Clean As A Whisker

The best that I've been to. She smelled cleaned, looked cleaned. The nails were nicely trimmed. The ears could've been better, but I plan to still use them for grooming.

Horrible!! Worst haircut my dog has ever received not to mention multiple areas of skin irritation. Would never bring my dog there again!!

Brought my bichon/shitzu mix Zoey to Clean as a Whisker after reading reviews on Angie List. They groomed her exactly how I requested & I absolutely LOVE how she came out!!!! I highly recommend Clean as a Whisker!!!

Her hair was so soft and shiny she didn't look like the same puppy to me. I also had tried many shampoos from different pet shops and they had the best products at clean as a whisker. The staff was very professional & very kind and gentle to Fiona. I would highly recommend them.

Made an appointment to bring my dog for grooming. When we got there, to me, they looked really busy, but they took us on time & called when she was ready exactly as they said they would. I don't know any business in any field that is actually time considerate these days. When I picked her up, she & all those other pups were all so beautifully groomed, with their autumn bows and scarves. Without exaggerating, they looked ready for a show! My dog was happy & smelled delicious! Danielle did a great job! I highly recommend this company!

I brought my daughter's 4 year old Shih Tzu, Bella, in for a bath and grooming. This was my first time using Clean as a Whisker. I went because of positive reviews on Angie's List. I had arrived a few minutes before they opened and had a chance to speak with a nice woman waiting to bring her dog in for grooming. She stated she loved Clean as a Whisker and had been bringing her dog there for years. Staff promptly greeted us when we entered the store. We reviewed what was to be done and I left Bella in their good hands. 1 1/2 hours later I received a call that Bella was ready. They did a wonderful job and Bella was happy as could be. My daughter, upon seeing Bella, was overjoyed. I'll definitely be coming back with my dogs. Well done!

We like them 100%. They were excellent with my puppy, she needs special attention, because she has a history of broken leg, and they were great with her. They were on time, she looked beautiful, she was happy and she wasn't upset by the whole experience. She is due to go back soon.

rOur little Pom "Angie"  had never been brought to be groomed before. She spent a large part of her first year having surgery to fix a broken front leg. So when I spoke to the manager Nichole about my anxiety bringing her for grooming, Nichole assured me that she would assign a very experienced groomer, Danielle. When we came to pick her up, she looked just like a teddy bear, smelled so sweet and was happy! Crazy as it sounds, Angie seemed proud of herself! I highly recommend this business & will go back again.

The dog has since moved to Boston to be with my daughter. Each time she
was groomed our dog returned happy and beautiful. I cannot remember
exactly how much we were charged but at the time it seemed expensive but
worth it because the dog was so well cared for. The staff were all
friendly and did what they said they would. I would recommend this place
to anyone wanting a good  quality groomer.

I have been taking my dog here for years now.  They are so caring & pleasant. My dog is very anxious & they really make her experience much better! They also don't take a crazy long time before I can pick my dog up like other groomers I have gone to in the past. I highly recommend them at Clean As A Whisker!

I used to bring my previous dog , an amazing yellow Labrador, to a PET chain CO. Most of the time it was to get her nails clipped, with an occassional grooming. They didn't really have to take much hair off of her due to her coat. Sadly she passed away after 14 wonderful years together and like most owners I thought I could never love a dog as much as I loved her. Enter Sophie- a designer breed (Mutt in my opinion) called a cavachon. She is half King Charles Cavalier and half Bichon Frise. More precisely she has the big, deep, human- like eyes of the King Charles Cavilier and when her coat is long she looks like every heavy metal hair band from the 80's! Her disposition ( just pertaining to vet and grooming visits) is completely submissive. She lets them do anything to her without a sound. The look on her face is just sad and pitiful , as to say " why must I endure this humiliation and can I get two bones for my troubles when we get home?" The first two times I took her to this PET chain CO everything went fine. She is a small dog , 14 pounds, and they would give her what they call a puppy cut. Our third visit to PET chain CO made me feel like the worst dog mom in the world. We picked her up, my mom drove so I could hold her on my lap in the backseat. The howls and cries that came out of her were non-stop. For the entire ten minute ride home she cried, barked, whined, etc.. It was like she was telling us about her ordeal. When I got her home , I looked her over and was horrified. They shaved her too close, she was all red, you could see her skin and she just shook in my arms the rest of the night. I took her to the vet the first thing in the morning and he said " they clearly didn't know how to use the razor, had pushed down too hard and burned her in various areas, the worst spot being her vaginal area." Sophie needed anti- biotics and a creme. Fast Forward to a party and my mother was telling this horrible story. A woman there said "she had Bichons and brought them to a wonderful place called CLEAN AS A WHISKER, on Hawkins Avenue in Ronkonkama . From the moment we walked into the shop, you could tell they truly loved and cared about each dog. I told them what had happened and they were so empathetic and explained that inexperienced groomers sometimes will start at the top of the dog in one long stroke, don't realize they are pressing harder as they move down and by the time they get to the dogs genitals the razor is so hot they burn them. Every visit to CLEAN AS A WHISKER has been a delight. They spend time explaining what they plan to do, listen to what you want done and really treat the animals with great care. Quick example, I always pay with a credit card but tip with cash. I had no cash on me and my friend who went with me said" just put the tip on the credit card.most places just pull the cash out of the drawer for tips." So I went in, paid with the credit card but saw there was no spot to put a tip. I said "I don't have any cash on me and thought the credit card would have a space for a tip, I feel terrible." The woman who rang me up said " Don't worry, we don't work for the tips, we work here because we love the dogs." That says it all! I did say "No, can you just ring up the tip and she kept saying don't worry, catch us next time, whatever." I told her I wasn't leaving until she rang up the tip so she gave in. Two years of grooming and I rate them A+++. Phone # 631-738-7888

I've been trying several places for the past couple years for my 2 yorkies because I wasn't completely satisfied with anyone.  I found this place on angie's list and seeing that it had a decent rating, decided to give them a try.  I am so glad I did!!  I have never seen my pup look this cute in a long time!!  They did EXACTLY what I asked them to do, going above and beyond!  In addition, they had brought to my attention the fact that my yorkie may have an ear infection, so they took extra care in flushing her ears out.  And the bow they put in her hair was soo cute!  I am more than satisfied and will be taking my other male yorkie there for a grooming relatively soon. 

Polo gets groomed every four weeks, he is treated like family and
I can enjoy my morning knowing he is enjoying his as well.  Steve and
Sue have such a good reputation for their knowledge of all breeds of dogs
and what clips they should or should not have,  They make sure you are satisfied
and happy with the end results.

I am so happy with the service here.  He is always willing to go above and beyond the service of dog grooming.  Whenever I have a question about my dog (health, training, personality, etc) he comes out and talks to me personally with body language to share his knowledge.  He provides me with tools to take home and try; whether it is a training color, teeth cleaning. he is very generous with his time.  Even when he is busy he stops to speak with his customers.  He always has free treats out for the dogs to try, free advice and information.  He genuinely cares about the pets and his service.  He is not nit picky about little things, he really helps. 

Tell them exactly what you want or they may use their imagination a little too much. Our cat came back with less hair than we thought she'd have, but overall she's clean. clipped and her claws are cut back. They'll call when your animal is finished. I never had a problem with this place.
