What grooming services do you offer?

We provide full‑service grooming including bath & blow‑dry, brush‑out/deshedding, nail trim & file, ear cleaning, sanitary trim, and breed‑specific or owner‑preferred haircuts. Add‑ons (like teeth brushing, de‑skunking, paw pad care, or de‑matting) are available as needed.

How often should my dog be groomed?

Most dogs do well with grooming every 4–8 weeks, depending on coat type, lifestyle, and shedding. Double‑coated and doodle breeds may need more frequent brushing and grooming to prevent matting. We’re happy to recommend a schedule for your pup.

What vaccinations or health requirements do you need for boarding and grooming?

For the safety of all pets in our care, we require that dogs be current on core vaccinations (typically Rabies, Distemper/Parvo (DHPP)) and Bordetella (kennel cough) for boarding and daycare‑style play. Puppies must have completed age‑appropriate vaccine series. Dogs should arrive flea/tick‑free and in overall good health.

What should I bring when my dog boards with you?

Please bring, any medications in original containers with instructions, and a labeled leash/collar. You’re welcome to include a favorite blanket or small toy for comfort (non‑destructible items only). We provide clean bedding, bowls, and lots of care.

How do drop‑off and pick‑up work? Can I book specific times?

To keep pets calm and appointments on schedule, we book specific check‑in and pick‑up windows. For grooming, most visits are 3–4 hours depending on coat, behavior, and services. For boarding, we’ll confirm your check‑in/check‑out times when you book. Running late? Please call us—late fees or rescheduling may apply during peak times so we can keep the day running smoothly.

"We love Donna!!! She is so kind, personable, and absolutely amazing with Bailey! Bailey is a Golden Retriever who spends a lot of time outside, so she gets a pretty thick undercoat and tangled hair. Donna does such an amazing job getting all of that out and making her look and feel her best! I live about 45 minutes away, and the drive is absolutely worth it. Bailey always comes home looking beautiful, and I couldn’t ask for a better person to take care of her. You can tell Donna truly cares about the dogs she grooms. 10/10 recommend!!"
