    I've been going to Mindi for years and find she is just the best I've ever found. She has a calming way about her and the dogs know that. She is always kind and gentle with the pups especially those that are afraid. I have a new golden/labradoodle who was nervous and she was great with him. You can't go wrong with Mindi!!

    Mindi does such a great job with my Cairn Terrier/Mini Poodle mix! I've probably taken my dog in 5-6 times now, and her haircut always looks consistent (Mindi got it right the first time and now when I come in it's just "the usual") and it takes about an hour. Mindi is usually booked a week or two out, so I do have to plan ahead and make my appointment at the first sign of shagginess. Well worth the quality grooming. **updating this review because of how terrible Mindi's communication has become. She never answers the phone, her voicemail box is full, and I'd text her multiple times asking about her next availability, only for her eventual response to be vague, like "I'm booked through April." Okay... not helpful. Seems uninterested in booking an appointment. She seriously does a good job at grooming but I'm moving on because of the communication issue. Hopefully she can work out an online scheduling system or hire another employee or something to help ease the congestion.

    Parking was crazy to find, but that's my fault cause I don't really know the area..once I was able to get myself where I needed to be..I walked in and was greeted immediately by Mindi and the other doggies she assured me my Princess would be ok, went over what she was going to do and there went my Princess (my anti social..don't like people mommy dog) into Mindi's arms..i am so happy, so pleased and so excited that I set up another appt for my Sassy girl

    She was great with Lola so we took Rico for his first grooming. She said he did great and he didn't seem stressed. We love Mindi for our babies.

    Mindi does a great job grooming my two Havanese pups. Their cuts tend to last a lot longer than my previous groomer. My dogs seem happy to see her and I love that she's not overbooked. They are the only dogs there when they are getting groomed so it is not the hectic environment of typical groomers. I'm so happy we found her and they look perfect and smell wonderful when I pick them up!

    Mindi is great with our little pup. She does incredible work at a very fair price. Making an appointment is very worth while.

    Not sure if this place is still open. Voicemail and text messages have gone unanswered. Can anyone verify?

    Yes she is still there. She is a one person operation so is a bit overloaded. She is getting about 50 calls and/or texts a day. I would recommend you stop by and see her. She is trying to get a second person in there because she can only do so much.… Read more

    I can't believe I haven't written a review yet! Most loving dog owners know how hard it is to find…read morea grooming salon you can truly trust. I found K9 Grooming through Yelp and I'm so glad I did. We drive 30 minutes to get here and I won't lie, the salon is pricey. It usually costs me around $300 with trip for a standard Aussie and mini Aussie regular groom. But it is absolutely worth it. My dogs are my babies. We have a 6-year-old Aussie we've had since he was a puppy, and we recently added our rescue mini Aussie who is now 8. Our rescue has extreme anxiety from her past trauma, including living in a hoarding situation. The team here treats both of our dogs like family. I've never once worried about the way they're cared for. The salon is spotless. Anytime I walk into a grooming place that smells like urine or feces or is chaotic with constant barking, it's an instant red flag for me. K9 Grooming is completely different. It's clean, calm, and you can even watch your dogs being groomed so there's no mystery about how they're treated. Recently our neighbor warned us about fleas in the area, so I called K9 as a concerned pet mom. They were so helpful. They told me they'd start with a regular bath and, if they found any fleas, they'd do the treatment and call us so we could prep the house. Sure enough, they found a few a went forward with the flea bath. They provided me with helpful information and next steps. I sincerely appreciate the level of care, transparency, and customer service the staff provide. I could never take my dogs anywhere else after coming here.

Australian shepherds have very thick double coats, she requires grooming at least every six weeks. From the front desk, all the way back to the groomers they're always so professional, and Mila is always so extremely eager and happy to go there; that says so much. I've had my fair share of very bad grooming experiences, with this very dog. K9 Design Grooming Salon has changed my perspective and Mila's perspective on grooming experiences. We used to live extremely close to the Salon, but we recently bought a house in Olympia and still make the drive! We love K9 Design Grooming!!

    I feel this establishment does not even deserve 1 star. Here's the reason why…read more... We took our 7-month-old Dachshund puppy, Chewy, to Soggy Doggy yesterday evening for a nail trim shortly before closing time, and unfortunately, the experience was very upsetting for both our puppy and us. During the nail trim, Chewy yelped multiple times in discomfort, which immediately concerned us. What stood out most to me was that the same nail appeared to be trimmed repeatedly several times, and each time Chewy reacted more anxiously and vocally. As a pet owner, I found it difficult to watch, and it left me feeling uncomfortable about the handling process. I understand that puppies can sometimes be nervous during grooming, and nail trims are not always easy. However, we have previously taken Chewy to other grooming establishments, including Petco and PetSmart, for nail trims and have never experienced this level of distress from him before. I was also surprised that during the nail trim, we were asked questions about Chewy's diet and food choices. While I understand businesses may offer additional services or products, I personally felt that the focus at that moment should have remained on carefully completing the nail trim and ensuring our puppy was comfortable and calm. At the end of the appointment, Chewy also left with a noticeable hangnail. We declined the nail buffing add-on service, but even so, I did not expect his nails to be left in that condition after the trim. Overall, this experience left us questioning the level of handling, training, and attention to pet comfort during grooming services. As pet owners, we trust groomers and staff with the safety and well-being of our animals, and unfortunately, this visit did not leave us feeling confident. Because of this experience, we will not be returning with Chewy in the future. I hope this feedback is taken constructively, as gentle handling, professionalism, and pet comfort are extremely important, especially with young puppies who are still learning to trust grooming experiences.

I was told she was offered a great deal for the rental and some homemade dog treats. Parking was a bit confusing as the parking nearby the business was full and there was a spot that we think was free to use but not sure. As we entered, we were greeted by a staff member who let us in and the space is huge! There were plenty of toys, a dog pool, and little obstacles for dogs to enjoy to their hearts' content! They even have a hose to fill up the pool or just have your dogs chase around. There were little cubbies and lots of areas to hang leashes, coats, and other stuff on. They had Youtube videos playing too. The dog treats were so creative. They had cannoli, biscuits, and much more. All of our dogs seemed to have enjoy the treats greatly, no treats were left behind. All of the dogs seemed to be enjoying themselves as they just had so much to do or other dogs to play with. Definitely look forward to coming back here to throw future dog parties as our group loves to do little events for our fur babies.

    This place is super cute decor with friendly and kind staff, but what makes me nervous is how tiny…read moreit is with how many dogs they allow. It made me wonder about the ratio balance between humans vs dogs. I had dropped my dog off for a behavioral assessment, as we have trips coming up and I'm looking for boarding care. This is not where I'm personally comfortable leaving my pup, as the ratio seemed to be 1 human to 15 or 20 dogs in an indoor-only, less than 1500sq foot space. The good news is they are so kind and nice humans, if I was rating them they'd earn 5+++ stars as I'd leave my dog in their care anytime! The problem I had was the physical space (super tiny!) and the ratio of dogs, as they allowed 3 or 4 pups to greet my dog while 15 or so were in a hallway-type space patiently waiting and sooooo well-behaved, to greet and play. The space for playing is very limited, about 1/2 the size of a classroom, and while it's clean and the staff are super lovely, it's probably not the best fit for our pup who loves to play fetch and run. Parking is also super tricky in this neighborhood, as there isn't a parking lot or spaces reserved for the business.
