We have officially moved as of April 1st, 2024. We are getting lots of calls of clients going to our old address. We are at 8720 SW Hwy 200 Unit 11.... We are not next to the Publix anymore. The address is in the confirmation email and text message that is sent out for your appointments. Please use GPS if you are unable to locate the new location.
Why our reviews are bad on Yelp? I'll explain...
I wanted to share my experience and frustration with Yelp and shed some light on how it operates, particularly in terms of its impact on business owners and workers.
​
Yelp has become a dominant platform for consumers to find and review businesses, but what many people don’t realize is the pressure it puts on business owners to pay for its services. Yelp’s advertising model is controversial, to say the least. If business owners don’t fork over money for ads, Yelp allegedly hides positive reviews and showcases negative ones, essentially holding business reputations hostage. We actually have 50+ positive 5 star reviews that Yelp refuses to post since we don't advertise with them. It is over $400 a month just to advertise then they will post all the good reviews that they are holding hostage.
​
This practice is incredibly unfair and detrimental to both business owners and workers. Firstly, it’s extortionate to force businesses to pay just to have a fair chance at showcasing positive reviews.
​
Secondly, it undermines the hard work and dedication of workers who rely on these businesses for their livelihoods.
​
Yelp’s tactics essentially leach off business owners, coercing them into paying for their services under the threat of tarnishing their reputation. It’s a lose-lose situation for everyone involved except Yelp itself.
​
I believe it’s crucial to raise awareness about these unethical practices and consider alternative platforms that prioritize fairness and transparency. What are your thoughts or experiences with Yelp? Let’s discuss.
​
Stay informed and support businesses that deserve recognition without being held hostage by platforms like Yelp.p.

Our Shop Policies
Effective February 1st, 2020
CANCELLATION POLICY: The staff at Posh Paws would greatly appreciate any cancellations be made at least 24 hours before your scheduled appointment time. We understand that things happen at the last minute that may prevent you from making it to your appointment. Please call us to re-schedule or cancel any appointment. Appointments canceled less than 24 hours before the scheduled time may incur a cancellation fee of $25.00.
NOTE: Due to the high demand for appointments during the holidays, all appointments scheduled November – December will require a credit card to reserve the appointment and must be cancelled no less that 48 hours to prevent a $25 late cancellation fee.
DEMATTING FEES
There will be an extra charge of $15.00 added onto any animal that has excess matting. Excess dematting causes us to get backed up on appointments after yours and it's not fair for other clients having to wait longer than expected.
NO SHOW APPOINTMENT FEES
There will also be a fee of $25.00 added onto your next appointment if you are a NO SHOW APPOINTMENT. Making an appointment reserves that space for your dog. When you do not show up for that appointment, we lose revenue for another dog that could have taken that same spot. We ask that you give us at least 24 hours for an appointment change or cancellation. We will forgive the first no show but after that, we have to charge for the reserved time. (We may excuse it if we feel there is a true emergency but that is at our discretion.) This is a policy that must be enforced. This is also on the release form that you signed when you came in at your first appointment.
ARRIVALS: In order to ensure that your pet benefits the best from his/her grooming experience we ask that you arrive 15 minutes prior to your spa appointment to allow time for a meeting with your groomer to discuss any specific details with your groomer.
LATE ARRIVALS: Please call us if you know that you are going to be late for your appointment. We will do everything we can to still be able to give you the service you have booked, however if you are more than 20 minutes late we may not be able to complete your service and still be on time for our next Pet. If so we will need to reschedule your appointment and it will be considered a late-cancel and subject to cancellation fees.
​
LATE PICKUPS: If we have tried to contact you to pick up your pet and we wind up having to keep our shop open because you forgot to pick up your pet. YOU WILL BE ASSESSED A $25.00 LATE PICK UP FEE PER 1/2 HOUR WE HAVE TO REMAIN OPEN FOR YOU NO EXCEPTIONS!!!!! We apologize for this but it is becoming a consistent problem and it's not fair to have to keep staff here after hours.
​
​INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY: The staff at Posh Paws will do our best to give all clients at least a two hour notice if their appointment needs to be rescheduled due to inclement weather. Our normal 24 hour cancellation policy does not apply where there is inclement weather. We will respect anyone who requests to reschedule their appointment even if we have decided to open for that day. Please check our website or Facebook page for closing or delayed opening updates.
​PAYMENT: At Posh Paws we accept cash, check, American Express, Visa, MasterCard and Discover. We also take Apple Pay and Google Pay. For checks there is a $35.00 return check fee. Payment is expected at time of service. Gratuity is always appreciated. There are NO REFUNDS given!
​
We reserve the right to contact your veterinarian if we are accused of any wrong doing after a grooming session. This is to protect our business from those who try to get us to pay for vet bills that have nothing to do with the actual groom.
​GIFT CERTIFICATES: Gift Certificates cannot be redeemed for cash and are non-refundable. The value of a gift certificate will not be replaced if lost, stolen, destroyed, altered or used without your permission. Gift certificates must be presented at time of service.
​
ONLINE INTERNET BASHING: Any internet bashing of this business online or elsewhere will not be tolerated! If this occurs, the client will be immediately banned from our shop and from any other future business at Posh Paws Grooming. If there is a problem, our salon manager, Lizmari will handle any and all complaints.
​
Cat GroomingPolicy
Effective 9/20/23 - All new cat appointments will require an assessment of the cat first before we are able to book an appointment. This is for our safety and the safety of the cat. Please call first before booking online.
​
We are a different grooming facility than most. We have adapted over the years our way of getting cats groomed. Here is our Cat Grooming Policy:
​
-
We do not groom cats in the morning! Our shop is full of barking dogs, and this can stress cats out even if your cat is used to being around dogs. We typically groom cats around 1 or 2 in the afternoon.
-
We hand blow dry all our animals. Our facility does not use cage dryers obviously for safety reasons. If your cat can tolerate a blow dryer, we will try our best to get them dry. If not, they will be towel dried.
-
We do not bathe cats and perform haircuts on cats all on the same day. This causes way too much stress on the cat. Cats cannot tolerate baths, blow drying and haircuts all in one day like a dog would. If you choose to have a bath and a haircut, then we will have to book separate appointments.
-
We have these set of standards for safety reasons and we will not deviate from them. If you have any questions please give us a call.
