After first grooming when she was still growing her hair out. Great job done!
Katrina D.

I'm a bit torn. Cute salon with easy parking near lotte plaza. Great prices and attentive staff. First time got a perfect haircut and styling. Second time over the weekend I was pretty clear with why I was wanting for the cut. Leave the length in her leg warmers and trim the rest of the body down. Shape the tail. Well I got her back with almost no leg warmers and butt cheeks... a bit upset because I got her groomed for wedding photos. It was a different groomer this more recent time from the first. Groomer justification was "just removing the damage...". But that's not what I asked. Especially if it meant the leg warmers being completely chopped.

Big lump on top of my dog's head was cut open and bleeding during the grooming process.

I am writing this to warn other pet owners. I brought my 15lb miniature poodle, Mocha, here for a routine groom. He left with a bleeding head wound and a business that refused to take an ounce of accountability. Mocha has a known, stable cyst on his head that was not bleeding or open at drop-off. Roughly 45 minutes into the appointment, I received an unusual call suggesting a "summer cut"--a clear attempt to cover up or justify the trauma that occurred to the area during their service. The lack of professional integrity here is staggering: * Non-Disclosure: They failed to clearly disclose the injury at pickup, downplaying a wound that began bleeding again that same evening. * Conflicting Stories: When confronted, their story changed multiple times--ranging from "minor irritation" to "pre-existing" to blaming the dog for scratching it. * Medical Necessity: A vet evaluation confirmed the injury occurred during the grooming timeframe. * Zero Accountability: Despite the vet documentation, the owner flatly refused to refund the service or reimburse the medical costs incurred to fix their mistake. A professional groomer's first priority is safety and their second is honesty. Paws and Spa Grooming failed at both. If you value your pet's safety and expect transparency when accidents happen, go elsewhere. I will be pursuing this further through a formal dispute and consumer protection.

1st time coming here after a very bad experience from our previous groomer and so glad we found them! I have a senior American Eskimo who gets very anxious and they took care of him like a pro! Thank to Leah and the team. The front desk lady also answered all my questions politely and luckily they had a cancellation and got us in the same day! Wohoo!

Leah was amazing and treated my dog with so much love and respect. Her and her team really enjoy what they do and will go above and beyond to make sure your beloved pet is happily serviced! The price for the cut was well priced. The salon is immaculate and clean.

I just moved to this area and I was trying to find a new groomer for my baby. When I called up here they picked up promptly and had availability for the time that I needed!! Then when I head up there, the lady was super sweet we had a great conversation. She gave great advice for the cut and I showed them pictures and they did exactly what I asked!!! She was all done in about an hour. I love to how professional they were being and how beautiful the cut was. I asked for her cut to s a little bit longer and not be cut too short, and she definitely understood the assignment!!! Thanks again!! I'll be coming back!!

Riley freshly groomed

Excellent groomer. I needed a groomer asap for my little guy! Paw and Spa grooming answered the phone right away. They were able to accommodate us in the same day without a problem. From the initial phone call and throughout the grooming appointment they were very kind, attentive, and informative. I'm very satisfied with the services. Riley enjoys being groomed and is looking forward to his next visit! Thank you!

This was our first visit and we are so pleased. First impressions are everything, and once we met the team we knew we had made the right choice. Everyone there genuinely cares, plus they are knowledgeable and kind!! We dropped off a bit of a stinky pup, and we picked up a handsome, soft and happy gentleman.

Awesome groom!
Elaine S.

Great communication with Leah. She got this nervous guy in and out very quickly and he looks fantastic. She listened to me carefully and was completely honest. I appreciated it!

We have been looking for a new dog groomer and we just found the perfect place for our two bernedoodles. Koda and Oris felt right at home here. They did such a great job with our boys. One of them has major anxiety but the groomer was so pleasant you would've never known. The grooming was great! The dogs smell great and the cut was exactly what we asked for. They paid real attention to detail and we will definitely be back! Thank you!

He had such a good time he is ready for a nap!
Janel P.

Leah did an amazing job! She is so kind and patient! Max was a little nervous and snappy. But by the time I picked him up, he didn't want to go home. It was Max's first appointment and he now has a new groomer! The place is clean and you can tell they love what they do.

Leah and her brother have also fostered over 60 rescue dogs!

Leah has been grooming our dogs for years and we are thrilled that she moved from her old salon, Canine Classics, in Lorton, to this new, entrepreneurial upstart. Sure, its a little bit farther to drive but its worth it. Leah has a huge following locally, especially in the local social media groups. She is a true dog whisperer and has a heart, especially, for dogs that may be freaked out about going to a salon. Go in and talk to her... your dog will love you for it.

A boy who is not a fan of having his nails trimmed.

I took my dog, Rufus, here today for the first time, and I'm very pleased with the result. Rufus is ordinarily a little apprehensive about going to the groomer, but when I dropped him off he didn't even look back or notice I was leaving. When I picked him up, he was clean and shiny, and his nails had been trimmed--I love that the basic package includes a nail trim with no extra charge. Paws & Spa is much more affordable than Petco, where we had been going. We'll definitely be back! Thank you, Leah!

I was very happy with my baby's haircut and bath. She's 15 and her fur was looking messy. I had asked other groomers but their job did not compare to this place. Since we got there, we were welcomed with a big smile by the owner. She immediately put her attention on saying hi to my baby. I felt right away she was in good hands. When I picked her up, O-M-G! She looked half her age! Lol she looked like a puppy again. Thank you so, so, so, much! Also, the price are reasonable! We will be back!

See all

This place is new , clean and organized. It has everything…read moreyour dog may need. I highly suggest it for your dog's needs

Disappointing Experience - Poor Communication and Lack of Transparency…read more We have been taking our dog, Remi, to The Dog Stop in Centreville since Labor Day, and initially, we were happy to have found a place where he could socialize, interact with other dogs, and get some exercise. Unfortunately, our experience ended on a very disappointing note. An incident occurred during pickup when an individual walked up behind and startled Remi, causing him to bark and briefly snap. While we understand that any behavior involving a dog snapping must be taken seriously, what has been even more disappointing is how the situation was handled. We reached out to corporate to appeal the decision to permanently ban Remi from attending, hoping for a fair review of the circumstances and an opportunity to discuss possible conditions for reinstatement. However, we were informed that the decision would stand because there had apparently been one or two previous incidents involving aggressive behavior. Here's where our frustration really lies: We were NEVER informed of these alleged prior incidents. As pet owners, we cannot address behaviors we are unaware of. If there were concerns about Remi's interactions or behavior while in their care, we should have been notified immediately. That would have allowed us to have a conversation with the staff, work with Remi, and determine what steps were necessary to ensure everyone's safety. Instead, these incidents were apparently documented or remembered by the facility but never communicated to us. We were essentially blindsided when they were brought up as justification for the final decision. What makes this experience particularly frustrating is that we trusted this facility to care for our dog and provide a safe, supervised environment. Communication between a daycare and pet owners is essential, especially when behavioral concerns arise. We understand that daycare facilities have policies and must prioritize the safety of their staff, customers, and other dogs. However, responsible communication and transparency should be part of that responsibility as well. Unfortunately, what started as a positive experience ended with a great deal of disappointment. I hope management takes this feedback seriously because pet owners deserve timely communication, transparency, and the opportunity to address concerns before situations escalate to this point.

Highly recommend this place they really know how to groom dogs…read more i have been struggling to find a place and have had really bad experiences I live in Centreville Virginia and I have tried all the grooming services including vans that go to houses And really bad service This place " how cute your dog Grooming " is top of the line and super reasonable prices

I stumbled upon this place after visiting family. Normally we take our dog to Pet Supplies Plus…read morebecause we enjoy washing our dog ourselves. But since our dog had a butt mishap (aka we tried to trim his butt at home) we thought he needed some professional help. We called this place and got an appointment the next day. If you are new they require rabies documentation for your first visit. During the phone call, they just ask general questions on your dog's name, weight, your info, and times you can come in. In addition, they are very upfront with their fees. We told them our dog weight/breed so the receptionist gave us a range so we knew what to expect. I believe they give a range because until they see the dog, they won't know what extra things might need to be done. The day of the visit, we felt very welcomed and seeing all the dogs in the back and in the front waiting area gave our mind ease. Our dog is quite shy and a scaredy cat (except at the dog park, go figure lol). Upon checking in, one of the groomers came out saw his butt and knew he needed to be saved from a haircut got wrong. Although shy, as soon as we let him behind the gate with the groomer, he was quite willing to follow them...but very slow. They gave him a little butt trim and a very good wash that including nail trimming which took roughly 3-4 hours. When picked up he smelled so good, looked extremely happy and calm, and had the cutest bandana on him. The price we paid was less than what we were quoted on which was awesome. But this is probably because he didn't need much of a cut. We definitely plan to use this place in the future as all staff was very kind, all the dogs we saw in the establishment (including ours) were quite calm/happy/excited. The price is reasonable and I like that you can get quoted where they give you a range from the cheapest it could be to the most expensive.
