Animal Artistry Glenview, Illinois

Our three year old Scottish Terriers (Angus snd Fiona) were pampered with a bath and a haircut today. They look wonderful - certainly one of the best grooming that they've ever received. Angus is a problem child and in spite of his bad behavior the grooming is stellar. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You.

The only thing still cute about my dog is her personality.

Stay Away - April is the dog BUTCHER of Glenview! I literally did not recognize my poor puppy when I picked her up. Her beautiful fur looked like it had been hacked at with a dull hunting knife. To say her fur was uneven doesn’t begin to describe it. She also had a gouge under her eye, probably because this madwoman hacked at my puppies eyelashes. Who would do that? She cut off my pups beautiful lashes and left jagged stumps in their place. Just an absolutely horrendous groom and to add insult to injury, more expensive than the other wonderful places we’ve gone to in town. An all around awful experience.

Animal Artistry is a local gem...a valuable pet grooming pro, proving to be professional and responsive, as demand mounts. Dedicated to the community...maintaining an informative dialogue and warm relationship with current and prospective local customers.

April was really amazing. She took the time to explain what type of cut will be best for my dog. She also was great and answering some of the questions I had during my first time there. My dog ended up looking great. Would definitely recommend.

Highly recommend April & her staff. They always do an excellent job with our dogs & her rates are very competitive.

Just got my dog Molly groomed by April for the first time. She looks absolutely amazing. Best groom she has had since she was a puppy ( she’s 10 now) excited to say I have found my go to groomer now.

April is an artist thus a great name for her grooming shop....She will make your dog beautiful.

April did an amazing job with removing burrs in our Cocker Spaniel. I was sure that she would have to shave her ears but she was able to get them out. Both her and her daughter are very dedicated to animal rescues.

She is great with my temperamental dog. She always does a great job.

The shop is small and crowded but they do a very nice job and care about the animals. They shaved my two cats.

I want to share a story that touched my heart so very much about this dog-grooming business. My family just rescued a senior dog from a local facility and he was in terrible need of a bath and grooming to get rid of matting and help his visibility. I called the groomer that we had been using for years and other recommended groomers. No one could get us in for days. (Yeah, I know it is the holidays but I was desperate). Someone recommended April from Animal Artistry and I spoke with her on the phone and she could not have been more understanding, empathetic, and helpful. She SQUEEZED him in and assured me that she would not just shave him which is what some of the other groomers said would need to happen. He is now home and able to adjust to a new life on our house all comfy in his soft and fluffy fur. THANK YOU!!!

She does a great job and honestly loves animals. It's cash or check only. I only give 4 stars because there seems to always be an issue with the time the dogs will be done. They are never done on any reliable time. She even drove my dogs back to my house one time because she was so late, which was super nice and I was appreciative but I just wish the timing was consistent. I have two kids and we're a busy family most of the time so not knowing when my dogs will be done is disruptive. So if you don't mind the timing thing she does a great job and I'd recommend this place.

April is an amazing groomer. I have a Cavalier King Charles and a very big Bernadoodle. She groomed them better than I have ever had them groomed before. My little guy Riley is a little wild some times and most other groomers have always complained that he wiggles too much on the table and have never been able to get his coat scissored smooth but April took her time with him and he came out fantastic looking. I will be bringing them back regularly.

I have 2 Cavalier King Charles. I recently moved to area and looking for a bath and trim as expressed to owner, with the usual teeth clean etc. much to my dismay upon picking up, I barely recognized my pups. The long beautiful face and locks all shaved, top of heads shaved with scalps showing, and as if cut by a novel with a preschooler scissors. I see what would resemble crooked uneven bangs but this the trim aside their paws. I’m not a fancy person and had no unrealistic expectations other than my sweeties looking clean and fresh. Though larger tragedies we all know, but not the point as I’ve not seen two pups this botched till I googled the phrase and photos of other cavalier botches popped up. Yes the owner very nice but not about nice. I showed her the photos I had taken in person. She looked and said nothing. I now understand why only cash accepted. Email me if you’d like photos

We’ve been bringing our two full-blooded, long-haired Persians here for about a year, usually it goes ‘ok’ but this last time she took 6.5 hours to shave my cat, explained they “cage-dry”.. Honey, my groomer in Grand Rapids, MI took 45 …

One of the best groomers I've ever come across

Please don’t bring your dog there. I saw large dogs (3) in small cages. I was told when I called the day before for an appt as a new client she just had a cancellation but the was asked what time I wanted. …

Took my cat there today, he has long hair and gets knotty. April did a great job. She was able to comb most of the knots out, so less shaving than I anticipated. I found April to be knowledgeable about cats' hair, pleasant, and good at what she does. I'm very happy with how my cat looks. I highly recommend going there.

So rude on the phone, heard nothing but good things but now I won’t even try to make an appointment

Great service!! They do a wonderful job!

I have been going to April for almost 15 years to groom my cats and have nothing but positive things to say! She is very passionate about her work does a great job! It gives me comfort to know that when I drop them off, they are in good hands and are well taken care of. I have several friends who also have been going to April for years to get their dogs groomed and they can't say enough great things about her work! I would recommend her to anyone who needs grooming for their pets!

Our poodle has been groomed by Animal Artistry for six years now. April is an excellent groomer, and very knowledgeable about animals in general. She consults with her clients on grooming options for their pets. She builds rapport with her clientele, both animals and owners. If you are looking for a groomer, I would definitely recommend Animal Artistry.

April at Animal Artistry is wonderful with grooming all kinds of dogs. She is great with the shy dogs and the dogs that are not used to being groomed. I love the way she can make an old dog look like a million bucks. If you need a groomer, take your dogs here! You won't be sorry.

Animal Artistry is a first rate grooming operation. April has been grooming my dogs for years and I have always walked out with dogs that smell lovely have fabulous haircuts. April is also very knowledgeable about dogs in general and has given me helpful advice on various topics from handling a pet afraid of thunder to how to keep ears clean and infection free. Entering the 'salon', I am always happily greeted by a multitude of dogs from her own dogs to the puppies and dogs she fosters. It is clear April is a deeply caring animal lover and I highly recommend Animal Artistry!

There isn't any other groomer that I would recommend, other than April Perry at Animal Artistry. She has worked with Roll Over Animal Rescue for many years now, bathing, grooming and even fostering for our group. There have been many …

April Is an excellent groomer and a really nice person who loves animals!

I took my dog to be groomed and April said he was wonderful. His coat was clean and shiny, he was very happy and enjoys going to see April every visit. April has been wonderful on each of my visits and I won't take my dog anywhere else.

If your Pet isn't becoming to you.... You should be coming to Animal Artistry... Puppies that are three months and younger first grooming is free.
