Made my appointment. Brandon was exactly on time. So very good with my dogs. You can feel the kindness coming from him. My dogs look incredible and they really liked Brandon.

recently had the pleasure of having Juliet from Happy Spa Dogs mobile dog grooming take care of my puppy, Maple, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! Juliet went above and beyond to make sure Maple felt comfortable and safe throughout the entire grooming session. Maple can be a little wiggly and nervous, but Juliet showed incredible patience and gentleness, giving extra care and attention to make her feel secure. She took the time to talk to Maple, comfort her, and ensure every part of the grooming process was stress-free. By the end of the session, Maple not only looked fantastic but was wagging her tail happily! The convenience of the mobile service combined with Juliet's professionalism and genuine love for animals makes Happy Spa Dogs my go-to choice. I highly recommend Juliet to anyone looking for a groomer who truly treats your pup like family!

Annie gets her home service grooming from Brandon every 8 weeks. Annie always gets scared with other groomers but with Brandon she feels safe. Her haircut looks super good everytime. She also looks forward to getting her new bandana. See you again soon.

Our groomer, Josie, came early and was very professional and friendly. She was so friendly with our dog and understood the cut we wanted. She was also timely with the grooming service which we appreciated. We had a great experience with Josie and Happy Spa Dogs!

Very happy with service! Kevin is our groomer and our dog loves him and she is very picky. The cut is always perfect and service is exceptional, highly recommend!

How can someone abuse animals? Please do not have this company groom your pet. (Day after grooming)

Please be very careful about who you trust with your pets. We have used this company before and, until now, had no major concerns. Typically, groomers keep all doors closed during the grooming process. This time, a new groomer named Kaila arrived. While my son was taking out the trash, he noticed that a door near the driver's seat of the grooming van was open. He looked inside to check on our dog and witnessed the groomer handling our small dog very roughly. He came inside extremely upset and crying. When I went outside, I personally observed our dog being handled in a manner that appeared aggressive and abusive. I knocked on the van door and requested our dog back immediately, as we no longer felt comfortable allowing the grooming to continue. The groomer responded with hostility, used explicit profanity in front of my young child, told us to "take your f***ing dog," and slammed the van door. Our dog was returned visibly distressed and shaking. Afterward, we could hear the groomer outside our home yelling on the phone, using extremely inappropriate language, including personal insults and profanity. I contacted management and requested follow-up. The following morning, I was told that this groomer had never received a complaint. The concern is that pet owners typically cannot see how their animals are handled inside a grooming van. In our prior experiences with this company, all doors were kept closed, which prevented any visibility. We have two dogs under four pounds. A refund of $250 was offered, but this is not about money -- it is about the safety and well-being of animals. I am sharing this experience solely to warn other pet owners. No animal should ever be handled this way. We will be filing a formal complaint with the appropriate licensing and regulatory agencies in hopes of preventing harm to other dogs.

Our little Peanut has a lot of anxiety. Lord knows we needed someone we could trust. These guys were them! Peanut smells great and was super duper "wiggly butt" when she was done. That's the best sign. And they gave her a cute little bandana :) Thank you for taking care of our little Peanut

This is the second time we've used Happy Spa dogs for our Cavapoo puppy. Brianna did a puppy cut for us and our girl looked so cute! Brandon did her first full haircut / grooming and he did an amazing job. He listened to what I wanted and was so easy to talk to. Both of my dogs naturally gravitated towards him when he came to the door. He was very loving and my puppy did great with him! Scheduling is so easy through phone or text. Responsive and punctual. We've had a great experience with Happy Spa Dogs and they make it so easy with their mobile grooming.

Patrick was great connecting with my doggies. He did an excellent job grooming them and cutting their overdue very long nails.

I appreciate how well you took care of my dog. You did a great job bathing our dog and even clipped her toenails with such care. Thank you, Bri.

I found her because I wanted a local groomer close by. I called her and left a voicemail asking if she needed certain proof of vaccinations, she got back to me as soon as possible. She was available within the next day and I took Kayo in at 9am :) I filled out some paperwork for him, met Paris, and dropped him off. She does this amazing technique where she meets the dog for the first time and takes time to bond with them. I've never seen this experience before, but it was very helpful because my little guy is shy and anxious. He was scared at first but she took the leash & tried to hold him. She was extremely patient with him and took time to pet him, which surprised me immensely because he's not that friendly to strangers. She took about an hour & a half and called me when he was ready. She was very flexible with payment options since I had my Mother-in-law pick him up while I was running errands. She accepted payment virtually by Zelle, which made it less stressful & painless since I wasn't there physically to pay. She's very trustworthy and sweet. I called and asked how Kayo did and she said he did great! He usually gets nervous when getting his nails trimmed but he liked her a lot. She has good energy and even my dog can feel it. Thank you so much for taking care of Kayo, Paris!

My nervous, anxiety-prone dog (who is on Prozac and usually trembles just getting in the car) just got sprayed in the face by a skunk. We'd only just been to this groomer one week ago for her first visit ever -- which, by the way, was a miracle in itself. My dog left that appointment happy, calm, and even ran back to say goodbye to the groomer instead of bolting to me with her tail tucked like she usually does. That told me everything I needed to know. So back to this morning. Total disaster. I texted the groomer at 6 AM on a Saturday, hoping for a miracle. She responded before 7:30 and got us in as her first appointment of the day. When we pulled up, even though my dog was still stressed from the skunk incident, the moment she realized where we were, her tail started wagging and she walked right in like she was seeing an old friend. Less than two hours later, my sweet girl was back to me smelling fresh and clean, tail still wagging. As a fellow small business owner, I know what it means to go above and beyond. Answering early morning texts, squeezing in an emergency, making someone else's bad day a little easier -- and this groomer truly does it all. And the biggest win? My dog feels safe here. That's priceless. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. From your flower shop skunk girl and her baby Sierra.

On my most recent visit, however, our bill had increased by about 35%, including a $20 "infrequent grooming" fee. I understand businesses need to raise prices, but this fee caught me off guard because we bathe and brush our dog between appointments. When I dropped my dog off, I jokingly said, "Everything the same as last time... except the infrequent grooming fee." I intended it as lighthearted feedback, not a confrontation. Instead, the owner immediately responded by telling me I was welcome to go somewhere else. The conversation quickly became heated. I'll own my part in that. I wasn't perfect either. But what disappointed me most wasn't the fee itself; it was how quickly a simple comment was met with defensiveness rather than a conversation. As a repeat customer, I hoped my feedback would at least be heard. Ironically, I think there's an easy solution. Instead of adding an "infrequent grooming" surcharge, why not simply offer a loyalty discount to customers who come in more often? The end result is similar, but it feels like rewarding customers instead of penalizing them. To be fair, they do decent quality grooming, and I have no complaints about the care my dog received. Unfortunately, after this interaction, I was asked to take my business elsewhere. We've since found another groomer we're very happy with. I genuinely wish them well. My only advice is that customer feedback, even when you disagree with it, is worth listening to. UPDATE: Thank you for your response. If you were looking to come across as confrontational, argumentative, and defensive, well, then you nailed it.

I discovered this mom and pop shop and their grooming…read morebusiness when I asked about groomers in the area in a Facebook group- Top Dog came highly recommeded! When you step inside, you are surrounded by all kinds of healthy natural treats, a wide array of dog food choices, and cute apparel for your pups! What really blew me away was how responsive Rob the groomer was. He met with me, discussed grooming options, and was transparent about pricing, which was super fair. When it came time to bring in my girls, he did an incredible job washing them, cutting their nails, brushing their teeth, and giving my labradoodle the exact cut I had wanted for her. I was impressed by Rob's friendliness and expertise. Jazzed by his amazing work, I set up a second grooming appointment. I knew I had to do it in advance, because Rob can get pretty booked up! About a week before bringing my pups in, my labradoodle had terrible diarrhea and made a mess of herself (and my place). I reached out to Rob, and he told me was totally inundated with appointments, but would fit her in just to bathe her. Later that day, I dropped off my very dirty and soiled labradoodle. When I came to pick her up, she was a vision! She was sparkly white and looked like she had a Brazilian blowout! The amount of compassion and level of attention he still managed to give her on a very crazy day brought tears to my eyes. Today was both my pups' appointment day. I got to meet the owner Andrew, and he is super engaging and passionate about his space. I was again completely dazzled by how clean and well cared for my dogs were. I am grateful to Andrew, Rob, and this place of business for being so fantastic! It is no wonder Top Dog was suggested repeatedly to me, and now I highly recommend them, too!
