Pet Styling by Sherry

When Box Store Grooming fails … Styling by Sherry prevails! The staff is awesome. Mary is great. Knows her breeds & how they are trimmed. We are fans!

I bring our Cocker Spaniel there for his cut and style. He’s pretty easy to groom, doesn’t mind the blow dryer and a good sport about being wet. We let his hair grow out until he’s pretty shaggy. He’s white, so he’s impossible to keep clean. I’ve always been very pleased with the service we’ve received. He looks (and smells) FANTASTIC when I pick him up. They clean his ears, teeth, trim his nails… the whole enchilada all for $ 55. I think they even bathe him in a «man» flavored shampoo so he doesn’t smell girly. (The Hubs likes that.) Never had any problems with cuts or him being «afraid» of the place. He’s a pretty happy guy, and the ladies all dote on him.
I have had issues with other places trimming all the hair off of his ears, but after I explained what I liked, he’s come out looking great each time.
The only thing I don’t like is the time it takes to get him done. It’s def a lot quicker than the Petsmart across the street from us. If I drop him off by 8 we usually get him back by 3.

I took my goldendoodle here for grooming and BOTH of her ears had been cut. One ear was bleeding so bad that I had to take her to the vet. The groomers paid for the vet charges. The staff was very kind and friendly dropping off and picking up, but I won’t go there again…

I am a silver persian breeder… I have brought 7 of my persians to them over the years… several are very hard to groom, one female, Jubilee is very hard to groom… they are able to get her shaved in a lion cut, she always comes home very content and happy. I’ve tried others in the past, Sherry’s is the best!

DO NOT board your dog here. I didn’t want to board them here over Thanksgiving because of a bad taste they left in my mouth previously (lost my dog’s collar after grooming, other dog came home with ear infections/​cuts after grooming, dogs were EXTREMELY hungry and thirsty after boarding there previously), but we waited until it was too late and had no other options. However, they would have gotten the same treatment it seems if we had just left them in our backyard for 3 days.
When we picked the dogs up the staff barely said 2 words to us and were acting very shady. The dogs came out and I almost burst into tears when I saw my little dog. She looked like she had been through war. She was wet in some spots with a white-​milky substance all around her eyes and on her back. The dogs didn’t say a word in the car. We knew something had happened. I asked one of the workers there how they did and she simply replied «good.» Really? That’s all? No details?
We got home and our dogs (especially my little one) have NEVER drank so much water. My fiancé then noticed a large cut/​hot spot on below our lab’s head where his collar was. It was all red and wet, like some one had noticed it and tried to wash off the blood. Our dogs then ran upstairs and hid under the bed.
I was in TEARS. I didn’t know who my dogs were. They were terrified of us and probably furious at us for leaving them in such a hell hole. This place should be shut down immediately.
My fiancé and I returned to the place and I screamed at the staff for answers. Sherry, the owner came and had a bunch of unrealistic and just plain stupid excuses for what could have happened to the lab. I became tearful once again just thinking how our dogs were treated. We demanded our money back for the boarding and she offered to pay for the vet bills for the lab, which she absolutely will once my fiancé brings him home from the vet today and we hope to get an answer.
Don’t board your dogs here. Our dogs are like our children and I am still heartbroken over what happened. They called my fiancé back today still with no explanation of what happened to our lab. Once again, SHADY. They said a few times how «hyper the lab was.» Oh you think? IT’S A LAB! You are a DOG BOARDING BUSINESS. If you don’t want to board large dogs nor if you have people trained to handle large dogs then you should specifically state so. And him being «hyper» should have nothing to do with this. Yeah, he was hyper– so what did you have to do then to calm him down? I guess we will never know.

I took my 16 month old mini schnauzer there one time, the women were super friendly, and they seemed to be good with my puppy. The price was good. Having said that, they did keep him there for 7 hours, and I finally went up there to get him and they weren’t done yet STILL, so I’m guessing they rushed his face because it was sheared SUPER short on the neck and face. Also, they said they didn’t pluck his ear hairs because he «didn’t need it yet» and they «didn’t want to push him». (he is a hard dog to groom) He didn’t appear to have any injuries, but the next day he sprouted up with bumps all over his neck and behind his ears. I waited about a week and took him to the vet and they said he had a bacterial infection. It got worse though, so I had to go back to get medicated shampoo and anitbiotics. The vet said the only way to get that is through a nick in the skin and the clippers would have had to be infected with bacteria. That was a month ago and I am still trying to get rid of it. I called them to tell them about it, so they would know why I wasn’t coming back and got NO apologies or anything. The owner did say they disinfect their equipment daily, but I would think they would need to do it after EACH DOG to prevent the spread of bacteria??? I am just wanting to warn people who are thinking of using this place. My neighbor referred me to them, and so I wished I had looked on here and I never would have brought him there. Poor baby. There is a happy ending though, he went to a new groomer today and was done in, get this, ONE HOUR, he didn’t shake or get scared, he loved this new place. And they even did his ears… :)

Losing this place was one of the largest drawbacks of moving out of Houston! Seriously. We were so lucky to find this place for our English Bulldog. The staff is awesome and friendly — and always went out of their way to make sure our dog had a good time in boarding and daycare. They do an excellent job of monitoring the dogs and making sure that every dog gets good exercise and socialization. My dog was always exhausted when she came home and she (as well as her bedding) was always CLEAN. I never had a problem at this establishment — and would highly recommend it to anyone who has to go out of town and doesn’t want to worry about their 4 legged counterparts.

One of the best places to take your fur baby! They offer grooming, boarding, and daycare and have the friendliest staff. The prices are reasonable and I have never been disappointed. They are passionate about what they do and offer top notch service to my dog (and me)!
