    Incorrect prices on website

    I should have checked the reviews before coming here. I agree with everyone else that the owner needs to have some customer service training. We came in here for the first time after looking on the website where it said it was $20 for a dog over 60 pounds and that the last call was 4 o'clock. We walked in at 3:35 and the woman was really irritated with us and said didn't you see my sign, I cut off at 3:30. When I said that the website still says 4 o'clock, her response was that she's been the owner of this establishment for 11 years and she knows what she has posted. The prices were also higher, it was $28, not $20. After some back and forth, she let us stay. Tried to make some small talk occasionally and she did not respond. As far as the facility, it smells like a typical grooming place. The water pressure was meh. And the dryer was not very strong nor warm. It might have been worth $20 for the convenience, but definitely not the price she is cha

    Happy huskies!

    Brought my two super furry huskies here for bath. They offer free shampoo, 2 towels, 1 scrubbie thingy lol , and a small hand towel. You can purchase various types of shampoo depending on your needs. I asked for a oder remover. They also offer to purchase extra towels if needed (my huskies needed like about 4). They also have a blow dryer! FREE! Along with an apron so you can stay nice and clean:) My overall experience was awesome. Just moved to the area so I'm definitely coming back! The staff was very nice. Oh! They also offer nail clipping and glands expression trim if needed.

    If there was less than a one, I would give it. My wife dropped me off to personal wash our Golden Doodle. When I went in, a man helped me with the wash station as far as getting the gate set up. There were no supplies on it, so I went to the shelf to get a couple of options. They do have signs as far as specialty items. After I got started, the "owner" Rosie came up to me and stated, "You know I charge for each of those... I asked her what I should be using, and she looked around and got a shampoo off another station. I told her mine was not set up, and she had been watching and waiting until I used one. She rudely said well you should have asked." At one point the man came by again and put a towel on the floor cause my Doodle shakes alot of water, when I was drying her once I was done with one towel I put it down on floor with the one he had put down....well out trotted Rosie and I was in trouble again even though both towels looked the same I was not supposed to put it there. At that point, I just wanted out of there. I told her, "Don't worry, I would not be back she said ok. Once done, I asked her if she was going to upcharge me she said yes, and I asked her for the SPECIAL SHAMPOO. She wanted to know why, I was pretty pissed by now and told her if I was being charged for it I was going to dump it down the drain, she said why I didn't really use it I said EXACTLY then she got really rude and huffy and said fine if I'm going to argue then she would just not charge me....if you want to be treated like crap go here if not stay away and since she is the groomer I would never leave one of my pets with her!!! After the argument, my Maggie wanted nothing more than to GTFO.

    They have coupons up front!

    Update your hours. Yelp said this place is open today (Sunday) and I drove all the way out here for nothing because it's closed.

    Rosy is amazing here, she knows how to do a scissor cut on all breeds (almost every groomer only uses clippers).

    I LOVE Just Fur Paws. I've been taking my furbabies there for at least 7 years (dogs and a cat)…read more I didn't realize I had given them 4 stars before and I am thrilled to be able to revise that to the 5 stars they deserve! When my previous dog got old, he developed bad arthritis and "doggie vertigo," and would not tolerate his head being touched. We stopped being able to pick him up because he would squeal and snap. I was really worried that I wouldn't be able to take him to get baths anymore, but the groomers at Just Fur Paws were incredible. They went above & beyond to accommodate him. What prompted this new review is my most recent experience, with a new dog I adopted just a month ago. He's the sweetest lovebug but reactive to new people and dogs. I almost cancelled the appointment because I was so sure he'd be turned away. He was barking and lunging at people in the parking lot, and at 45lbs, it can look at sound scary. When we walked through the door, he barked at Kelly, and I let her know that I would 100% understand if they couldn't groom him due to his reactivity. Instead, she sat on the ground with him and turned away slightly to avoid making eye contact, which calmed him down. While asking me about his history, she tossed him some treats and very quickly, he became friendly with her. He ended up doing extremely well! Kelly shared her insights on that, which was really helpful, and also answered my questions about how often he should get a bath considering he has sensitive skin but also gets stinky pretty quickly. Kelly isn't the one who groomed him (I didn't catch the groomer's name) but in my experience, ALL the groomers there are incredible. I have to shout-out Kelly though because she really went above & beyond. She took the time to talk to me, answer my questions, address my concerns, and slowly meet my dog, and she never once made me feel like I was inconveniencing her. The groomers at Just Fur Paws aren't just good at grooming- they really know a LOT about dogs and cats. They can provide helpful insights and recommendations, and they are able to accommodate pets with all sorts of personalities. The wait times seem to have decreased as well, in my opinion. It's a little pricey but 100% worth it to know my dog is being loved and taken care of. I truly believe that the groomers at Just Fur Paws don't just consider this a job they "have" to do...they genuinely love animals and put love and care into their work. Oh, and the work they do is great as well!!! I've always been happy with the results. My dog showed up stinky and dirty, and he came back to me silky soft, smelling great, and happy! AND his skin was not irritated at all, despite how sensitive it is. Thank you Kelly, and everyone at Just Fur Paws!

    I love this groomer!…read more I have 3 little dogs. 2 poodles and a Yorkie. My Yorkie is going on 17 years old so they take extra good care of him and are very patient and gentle and he comes out looking so handsome!
