The Groom Shop PDX

Our 19 weeks goldendoodle puppy got his first groom here today and it turned out wonderful! Our puppy is skittish and timid when it’s his first time doing something so I was slightly worried he would panic. But Humberto did an amazing job and was calm with our pup and everything went smoothly and even got to trim our pup’s nails. Oh, and our puppy smelled Amazing after. Chef’s kiss!

Humberto did a fantastic job on our dog Buddy Rue! He was so gentle and kind to Buddy. Buddy has had previous grooming trauma but he seemed to really like Humberto. We will definitely be back.

We took our almost 8-month-old Goldendoodle puppy to see Humberto today for her first groom. I can’t say enough how grateful we are to Humberto and his amazing patience, calm demeanor and gentle touch to help guide a puppy through her first grooming. We heard his voice soothing her with frequent reminders that she was doing a good job, which of course made our dog parent hearts full. She looks and smells great and is a little more confident thanks to this experience. Thank you so much Humberto!!! We will for sure be returning and sending others to Groom Shop PDX.

Albert is so gentle and has such a calming vibe. My dog has really bad anxiety at most groomers but is okay coming here. We love Albert. This pic isn't very good but he does a great job with my shih tzu mix.

I cannot say enough how happy I am to have met Albert and found The Groom Shop PDX. First, I want to say how amazed we are with Albert. He took the time to connect with our dog, Karti, and was so respectful of his space and boundaries. Karti is not a big fan of meeting new people, but Albert made it so easy for him to feel comfortable with him. I am very picky about who I let groom this sweet boy. I knew right away I could trust Albert with my Pomeranians double coat. He was knowledgeable about his coat and did the perfect groom for him. My dog has never looked this good! We watched most of his work and were so impressed with how calm my dog looked and just how comfortable he was being touched by someone he’d just met. By the end of their session my dog was zooming all up and down the shop and I could tell he felt so beautiful! Seriously, you need to bring your dogs here! You and your fur baby will be in the best of hands with Albert. He will actually listen to you and your dogs needs/preferences. You will not regret making The Groom Shop PDX your go to place to pamper your pup!

I cannot recommend Albert and The Groom Shop PDX enough. We have been lucky to have Albert groom our goldendoodle for the past couple of years. He is calm, caring, and exceptionally skilled. Daphne had a hard time with grooming until we went to Albert. She now goes in calmly, and is always happy to see Albert. She comes out looking amazing and smiling. We are very thankful to Albert for always taking such good care of our precious girl.

Magic! 🌟 I got a rescue pup last year and he had trauma around grooming. Since then we have been trying to find someone who can work with him, his anxiety, and his sassiness when he gets groomed. It has been tough - many groomers wouldn’t take us. Albert was willing to take us on and he worked magic!! I sat in on the whole groom and saw how gentle and encouraging he was with my little pup. My dog did not snap or get really scared like he has in the past. His haircut is so cute - he looks like a little cloud. Albert has a truly unique spirit to work with dogs and exudes a vibe that gives them comfort. He only works with one dog at a time; other groomers will take on numerous dogs and cage your pet till they’re ready & they don’t have the same ability to work with an anxious dog. So many dogs don’t like to be groomed, not just my dog, and by the end of the session my little one trusted Albert. Albert really helped allay anxiety for me, too, because it’s been a hard journey until now. There’s even parking for drop offs.
