Cecilia’s Temple of Groom

I had no idea where to start when it came to finding a groomer, but a friend referred Cecilia and I’ve been going to her since. I couldn’t be happier; she is so great with my dog and he looks fantastic every time. Love Temple of Groom!

Pawline and Bowser love Cecelia! They are always excited to see her and she’s very patient with them (even when Pawline is naughty). They come home looking adorable every time too!

We wanted to post a review for Cecelia’s salon. By far she is the best groomer we’ve had for our Daisy. She is a Zuchon (Shit Tzu/​Bichon). We went through so many groomers and we got lucky to get our Daisy into her Salon.
By far she is the best groomer. If you can ever get into her Salon, you are very lucky. She has a very long waiting list. We are only sad that we had to move. Otherwise, we would keep our groomer forever. Thank you Cecelia!

Took one of our 2 show-​coated Pekingese into see Cecilia on recommendation of two different friends. Oliver’s coat was so long he has been tripping all over himself, and I don’t feel confident enough trimming him up. I also hesitate to take either dog to a groomer that doesn’t know what they are doing as both can knot up easily just getting a bath. Cecilia did a fantastic job in what I consider a short amount of time (less than 90 minutes) for an excellent price! I certainly have all the confidence in the world in taking him back again when necessary and would absolutely recommend her service.

Still loving Cecilia! She does such an amazing job and my dogs are actually happy getting their spa on with her.
I feel super lucky to have gotten in as a client of hers before she got too busy to accept new clients. I personally appreciate her NOT over booking herself and taking time and care with my furry babies.
I will continue to be her loyal client and I will still refer my friends because I believe she is expanding! Very exciting!!!
Thank you Cecilia for being the best and loving my dogs as much as I do!

AMAZING pet pampers can be found at Cecilia’s. These ladies were SERIOUSLY born to do this. If everyone could be as competent as these ladies the world would be a better (& more beautiful! place). My dog loves them, the turn-​around time is speedy and my pooch and I walk away happy every time!

Don’t bother they are so amazing, that they can put you on the wait list and get you in next year.

I have been taking our golden retriever to Cecilia since she was a puppy. I was a little apprehensive at first because most of her clients are the type of dog that need a structured cut (poodles, etc). However, I had no reason to worry. She did a wonderful job with Dolly and really brought out the best in her. Cleaned up those fuzzy golden feet and made her tail and ears look like a showdog! I love Cecilia’s manner with the dogs and it is clear that she cares about what she is doing. I highly recommend Cecilia’s Temple of Groom.

We Love Cecila’s Temple of Groom!!! She’s the only one who can clip my dog’s nails!

Cecila is wonderful!
She handled my labradoodle puppy’s first grooming perfectly. He came back to me squeaky-​clean and handsome without any weird poodle Afro or anything.
Even better? Barkley had such a good time with her that whenever we walk by her place (she’s like two blocks from our house) he makes a valiant attempt to go visit her, so I KNOW he had a great time with her too.

I just brought my two dachshunds to Cecelia for the first time. The reviews are right on. She has a very calm presence with the dogs. She is one of the only groomers who has been able to cut my male dog’s claws. I knew it was a good sign when I had to make an appointment more than a week out — I can see why Cecelia has a waiting list. I will never take them anywhere else.

Our Toby (Bichon) looks so adorable after his second grooming session with Cecilia. Plus, he seems to be getting used to the grooming experience by the end of the appointment he looked as though he was enjoying the experience:).

I recently took my two dogs here for the first time.
They had a bath, nail trim, ears & glands done. Cecilia is super sweet and totally cool! Her pricing is great. I highly recommend her.

Cecilia is amazing!!! I read about her shop here on Unilocal and seeing that she has rave reviews about Lhasa’s and Shih Tzu’s I brought my own Shih Tzu pup to see her. She is incredibly reasonable in price and has years of experience with grooming dogs. Her space allows her to groom one dog at a time so that she can give each pup the attention she/​he deserves and keep them calm, cool, and collected as they are being trimmed and clipped and whatever else the needs maybe.
I have been to many groomers because of the high maintenance needs of my pup’s breed and it can get $$$ and overwhelming. After meeting Cecilia, talking with her and hearing how much she loves what she does, and takes the time with each pup, I am a forever fan. Absolutely worth the drive and time! AND to boot, just so you know, she specializes in dogs with special needs and knows how to treat them right, with calm and love. If you have patience like that, I will absolutely trust my pup in your hands.
You dont get to meet many like Cecilia. Cool, down to earth, and 100% loving what she does. This is a doggie spa, minus the unecessary and overwhelming fluff and poof and pink. Your dog will leave looking incredible, and acting like they just had a restorative yoga class!

Cecilia is the best dog groomer in Seattle. I just happened to come across her at Lucky Dog and when she moved to her own place we of course went with her. She cuts Albus, a lhasa-​poo, in a short amount of time and he always comes out looking great. Her priority is the health and well being of your dog-​not aesthetics, which is definitely what we want from our dog groomer.

Harry the lhasa apso (that’s King Harry to you) had his first visit today with the fabulous Cecilia and the glowing reviews are all true! She knows her stuff and is very gentle and kind with the fuzzy ones. She asked good questions and really listened, and was sensitive to the dog’s cues. Harry was a bit nervous being dropped off (always shy with new people) but he was all smiles when we picked him up with his new summer haircut. Make your appointment now!!!

Cecilia is the first groomer my 7 year Newfoundland/​Chow mix has ever seen and will be the only as long as I can help it!
She was able to schedule us quickly and her shop is pretty easy to find. (And I’m not familiar with West Seattle). My dog loved her as soon as they met and she made us both feel very comfortable. She set reasonable expectations and was really great about the fact that I don’t have him regularly groomed. She listened to my rambling explanations about him and all the little things I thought she should know.
In less than 2 hours, he was bathed, cut (undercoat removed), ears cleaned, claws trimmed and sleeping on her floor. He looks fantastic, and more importantly, he was completely calm and happy. Her knowledge and awesome demeanor make her the only groomer for us!

Cecilia is a superstar. We only had the chance to go to her once back in 2008 before she moved to a different place, but we had remembered her ever since as the best groom we ever had. Lucky for us our other groomer stopped grooming and we discovered Cecilia has just set up shop in West Seattle!
We have had many mediocre experiences with groomers and a few genuinely traumatic ones. We find Cecilia to be one-​of-​a-​kind in the area. She is compassionate, funny, and incredibly skilled. She will give your dogs the swankiest damn haircut they’ve ever had… quickly and at a fair price.
Couldn’t recommend her more highly!

We first met Cecilia when she was cutting at the Wash Dog here in W Seattle. Our dog Sienna had been groomed by a few of the groomers at the Wash dog and we were never really impressed until one day Cecilia put her magical hands on Sienna! We slacked on the grooming from month to month and one day she was gone! We were so sad! I went googling her and found nothing until I just started googling dog washes/​groomers and BAM… she was at the Lucky Dog. We took Sienna a few times but due to my inconsistent schedule it was difficult. BUT NOW… since she’s back in W Seattle… I will be sure to only bring her here! Cecilia has always been so awesome w/​Sienna! Congrats on the opening and we will for sure call you tomorrow to book an appointment! Hope we can get in before the end of the month (May! Your always so busy!) ^_^

When Cecilia first met my Shih Tzu/​Poodle mix, her first words were, «Your dog’s ultimate level of cuteness will not be met until I have groomed him.» She speaks the truth! Any other place I’ve had him groomed at has not had the speed, efficiency, or the raw talent that Cecilia possesses. (She also does really radical doggy mohawks) Her attention to detail has also helped me with the health of my dog. The first time he was groomed she pointed out an ear infection that I had no clue he had! It is definitely not an exaggeration when I say that Cecilia is the BEST groomer in Seattle. I dare anyone else to prove otherwise.
Cecilia is also really awesome at working with people that either just got a «groomable» dog, or don’t really have any particular criteria. You can trust her 100% to make your dog look amazing, cause she doesn’t give stupid haircuts – only stylish and functional ones! Taking your dog to Cecilia’s Temple of Groom will make them love you at LEAST 94% more than they already do.
