She takes the time to get to know each pup, communicates well with pet parents, and creates a safe, fun environment where dogs can thrive. It's clear she's passionate about what she does, and that level of care really sets her business apart. If you're looking for a place where your dog will be treated like family, I can't recommend Kalamazoo Barks & Recreation enough!

Also found the cost to be very reasonable (we paid more at our previous groomers out-of-state so were pleasantly surprised). I had a few requests for the groom and she did them PERFECTLY.

I've used Heather as a trainer for all of my troublemakers over the years. She was able to get 2…read moreof my dog-aggressive dogs into dog groups off leash, which I never thought was possible. I've had them both in her agility classes following their training and they both had a lot of fun. The best part is that in her class if your dog acts up, everyone treats it like a learning experience and is totally respectful instead of making you feel like you've got the bad dog. I've tried other trainers in the past, and most of them are good at basic obedience, but I've never had anyone who is ACTUALLY able to correct and improve behavioral issues, and in fact, some of them have made them worse. Heather has always been completely honest in her assessments of my dogs and will honestly tell me if she thinks there is a limit to what she can do, unlike other trainers who will tell you they can fix every behavior. She is also very honest about the work I will need to put in to make sure they continue to behave after she's worked with them. I don't trust anyone else to care for my dogs when I have to board them. I know they will get attention, exercise, and be safely cared for while they are at BFA.

She was friendly, on time and reasonable.

Kalamazoo has not had a mobile groomer in nearly 15 years, so when my Dad mentioned Jessica and…read moreParamount Grooming to me I was super excited. As a non-driver I like to have as many mobile services as possible on our roster because it just makes our life simpler. After I called and made an appointment for Blue and explained that I was allergic to nearly everything on the planet Earth, Jessica was kind enough to work with us and offer to use our shampoo to bathe Blue. I also explained that Blue suffers from arthritis and we worked out a plan for Blue-Bird to not need to stand during her entire haircut and bath. Blue has been groomed before and I always felt a tad apprehensive dropping her off at the other groomer, but I have to say, even though I knew she was just in front of the house, I felt at ease with Jessica. After her bath and trim Blue looked amazing! The best part, Blue, a normally shy and timid senior dog who does not warm up around strangers, was so happy. It was obvious that even though Blue had just had a bath, which is not her favorite activity, she was treated sweetly because Blue was in a good mood. For practical purposes, I had been brushing and trimming Blue for the past four or five years, but she needed a professional to clean her up a bit. Blue received a mini groom and because she was sensitive around the ears and my allergies precluded the ear cleaning, her ears were just wiped out. Her nails were trimmed and the hair around her feet were trimmed. The dryer and brush got out a lot of her undercoat. She looks fantastic and her coat feels so much better.

The last two times we've came, we've asked the staff to check him for matting because we understand that if he does, he needs to be shaved.
