"Venus is amazing and so talented at what she does. She loves dogs and it is so obvious in her performance. She is always so friendly and inviting and shows she really cares about each dog. She does an amazing job at being thorough with the complete grooming process. Luke aways looks so happy and his cut is even all over his body. You can see she has not left any area untouched. I recommend Venus highly !"

"Venus is the Best groomer I have ever had! She is very detailed, my Dunkin loves to come see her. Golden Retrievers are known for their tails. Venus shapes it perfectly! I do not have any stress with leaving my baby with her at all! Would highly recommend if you want your fur baby to be pampered."
"Venus did an amazing job grooming our Yorkie! I've taken her to several other groomers but none have done as good a job as Venus! I highly recommend her!"
"Venus did a beautiful job with Sadie. I wanted her cut short for the summer, but I love her ears with a bit of fringe and some fluff on her tail so Venus managed to pull all of that off and I think Sadie looked absolutely adorable when I picked her up. Also, I love that Sadie got one on one loving treatment the whole time she was there. I would definitely recommend Venus if you want someone who absolutely loves your fur baby like you do."
"Loved my dogs style from groomer. Ears cleanest I have had in 6 years,nails looked the best than I have had in the same six years. Groomer listened and followed directions on what I wanted. Gigi was very calm when I picked her up and smelled great.I would give Fancy Pet Salon a 10."
"We absolutely adore Venus at Fancy Pet Salon—she’s been grooming our two fur babies for a couple of years now! Both of our Shih-Tzus struggle with separation anxiety, but Venus is so patient, loving, and gentle with them."
"Your dog needs Venus! She is one of the best groomers we’ve ever had for our very furry English cream golden retriever. Not only does she do a great job, she was also very willing to accommodate our request for fragrance free to help with my husband’s allergies."
"Venus has been grooming my standard golden doodle for several years. I highly recommend her. My pup loves her and she does a wonderful job and her rates are very reasonable."

"Bringing your puppies to this place is a truly wonderful experience—definitely 100% recommended.🫶🏻❤️"
"Venus is so sweet and she always does an amazing job with Hopper. She was recommended to me by a friend about two years ago and I haven’t gone anywhere else since. Hopper is very anxious when getting groomed but he does a-lot better with her and I don’t have to worry as much when I drop him off. She is the best!!"
"Best groomer ever, fees are more than reasonable. The little guy always looks great after his session and loves having Venus groom him. I am happy to have someone so competent in our area."
"If you’re looking for a groomer who is genuinely patient, skilled, and kind (especially with nervous pups), Fancy Pet Salon is it. The whole experience is calm and private—one dog at a time, no cages, no chaos—so your dog isn’t sitting around stressed in an “assembly line” environment. Venus takes amazing care of Finn. You can tell she truly cares: she listens, communicates clearly, and the results are consistently chef’s kiss—clean, adorable, and exactly what you asked for (plus the cutest finishing touches like bows/bandanas). We feel so lucky to have her in the Lynchburg area. Highly recommend!"
"You love on my dog Zoey and she has such a hard time with commotion and anxiety.. she loves to come. You make it so easy for her and us. Animals know when you really care for them and you do."
"Venus has groomed my goldendoodle, Bennington, for several years and has done a fantastic job. Every time we arrive she greets him warmly and enthusiastically and he is so excited and happy to see her. She is excellent at communicating with me, and when I arrive to pick him up he always looks so handsome. She has always done a fantastic job each time she grooms him, and I know he is so loved while he is with her. I would absolutely recommend her!"

"Finally found a groomer who understands doodle coats! Perfect teddy bear cut every time. Worth the wait for her trips to town."
"We switched from a big grooming shop and the difference is night and day. Venus gives our pup her full attention - no rushing, no chaos. He actually enjoys going now!"
"My Yorkie is so tiny and nervous but Venus handled her like a pro. Gentle, patient, and the haircut was adorable. We'll never go anywhere else."
"I was worried about grooming my 13-year-old dog but Venus took her time, kept him comfortable, and he came out looking great. She truly cares about the animals."
"Venus is worth every penny! The fact that she comes to the Lynchburg area and provides one-on-one grooming with no cages is exactly what my dog needed."
"Our Cockapoo always comes back looking and smelling amazing. Venus knows exactly how to cut curly coats without making them look choppy. Five stars all around!"
"Hands down the best groomer in the area. My dog used to shake and cry at other groomers - with Venus he's relaxed and happy. The cage-free setup is a game changer."
"If anyone is looking for a groomer that gives you a very personal experience and gives the time and patience your fur baby deserves, PLEASE message Fancy Pet Grooming Salon! Venus gave Nova her spa day and she was so welcoming and kind from the moment I texted her. I didn't want to take her to an assembly line type groomer because of her anxiety, and the website explained exactly what she does opposed to box groomers. Such a 1:1 experience, and SO affordable compared to other less personalized places. Nova was $58 and she's 15lbs long-haired!"
