I normally don't write reviews for a business. However, when a business goes out of their way to…read moremake the experience special, I am willing to let others know about this business. We are snowbirds in St Augustine for 3 months from Wisconsin. We had heard that Happy Paws Pet Grooming and Rita were absolute the Best Groomer in St Augustine. I agree that Rita is the Best Groomer in St Augustine. We have a mini schnauzer. Maddie is her name. She is almost 11 years old and needs a grooming every 5 to 6 weeks. Not only was this grooming the best cut Maddie ever had, but the grooming experience was also the best. From the reviews it was known that Happy Paws Pet Grooming was very busy, and we may not be able to make an appointment. Well, Rita went out of her way to get Maddie in for a grooming, Take the chance and try to make an appointment, it is worth it. Several other reviews here thought this was their mini schnauzer best cut. I would agree with them. Upon arriving, the first thing Rita and her assistant did was to kneel down to Maddie's level and gave her some loving. Most times taking Maddie to a new groomer will cause Maddie to show her fear by shivering. This did not happen with Rita, Rita put Maddie on a bed, not in a dog crate, while we check in. Maddie was ready to pick up is 2 hours. When we came back to pick up Maddie, she was on the bed, not in crate. Thanks Rita, for making this a pleasant experience for Maddie and us. I can remember having another groomer in St Augustine taking over 6 hours to groom Maddie. We were expecting a call after 3 hours. The call never came. We finally went to the groomer's business only to find a shivering Maddie just getting her grooming started. This means that Maddie was in a crate for hours before her grooming. Thanks again Rita for Maddie's best mini schnauzer cut and making Maddie feel welcome and comfortable when we arrived. You put Maddie at ease and you also put us at ease.

Called and asked if I could get my pup in yesterday, but did not want him caged waiting for a groom…read morefor a long time. The receptionist/owner(?) said that if that were the case, I would have to come today at noon. I said fine and arrived on time. Flag #1 Receptionist/owner(?) was very unfriendly, didn't smile, gave no welcome, and was very difficult to understand (accent). The reception area overwhelmed me with aromatherapy, and it took an hour to leave my clothes/hair. Flag #2 - I brought in vaccination paperwork that any reputable groomer would ask for, and she only took a cursory look and said she did not 'keep paperwork.' Flag#3 - Contrary to what was agreed to yesterday, she said if I wanted express service for my pup, I would have to come back at 2 p.m. I agreed. Flag#4 - I arrived on time. They had obviously been busy. A quick peek in the back looked like an explosion of dog hair with a cute little dog still trussed up waiting for someone to complete its groom. My dog is a barker, and she made it clear she didn't like it. She asked a few times if he had ever bitten anyone, and I told her no, but I think he would if hurt. She brought him to the back, and shortly after, I heard my pup give 2 yelps like he was hurt. She came back out and said she thought he was going to bite and wanted to use a muzzle (never needed one before), and maybe if I went back, I could calm him. An older man was standing with him, and the pup was obviously in distress. Told them it was just not working out and left.

He needed a groom badly…read more He hasn't had one professionally done before and any time I would try and groom him myself he'd get upset and overwhelmed so I was worried that he would be scared and not behave for her while she grooms him, but in shock he did wonderful!! He was a little scared and nippy at first which is understandable but with her fear-free grooming techniques, he quickly calmed down and enjoyed his pampered grooming experience. I'm extremely satisfied and happy with his transformation and how she worked through his anxiety with him to show him that grooming is a good thing and it doesn't have to be scary! I'm grateful she was the one to fix my doggy up, I wouldn't want anyone else to groom my baby but her thank you!!
