Bark Street Dog Spa Charlotte, South Carolina

I was very disappointed taking my dog for service here. I have gone a few times last year and the groomer they used to have left and now they have a very rude groomer who seems entitled to treating customers and their dogs as she wishes. News flash? There are plenty of great groomers in Charlotte with much better service and worth looking for after my past experience. I have a miniature schnauzer (12 pounds) who in the past I’ve paid $70 including tip to get him groomed. This last time I asked for the same service I always have... that they trim his hair to let it grow out. For starters the groomer was running late to the appt..which I made no fuss and understand things happen, on top of that they raised his price to $85 (not including tip) that’s a $25 increase considering I would leave a $10 tip. When speaking to the groomer she said that the price can fluctuate depending on the groomer and time spent. I find this to be extremely unprofessional and after some research this is the only place I’ve heard of that will increase their price to whatever amount they wish. It’s extremely disappointing on top of the fact my dog came home with burns and scratches as well. TERRIBLE service go to a professional who values their customers and will treat your furr baby with more care.

I was extremely disappointed when I took my pup here last weekend. I scheduled a simple groom to be done and they could not give me an estimate on how long it would take. After 2 hours I called to get an update and they were not able to give me an estimate because the one groomer they had available had something come up and she was not able to be there to groom the dogs all day. I drove 30 minutes to come here to get my dog groomed and I could not wait much longer as I had plans later in the day so I picked him up after 2.5 hours. Beware of over scheduling at this place, I understand places are understaffed right not but do not take on work that you cannot complete in a timely matter or give customers a time window on!

Dropped my dog off at 12:55, came in to pick her up at 5:00 and she STILL wasn’t ready, in fact they were just getting started on her. Had only booked her for a simple bath and a nail trim, then they told me that they were understaffed. I understand that, however - you determine how many appointments you accept/book for that day. Don’t overbook appointments and you won’t be running four hours behind.

Such a nice stuff. I love how they treat my dog. And very low price.

They definitely take good care of my pets

It is amazing the animals get a really good hair cut and at good prices I recommend going there

Great job, friendly, efficient groomers

My dog was at this groomer for almost 7 hours for a bath & basic haircut. My pup is very timid & cooperative, so 7 hours is extremely excessive. I was told it was because they had too many new dogs, but it seemed like they overbooked for the 2 groomers working. The groomer nicked her in several spots when giving her a sani-trim. Her face & beard hair is uneven on each side. While my girl smelled fresh like baby powder, I'll find a higher quality groomer who won't take 7 hours for a bad haircut.

They always do a great job with our goldendoodle!

Bark Street is my go to groomers for my lovely little poochie. The stylist clean up and take wonderful care of her while she is here. The staff is absolutely lovely and quite understanding if you're running a few minutes behind or have more than one dog you would like to drop off at a time. Booking an appointment is quick and easy on their website and they're reasonable priced. Next time you consider getting your fur child the special treatment consider this small business.

Great work! My dog Choji was very cute and the ladies up front were extremely knowledgeable and sweet!! Was glad to find a new groomer so close to home :)

NEVER take your dog to get groomed here. I brought my dog home from getting groomed here to find out she had been cut under her front legs, where her legs meet her chest ON BOTH SIDES. She is raw and bloody and will not get up to walk. All she will do is hide in a corner and whine because she is in so much pain. I am so disgusted and my heart is broken for my pup. DO NOT TAKE YOUR DOGS HERE!

They always take great care of my golden girls ????

The staff is wonderful and do an amazing job on Sheldon!

Dog is severely injured after going here and can barely walk! Never go here !!

They are the ABSOLUTE BEST!!! So HAPPY with the outcome❤️

Finally found a proper groomer! They called to confirm “style” and took care of our old pup with great care. Thanks again y’all!

Not many people can handle my dog, they were very kind and it the best cut hes ever Had. Will be a permant customer! He smelled amazing as well as his breathe.

Such sweet people!!! My dogs look amazing and smell amazing (: extremely happy with their work

Love everyone!!!! They have been taking care of Miss Clover for many years!!!!!They are great!!!!!

Don’t take your pup here unless you want them shaved to the point of not recognizing them anymore!!

I love bringing Bella to this great dog salon. Bella always come out smelling soo good and pure white they way I like it.. thank you Amanda and staff we will always be permanent customers..

Always so clean and happy at pick-up.

They do an amazing job with my Siberian Husky

They did a wonderful job working with my German Shepherd who is not fond of getting his nails cut. Very patient and kind.

Went here for the first time, when I got my dog back he was cut all uneven, and had a small cut on his stomach from the clippers! This was after they called me on accident and told me they got my dog mixed up with another one. The staff is nice, but we won't be going back.

Amanda is amazing. I've been taking my miniature schnauzer to her for about 6 years and he's cut perfectly and meticulously every time. Well worth the drive to the other side of Charlotte for me.

Love this place! They did such a great job on my chow chow. The only problem I had was I end up paying $5 more than the quoted price was given that day. Its okay since it was my dog first haircut and she did wonderful job. Its a far drive from where I live,but I will make this my pup permanent place to go.

Couldn't be happier with our experience! The owner is very friendly and knowledgeable. I was terrified that our puppy would come out looking crazier than she entered, as it was her first haircut and we let her hair grow too long. My only requests were that she didn't come out shaved or looking like a poodle (she's a -Doodle mix breed), and she now has the most adorable puppy cut I have ever seen and feels heavenly. Will definitely return :)

I'm complimented for weeks after a grooming on how good my Saint Bernard looks after they do a full service treatment on him. It's only $60, and they work their tail off on him (as well as all the loose hair in my dogs fluffy tail!). I made mistake of self-grooming a couple weeks ago, which they also offer, and have great facilities for--I just don't do even half of the job they do, and it costs just over half the price of a full grooming (which did include a toenail clip). For a shorter haired or smaller dog this could be great though. They have aprons, strong shampoo, light shampoo, conditioner (of which i used a 16oz bottle of each, and they refilled them)! I agree with some of the other comments about the staff to some degree, they sometimes come off of a bit rude and subpar service, but they take exceptional care of my dog, and charge me fairly. It's nearly half the price of PetSmart and they do tons better job. I even have a friend at another grooming place that gives me 80% discount and do a good job, but if I want him beautiful for weeks to come, I go to Bark Street. On one occasion, they squeezed me in when they were full, and I got there right at closing. He looked great as usual, but insisted they weren't quite done. Two staff stayed for an additional hour and brushed and trimmed and brushed and trimmed until he was perfect. If you can be tolerant of the sometimes lackluster human interaction of the staff, you'll be very happy with the services.
