Finn had his first groom today, and he looks amazing! First off, we had to reschedule our appointment because Finn wasn’t feeling well. I asked if there was any way we could squeeze him in this week once he was better since we’re going out of town for the weekend, and they were so accommodating. The appointment took exactly how much time they had quoted me for, and the price is fair and comparable to other groomers I’ve looked at in the area. He was alittle nervous since it was his first full groom, but we will definitely be back soon. Highly recommend Heidi- I forgot to show my inspiration picture so she just went off me saying teddy cut, and he looks almost identical to what I had been imagining!

Awesomeness place to get your furry friends cleaned up like rock stars! Berlin Vom Princehaus loved her experience and never smelled so good! When they walked her outside to my van she came into her place in the co-pilot seat and just sat there grinning! Love you Temple of the Dog will be seeing you again real soon. Faithfully Michael Peter Knapp aka Capone Cycling Club Chicagoland ♥️

I have been coming here for about 3 1/2 years now. I recently moved away but I’m always willing to do the commute back. I never leave disappointed because they have my fur babies looking fresh and amazing every time. I believe you get great service for a reasonable price. Will always recommend this place :)Thank you Temple Team ♥️

Jess does amazing poodle-coat specific work and our dogs adore her. Just took the most recent additional to our family in for his first cut and he looks quite handsome 😊

Cooper & Lukas looking fabulous after Tempo visit!The first time I took my pups they did good. I have 2 goldendoodles and I even left a good review on google. The second time I took them the groomer they had decided to shave one of my dogs. I specifically told him not to shave his head and legs and he still did. The day I dropped them off the groomer seemed a liitle frustrated. I believe that he is not enjoying his job!

I haven't been to this place in a while but just received an email about a new method of booking online. It reminded me that the reason I stopped going to this place was because of how nasty the owner Tara is. The other groomers are the opposite. They have great customer service skills, are pleasant to deal with and very polite and do a great job with grooming.

Prior to coming to Temple of the Dog, my pup was raised in a groom shop out of state and had the same groomer his whole life (so we were nervous about having to find a new groomer). After moving to the area our dog was about 6 months overdue for a haircut. Today he was groomed by Heidi and she did an AMAZING JOB! He was in and out within a few hours and he looks and smells like a dream. The prices are very reasonable and the owner Tara and her staff are extremely friendly. So happy we found Heidi and Temple of the Dog!

My dogs have been seeing Jess for years! They actually are excited to see her which speaks volumes to me. They always come back looking and smelling amazing! I always recommend this groomer to anyone in Chicago.

I have a miniature schnauzer and they have treated him amazingly well! We have continued to come to Temple of the Dog and Cat because Jasper loves his groomer, Nyleen, and she always does a great job. She always takes the time to hear what we want done and how she can do it!

Our dog has never looked better, or been more calm post groom. They didnt even have to use the bag of bribe treats we left! Our pup is not always the easiest, we've been told, but Emily took incredible care of him and he came home looking and feeling awesome, without seeming like he'd been stressed at all. Thank you, Emily!

Nyleen, our exceptional dog groomer, is a true wizard with furry companions. Her dedication to pampering and grooming our four-legged babies is unparalleled. With a keen eye for detail and a gentle touch, Nyleen ensures our girls look and feel their absolute best after every session. Trusting her with our beloved furry family members is a decision we’ve never regretted. If you’re searching for a dog groomer with genuine care and expertise, Nyleen is the one to choose. Highly recommended!

The best! Everyone is so kind there and they really take their time to make the doggos comfy. They shave my girls’ beard no questions asked and never make her look like a poofy poodle!

The staff here is absolutely awesome! They are so kind and friendly. I've been getting my little guy groomed here for almost a year and the service they give is wonderful. Thank you for making my pup look fabulous everytime.

Have not had a bad experience here, Yogi loves his groomer and I can see she put detail on his haircut. He's a handful and I know he can be difficult but the groomer knows how to get him to cooperate. They gave him a gift for Christmas and he's loving it. Thank you and sorry if I don't remember the groomers name. Happy dog and happy owner ☺️

I’ve been taking my dog here for years. He always looks great and smells great when I pick him up. Fair pricing has kept us bringing him here even after we left the neighborhood.

Amazing, love this place. My fur baby is 8 months and been to other groomers before but not anymore. Other groomers say my dog is spoiled and needs training. Please tell me what dog that goes to the groomers, esp a puppy, likes to go, is trained and isn't spoiled? All cared-for-dogs are spoiled and staff at Temple understood. They treated my Porkchop as I would. Thank you Jessica, we love the look, and definitely planning to return.

I’ve been here on and off but had a dog, 2 times groomed by Vanessa but the owner said she left due to an injury and went on to tell me more information about it. Personally was uncomfortable but nonetheless, I still trusted Tara even though I preferred Vanessa as my groomer. When I returned for pickup, my poodle was shaved down. I was heartbroken and devastated. They claimed he was matted but Vanessa was able to keep a lot of fur. Poorly ran company.

Had a great first experience at Temple of the Dog. Everything was very clean and organized. Staff was professional and friendly and did an amazing job grooming my sensitive boy.

They worked really well with my pup even though he is very shy and scared of everything. I really appreciated that they listened to what I wanted in terms of how short I wanted his fur to be and asked me questions to make sure it was just right! They also completed his grooming fairly quickly which was awesome!

My large border collie/lab mix has the best time at the groomer! The team is always very responsive, helpful, professional, and friendly. Thank you all so much for always making Zero look and feel like a champ! He prances home like a true show pony every time.

Jess has been my pet's groomer for over two years, both her and the staff at the shop are magnificent, especially her of course. My dog's grooming is not only excellent but she returns home without any anxiety the way she used to from other shops and that's all due to the excellent care and skill the ladies provide and the price is beyond excellent for the job performance. If you care for your pet, temple of the dog and cat is the choice for you, but be prepared to be on time as the ladies do not over book so be respectful of their time by being on time.

We have been taking our pup here for grooming for the past year and we have always been very happy with her cuts. Our dog has very curly hair so she is pretty prone to matting and they handle this very well! Our dog also does not like baths or hair dryers, but they still manage to do a great job.

They take such great care of my miniature schnauzer and he always comes back looking like a million bucks! Thank you for always making my dog look awesome 😀.

Never thought to take my Pitt/boxer to a groomer before. I’ve always just washed him in my back yard. I was so impressed with the work they did I made a standing monthly appointment. I really thought what difference could it make? It is HUGE! My dog Merle looks better than the first day I got him. The care and attention to detail they showed to my dog is truly unrivaled. If you’re looking for a groomer GO HERE!

I've been bringing my dogs here for years since the previous location. They always do such a great job on Wolfie and Onyx. I really appreciate their consistency and how affordable they are. I always recommend them to anyone that needs their fur babies groomed.
