About this pro
We offer premium bathing and grooming service at a non premium price. For bathing you can do walk in self service or call for an appointment for full service bathing. We also offer full grooming services by appointment.
When doing self service work we are here to help you not just watch you. Our goal is for you and your pet to have a positive experience.
Helping a first time customer learn how to clean their dog is very rewarding. Winning dogs over that are afraid of something like nail trimming is our specialty. Dogs know when to be nervous and scared by how we act. We offer a calm and relaxed approach. If your dog is dog aggressive we are willing to meet you before we are open when there is much less activity. Find us on Facebook!
