Absolutely loved this groomer, and so did my babygirl Coco!!! First off, they do not crate your dog…read morewhile they wait, which is fantastic. I got a video update on how she was doing, which was reassuring. Her groomer Lyndsey took great care of her and was very patient and understanding, being that Coco is only 6 months old. She gave her a great groom. The shampoo they used smells amazing! Coco is still fluffy and smelling good (and it rained yesterday too!!) So take your fur baby here, and their paws are in great hands

Took my pit bull mix here for an all day daycare while I was at work. It was her first actual day…read more(aside from the temperament test which I was told she did fine) and was told that my dog was being an instigator with another small dog, which I understand because she can play rough, and that she had her ears pinned back (as a pit bull she always has her ears relaxed which is pinned back, giving them that seal look which can be seen as an example in the photos) and that she was "not a good fit for them." I asked why they had small dogs with the bigger dogs and was told "the small dogs are too rambunctious to be with the other small dogs." I was told that staff had to break up my dog and the small dog and she was put into a kennel for the rest of the day but the dogs had never gotten physical. I pick my dog up and she has scratches and bite marks on her tummy and no one had called and told me. I called them and they said that they had no idea but that my dog was still welcome to come back. Never coming back here again.

Absolutely recommend TDW to care for your loved ones like their own.

Because of my telework schedule, I've been home when she comes to get my girl for her walk. My pup starts looking at the door and whining about 30 minutes before her arrival and goes crazy when she sees her buddy. I am so grateful I have someone trustworthy and fur baby approved for my girl. Amy is amazing! I adopted a 18 lb rescue Terrier Mix and was not prepared for keeping her home during the work days for two weeks while her vaccines kicked in. Amy jumped in to help. She is flexible to assist with last minute schedule changes. Being military, I appreciated Amy's military family background because she understands my unique challenges and also can get on base with no problem. She even brought a harness when my little escape artist needed it. I trust her completely and am bummed she won't be going with us when we move in January. My puppy loves her, too, and can't wait for Miss Amy to visit!

Called to make an appointment for my 1 year old mini Aussie mix who needs a trim. The family that…read morehad him before us abused him and he's very skittish(huddles from loud noises, terrified of certain shoes, etc.), so we asked if we could stay like we used to with our other dog we took there years ago and they said no, and then she recommended that we get some trazodone from the vet if he's skittish if we want to bring him in. I left a very hateful review before this, and I decided to clean it up with this one instead. I will just let dog lovers make up their own mind about this business with this information. ADD ON EDIT--I was reading other reviews after I posted this and I would like to let people know that the NEIGHBORS of this company left a review saying that they can HEAR them SCREAMING at the dogs through the wall to SHUT UP and stop barking. WTF?!That was two years ago, I don't know if things have changed with that, I don't live next-door, but please avoid this place! (Added photo of the review I'm referring to.)

After dropping her off, we checked out the in house supply store, separate entrance from inside the groomer's office. The supply store was well stocked with everything you could want for your pet. We were called with an update about some things, Maisie needed an ear cleaning and a notice of an old scratch on one of her legs. Over all, with bathing, drying, ear cleaning, clipping of her nails, and trimmed her fur around her paw pads, it was very reasonable!! Maisie will be back for sure!!

So I have taken my dog here for a little over a week now and they seem to be, like my rating says,…read moreA-OK. There isn't anything terribly bad about this business nor is there anything outstanding. They have a small little business located on 21st Street right before you turn onto Hampton Blvd. You may easily drive right past it unless you notice the multicolor drawings on the outside of their building. They offer half day (5 hrs or less) or full day (5 hrs or more) of care. You can buy "bulk" orders which will help you save some money. They aren't terribly expensive relative to the other places around here and the people there are very nice. My dog seems to enjoy the play style there as he is always dragging me towards the door which I presume to be a good indication of the "fun" he gets there. However, I have to mention that on several occasions, my pup came back with bite marks on his face, clumps of missing hair and a bleeding ear. They helped me clean off the ear when I picked him up and there didn't seem to be any lasting damage to the dog. I don't have a whole lot of experience with doggie daycare so I can't really do a comparison. They will feed your dog if you provide the food and instructions at no extra cost and you can make reservations by calling or emailing them. You do have to bring your dog in for an assessment. This means they are trying to see if your dog is aggressive and plays well with others. It takes about an hour and basically they just put your dog in with the others to see how they play. They also have a tiny room in front for smaller dogs/puppies. No, they do not board dogs.

The people were pleasant enough, and I came back to use their self-serve bath services, but I had an incident where the owner was making an error with my change, and I had to mention it to him three times before he corrected it, as if he thought I would forget he over charged me. There was something hucksterish in his demeanor. It just left a bad taste in my mouth. Admittedly I have not used their boarding services, but the devil is in the details. I won't go back.
