We only pop in here with our Ollie dog to get his nails clipped every few weeks. Sara is ALWAYS available within a few min. She is kind, she is gentle and still quick to get us in and right back out. Thanks for exactly what we need, Sara!

We brought our dogs to Sara from the time she opened her shop. We left Colorado in 1999, returned in 2018, and continue to bring our new dog to her. Outstanding service!

Oliver asked me to let you know what a good job you did grooming him yesterday. His fur is so soft and his nails cut just right! Thanks Sara!

Report
When bringing my dog in for a bath I had asked that they do not trim my dogs nails. My dog does not let anyone let alone groomers touch her nails and has to be sedated at the vet for a nail trim so I was very open about not touching her nails at all. When picking her up I was shown his bloody scratches all over his arms and made to feel awful for what he had done to himself. He had pinned my dog down so bad that she clawed his arms.
My dog would never hurt a fly unless someone was pinning her down trying to trim her nails after being told not to try and clip her nails. She must have been terrified. My dog was shaking and exhausted when we got her in the car and I will never be taking her back there.
