My wife booked an appointment with them because our usual groomer was booked. I'd never heard of them, so I looked through the Yelp reviews and sure enough, lots of negative reviews for cutting or "nIcking" dogs making them bleed while grooming. Upon arrival I found very friendly staff, but also very busy. They told me it would be two hours for two dogs and that they would contact me which they never did.
I called back 2.5 hours later and the said my dogs were done. Initially I thought they did a great job. Upon further review I found they cut my 2 year old maltipoo on her chest. I will not be returning.

My pups Linus & Lulu had their first professional grooming appointments in their young lives. What a wonderful experience! Kelsie took great care of them both. They will now be regulars at this fantastic groomer!

Took my 2 year old pups for their 1st professional grooming yesterday. I picked this location because of their great Google reviews. They did not disappoint! Linus & Lulu are now "regulars". Great staff too. Thanks Kelsie!

75$ is a bit too pricey for a basic small dog groom. No nail trim, no cut, nothing but a cheap smelling shampoo wash. We won't be returning -
