Barking Lot - Cleveland, Georgia

Can’t say enough good things about this place and the people who work here. My dog has never been one to let anyone clip her nails without a fight, not even us. We’ve taken her to so many places and it’s always been a nightmare. They last straw when we almost gave up Was when her vet even refused to do it unless she was sedated. It was just dumb luck that we found the parking lot and decided to give them a try as a Hail Mary since we did not want us to sedate our baby. It was an unreal experience. I could not believe how calm my dog was from even the moment she was greeted at the door. They have a way with animals and our Dog loves going there. They are so sweet to her and I think she just senses their good vibes. We have taken her for nail trims but also for baths and other grooming. They are the very best! The staff is so pleasant! We are so glad that we found them for our dog!

Today was our first – ever trip to the BARKING LOT and we were so glad we chose this team of professionals to care for our pups. When I called yesterday, I spoke with Kevin, and he was extremely helpful and spent time with me to understand the needs of my animals. This morning, when I brought them both in, I was welcomed, and felt assured that my pups were in good hands. Our decision to bring them here was even more solidified when we picked them up this afternoon. My goldens are beautiful and fluffy! I also heard how well behaved they were. I highly recommend taking your pups to the BARKING LOT!
Thank you team, so very much for a wonderful visit!

I brought our pups in yesterday for grooming. One of our pups has very short hair, the other's is longer, so they have different needs. And they are both fairly large (70+ pounds each). We came flying in the door and they were immediately swooped up by the staff while I checked them in.

When I came to pick them up, I couldn't believe how good they both looked!!! I didn't consider my short haired girl a candidate for a whole lot, as she has short hair. But she had gotten just as much love and attention as my longer haired girl! And they both were so much happier, smelled good, looked great!

When I got them home, my husband even commented that this was the best grooming they'd ever had. Great job ladies and gents!!! Of course, nothing stopped them from rolling in the grass when they got home, lol. But they still smell good a day later!!!

Stacy came to our house and groomed our Great Pyrenees for us. She did an amazing job and his coat has never looked more white and beautiful! We adopted him from a rescue and he can be very nervous and anxious but she was very patient with him. By the end of the service he was calm and happy to be clean. Thank you Stacy! Farley will be a returning customer for sure.

We are from Florida and we called them to see if they could get our dogs in while we were in town and they took great care of my babies. They are kind and professional. I highly recommend. Thank you the barking lot!!!

Thank you to the Barking Lot for making Pixie beautiful as always. Not many groomers around here are Familiar with the Chinese Crested breed but stacy and her employees always make pixies skin look sooo much better. They always suggest what products I should use to help clear her acne up. They also helped me figure out the cause of her allergies and what foods and products to avoid. We got her on a bath schedule to treat her skin and its almost completely cleared up. I work crazy hours and they always work with me on letting Pixie stay there as long as I need her to or as short as I need her to depending on my schedule that day. They are so observant, and always call if pixies stomach issues act up or if they have a concern. They also always cut her hair exactly like I like it. Best groomer around. Definitely give them a try if you havnt. You won't be sorry. They do only take cash or local checks. When we were a new client it was cash only but after being established we were allowed to give checks. They are a small, local owned business and I get why they don't take debit, so I am happy to pay cash or check. The staff always handles themselves professionally and respectfully. Today I witnessed a man fussing at the girl checking in because he had to go to work and she was taking to long. She politely told him that she would be with him in a second and after a smile and nice attitude the man changed his tone and apologized. It takes class and patience to be in the customer service industry...and these guys are great handling themselves. We always try to leave a nice hefty tip to show our appreciation.

I can not express how much I LOVE the barking lot. Not only do my dogs always look great, but the staff is beyond amazing. They go above and beyond to help make sure your animals not only look great, but feel great. The staff are all extremely talented and definitely "animal people" and are all very kind, caring and loving. They are Often doing more than their job entails, and it shows they are there because they love it. I wouldn't ever take my dogs anywhere else's ever again for boarding and grooming. My dogs love Mrs Stacy and are always super excited to see her. They come back happy, clean, and relaxed when I pick them up.
