We pride ourselves on excellent customer service, only carrying the highest quality pet food brands, and having the cleanest self-service dog wash and dog grooming areas in Charlottesville. We love shopping at Animal Connection because Pattie Zeller and her staff are the most knowledgeable team we have ever encountered in retail.
They provide the reasoning and "thought process" behind our product selections, which is important to our family. We also really appreciate Pattie's commitment to the community. She is the visionary behind Dog Fest and many other events that benefit local charities and nonprofits. She is making the community a better place for so many people though Animal Connection.

Report
At Animal Connection, we love all of our customers from local areas near us! I took my elderly dog here today for her first grooming since being barred by her previous groomer for becoming aggressive. Carol was great and, with a lot of patience and expertise, she was able to get my dog groomed and looking great!

We do in depth research on every manufacturer, product and ingredient in every brand we stock and insist on the best the industry has to offer. We travel to the world's largest pet trade shows to gain new product information and attend seminars so we understand why they're the right fit for our store's line up of great products you can trust for your pet's well being.
Dog Grooming
Report
Our grooming is a premium service, not a production line like other stores. We are skilled in techniques that help pets who have had previous bad experiences become more comfortable with grooming. We hand dry every dog and never use cage dryers, which can overheat and stress your pet.
We prefer not to put pets in crates, so when you book your grooming, plan to bring your dog at their appointment time and be available to pick them up as soon as we give you a call to let you know they're ready.We groom dogs that may not be good with other dogs, so we ask you to honor their personal time with our groomers and you are prompt for your pet's drop off and pick up time.

Self-Service Dog Wash
Report
Our self service dog wash includes all natural shampoos, face wash, big thirsty bath towel and force air dryer, ear cleaner, brush/comb and use of hydraulic lift grooming table. Nail Trim/Grind is based on groomer availability and is an additional cost. If you are bringing more than one dog for self wash, please bring a friend with you, as your dog cannot be loose in the wash area.
