I found this groomer via a Groupon deal a while ago. Despite the fact that I live near uptown Charlotte and have many closer options, I continue to drive out here. While I have tried some other local groomers and they have been good, they can't compare to Modern. My dog always looks amazing- unbelievably soft. Their prices are some of the best you'll find, too. They're very accommodating and customer service oriented. The groomers and staff are lovely. My dog is extremely anxious and hates being anywhere without me (I adopted him when he was older). He is comfortable here around these groomers and they really go the extra mile to make sure he is comfortable. Even in the time he is waiting for me post-groom, they have a nice, relaxing environment as opposed to the stacks of crates at some larger groomers. So, I will gladly continue to make the 30 minute drive out to Weddington because, quite simply, they are worth it - best value for the price you pay. read less

We will return with our other fur babies including felines. Thank you for helping the dogs' humans relax with a new groomer.  Changes for our fur babies is hard, but we are very happy to have MPS as our new salon. read less

Our 11 year old spitz looked brand new when I picked him up. He was even wagging his tail in his new cut.

My dog was happy, looked great, still smell amazing. Very friendly and responsible staff. I would strongly recommend Modern Pet Salon!

At this point Weddington is no longer convenient but I continue to do a two hour drive (30 minutes each way from Myers Park,  trip to drop her off and pick her up) because I'm confident they treat my dog well and she'll come home clean and happy.

I've popped in and checked out a few more local groomers given there's so many in my area and immediately walked out seeing the way they treat the dogs or talk to staff or customers.  After 3 years with modern pet I've never heard them speak ill to or about a customer or dog.  I've watched then take the time to let new puppies "adjust" to going back into the grooming room without their dog parents.  

Perhaps the best compliment is the gentleman that came inside a coffee shop to track me down and ask where my dog was groomed while I was on vacation in western NC. He couldn't find a groomer he was happy with and hoped for a new groomer when he saw a new poodle in town. Unfortunately he didn't want to drive to Charlotte.  

Tips: book ahead if you want a specific groomer or a weekend appointment.  Plan for a few hours if you have large breed.  My standard takes 3-4 hours for a full groom. Drop offs can be a bit hectic at the first morning appointments because everyone arrives at the same time. Be patient and keep your dog entertained but most of the pet parents are very understanding that a little doggie play is likely to break out in the lobby.  

Thanks Becca and everyone at Modern Pet! read less

We took our Shih-tzu Gabbie in for a haircut and they did exactly what we asked. They were very attentive to detail and even pulled up some pictures online to make sure we were all on the same page as far as looks! They even gave her a cute little bow! She came out happy and ready to show off! 🙂 read less

It was easy to book an appointment online (i love booking anything online), and I was able to get an appointment fairly quick. The groomer came out and met me before starting and went over all the the options. The groomers we used in L.A. always had my dog for several hours, which I didn't like. Grooming is stressful for a lot of dogs-having to wait hours in a crate or cage before being groomed has got to be frightening and boring. MP only had my dood for the amount of time she was groomed-just about two hours. My dog was definitely not as stressed when I picked her up-and she looked great! This is our groomer from now on! read less

Their customer service is bar none and their skill level with dogs is top notch. They treat our dog with a level of care and compassion that makes us feel at peace and confident with leaving him in their care. We have used both locations based on convenience. The standard is the same. I would highly recommend them. read less
