They shaved all the whiskers and lashes of my puppy without my consent. Terrible, saddest day of my puppy’s life. No more comments
Response from THE DOG FROM IPANEMA
"Dear [Member Name Removed] Our sincerest apologies. Cocker puppies usually get their face clipped to have the look of the breed. All we needed was to know your wishes. The last words of your wife were "you guys are the specialists - I do trust you. Do your thing" So sorry for the disappointing experience, after 34 years in business in Miami the last thing I hope for is a disappointed client. Jarbas Godoy"

Fantastic, they made time for my pooch, treated him and us well and we're very detailed in the way the cut his hair. It wasn't just a shave they made him look great. You can tell they love animals and love what they do.. It's a bit pricey but no other groomer has done a better job, not even close.

Appeared the groomer did not listen to my instructions nor look at the photos I provided,  becausere my pup's haircut was nothing like we had discussed.  Was very disappointed and will not return.

They are great! They can always accommodate my dog and they treat her very well. She comes back happy and beautiful. They are always on time and let me know when she is finished promptly.

I have been a client for about 6 years, first bringing in my yorkie who was very fearful and ultimately had an incurable disease. I have never seen him so comfortable when handled by "strangers", it almost made my cry when Jarvis held him and he didn't even flinch, very unusual behavior for him. Now I am the proud mommy of Lyla, a rescue Maltese who was a breeding dog in a puppy mill for the first 8 years of her life - I would never even consider having somebody else handle her, she has already had many negative experiences with people and doesn't need any more. Dog of Ipanema rocks. Sure it isn't the cheapest place to have your dog groomed, but you do get what you pay for ad if you truly believe that your dog is a family member then you, like me, expect only the best for your family. Dog of Ipanema is THE very best for your four legged family.

They are very professional and compassionate.  They understand animal people.  I think they are a little bit pricey, but I don't object to it because they give me really good service.  I will always use them.

They are very expensive, but I trust them a lot. My dog is older, and they will do special services for me, such as call me once her grooming is done so I can pick up her without her needing to sit in a cage the rest of the day.

everyone was very professional. The main reason for not going back was cost. Parking can be a little challenging.

They are top notch. The owner, Jarbus, is a class act. He is like the dog whisper.

I think there are a lot of people that take their animals to them for grooming. It seems to be a popular place. I think they do a great job on my dog and I will continue to take me dog there. They are very friendly and professional and I find it very easy to schedule appointments.
