My 11 year old husky Joker gets groomed here on a regular basis. He absolutely loves it and he loves Sarah as well! I highly recommend their grooming services!

This place has a bad habit and it needs to end.
They always ask us to tip the hairstylist before I even see my dog, what happens if I don’t like? Will you give me my money back?
Honestly talking the last year the quality has dropped considerably!
Imagine you go to a restaurant and the waitress ask you to tip her before you taste your food, will you do it?
