Murphy’s Mutts & Cuts

I took my very anxious and large dog to Murphy’s for a much needed bath and nail trim. They were able to get me in the same day, and offered the last appointment to help with my pup’s anxiety. The shop owner was so patient with him (and me!), which has not been my experience with other groomers. Best of all, Winston doesn’t stink anymore and he seems to have forgiven me for making him get a bath. I highly recommend this small local shop. Check them out!

We love taking our bulldog Portia here. She’s very anxious around other dogs, and Missy makes sure she’s comfortable. I love that there is never more than a couple of dogs at the place at one time, and that Portia can sit by the window while she waits for me to come pick her up.
Missy is also very conscious of a specific dogs needs. Last time we were in, she used a new cocoa butter shampoo to sooth Portia’s sensitive bully skin. I only wish she still did the blueberry facials!

We take our three dogs here. We have two mutts and a bulldog who is very stinky. Murphys gets them all cleaned up and they love it. The owner is very nice and prices are reasonable. We recommend them to all our city dog friends.

Despite all of the positive reviews, I actually had an extremely horrible experience here.
I dropped my dog off, and then ran a few errands. Not quite an hour later, I received a phone call telling me I needed to come back quickly. I walk in only to see my dog crying in a corner and blood all over the place. His nail was trimmed too short (which is a common occurrence). The lady said she let my dog air dry, but couldn’t get him to come back to the table. I’m not sure why she let my dog air dry while he was bleeding all over the place, and not sure why I needed to drive back to pick my dog up and put him on the table. After I did so, I was planning on waiting inside until she was finished; however, she told me I needed to leave because I was distracting my dog (I was sitting on the bench by the front door). So, I had to drive back abruptly to pick up dog up, put him on the table, and then leave for her to finish. I’ve been to multiple dog groomers, and have NEVER had to do this.
Ignoring the fact that my dog was traumatized, and I had to come back only to leave… she didn’t even do what I wanted her to do. I asked for a kennel cut (to which she didn’t seem to understand) only to receive a dog that didn’t seem trimmed at all. She told me she was going to shave his mustache and eyebrows, but she «thought they looked too cute» — despite me specifically asking for these to be trimmed.

Murphy’s is the place to go! Our dogs absolutely love Missy, she is super sweet to them. Grooming day is one of my favorite days of the month. The dogs always come home looking even more adorable. Highly recommend!

My half Lab half Golden is admittedly a sissy when it comes to getting a bath. He LOVES the ladies at Murphy’s, and that makes me feel a lot less guilty taking him to get groomed! Trustworthy, super nice, and Frais goes in wagging his tail just as much as he does heading home. Would recommend to anyone that loves their pet like family!

Our golden loves the ladies here! The best part is how kind they are to our Charlie; he’s a rescue dog, who needs to feel comfy. So glad we found them, we’ve become regulars.

My dogs get the full treatment at Murphy’s. The cost is always reasonable and my dogs always leave very happy! The gals that work there are very helpful and nice.

Murphy’s is the best! I took my pups there soon after they opened. The groomer that helped me really seemed to take my lil guys needs seriously and she had a few rescues of her own marching around and inspecting my pack. I left my babies with them and went to La Vallesana for some grub and an horchata. When I came back to pick them up, they were squeaky clean, smelling great, and had the cutest summer cuts. Not just a clean buzz cut like some places do. The cuts were so cute I almost asked them to do me next! They also put a pic of my pups on their facebook page lookin clean and cute so I could brag on them to my FB friends. How cool is that? I will definitely be going back. I rarely write reviews on Unilocal,but Murphy’s really deserved some internet kudos.
