Some people on YT have had good luck with their local Petco and PetSmart groomers, but I agree with you -- I have watched through the windows and was horrified by their treatment of the dogs and their bad styling.
I was looking at a website for one of our local upscale doggy spas and was sickened when I saw pictures of kennels with the dryers hooked to the doors. Brought back terrible memories of the thread here of the poor Yorkie who was nearly scalded to death by such a dryer.
I will always do my own grooming on my doggies.
