My Gino absolutely LOVED the spa! The groomer was so sweet and patient, even with Gino's usual anxiety. He looks and smells fantastic, and his fur is so soft. Highly recommend!♥️

On 6/13/2025 Cheryl Lipka had this to say:
Tracy is very professional,flexible with appointments and skilled. My dog is 7 so we have been to multiple groomers where she acted very anxious and didn’t want to leave my side. When I take her to the doggie spa we walks though the door and runs up to Tracy. I don’t think she total enjoys getting groomed , but she’s definitely happier and calmer
