Thank you Patrick and Luis! You guys are the best, my beagle BOOGER and my jr terrier have never been happier. It was quite the drive to get to you but I hope you open a location in the Inland Empire soon. The dogs looked their very best and the service was excellent. Open more locations!

Pros: Best grooming experience my dogs have ever had!

Cons: Need more locaitons!

I recently took my dog the Sparky's dog grooming on Olympic Blvd in Beverly Hills. I asked for a haircut and to keep the hair on top that I had grown out. They suggested some type of haircut that they said would look great. When I picked him up and took him home, I noticed that he was very upset. Whenever I picked him up from my usual groomer he was always so happy. Not only was he upset but he looked terrible and he looked dirty still. I know what my dogs hair looks like when It's washed and it wasn't. When I called them they said they washed him and it was too bad about the haircut. They said I would just have to wait for it to grow out. I would think they would want me to be happy and offer to re-cut his hair. I usually take him to get groomed at Tailwaggers in Hollywood. They are the best and I don't care how far I have to drive, I will always go there. If you want your dog to be treated well and look good, take them to Tailwaggers. Don't go to Sparky's.

Pros: Close

Cons: terrible servicce

Beware, Caesar in Santa Monica does not follow specific grooming instructions given to him. I specifically gave instructions for him not to touch my dog's head, ears and tail...all the dog has left is his tail. It took us several months to grow out Caesar's original cut and I was shocked and disappointed. When I addressed his lack of consideration for very clear verbal and written directions, he told me he didn't care that I was unhappy, that he had more than enough customers without my two dogs. All of this occurred after it took Caesar two hours to show up for the appointment because I was told he was enroute on the bus. So, not professional or considerate or polite.

Cons: Doesn't follow specific grooming instructions; very poor customer service

I just took my little poodle Peanut to Sparkys and it has been the BEST experience we have had with any groomer ever. The staff was excellent at asking me exactly what I wanted done and when I picked him up he looked wonderful and smelled great not to mention how happy he was. I highly recommend this place and I can't wait to take Peanut back!

Pros: Best groomer in town!

Cons: More locations!!!!

I recently took our Poodle CURLY to Sparky's. She is usually very timid and shy but the Groomer Luis knew just how to handle her. She looked wonderful when we picked her up with pink bows and all. Thank you SPARKY'S!!! By the way it's a great price as well.

Pros: Ambience

Cons: Need more locations

An all around fantastic experience for dog and owner, alike. The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. They surmised the age and various breeds of Bowie at a glance, and answered a host of questions I had as a new dog owner. Great to go to a place that not only loves dogs, but loves dog-owners as well. AND they did not try to sell any service that Bowie really did not need. Now to the brass tacks: Bowie was fully trimmed and brushed out, organically shampooed and conditioned, teeth cleaned, nails clipped and quite happy when we got him back. And they were done in less than 2 hours. All for a very reasonable price. Sparky's on La Brea is the only place I'll take Bowie.

Pros: Everyone in the store came to greet my dog when we entered.

Our dogs Mozart and Jiggy have been going to Sparky's now for at least a year and the service is impeccable! We recently had Mozart and Jiggy groomed at their newest location (VERY close to Pink's Hot Dog's, I might add) and it was exactly what we've come to expect from Sparky's: friendly service, a great grooming job, and our dogs are sooo comfortable there! I highly recommend Sparky's to ANYONE with a pet, especially if their pet is a little skittish. The groomers' highly trained hands will put your pet right at ease. And they are right next door to a great little Italian place that has awesome chicken pannini's so enjoy lunch while your dog gets groomed. What more could you ask for?

Pros: Great Staff. Very Friendly! Wonderful with all kinds of pets. Near some good eats!

Cons: NONE!

Sparky's treated my dog REX wonderfully. He came out looking beautiful and smelling great. All their products are organic which is a big plus for me. Rex and I thank you very much for the wonderful service. Thanks! Gabi

I brought my little Yorky puppy to Sparky's after a friend of mine had recommended them. My friend had just raved about Sparky's so I had to try it. I had high expectations because of how my friend had described her experience and they lived up to my expectations and more. They handled my high energy Yorky with great care and made him look so cute. I will be using Sparky's for my dogs bath and haircuts from now on. Sparky's is GREAT!

Pros: Great service

Cons: none
