When you walk in there's a small entrance that separates you from the grooming area. It seems really secure for the dogs inside. They have a book showing the different levels that they can cut which is really helpful! I had a nice chat with the groomer and told her everything we wanted. She followed my instructions and my dog looked adorable! It's a bit pricier than what I've been paying in Vienna, but we will be back for sure.

However she didn't need it and was able to roam with the other dogs at the spa. Special shout out to Vee (Vi?)! She was super attentive and took the time to understand our preferences and make sure we were on the same page about the style we wanted. When we got home, our dog was her usual playful self (at other places, she'd come home stressed and subdued). It's clear they treated her with patience and care. The results were exactly what we hoped for! We've made this our regular salon.

After the terrible groom my partner was told to come back for a they would fix it for free. She scheduled the appointment pointing out that she wanted the complimentary service (see photo) and when I picked her up they told me it was roughly $125. I told them I had a free service and they saw that in the system but that's not what they did. I overheard the lady behind the counter whisper that we were willing to pay the difference even though it is their fault . At that point I was unwilling to pay but my partner was at work and had already paid the entire amount online so that I did not have to have any issues. They reached out to the owner and we were assured that she would reach out to us and fix it. My partner reached out to Jodi (the owner) and she did not respond. This was in February and it is now May. I waited to post this in hope that I wouldn't have to because they would make it right. I understand that the groomer needs to be paid because the work was completed but their mistake shouldn't have been my problem. Oh I forgot to mention how we came about the complimentary service. The original cut was HORRENDOUS (see photo) my partner wrote a review about it and they offered us a complimentary bath and tidy to take it down. She agreed and removed the review(shady). All I want is my partner's money back. This review did not need to be posted but I hate that fact that we were taken advantage of by this business.

The place gets busy on weekends - expect to wait up to 30 minutes. Prices are super reasonable and they have a loyalty program which adds up to a free wash. The place gets humid and smelly during the summer. (I don't think the air conditioning and circulation work well.) You get what you pay for in terms of cleanliness. The staff is friendly and always willing to help. Parking can be challenging. You might need to park up the hill where the townhomes are and walk down.

I booked the first appointment explaining I had a blind dog that didn't do well left alone in a kennel. I told them I would wait outside so as soon as they were ready I would be there. No need for a kennel, right? So all is good. The DAY BEFORE the appointment, I text to confirm pricing. He calls me immediately and rudely explains how he was coming in on a holiday and that i said no to a Saturday, which did not happen. He then told me I should take my dog to Petco if I had special requests and he cannot be put in a kennel. Because he's blind. So now he gets to take the 4th of July off work. I hope you enjoy your day off

Danielle is friendly and reliable and most of all - she does a great job. We always go with a short cut on our Maltese for ease of maintenance and Danielle's cuts are very consistent. Our dog always looks the same, which is a big positive in my book. Other groomers have delivered inconsistent looks when we simply wanted the same haircut. The convenience of the mobile service is hard to beat too. It's a little more expensive than service at a brick and mortar building, but it's worth it in my opinion. You won't regret going with this business for your furry friend's grooming needs. Highly recommended. ***In the post-grooming photo of my pup, he'd had a recent vet procedure that resulted in a stitch in his forehead and a partially shaved right leg. Danielle was careful and attentive***

Most groomers do multiple dogs at once--and your dog sits in a cage in the meantime. Not great. Maria is working with just one dog --yours--from start to finish--so it's way less stress for your baby. I should also mention that Maria is the best, kindest, most competent dog groomer in the DMV. Full stop. If you have a small dog, don't even *think* about going anywhere else! Not only will your furbaby be gorgeously groomed, you will have the peace of mind of knowing he is being cared for by 1) someone who genuinely loves dogs, and 2) is also incredibly talented and experienced. I don't trust my little guy with anyone but Maria.
