Animal Artistry - Glenview, Illinois

April Perry, owner and groomer at Animal Artistry, has been grooming dogs and cats for over thirty years, and her skill and experience with all breeds of dogs and cats is quite evident.

This past week I took my Portuguese Water Dog puppy, Clara, to April for a bath and clip. Apart from the grooming the breeder had given Clara, this was her first visit to a grooming salon.

April patiently and thoughtfully answered my many questions and thoroughly addressed my concerns. I love the way she and her staff do not rush through a grooming, but take the time to do a thorough job while ensuring the dog (or cat) is comfortable, and not stressed. There were brief rest periods between the drying and the scissoring, for example. April assured me Clara would be very well rinsed after the shampooing, and she was.

As you can see from the photos, April transformed my baby Clara into a beauty queen. I was very happy with the results. I very highly recommend April, and her excellent staff at Animal Artistry. Your BFF is in very good hands there.

5 stars plus for April and the staff at Animal Artistry! I have a long haired breed puppy who was sheared at another shop. April is assisting me in growing my pups hair out to breed standards. She graciously gave me a brushing tutorial. She taught me techniques to brush my pup without being nipped. It works! I recommend April and Animal Artistry without reservation.

I recently took my furry friend to this dog groomer, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The groomer was not only skilled but also showed genuine love and care for my pup. They took the time to understand my dog's specific needs and preferences, ensuring a personalized grooming sesion, the only thing is that i waited long to have an a appointment.

I don’t know why this place has good reviews. There’s an African American lady I cannot remember her name maybe Dimitri? Something like that. She’s SWEET! She was so informational and kind to us. As to the other workers there, so rude and treat the animals so poorly! And they kept telling the lady that was giving us information to stop talking to us and answer the phone in such a snappy rude manner. They were treating her badly as well talking to her with such a bossy attitude. My fiancé and I stopped by to play with the kittens. From the 10minutes we were there, the other ladies were treating the dogs they were grooming so poorly. It was so disgusting. Shouting at them to stay still, grabbing, tugging, pulling at their neck and body to hold them down. Absolutely heartbreaking.

April does a wonderful job grooming my German Shepherd. She's a very skilled groomer. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a new groomer!

They are some of the nicest people around. They seem to really enjoy what they do. First of all, that I bring my dogs in pretty knotty and they have never shaved them(like other companies have).
The last time I took them in, I mentioned that it was son's bday and I needed the dogs back by 3pm. They said no problem. I called around 1pm to make sure everything was on time. They said they are running late, but asked if they could drop the dogs off, because they lived nearby.
I said sure, and on top of it, they dropped off bday balloons for my son.
That was such a nice gesture. They are the best here.
Thanks
