Live Love Pet - Honolulu, Hawaii

Rachel penny

Live Love Pet was recommended to me by another groomer who I called but was booked for the next few weeks. I am so glad I ended up at LLP as they are wonderful with my pups! I love the appointment windows they work in which allow me to drop off, return to work or run errands, and pick up hours later.

The pricing is excellent and I really appreciate that one price includes a full groom compared to many places who charge for "add ons" like nail trim, paws, ears, etc. They are friendly accommodating and my pups are always happy and pretty when I pick them up. The "bling" is a fun perk as well.

A few days after their last appointment one of my pups decided to roll in yuck at the dog park. I called from the park to see if on my way home I could swing by and have them just spray her off as the park had no hose. 10 minutes later I was there and they took her back for a wash and blow dry AT NO CHARGE! You don't often find that level of customer service and care these days. My pups will go here as long as I live on Oahu.

Such a wonderful groomers. My Cairn terrier needs special grooming (stripping his hair), and Krystal is fantastic. And they do such a good job at deshedding my husky.

Like other customers, my dog was cut by the groomer and I was not told about it at all. When I went to pick up my Maltese, he had a large flower lei wrapped around his neck several times. I didn’t think too much of it but later realized the groomers were trying to cover up several cuts that ran from his upper chest, up his neck and on his chin. One of the cuts was about 2 inches long by .5 inch wide. There was also a long cut that looked like it was a knick from the buzzer. There was no bleeding so I couldn’t tell he was injured until the next day, when I noticed some dried patches on his skin. Over the next couple of days, the injured areas became oozy and scabby. I am so infuriated by the lack of accountability and ethical standards at this place. You could tell when you drop off your dog that the place was overbooked and they are trying to rush through grooming as many dogs as they can. God knows how my dog was handled by these people. I am upset that I didn’t stick around to watch over him and instead entrusted the groomer to do their job. This was my first and last time at this place… NEVER AGAIN.

Don’t go with Sonya if you are in search for a profesional groomer. Although nice, Absolutely terrible groomers. Wish I could give zero stars. Just returned to the islands and looking for a groomer. Phebie, my one year old mini schnauzer has been groomed once a month since she was two months old and never have I seen such a terrible/ uneven cut. PLUS after telling me she ( Sonya) knew what a schnauzer cut looks like butchered phebie’s beard and completely ruined my pups adorable esthetic. Also note how chopped up the eyebrows are and to add to the poor standard of grooming they didn’t even remove her ear hair as they had said the would. Had I been thinking clearly I should have refused payment. Or at least asked for half off. An absolute grooming tragedy. First three photos are of her cut after visiting this groomer. The last photo in the sweater, is a previous cut from our old groomer ( not on island. )

Not sure I would recommend this place for anxious pets.
Took my shelter pup here for her season grooming, I was attracted by their “fear free,” philosophy with lots of anti stress relieving practices. My dog can get very anxious in situations that mimic a shelter environment, and she will pace, whine and bark. This is something that is not likely to ever change, my veterinarian and trainers do not forsee this behavior changing so we do our best to accommodate it.
Upon pickup, my dog was reacting exactly how I expected. However, what I did not expect was the mention of a “bark collar,” by the owner. While it was not used the first time, I believe the groomer was hinting that it would need to be used next time. This is absolutely unacceptable. A bark collar is a wonderful tool, however placing a bark collar on a dog with a negative association to the kennel is only going to make that association worse. That is not the correct way to use a bark collar. I’ve had multiple trainers say so when asked. I am so glad this was brought up in conversation because I would never have known! I will not be bringing my dog back again. Definitely do your research and ask questions to ensure the best fit for your pup before you go. My dog looked flawless and absolutely stunning when she was done I will admit.

Bonnie was super professional both times I made an appointment. My dog was thoroughly cleaned, and I felt their rates were reasonable considering I brought a German Shepherd.

Live Love Pet was reccomended to us by our vet and we could not be happier we gave it a try. Yes you may pay a little more but to support a small local business I don't mind. The haircuts our pup has been given here have been the best she's ever gotten. 10 out of 10 would recommend. Pic included for extra cuteness.

Very nice people but I did not like how my yorkie looked. I asked for a yorkie face cutt even showed a picture of him. This whole island is filled with you-tube groomers that's over charging. Beware.....if they say "grooming is expensive." Nine times out of ten they don't know how to cutt and you might as well follow a you-tube video and DIY! All the groomers here do only one cut on all dogs. I'm so sick and tired of paying $65 - $80 for horrible cuts when he looks his best for $30 with all the same extra accommodations and amenities. The Groomers on this island really need to step their skills up, especially for the prices they charge!
