Took my 5-month-old pup in for her first professional grooming today, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! The team was incredibly caring, communicative, and really listened to exactly what I wanted for her. The full service only took about an hour, and I picked up the happiest little pup afterward. She seemed so comfortable and well cared for, and the grooming job turned out great. I'm extremely satisfied and will definitely be returning! I love supporting local women-owned businesses! read more

I think Praise the Paw is wonderful! I've had nothing but positive experiences there. But most importantly they take such great care of my dog. I unfortunately moved out of the area but will be returning soon and can't wait to start bring him there again. read more

Paradise was very nice, and my Pomeranian was very clean and soft, but the haircut is pretty choppy all over. i can cut her hair myself but thought I'd pay to have it done professionally, and it looks about how it does when I cut it. Cute facility, friendly staff, but not worth the cost for me. Update: I wasn't going to add pictures, but given the response from the business I'm adding them. My review has nothing to do with the gender of the business owner and this isn't a cut that is fixable. I left a review because this is how I found your business and the service could use improving. That's all. read more

My groomer moved out of town and so I had to find a new groomer. I'm a bit nervous about handing my dogs off. This isn't close to home for me, but well worth the drive! Upon arrival, Jennifer got on the floor with my two little dogs and made them and me feel at ease, and comfortable leaving them with her and her team. They did a great job, and I only had to leave them for two hours. We are all happy with our experience! read more

Paradise & her amazing crew at Praise the Paw Dog Grooming is the only groomer that our Corgi, Hank (Hank the Tank ) has ever been to, because she made me and my fiancé's new puppy (and now almost 3-year-old) Welsh Pembroke Corgi feel so comfortable from his very first visit. Paradise is very knowledgable about dogs and has given me sound advice several times. She is calming and very nurturing with Hank, and he actually looks forward to going to the groomers once a month. Paradise truly cares about all of her dogs and even visited Hank at the Veterinary Emergency Group in July 2022 when he got sick and had to stay overnight. read more

I decided to try this place out because it's so close to my house. I have a senior pup who needs groomed fairly regularly. From the moment we stepped in the door on the first time, it was clear how much Jennifer loves dogs. Not only does she do a great haircut every single time, but I feel very comfortable leaving my lil fur baby with her. I love how much she loves my dog, and it shows in her work. I cannot recommend this place enough!! read more

I love Praise the Paw! My dog had a bad grooming experience at another business in the past so I groomed him at home for years (badly, giving a dog a haircut is hard) I'm so glad I found Praise the Paw because he's never stressed when we leave and always looks adorable with his fresh new cut. read more

a little expensive compared to other groomers we have gone to but they did great with our pup!

I have a very extensive review to give; however, rather than explain my situation and why I am frustrated, my review will be more simple and I will use the owners own words to show their true colors. Before I wrote this review I made sure to see if others had a similar experience in their reviews and the responses I saw from the Praise the Paw owners was astounding. If you are wondering whether you would like to try Praise the Paw, read the low rated reviews and then look at the replies the owner gives back. Praise the Paw really struggles with hearing and receiving feedback. Our relationship started to go sour once I started pointing out areas where they miscut my animal or miscut my animal and didn't tell me they did so (basically, a fissure in trust on my end - if you're not telling me how you messed up my dogs expensive hair cut, what else aren't you telling me?). Here are some of the comments from the owner when their customers give them feedback. Note - these are all taken from the Yelp website and are public; meaning, the owners are completely fine with their replies to customers being public. I have done my best to copy and paste them without changing any of the language. Here are the owners replies to real customers. "I am sorry you feel like you didn't get good customer service. You were 30 minutes late and tried to make me feel bad about it" - Literally, just don't reply. Why would you say something back to this upset customer? "I've been waiting for this review! I'm so glad your wrote it! First off.... WE ALWAYS TAKE THE ETHICAL APPROACH! I realize this may be hard for you to understand being that you see your dog everyday" - The owners are looking for confrontation. They aren't looking to make situations right in the customers eyes; rather, they want to be combative and feel "right". "Thank you so much for your review! You are one of the rudest people I have ever had in my business!" - Even if you believe that, why would a business owner ever say that on a public review website? Needless to say, I'm expecting this review to get a reply from the owner. Just to note, all I did was show how the business responds when there is disagreement between them and a customer. Note - Yelp is a really messy place where people can fume and say things they don't mean. This is why I wanted my review to be a mirror of evidence of what Praise the Paw has done in their own words. They can disagree with any feedback I give because it's my word versus theirs. Although, you cannot disagree with their tone and disrespect towards customers in their replies on yelp. read more

Update: Wow. I cannot believe you edited your response 5+ times. I have never gotten so many emails from a review in my life. I would have simply appreciated an apology instead of being defensive and accusing me of defamation, being uneducated, and a poor dog owner. Accidents happen and I am simply stating what happened to Leo after I tried grooming at your location. It is clear we have different perspectives of the situation, but I am not going to edit my responses to add in portions such as being "uneducated" or "lying." Here is my being direct and honest: 1. I simply felt deceived about who was going to groom my dog. 2. I had to pay for my dog's antibiotics, cone, and vet care after the incident. 3. I never called anyone rude over the phone or in the review. I never would bad-mouth anyone. 4. I cut my dogs hair every month and am educated in understanding that he cannot have "matted" hair that on his private area. I brought him to you in good health. 5. I called you before the follow up appointment and asked to work with you instead of Stephanie. You started asking me why, and I tried to avoid causing trouble for her. I just wanted to work with someone else. Then you started asking for proof of what happened, which is an implication of me lying to you and you trying to justify the "sensitive skin" argument. 6. This was not simple razor burn and the vets at East Evans Animal Hospital assured me of that. We have different perspectives, and this is mine. Accidents happen and unfortunately it happened to Leo. It would have been nice to continue working with you guys. read more

Horrible horrible business owner. Very unprofessional and rude. Expensive prices. Mediocre service. No real pros. If you look at her responses to the other negative comments, you will see how she responds to negative feedback and anything not going her way. Would not bring my dog back here. EDIT: To prove my point, look down at her comment LOL. Who says that to a customer? read more

I cannot say enough about Praise the Paw and its owner, Jennifer. I took my sweet girl to her for over 8years for grooming. As my sweet girl aged- Jennifer spent the extra time needed to make the cut look amazing and make my sweet senior girl comfortable after having a broken pelvis from a car accident. She treats each pup like her own and loves them while in her care. I love that she doesn't use kennels and work with expected drop-off and pick-up times so that others have great experiences for their pups as well. Jennifer thank you for always loving my girls! read more

I am new to Denver and very recently adopted my beautiful boy, Albert. He was in desperate need of having his anal glands expressed(TMI?) and I wanted him to have a proper grooming. I called Jennifer and team and they got me in FIFTEEN minutes later. The entire team is obviously passionate about the care of animals and I felt so good leaving Albert with them. Jennifer is a professional who knows what she's doing and I could not be happier with the entire experience. Albert looks, smells, and feels like a brand new pup. If you are looking for a dog groomer, look no further. ALL the praise to Praise the Paw. We will 100% be back. read more

Jennifer does fantastic work - especially with two scruffy pups who were overdue for a trim. She is friendly and professional, and she brings out the best in our girls. They returned home happy, clean and ready to show off. We highly recommend PTP. read more

My dog has always had issues getting groomed--like most--but, Jen and the team have completely changed that. I could not express more gratitude for the energy they have put forward to get to know my dog and working with him to feel at ease when he is there. I have seen them interacting with other dogs when I drop off/pick up mine and they really do take the time to get to know each individual (pet) customer and it shows. If you are looking for a groomer I couldn't recommend Praise the Paw more. read more

After a long search for a quality groomer for our pup, we settled on Praise the Paw because they could get us in relatively quickly. I'm so happy we found them because it's such a great business and they treat our guy so well. We have no complaints, they are super quick and very affordable for the great level of service they provide! read more

Mediocre grooming for the price. Hours are not accommodating for a work schedule, but very unimpressed with the professionalism of the staff. Recently moved to the area, but have never had such rude responses in a customer service based business. Would not use again due to inflexible service- charged $25 premium for picking my dog up 1:45 after completion- no voicemail left, only text- which I don't text at work. read more

Not all grooming salons are equal, this one is exceptional! I cannot say enough great things about Praise the Paw. If you are looking for a well managed pet salon where the owner and her employees treat you with respect and your dogs with compassion and kindness... this is exactly where you should be. The Owner and Groomer Jennifer Foreman, is one of the most amazing people in the industry. She cares so much for the dogs in her care and builds lifelong relationships with them. Earlier this week she had to say goodbye to one of her groom dogs that she had been grooming since he was a baby. She was so much a part of his life and loved him so much that she left work to be with him and his family to say goodbye. This is the kind of person you want taking care of your dogs...this is the person and this is the place. PRAISE THE PAW! If they have a waitlist, get on it, it's worth the wait. read more

I have been getting my dog groomed by Praise The Paw for over 7 years. EXCELLENT work and I ALWAYS know they take the best care of my dog.

We recently moved to Denver, and have struggled to find a groomer. We had our first appointment for our two boys Leo (corgi) and Milo (Labradoodle), and it was such a GREAT experience!!! Paradise groomed both of our boys, and she did such an amazing job! Due to social distancing, I sent her pictures of what we wanted the boys hair cuts to look like, and she called me to clarify exactly what we wanted. She really cared and was great about listening to our needs!! When I picked the boys up, I barely had to wait, and Jennifer was so welcoming and friendly!!! I could tell she genuinely loved our boys and was a caring dog-lover!! We will definitely be back! read more

Jennifer is by far the most wonderful dog groomer/dog lover I have ever met! When I first read her reviews and tried to make an appointment I was a bit put off by having to wait 4-6 weeks to get our pups into see her. So much so that we found another groomer. After a couple of decent but not amazing experiences elsewhere I decided to give Jennifer a call. So we spoke and I waited about a month before I could meet her in person to get our two Yorkie mixes into her shop for a groom. From the first moment walking into her shop, you feel the love and warmth each person in the shared grooming space has for their craft and the animals they serve. Jennifer is a total sweetheart who absolutely loves each and every dog that walks in the door to see her. It is amazing to see how genuinely she adores each four-legged creature who she meets. We have been in to see her for 4 cuts and baths and each time we just love her a little more. Jennifer is just amazing with how she handles our boys. She showers them with so much love and sweetness the entire time they are with her. Jennifer makes our boys look so adorable and their cuts are just perfect. She is detail oriented and takes her time making them look great. She seems to really care how they look, and takes our feedback and guidance with grace as she helps style out our little pups. Praise the Paw is truly the most perfect name for a grooming shop that handles their animals with such great love and adoration. The dogs are never crated. And neither is the friendly cat or adorable pig who happen to belong to the shop. The animals are kept safe behind the locked doors of the workstations and they employ a double door system when entering the shop to keep all the animals safely inside. When we drop our boys off we leave with the total confidence that they are being loved, cared for, are kept safe, and we will return to them looking adorable and sparkling clean. Call Jennifer to schedule and appointment and if you have to wait a few weeks, just do it. You'll be so glad you did. Praise the Paw and Jennifer have earned my trust, and total Praise!!! read more

This team is second to none! When we rescued our Olive she was sick to death with mange, kennel cough, and didn't look like she's had a bath since the 70's. She trusted no one! After a long bath and some weeks of care, Olive was ready to meet her team of stylists. Although she was scared, as was I, she warmed quickly to the team at this charming, quaint, grooming salon. I know that when we drop her off, she is given the level of care that we strive to provide her daily AND she looks and feels better when they are done doing their magic. Thank you to Jen, Paradise, and Steph for the love and care you provide with your service. Oh and seriously how stinking cute is this little baby after her visit! read more

Jennifer rocks. My dog was stinky and when that happens he looks like Nick Nolte's infamous mug shot and we just can't have that. So I went to my trusted friend Yelp to see what business were in the area and found Praise the Paw and couldn't have been happier with my experience! Located right near Cherry Creek and in a business building that you would think would only have doctors offices and such is where PTP (I just created an acronym for them, awesome) is located. She is by appointment only and we went on Saturday morning so Operation Clean the Pooch could begin. I loved that she sat down with us for a few minutes before I left to get a feel for what kind of cut I was looking for . My little Lincoln is quite skiddish and she held him in her lap and got to know him and gave him a belly rub to earn his trust and what do you know, soon they were besties. Two hour later, she was done and the homeless look was gone--my dog looked quite dapper like a gentleman! If you're looking for groomer, I recommend her added bonus-- she gives you $5 off your first visit! read more

Been taking my pup here for a year now and couldn't be happier. Jennifer is an absolute expert and has helped us to learn how to keep our pup's wild hair healthy for her and manageable for us. Our dog always comes home lookin A+! read more

When Jennifer gets a complaint, instead of dealing with the issue, she defends why she acted and said the things she did. After the initial complaint on yelp, she then acted flippantly and said "OK, Pamela, whatever." She then had a barage of her friends contact me through Charlie's instagram with hate messages. I spoke with a friend who has never taken their dog to the groomer with matts. They wanted their dog to retain the length of hair that they had and the groomer insisted on shaving their dog. Shaving seems to be the fast track to done. People should be able to specify how they want their dog groomed. Charlie had a few knots on her body mostly on either side of her hips, her ears and tail were matted. I made a comment on how I like Charlie's face i.e. not to shave between her eyes and the comment that Jennifer made was "that's how we groom labradoodles." I'm glad I walked out because I read a review where her shop injured a dog and the dog owner had vet bills to prove it. Every busines has problems but what separates the great businesses from mediocre businesses is how they deal with problems. I also read a review that a dog owner got their dog in same day. I was not given that option AND my apt was shoved back. If I go to the doctor, I am allowed to get a second opinion or use homeopathic remedies if I choose. Groomers are not doctors. I reviewed the requirements at https://www.veterinarianedu.org/colorado-dog-groomer/ That website stated that groomers are to accept the dog owners requests. read more

Praise the Paw - before and after using detangler. Her bangs and mouth were never matted so the before and after is mainly to look at her ears. - Pet Groomers Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I have never been treated more rude. Charlie had a few knots I missed, her ears and tail were matted. I was brushing her every 2-3 weeks, not because I was being neglectful, I just did not know. The owner stated "we reserved 3 hrs for you, if you do not let us shave your dog today, NEVER come back!" That is a direct quote. I went home and used detangler and discovered how easy the knots and mats came out. Cowboy magic on Amazon was recommended by a website that breeds cobberdogs. This groomer would be wise to consider Austrailian Cobberdogs are NOT labradoodles and do NOT get groomed like a labradoodle. Their hair is different. See https://www.highlandsaustralianlabradoodles.com/rutland-manor-breed-history/what-is-an-australian-labradoodle/ and also https://www.tegancobberdogs.com/cobberdog-grooming.html I took printed pages from the website to them. The groomer said she had never groomed a cobberdog yet she refused to look at the pages I brought. I informed her that you cut the hair between the eyes in an inverted V. She then said they shave the labradoodles. I had just told her Charlie is NOT a labradoodle. What happened to customer service? Charlie needed a little TLC which she was not going to get at Praise the Paw. Grooming your own dog seems a bit daunting however I read the website I posted and purchased the grooming tools to do it myself. I guess that is the only way I can get Charlie groomed like a cobberdog. read more

If you have a senior dog DO NOT BRING YOUR DOG HERE! Upon making my appointment I explained to the owner that my dog was 14 years old, has hip issues, and is partially blind...never at any point did the owner explain to me that they could not service my dog or "do what they were comfortable with". When we arrived for our appointment with Paradise, she began to tell me that she would only do what she was comfortable with. What did that mean I wondered... Did she think my dog was going to attack her? Was she not experienced handling senior dogs? Why wasn't I told this beforehand? Cut to-30min later I get a frantic voicemail from a front desk person who repeatedly says "She's having a hard time". Not, "Hey, we were only able to do this, that, and the other and your dog is ready to be picked up", just pure panic, no explanation. I called back and Paradise is on the phone and clearly overwhelmed. She says "I don't know what's wrong with her head. It keeps falling down"- I'm sorry, huh??? "I took her outside to catch her breath"- ummm....ok????-"She's having a hard time" "She had to sit in the tub" -Again, no real explanation for the panic, which left me confused and concerned for my dog. When I arrived, Paradise was no where to be found and my sweet sweet dog is laying in the corner of their floor shop wet, calm, and cool as a cucumber...as an old pup can be. Soooo in that moment, I knew Paradise didn't have the experience to take care of my dog and chose to revert to chaos when my 14year pup needed to sit down in the tub while she was bathing her. When Paradise finally arrived, she began to tell me everything that she thought was wrong with my dog, because apparently the owner used to be a Vet and they think they know best. But, instead of telling me what she was able to complete, I explained to her that I know my dog well, I'm aware of her health issues, and I asked her to tell me what she accomplished. She said a wash, partial dry, and a nail trim, then proceeded to ask me for $55. When I gave her the look of "you've got to be kidding me" she turned to the owner and yells out "She doesn't want to pay for it" Which I interjected and said "Nooooo, I just don't think I should be charged full price since you did not complete the service and my dog is completely wet and you guys called me in a complete panic. Then they became defensive, not understanding. So, to get myself and my dog the hell out of their crazy establishment, I paid. And as I paid I let them know just how I felt, because at the end of the day just because my dog is old and not as spry as the rest of them doesn't mean she doesn't deserve to be well taken care of during a grooming appointment. Just because she has difficulty standing for a period of time and can't move around like they may have wanted her to, does not mean she's dying! And just because your owner may have been a Vet at one point, does not give you the right to make medical claims on my pet. No senior dog owner, should be left feeling like their dog is a burden or a risk at a grooming facility. My 14year old dog has health issues, has an amazing vet, takes meds, and gets checked frequently. We do everything that we can to give her the most amazing and comfortable life, but taking her to Praise the Paw was unnecessary stress that my dog did not deserve to go through. Bottom line: This is not a place to take your senior dog who needs the patience and calm thorough care of an EXPERIENCED groomer. read more
