Scottie’s Highland Tails

We’ve been with Stacey since Wilson’s very first haircut a couple years ago and she’s been fantastic! Wilson loves getting groomed and the reason for that is Stacey and her caring staff. If you want an excellent groomer who loves your pup, this is the place for you.

I’ve been with Stacey for many years. You don’t keep going back to the same place if it is not up to your standards. Stacey is good with my dogs and they come back looking like they belong in the show ring. I have the highest respect for Stacey and Scottie’s Highland Tails.

Here is the deal, we have gone to Stacey for about 3 or so years now. She was incredible. Cheaper then the rest, experienced, so friendly, loving to our pups and convenient to get to… The past three times trying to make an appointment here have been an incredible NIGHTMARE and WASTE OF TIME. All three had the exact same succession of events… we scheduled, she confirmed a week ahead of time, we show up 10 minutes early and wait for 45 minutes. She didn’t answer her phone, doors locked tight and that was that.
It has been a joke really and makes me so mad because our first couple years were wonderful. Never again. There will not be another call from us. Good luck with your business and the ethics of treating your clients.

NOTE: Stacey loves to groom dogs, and has rallied behind her business and decided NOT to close! She is still performing her wonderful grooming services, and is honoring all scheduled appointments. Please spread the word!

Love this place! Haven’t been to the new location but have walked past it a few times. It looks very nice! She does a wonderful job with the dogs. I have a 6 lb yorkie who is sweet but anxious and nips at me everytime I try to cut him! Stacy said he was great and well behaved. Must make appointment!

We took our dogs to Stacy at Scottie’s Highland Tails for two years without problems. We had what we thought was a good rapport with her. We referred many people to her. After accepting our generous cash gift at holiday time this year [without so much as a thank you], she called in January and cancelled our next appointment. She refused to book a future appointment, saying she was «too busy.»

Stacy does such a great job with my Winston! She’s always great to accommodate my schedule and is reasonably priced. He even pulls me to go there if we are in the area.

Stacey is totally AWESOME!!! We’ve been going to her for a little over five years now and couldn’t be any happier. I have a Sealyham Terrier who is very high strung, very demanding and is a total attention seeker. Stacey can accommodate all of his needs. Granted, Stacey has moved around due to some unforeseen circumstances (But who doesn’t). Wherever she goes we’ll be right there. No one else in the business can get my Bleekster sparkling squeaky white and as straight as a Brazilian keratin straightener… Stacey’s the best and we love her dearly…

I’ve been taking my Golden to Stacy for years. After trying several other groomers, I found Stacy because she was in the neighborhood. I could not be happier — or my dog either! Stacy provides as stress-​free an atmosphere as possible (my dog hates being groomed so any groomer is a stressful place), but when I come to pick her up, she doesn’t bolt out the door as she has with other groomers. Stacy is more affordable than other groomers I have been to as well.

My Loveable Westie Madison just had her first grooming with Stacey today and I couldn’t be happier. Stacey is AWESOME! That simple! At 14 yrs Madison has had a haircut or two in her lifetime, so we are very familiar with the standard traditional Westie cut. Yes, there’s variations but when you want the classic look there shouldn’t be compromise. I switched to Stacey because I wasn’t happy with my previous groomer’s cuts (albeit they were very nice, friendly and fast), but at the end of the day, you’re paying for a service and it wasn’t being met. Every grooming with my previous groomer was just so, so, always missing the mark and some of the details which are part of the Westie cut. Stacey asked if I wanted the standard Westie cut…“Yep” I said, «short back, skirt, round face. That was it. 2hrs later… Madison looked as good as new! SOOOOOOOOO glad I found Stacey!

Really great people that truly care about the dogs. I’d recommend them to anyone looking for a groomer.

I completely agree with the review below by Hannah. Stacey is an amazing groomer, and I couldn’t be happier that she is back to it. While she was not grooming, I had to take my pup to another groomer to hold her over until Stacey found a new location. I was NOT pleased with this substitute groomer, and he also came highly recommended.
Stacey is the absolute best at what she does, and I will continue to bring my Emma wherever she is, and continue referring her to any of my friends in the area with pets. Not only is she sweet and genuinely loves animals, but she is a professional and the absolute best. All the information on this website is now correct (updated telephone number and address) and I recommend anyone looking for a groomer to look no further, as Stacey is the real deal.

Stacey is awesome. Such a hard worker and very accommodating. She has recently moved to 4151 N. Broadway. She is building out the new space and is hoping to open soon. The number listed is her new phone number and she is returning calls.

Stacey is the BEST!!! I have been taking my Westie here for over 5 years. Consistently the best «westie» «terrier» cut ever. Reasonably priced. Be sure to book in advance, as it can take up to 2 weeks to schedule an appointment.

First of all, to the person who updated their review with a 2 star rating because of the recent activity with Stacey, I think that’s kind of rude and unnecessary. The current situation does not reflect on Stacey’s business or ability and I think everyone knows that.
I spoke with Stacey two weeks ago and she had to leave her current location very suddenly due to issues with the landlord. Her voicemail reflected this and provided a contact number to reach her at (773.719.7306). I assume now that the location has turned off that phone, which is out of her control.
Last we spoke, she had already submitted an application for a new location just a few blocks away from her old location and she is hoping to get back up and running ASAP. You can contact her at the number above if you are looking to get back on the schedule.
We absolutely adore Stacey and are hoping that this all gets resolved quickly so we can all get our pooches back in and looking beautiful with her!

We found Stacey 4 years ago when we move to the city and could not be happier!
Our Westies may not always like going, but they look great when I pick them up.
Best groomer that I’ve found yet!

I must say that I found Stacey by accident. I have been taking my Scottie elsewhere for two years and when they couldn’t get me in I found Scottie’s Highland Tails. She took an evening appointment and was so helpful when I was running late. I thought she did a GREAT job. My only tip would be that the entrance is at the back of the building off of the ally and there is a small parking lot!

Stacey deserves all the 5-​stars on this page. She’s a wonderful groomer with very good heart. My dog is terrified of most groomers, to the point where I even bought my own supplies. The «creative» cut that resulted led me to continue my search for a groomer (well, that, and my boyfriend hid the scissors). I was a nervous mother when I dropped my dog off with Stacey, but that dissipated when I arrived for pickup — Stacey did a beautiful grooming job, but more importantly my dog was HAPPY. This is one on one service, folks. Stacey gives 100% to each dog she works on and it shows — both in the grooming job and the happy puppy faces.

When I dropped my dog off at Scottie’s Highland Tails my first thought was «I’m free!», which was followed by «I hope she’ll be ok», then followed by «I miss her.» My transformation into a doggie mom is complete.
When my dog was rescued from the puppy mill, they had no choice but to give her a buzz cut and got rid of almost all of her hair. Five months later, she was starting to look like a mini-​Chewbacca. Her hair was getting long enough to where she needed some type of style, so I took her for her first grooming ever.
Stacey, groomer extraordinaire, is very sweet and extremely good with dogs. My shy little beastie didn’t have any problems warming up to Stacey and I felt very confident leaving my pooch in her care for a few hours.
My dog looks cuter than ever and Stacey even told me that my dog was not a Yorkie, as the rescue had suspected, but probably a Norwich Terrier. After we left, my little doll decided to strut around the neighborhood showing off her new ‘do.

I really like working with Stacy on keeping Kukla cute. I like to keep her fur pretty short and I don’t really like the traditional Yorkie cut and Stacey does exactly what i ask every time. Kukla is a bit of a momma’s puppy and is always upset when I leave, but she is happy and content when I return.
I like that I can walk over to Scottie’s too. It’s always a hassle to drive anywhere with the pup so finding a place close enough to walk to that does a great job is well worth the $ 45 she charges for a Kukla trim.
