Wouldn’t go anywhere else! We love it here!!

On 4/18/2025 Stephanie D had this to say:
The Owners have handled my Pyrenees and Flat Coated Retriever with care. The wash and blow out, as well as nail trims have always left both dogs looking great. My pups have never been injured, handled roughly, or mistreated. My dogs are big and not very cooperative in the grooming process, yet they have handled them very well. Their prices are very reasonable for having to groom large, long haired pups.

On 5/16/2024 Shawntel Randall had this to say:
They were amazing with our pups, even after we had some potty mishaps due to excitement and boy were they excited! The shop is super nice and the staff was very helpful. It was affordable and our dogs looked amazing and even topped with a bow, not to mention the time it took was fast and efficient! They are definitely our permanent groomers from now on! Best they have ever looked!
