My usual groomer had to get surgery for arm...rotator cuff or something, so I asked the cyber…read moreuniverse to recommend a place for me and a ton of people raved about this place. Of course I had to give them a try! First I brought in my long-haired chihuahua and told them to shave him down. He looked great! He did have a bad rash on his butt from caked-on mud and poo. He healed quickly tho. Then I brought in my standard yorkie and asked for him to be shaved down. (It's hot in the summer!) They did and I forgot how skinny he looked underneath all that hair! It's $50 because I asked for a bath, nails, and a cut. Totally worth it. They even put an adorable bandanna on your pup when they're done. I love that I can drop off my dog(s) super early in the morning. (Like, 6:45am) It helps with my schedule. It's a cute little place tucked back on a dirt road and tons of trees. I think I'll just stay with these guys! They do an awesome job.

I love that I could come pick up my dogs for a play day at the lake, then drop them for sleeping while our lodging would not allow dogs. They took notes on feeding and medication schedules, they provided a daily email "report card" for their behavior, any important aspects of health and whatnot, and pictures. The staff was overly friendly- from what I can tell my dogs had a good time! I fully reccomend.
