Uptown Dog Grooming

Uptown can just about be mistaken for a spa for your pet, their service is top notch. They always seem to be busy, so schedule in advance. Your pet will be pampered and well attended.

After several years of other groomers I have finally found the right place for my Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. Because of the summers in the desert I have my Ruby done with a Lion Cut and my Black and Tan with a short puppy cut. Not traditional I know for Cavaliers but they love being cool and they look Cool too. While I was there I observed another Black and Tan with traditional grooming who looked absolutely fabulous as well. Great place and I look forward to many years with the girls here. Kudos to them!!!

I was a little concerned when Adrianna told me she was the new owner of Uptown… Whiskey looks fantastic after his grooming. All of the notes from his previous grooming were followed. He was groomed on time and a happy dog when I picked him up! Thank you

This is a great place. I had 3 dogs and am now down to one. They really love the animals and my dog leaves there happy with no problems. They are the place you can trust will give the kind of care for your dog that will make you very happy.

Love this place! I have brought all three of my dogs here for the past few years, and they always come out looking wonderful. Joanne is very nice and all of the girls are fantastic at what they do! Thank you

Fabulous groomers. Needed a place for the boyfriends dog. They made him smell good! Will be back soon. Thanks!

Joanne and her staff are the best! I initially took my two dogs there three years ago based on the reviews I saw on Unilocal and I can’t imagine going anywhere else. I appreciate being able to pick them up in two to three hours (instead of having to leave them there all day) and, most importantly, that they are not upset by having been there. The dogs are always treated gently and with great care. Joanne and her staff are always very positive, energetic, and friendly. I’m very grateful to have found Uptown Dog Grooming.

I’ve finally found the perfect place to take my little Merlin! I’ve researched all surrounding groomers and had his first two haircuts done somewhere else and was not completely satisfied. Taking him to Uptown Groomers was the best thing I could have done for my fur baby. They are amazing with him and all the other fur babies there. No cages and always in contact with the the staff. Merlin is a little rascal and Joanna knew exactly how to take care of him. I love this place!

Had my two «furry babies» groomed for the first time and I am thrilled with the result! They look amazing! The salon is clean, the staff is professional & friendly! This is now my dog groomer of choice! Definitely would highly recommend them. They give «TLC» to their 4-​legged clients!

Our first time at Uptown Dog Grooming and it was Fantastic!!! They really took great care
of our toy poodle, very professional staff and our new «baby» looked amazing!!!

Used these guys for the first time today. Was quite pleased. Was nice to actually be able to hear them on the phone as well as to be able to hold a conversation without having to scream over the dogs. Our poodle schnauzer looks great and seemed to be happy there. A little pricey but oh well. We will go back.

We finally found a groomer that groomed Nelson correctly. We have fought poodle grooming for a Lhasa! Cuts that have been hideous, etc. We had a groomer that we went to for 14 years in the valley, but we would of changed but out dog was too old. So to find UPTOWN GROOMING for our new baby, we are thrilled. It took us a little time due to the fact we read 1 review that Uptown did not pay enough attention to them. Who do you want the attention paid to, you or your dog? Of course your dog. I have also found them extremely nice and welcoming. We found our place.

Just had our three «kids» groomed here for the second time last week! I really like this place because they really care about the dogs. And most importantly, they do a great job!!! The day we went, they had a special that included a blueberry facial and teeth brushing, among other things. That was well worth it too! All three boys seemed like they had a nice time at the spa.
Highly recommend this place!

Based on Unilocal reviews I took our 6 year old Yorkie to Joanne and was thrilled with the results. She took a lot of time getting to know the dog and the style we prefer. She offered to let us come back in a few days and make adjustments to the cut if we wanted. She is clearly interested in having satisfied customers!
The shop itself is open and clean and organized. The dogs can be seen at all times and are kept in open cubbies when not on the grooming table. I liked the set up of the shop very much.
When we came back to get Chloe, not only did she look adorable with her fresh cut, she was also happy and relaxed. Again Joanne took time to go over the cut and asked questions about areas that may be too long. She said she would rather leave something a little longer because you can always go shorter. I agree and we asked her to trim a little shorter around the face. Joanne made the adjustment pleasantly and perfectly.
We were extremely pleased and will be returning on a regular basis. I’m so happy to have found a great groomer on the first try thanks to reviews on Unilocal

Called to inquire about getting my 35lb Labradoodle groomed. At first, she quoted me a price range, of $ 65.00 to $ 78.00, depending on the condition of the coat. Then you hear another woman yelling in the background. The young lady on the phone then informed me, rather curtly, that her boss (the lady yelling in the background) is no longer accepting Labradoodles, as they already have too many clients with Labradoodles. The woman on the phone then explained that they are currently very short staffed and do not have the time to groom Labradoodles, as they are time consuming breeds to groom…
Not only did this place seem unorganized, they may not be staffed well enough to properly groom and care for our beloved pets. Furthermore, the curt tone and the woman yelling in the background suggested that the establishment is lacking professional staff.

My experience started out as a phone call asking if they had time to quickly clip and file my dog’s nails. The girl on the phone said «Absolutely, we can get her in right now». I took Bailey over right away. As soon as I walked in the door, they knew I was the person that just called. The owner greeted me with the look of disdain. The girl, assuming the one I spoke to on the phone, grabbed her clippers and said she would be right with me. The owner quickly ordered her to grab the muzzle while staring at my dog. I stood there confused as she made this statement as Bailey was by my side and without even asking me if she had any behavioral issues. Merely judging my dog by it’s breed. The girl that came around to do Bailey’s nails was very sweet and could see that Bailey was very sweet and let me just hold her instead of muzzling her. I inquired if I would be allowed to bring her back for future grooming to which the owner replied that if she had known Bailey was a pit bull type dog she would have turned us away over the phone. She continued with saying that if one of her other customers came in they would be livid to see a pit bull type dog in there. Not a minute later, an older lady came in with her Pomeranian, which went straight up to Bailey and they gave each other kisses, even while she was having her nails filed. The older lady even commented on how sweet and beautiful Bailey was. I found the owners immediate discrimination and judgement to be embarrassing and offensive. As a business owner myself, I would never turn away a potential customer without good reason. I don’t normally write reviews and don’t like to post negative things but if you are a parent to a bully breed you should know in advance so as to not receive the same reaction I did. Perhaps the owners should consider posting notices that they do not accept bully breeds or surveying customers over the phone before allowing them an appointment.
On a positive note, the grooming salon did smell and look pretty clean.

Very thoughtful and caring staff. I took my 6 month old Lhasa Apso puppy to Uptown Dog Grooming for her first grooming and they did an amazing job! The initial consultation was thorough and well thought out. My puppy ended up looking better than ever. They were kind, and gentle with my dog and handled here with care like true professionals. Great job! I will definitely go back and will recommend to my friends.

I love this place! My dogs always look beautiful when they leave. my dogs are both pekineses and are blind seniors, so sometimes they can be scared. They love going here! They take such good care of them. They understand they are special needs and treat them with the utmost care!

Superb Dog Grooming Experience.
We have been visiting Palm Desert for that last couple of months. In that time, our Bichon-​Shi Tzu mix was groomed and tidied during three visits to this shop. Each experience was the same. Outstanding work and very nice people. First class grooming in the desert.

Took 2 goldens and 1 baby yorkie too them and couldn’t be happier that we found them! Alex was so sweet and thoughtful, helped me get my 120 lb beast into the car! Even made sure to tell me how good the baby was!
Not sure the woman’s name but she was so friendly and really cares about dogs! When I arrived to pick up my dogs she was holding the baby you could tell that she was a dog lover too!
Great cuts, quick and reasonable! Ive found a new groomer! Yeah! There are so many not so good groomers, so glad to find them!
