WASH & WAG PET GROOMING REVIEWS

I’ve been taking my dogs here for 10+ years for nail trims. Both have black nails and my vet is reluctant to trim them. The staff are excellent. My elderly dog is skittish and they are kind and gentle with her. I highly recommend Wash and Wag.

I’ve always had the best experience here! I bring my cat here regularly to get her claws trimmed, and I’m always in and out in just a few minutes. They are all super sweet and always remember my kitty. Highly recommend.

I've been taking my doggie here for a few years and they are amazing. The staff and quality of care is a 10/10. I am always comfortable leaving brandy with them. When I pick her up she looks so good and they also give her the cutest hankies. I definitely recommend.

PAWTERO REVIEWS

Yogi came back looking so handsome!!! this place is amazing and the staff is so nice, i was a little nervous, because he gets a little nervous but he came out looking very happy and pretty. Price makes sense for all the work they do - Thank you so much.

Great service. my dog is large and fairly difficult for nail trimmings, she just dosent like having her feet touched and she's 110 lbs. They handled her gently, and quickly. Very professional and reasonable price. Thanks.

Did a nail trimming. These guys were great and were able to quickly get the job done. They did a good job giving off upbeat and friendly vibes to calm my dog down.

HAPPY TAILS TOO DOG AND CAT GROOMING REVIEWS

Excellent work! We used to take our lab to happy tails too and now we taken our long hair Chihuahua for the first time. As I mentioned it was our little one’s first time and they were absolutely wonderful with him especially with how nervous he was! And even better his haircut is absolutely adorable we couldn’t be happier! Thank you so much happy tails too we will be returning.

The staff is very friendly, great work Azul is a very nervous dog but she was very calm and her self around them and after her grooming Highly recommend.

Very good! I've had my large breed groomed there once or twice and her nails cut a lot. They are always really good and patient even though my big dog is kinda a pita and tough to work with.
