I have used Petsmart once and had a bad experience, but this isn't to say Petsmart is not a good choice, I really think it depends on the individual groomer. They cut Bella REALLY close between the eyes and it took FOREVER to come back...this was when she was only 4 mo's and I was just taking her for a wash, NO CUT at all...so needless to say we haven't been back. However, I did find a FANTASTIC groomer who happens to be retired also, but takes a few little dogs in her home. It's worked out wonderfully for us, so maybe try calling the woman that you like who is now retired and see if she takes any dogs and if not, I bet she can recommend you to someone who is just as good!
Good Luck!
