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

After a long road trip my baby needed grooming badly, and they fit me in same-day. I was especially surprised that they were able to take her when I got there, as at least 5 other dogs were dropped off in the 5 minutes I was there! They must have a very loyal clientele. I was impressed by how clean it is here, and was hit by a pleasant shampoo smell as soon as I walked in. The woman at the desk discussed with me the style I wanted and even called before she started cutting to be sure I got what I wanted!! Now that's great customer service. read less

Found glowing reviews on Yelp & Angie's List which made us feel comfortable with our decision to schedule our 9 month old 65 pound pup for grooming.

Made the appointment over the phone and a few days later took our dog in for the the first wash & cut at Modern Pet.  Confusion at check-in, receptionist asked if we wanted our usual cut? Only then did she get the assigned groomer for our first visit.

Sadly, at pickup there was no exchange with the staff or groomer relative to our expectations being met which seemed odd as we were a NEW CUSTOMER?

Note - Becca DID A GREAT JOB grooming our pup and his tail which we leave long, never looked better! read less

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

Their groomers are skilled, and are always happy to see my big dog. We've brought my buddy here a few times for full grooming sessions, as well as nail clips, and every time he is handled with care and comes back looking amazing. Also, he's never come back upset, or with any bruises, cuts, or scabs, like he experienced from a local mobile groomer. We learned our lesson and won't compromise on quality just for the convenience of such a service. We're Modern Pet Salon customers for life. read less

The people there are nice and the only reason I give 4 stars.  Honestly, I am not sure we will return. read less

I dropped off my 5 year old Golden Retriever Finley to be groomed and trimmed up for the warmer weather. One previous groomer left a lot to be desired both in the haircut itself and their treatment of Finley (they put him in a crate when specifically asked not to). This time I brought a picture along and handed over Finley and the picture to the friendly ladies at the front desk. A few hours later I went to pick him up and nervously waited for him to be brought to the front. When they retrieved him he seemed full of energy and happy, not trembling and scarred like the previous place! He was fluffy, smelled good and they did the best job of blending the longer scissor-cut fur with the shorter clipper-cut fur, which isn't easy. I had my 9mo. old son with me and the lady told me next time I could call ahead and they'd walk Finley and belongings to my car for me! Happy (handsome) doggy, happy parents. We will definitely be back. read less
