    Chili and Winston after their "Howloween" beautification at Wags and Whiskers.
    Holly A.

    I have two furbabies, a Frenchie and a Lab mix who have very different personalities. Winston will become calm in most situations after acclimating while my lab Chili has some serious separation anxiety and does not do well when crated. I don't take them anywhere other than Wags and Whiskers where I am more than confident they will be well cared for and beautifully groomed when I get the call that "my babies are ready." I can usually call same day and get an appointment. Even when they are super busy it seems they always find time to fit my two kiddos into the schedule. My pups are always dry and smell wonderful when I pick them up and are even dressed in seasonal/holiday appropriate scarves. I have had experiences at other groomers who have left them wet and shedding everywhere upon pick-up, this is never the case at Wags and Whiskers. Their prices are very affordable and the service can't be topped. I am always greeted with a smile, even when it is accompanied by loud barking in the background. :)

    Samson loved his first experience at Wags back in a September :)

    Wags 'N Whiskers did not disappoint! Was looking for a groomer and came across them on Yelp - all of the positive testimonials and photos sold me. They were super friendly, accommodating and Samson loved them! We will definitely be back after our first visit in September - it's reasonably priced (even for our 80lb Golden Retriever, Samson) and I know he'll be taken care of. Thanks, Wags - we'll be back!

    I take my precious baby here every few months to get a bath and her nails trimmed. She's a rescue kitty and can be difficult to handle when she gets stressed out. Jen always does a TERRIFIC with her and very reasonably priced. I have a hectic work schedule and am very happy that she takes my kitty on a Saturday morning. Highly recommend. I won't go anywhere else!

    So friendly and great price! And I love how they don't cage the dogs! So they don't have to be cooped up all day! It's great!

I asked to speak to a manager, none on duty. 1 Wüf Pet Spa OTR (Owner) 2 days ago Hi June, you are not a client in our database. I understand your son is upset about missing his appointment but it isn't appropriate to spam our business page with reviews. Apparently , you are not aware that it was my dog he was bringing in , not his. It was a new , first time appointment . That he had already sent the veterinary information in. He let you know that he had a work emergency and I would be coming from an hour and a half away to make this appointment. I encountered road construction that caused a delay . I had my grandchildren on a spring break outing that we left to make this appointment . The appointment was at 12 noon. I called at 11:55am to let you all know I was getting close. I was informed by your staff that the groomer was gone. My son was told that I had until 12:15pm. to make this appointment. He didn't think I would get there until 12:30. You. made no adjustments, after him being a loyal customer . Our appointment window was 12-3pm. A place with good customer service would have done some type of service in that window, even if you charged for the full service. A wash , nail trim maybe. Instead you chose to put him down as a no show , charging the full price. Does that seem right ? I normally don't do reviews. That's why it took me so long to respond. You have lost two good customers, with two sweet dogs just because you don't know what CUSTOMER SERVICE, means.

    Three months ago I was in the market for a new groomer for my 14 year old Mini Schnauzer. Being a…read moreprotective dog mother, I asked my veterinarian for recommendations. Furry and Fabulous, now known as Dawn's Blissful Paws Canine Spa, was one of the groomers on the list. Having looked at their reviews, I was happy with what I saw. I even called and asked if they would be equipped to handle an old, grumpy, little old man. They assured me that they have someone who is great with seniors. The first couple of grooms weren't spectacular, but the appointment that we had on July 9th was the absolute worst. I usually get my dog cut with a two guard and keep his face fluffy like a puppy. The attached photo is what I was greeted with on the 9th when I picked him up. He was shaved to the skin (which I did not ask for), had blood on his beard, looked greasy, had irritated spots all over his body and was still stinky. They did make me aware that they hit his quick while clipping his nails, but why didn't they clean him up after? Why was blood all over his beard? He looked and felt so gross that I had to immediately give him a bath when we got home. Not only that, I had to take him to the vet because he's been limping and not putting weight on his front left leg since his appointment. The vet and I both agree that someone was too rough with him during the groom. Stay away from this business if you care about your animals! *first photo is furry and fabulous's work, second is done by his old groomer.

His response perfectly demonstrates exactly what I described. *The lies *The excuses *The accusations Just as expected. I (unlike the shop owner and the 'groomer') have no reason to lie. The pictures show only the visible part of the damage. The permanent damage to his trachea, his knee and front leg/shoulder cannot be seen except on X-rays. The emotional damage and PTSD is an everyday thing and I'm still working at a snails pace, gentling him back into grooming. He doesn't shake as much as he did at first but it's still awful for him. These people are monsters, and the 'groomer', Cassidy...I don't know this person, never met her before, but I do know that she has absolutely no business dealing with animals. Shame on you people! Dropped off my Pom for basic grooming with Cassidy. Instead of a well groomed fluffy happy Pomeranian, I picked up a very quiet little Pom with The entire bottom half of guard hairs cut off, you can see his skin through the undercoat that is left. He was abused in a manner that caused his trachea to partially collapse with improper use of the grooming loop. Cassidy caused his front right leg to no longer have full range of motion, and a luxating patella (his right rear leg), repaired with no issues for ten years, is knocked out of place as a result of the 'grooming' he received from Cassidy. The owner was rude, accused me of lying. Cassidy lied. Another employee there lied. Owner was physically very threatening, approaching me quickly several times stopping inches from my face, so close his spit got on my face as he yelled at me. Of that's the sort of thing you are looking for, you're going to absolutely LOVE this place!

They are the first groomer that hasn't hurt my pup while grooming him, he came back to me so happy and crazy just like when I dropped him off. The prices were incredible for the service. Normally it costs well over $100 for a doodle grooming, but I paid around $65 for the grooming (bath, trim, nails), it was more with a tip of course but they were wonderful so absolutely deserved! So thank you a ton for being good to him, he'll be back soon!!

They have a very limited supply of aqaurium gravel and the man in the fish department totally ignored us. And when another customer appeared, he helped them instead.

Yes you pay a little more on what you buy there, but their stock is in greater abundance and their fish are much more better take care of.

More than halfway through this first series, we are so pleased with the results, which are helping keep us and our dog safe. JO is a very skilled dog trainer. More than once I've thought of him as a dog whisperer as our one year old rescue dog responds almost instantly to the new commands he teaches her. My husband and I then immediately practice them with our girl to ensure the lessons are sticking. We practice in the training area and around the store, which is always full of distractions to test our dog. The lessons have stuck and we use them regularly at home and when we are out and about.
