabies. Kelly returned my call quickly and was accommodating with my schedule constraints. I arrived to a clean waiting area and friendly staff. Dogs were cut within a couple hours and home before I knew it. One of my dogs had to be cut shorter then normal because he has a weepy eye that is a nightmare for groomers but aside from that the dogs were so handsome with their cute little ties!!! Thanks Kelly.

I have been taking Millie the wonder bassett to Kelly since they opened at their location on Oceanside Blvd. It is only 5 minutes from my house if I catch the lights just right so very convenient. Kelly treats Millie like an old friend when we get there and she cares for her «client’s» like they were all her own. She loves what she does and it shows. I would highly recommend Groomingdales.

Took my dog in and they did an excellent job! He really need a bath and he came back smelling great and looking awesome!

Kelly is the BEST groomer, ever. Not only is Kelly experienced, but she has a heart of gold. Kelly speaks to the pets like they are hers. We have been going to Kelly for years and all of our dogs have and do love her. She is honest, caring and very kind. She even sits on the floor to groom and clip if the dog shows resistance to standing on the grooming table.
We would come from Nova Scotia to see Kelly. She will have our business for however long we own fur kids and we will always own dogs. :-)

Saw this place driving down Oceanside Blvd on our way to school… Kelly the owner is over the top sweet! Did an absolutely fantastic job on our 2 year old Yorkie… it was exactly what I wanted. she is very reasonable price wise… I dropped him off at 8:00 am and he was done by 10:00…it didn’t take long to get an appointment on the exact time and day I needed.
Kelly acted like she has known and loved my dog forever… and I told her he would be a handful to groom. when I picked him up and asked how he did she said he was not a problem at all…‘Aunt Kelly’ has the touch!!!
Would HIGHLY recommend this place! Will definitely be back!

I have been bringing my two small dogs (15lbs & 12lbs) to Groomingdale’s for years. I have had bad experiences with other groomers in Oceanside so I am very hesitant (and so were my doggies) about trying another new place.
Now my dogs get excited when we pull in the parking lot because they know where they are and they are going to see Kelly!
The haircuts are always great and the prices are very reasonable. I completely trust Groomingdale’s with my dog’s!

I needed to find a place close by because my mom’s cat had a lot of matting on him and was turning into a mess fast! So I found this place via Unilocal because the other mobile grooming place didn’t do a great job at all when my other cat was alive, knicked the hell out of him causing an infection on his side. Groomingdale’s was perfect because it was close by, specialized in matting, stated they have been doing this for over 25 years so has had her dealing with all kinds of issues, and didn’t need proof of vaccinations. Dexter has his vaccinations, but since he has been bounced from multiple homes, we didn’t have the actual papers to verify he is, but it wasn’t a fuss at all with Kelly.
I called Kelly and stated that Dexter is a large cat and has plenty of knots all over him, so instead of just shaving off those spots, my mom wanted a lion cut. She had an appointment available the next day at noon, which was perfect! The only part that sucked was I had to drive him to her office and he HATES car rides, but I feel as if all cats do!
It took about 3 hours because she had other animals she was working on, but I think the shaving and giving him a flea took about an hour and a half. Everything altogether costed $ 60, which is a steal in my book because that mobile grooming place was $ 100 and didn’t do as good of a job as Kelly did. Plus Dexter is a huge, fluffy cat and has lots of fur, so I thought it was going to be more because of all his knots, but she said he was a gem and was no problem!
Quality and customer service was the greatest and won’t consider any other place because this is the best place to bring your baby (cat or dog)! Call for an appointment though because I don’t believe she does walk ins, but you definitely get next day appointments at the latest!

I have had a lot of dogs and many groomers over the past 30 years… Kelly is by far THE BEST!
She is kind to the kids and the parents… try her, you will be so pleased!

Today I took my 14 year old cat Homer to Groomingdale’s at the suggestion of my cousin who takes her dogs there to Kelly. He had never gone to a groomers and hates noise and lots of activity. I normally wouldn’t think of taking a cat but as a long hair, he had gotten very matted this summer and would not let me take care of it.
During our phone call to schedule an appointment, Kelly was sensitive to our needs. She made sure to schedule Homer for a time when there would be no others and she would also have as much time as it took. I was very happy before I even got there. Kelly is a very calm person that one can tell loves animals and is fantastic with them! Homer was a good boy and Kelly talked to him the entire time she worked on him and allowed me with them to also keep him calm. By the end of the visit, Homer was actually sitting on his paws and purring loudly! I think that is the best review Kelly and Groomingdales can have! He looks great now and I will take him next year at the start of summer so maybe we will have NO mats!!! Thank you so much Kelly! You calmed Homer and also ME very much!

Took my little Terrier mix in to get his summer shave. His hair was longer and thicker than usual this year. It was my first time with Kelly and I liked immediately how she talked to my pup. I asked her to leave his «feathers» on his ears and head, and she did a great job. He looked so cute, I’ll for sure be back!

I’ve been taking my deaf cat, Bella, to Groomingdale’s for 4 years. She always comes out looking cute and smelling good. Kelly just loves her and is sensitive to her deafness. I know she always takes good care of her!

We’ve been taking our dogs to Groomingdale’s since Kelly’s mom was there running the shop. Our dogs love Kelly and we love her. She gives them loving and tender treatment. Thanks Kelly!

I have been taking my dog to Groomimgdales now for about a year and I have nothing but positive experiences.

I took our puppy here after she decided that it was a good idea to roll in an unidentified dead animal (?) she found on our walk. They did a good job cleaning her up and sent her home tail wagging, smelling better than ever.

If you are looking for a caring, experienced dog groomer, I highly recommend, Kelly owner of Groomingdale’s. (I vet recommended her and she is very good.) Kelly didn’t keep our dog longer than necessary and his cut was gorgeous. She seems to like what she does and it shows. The address is incorrect for it is located on Oceanside Boulevard and Rancho del Oro is the cross street. Do not get mixed up with another groomer in this area. I used to take our dog to Gretchen but since she is no longer with us I switched to Groomingdales. Our dog and we are very pleased with the results and grooming Kelly gave Marley.

Kelly did a great job on my 16 year old Malamute. Plenty of TLC.

I really like this place. They did a great job and it only cost me $ 35. for a full groom. They also do organic flee dips and shampoos which i love.
