With great caution, we brought our dog Milo there for the first time to have his nails trimmed and get him bathed. We was worried that Milo would be too aggressive but Rich was great. He made friends with him and got the job done without incident.

Would give zero stars if I could. Richard was absolutely terrible. Weve had our cat groomed many times in the past and never had a worse experience. Richard was incredibly rude to my boyfriend who was working with him and my cat. He kept arguing with Sarah the whole time and asking my boyfriend if he had a problem which my boyfriend repeatedly said no to. He kept arguing with my boyfriend the whole time. He said he was done and got everything with chunks of hair hanging off and knots left so my boyfriend said oh I think there may be some more knots. Richard then again was rude to him yelling

They are always really nice people. They are great with the pets. The lady i saw today was extremely gentle with my cat and did her nails and cleaned her ears. Great price as well.
