About Pretty Pets

Dog and Cat Grooming Salon

Located at 8369 Richmond Hwy, Alexandria, VA 22309, Pretty Pets operates as a pet groomer serving Alexandria in Virginia. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

Pet groomers bathe, brush, trim and style dogs and cats, and most also clip nails, clean ears and express anal glands. A full groom usually includes a bath, blow-dry, haircut and tidy-up; a bath-and-brush package skips the haircut and suits short-coated breeds. Salon groomers work from a shop with tubs and drying stations, mobile groomers bring a fitted van to your driveway, which is easier on anxious, elderly or reactive pets, and self-service dog washes rent a raised tub, shampoo and dryer by the session. Cat groomers handle lion cuts and matted coats with calmer, quieter setups, and many salons offer add-ons such as teeth brushing, de-shedding treatments, blueberry facials and paw balm.

Hours are published for 5 days a week. Typical hours are 8 am–4 pm. It is closed on Monday, Sunday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. You can reach Pretty Pets at (703) 799-4700; calling is usually the quickest way to ask about availability, prices or directions. Its website is prettypetsinc.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.

On Google it holds a rating of 4.5 out of 5 from 119 reviews, which is a strong result for a pet groomer in Alexandria and suggests consistent service.

Alexandria is in Virginia, in the Southeast, where summers are long, hot and humid, winters are mild, and afternoon thunderstorms and the hurricane season from June to November can change plans at short notice. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Alexandria follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

I wanted to love this place, but unfortunately that was not the outcome. The staff were extremely friendly, but the grooming skills were lacking. There were missed spots, and some areas were shaved down more than others. His ears were cut far too short. Sadly, we won't be returning.

Zuzu, our Giant Schnauzer, been seeing Ebony at Pretty Pets for almost 2 years now. We love the work she does for our girl and for a great price. She listens to exactly what we want and takes great care. Thank you!

It’s really disappointing that every time I think I’ve found the right groomer for my dogs, something goes wrong. I picked them up from Pretty Pets today and didn’t notice until we got to the dog park that one of them was limping. Turns out, his nail had been cut too short. What’s most upsetting is that no one mentioned this when I picked him up. I understand that accidents can happen, but I should have at least been informed. If they had told me, I could have taken steps to make sure he was okay — wrapped his paw, checked in with a vet, or monitored it properly. Instead, I was left unaware until he was clearly in pain. After trying to contact them multiple times with no response, I’ve decided to leave this review. It’s made me realize I may need to learn how to groom my pets myself — it seems too many grooming professionals aren’t trained or attentive enough to care for animals the way pet parents expect and deserve. Here’s a photo of him before I even realized he was in pain :( We won’t be returning to Pretty Pets

Pretty Pets has been great! I was very sad to leave our last groomer when we moved to VA but I’m so glad to have found this place. Jace does a great job with our mini golden doodle Pippa. The price is very fair and the scheduling is always easy and quick. I’m picky about how our pup is groomed and she always looks great. I really recommend this place!

I utilized Pretty Pets for a few years and the grooming was great for my 3 dogs. The prices are lower than other grooming facilities in the area. The last & final time I went there: My dog came home with a corneal abrasion. I took him directly to the vet and they confirmed that it was not from my dog scratching his face and somehow scratched his own eye. The vet said the cut on his eye was too deep to be from his paw. The vet concluded that he believed that either the groomer's scissors or hair clippers fit my dogs eye. Initially Pretty Pets said they would pay my dog's vet bill, only to retract the statement after my vet sent them a fax the $400 bill. Now my dog is blind in that eye. I will never return and suggest that others be wary of their services.
