Lil' Critter Dog Grooming Lombard, Illinois

John is perhaps the only groomer in the western suburbs who confidently handles our hypersensitive Pomeranian's nail trims. We could not go anywhere else. John has solved our dilemma and to boot is reasonably priced.

This place does a great job! Our poodle actually likes getting groomed here!

Always a pleasure.Does great work and loves his furry clients.

John was amazing with Molli he did a great job!

This was only my second time going to Lil Critters and John does an awesome job with my Goldendoodle puppy (Tucker)! Tucker looks amazing and is so happy! Thank you John!

Great place to have your pup pampered very friendly and great service !

On behalf of Broozer thank you John for all your TLC over the years. The “old man” has sadly retired but we will forever be grateful for your kindness towards him especially in his last year.

John and his team are wonderful.

New groomer for us! He was fantastic, and when I picked our dog up he was relax and not a basket case. A great job was done on his hair cut and nails! We found a new groomer! Thanks!

John is by far the best groomer around the Lombard area, we take our Dog chocolate there! He is very afraid of men and John has been able to work with him with zero issues! Please stop using petsmart and call John he is seriously the best!

Great customer service and John was great with my dog.

Great place to take your fur babies.

This place is the best! John and his assistant are absolutely wonderful. We have a small Chuhuahua mix named Stella and she is so cooperative for John. He truly is a dog whisperer! He has a gift and we're so thankful he's using it.

They always do great work!

My parents take our dog here and love them so much! Recently, John noticed something about our dog and suggested getting it checked out. Turned out to be a very aggressive cancer, requiring surgery asap. I f it wasn't for him and his amazing knowledge we would have never known to take him to the vet until it was too late. John literally saved our little guy's life, and we couldn't be more grateful!

These guys are great. My pup is timid and scared of most new experiences, and they were fantastic with him.

They do a great job on my labordoodle. Big thumbs up

Would never go anywhere else. John is the dog whisperer. He has helped me out in doggie shampoo emergencies. My miniature schnauzer loves him and he always gets a great cut.

What a great place! They were so nice to squeeze us in when my dog was covered in burrs. John went above and beyond to get the burrs out and even trim him up. Such nice people!

Brought my golden retriever into them did a great job and super nice people definitely will be going back

My did was way over grown hair.They gave him the puppy cut.It was great to pic him up and he looked so good.Fast service.

I have had a lot of dogs groom's but this place is far the best! Would never go any where else. Best people and kind!

They alawys do a great job

They took our pooch in same day and did a wonderful job!

My Tiberius Maximus is an absolute terror. Well, he's a terrier mix, so you know how that goes :) He nips, fights, twists....anything he can think of to try to get away from the clippers. Anyway, I always groomed him myself (can anyone say perpetual puppy cut?) But i used Lil' Critters for his last clip and they handled him AMAZINGLY! I was so pleased with the result, I'm definitely using them again!

Joe does an awesome job!!! Treats Trixie with a lot of kindness.

I had rescued my dog so I was a bit nervous how she would react since she hasn't been groomed in a long time by her previous owner. My sister recommended Lil' Critters since she takes her Shitz Tzu there. When I first went to Lil' Critters I explained to John that I rescued Mollie and that she hasn't been groomed for months and that I was a little nervous about her reaction. After the first visit, 2 years ago, Mollie see's John every few months for a haircut. John will treat your dog just like his own. He does a great job! The prices are reasonable and scheduling appointments are never an issue.

Had another great doggie visit with John. He's been really good to my miniature Schnauzer for years. Our dog was terrorized from the previous groomer where he would come back hurt every time. John fixed his anxieties and said he never has a problem with our dog. Personally I call him the "Dog Whisperer" and I can see this every time I go in. Each dog is loved and cared for. There's no crazy aggressive not-so-right atmosphere. He talks to each of them and they respond to his dog-loving personality. I highly recommend John. I moved but still travel to go here. Appointments are never a problem. He has fit us into his Saturday which is the only day I can bring our dog in. Be aware that another benefit is that you drop off your dog in the AM and pick up when he calls you. Why not go get some shopping or errands done? It works out great. I love going to Lil' critter and with all the crap grooming places who are looking to make the money, it'd be a big mistake to miss this gem of a place. If you're looking for the best possible care, some tlc and the best cut for your pet (because in addition to being the Dog Whisperer, John is truly an expert groomer) check this place out. You won't want to go anywhere else again. I'm very grateful for finding this place and you'll be too.
