In fact, Gentle Care Grooming just signed another 5 year lease so they are "here to stay". Vanessa (the owner) and her husband run a 2 man show. I have taken both of my dogs (shitzaus) there for the past 13 years and I can say without a doubt that they do a wonderful job. I always feel my dogs have been well taken care of and loved while they are away at the "beauty shop". Their building is in a little bit of a run down strip mall but don't let that influence you from using them. Their hours can get a little tricky as they are only open from 7:30am to 3pm (or whenever the last dog gets picked up) Tuesday - Saturday. This is NOT a doggy day care so be expected to pick up your pet close to the time he/she will be finished. Have you cash or check book handy as do not take any credit cards. I would highly recommend this groomer to anyone in need of one!

It's been awhile since I have taken my dogs to this groomer, but I'm so happy with our current…read moregroomer and after talking with her, we both agreed that I should leave a review so that other potential clients can be aware of the experience I had. I have two Westies and brought them to this location maybe 2-3 times before making the decision to look elsewhere and change groomers. Finding a groomer was hard as I started looking during the start of the COVID pandemic. When I arrived to pick up my dogs, without notice, they added an extra charge of $30-40/per dog, due to them being "difficult". I asked them what that meant, and asked them if they were biting at them, and they said no. One of the groomers did have some scratches on her arms, but didn't go into details on what happened. This place accepts anywhere from 6-8 dogs at a time, and my only guess was that maybe the combined noises from the blow driers was too much for my two dogs. Their haircuts were fine, but overpriced for the end product. I am completely happy with the current groomer we go to in WSP - Wiggles & Wags. It is a smaller location, and that could have been just what I needed for my two dogs. Leah and Alex clearly have had a lot of experience. I was concerned dropping them off after the experience at Haute Dog, but when I picked them up, they told me that "they were great - no problems". I couldn't believe my ears. I shared my experience at Haute Dog, and they said that is not the experience they had. My concern for Haute Dog is the well-being of dogs that may have special needs. My suggestion is that they get some employees who can think on the spot and find new ways to make dogs feel safe as every dog is different and has different fears or anxieties. When I picked up my dogs from Haute Dog, they could not wait to get out of that space and were shaking. Because of COVID it was another barrier that left me with many questions why my dogs were in the state that they were.

She not Only shaved entire dog down to his skin she literally shaved his skin there isn't even a 1/10000000 inch of fur left on him . he looks Like a hairless dog . And she cut him at Least 6 places big cuts, didn't bother mentioning the cuts when picked him up. He has been wheezing non stop since appointment. He used to love groomer but he is seriously traumatized by this visit he's shaking hiding under bed and not the same dog. It also took much less time then normal and was clear she just cared about getting off work for day. I hope he's back to normal soon.

My little dogs don't have to be stuffed in a kennel while they're waiting/after they're groomed, they get to run around. Secondly, my dogs are ECSTATIC to be there! The minute we walk in the house they're wagging and smiling and bouncing around. My boy dog is a little anxious and doesn't like his feet touched, which is challenging for a groomer, but Lisa manages him with grace and empathy. She and Eric also do boarding and doggy daycare in their home. They're fantastic people that have a lot of love for all dogs, big and small.

Pros: Online Booking Mobile van comes right to the house and usually parks on the street Personalized service Services my area Confirmation texts Cons: A bit pricey and there are extra add on prices if the groomer deems a necessary charge. No bios of the groomers Both groomers that came out were okay. The second groomer did a pretty good job cutting our pups hair, but I think she nicked my little guy on his stomach. There are three different packages to choose from. It's convenient, at times pricey and not exactly stress free. I would give it a try once if you prefer to have a mobile groomer come out.

I've taken my pup to quite a few doggy daycares/boarding and Camp Bow Wow EP is our favorite!…read more First day of daycare is FREE, so why not try it?! They have cameras in every room so you can always see what your pup is up to. They start with a slow introduction with dogs, slowly increasing the number in a room to ensure your dog is okay and not overwhelmed. They have a website for easy online booking or an app as well! I love the app as I waste away my afternoons watching the cameras to see her play! Staff has always been so great and my dog LOVES it here!! When you board, you can specify when and how much your dog eats. You can add on services such as one on one interaction time, snuggle, grooming, nail trim, etc! On your first day, you get a welcome packet and photos of their first day! Minnie and me love it here!

Total transparency: I haven't gotten any of their "dog salon" services... yet…read more A doggy daycare seemed like very extravagant extra spending to me until I got a very hyperactive puppy and our Minnesota winter happened. During the summer, spring, and fall she is a-okay because she's walked every single day - but when the walks are shorten because it's 10° we all know what happens. Cue: doggie daycare consideration. They seemed a little understaffed, but hey that's the new normal with COVID. What I can tell you is they average about three dollars an hour with me to take care of my puppy... the same price I'd pay a neighbor kid to walk them - but I get 8-10 HOURS of puppy free time. ... AND puppy is usually completely spent for 10-15 hours after I get her back. She knows exactly what / where Camp BW is and loses her stuff every time we pull up. So - for me five stars. Will update if I get wonky salon services. But for the most part the staff is courteous enough - the hours are right - and it seems to be priced okay. For now I will keep recommending (and budgeting for) CBW for my sanity in our cold MN winter months.
