I took my dog in for a haircut, expecting a proper trim to help reduce shedding, but it looks like…read morenothing was done. The hair is still long and thick, completely different from the picture I provided, and the cuts are very uneven and noticeable. To make things worse, they didn't shower or blow-dry my dog after the haircut, leaving loose fur everywhere. My car was covered in hair, and I had to bathe my dog again as soon as I got home. When I called to express my concerns, they simply told me they don't cut dog hair very short and that they only bathe dogs before the haircut. This was never communicated upfront, and the service didn't meet my expectations at all. I wanted a proper haircut to reduce shedding in my home, but instead, I got a messy, unfinished job.

She also has 20 years of grooming experience and charges about 20% cheaper than competitors in the area. I've taken my dogs there before and will again!

Thank you Jessica for your amazing work and very competitive pricing!!!

This business deserves far better than 2 stars. I have been a client for 6 years. Maureen does a…read moregreat job with my Bergamasco Ruffo. His is not an easy coat to manage by any stretch of the imagination. Other groomers were intimidated or uninterested in figuring out how to manage his triple coat, but Maureen researched it and learned how to groom him thoughtfully, without leaving him naked and stressed. He always looks fabulously handsome (my bias) when done. Regarding the 7 hours mentioned in a previous review: this is a one woman shop. I can imagine the day getting long if there was another dog (mine?) on the day's schedule needing more time and attention to detail. Maureen does excellent work; perhaps she values that over timing. In any case, she's a careful, knowledgeable, hard working groomer. I hate to see her disparaged as "crazy", though that sort of insult is really only a statement about the person leaving the review. I recommend the Groom Room and Maureen without reservation - it's a 5 star spot for high quality dog grooming!

I never figured out what happened, but I trusted her cues and started looking elsewhere. I found Just Paws by chance, and I'm so glad I did. The prices initially caught my attention (best I've seen), but what really stood out was Jessica's approach. She keeps things small and calm--only a few dogs at a time, minimal kenneling, and a clear focus on each dog's comfort. You can tell she genuinely cares. The biggest proof? My dog LOVES going. I'll say "let's go see Jessica," and she runs to the car. She's always happy when I pick her up, and after two years, we won't go anywhere else. Even my neighbor now brings both of her dogs here. I have a 70lb goldendoodle who doesn't always arrive clean--sand, chalk, even gum--and Jessica handles it all without complaint. I've also brought her in matted before and have only ever been met with kindness, never judgment. My dog hates nail trims, and Jessica always honors my request and lets me come in to help comfort her, which has made a huge difference. If you're looking for a high-fashion, show-style groom, this may not be your place--but honestly, I wouldn't know because we go for function over fashion. If you want someone who treats your dog with genuine care and respect, Just Paws is it.
