If any of our Jasper fans want to help out, I have started a Meal Train for Jasper for his upcoming surgery.

Jasper's having surgery! While this is exciting and long awaited, Jasper is still having major surgery that will significantly limit mobility for a brief while. He will require extra care for the first week couple of weeks so during this time we want to help relieve some of the stress of any medical...

Playing and positive interactions with other dogs are important. We don't want dogs overwhelmed by crowds, that can damage a dog for life. Small groups can be more ideal for most pets. There are always the extroverts that can handle large groups, but most dogs don't fall in that category.

Good Morning! 🌞🌞🌞

Our hours of operation during the normal work week (M-F) are from 0800 to 1730 (8:00 am to 5:30 pm). We do allow drop offs for daycare only as early as 0730 (7:30 am), no earlier.

Should you need early drop off for any other service, grooming or boarding, this must be arranged in advance. Otherwise, my staff is directed to have you wait until we open. This is to allow us time to take care of the animals boarding with us and prepare for the day's workload.

Why do we allow the exception for daycare? Our daycare clients see us daily and usually don't require us to gather a lot of instructions. These are usually very quick transactions in the morning and less disruptive. Boarding and grooming requires a more detailed transaction so we need to be ready.

We call grooming clients one to two days prior to your appointment to confirm your appointment. This is a great time to give us the heads up that you will need an early drop off. Dropping off at 0730, does NOT guarantee that your dog will be groomed by 0830. Dropping off before we open, doesn't mean we groom your pet before we open. It is strictly a courtesy that can be arranged should you let us know ahead of time.

Thank you for your understanding.

When we aren't working with dogs or kids, we are working for charity. This weekend your favorite groomers will be on Team Cruella de C'ville for Charlottesville Ladies Arm Wrestling at Random Row. Saturday, doors open at 7, show starts at 8. Cruella's team is PG, but the event does contain some adult content and if you come to support us, please consider that when bringing young kids. ALL PROCEEDS GO TO THE SHELTER FOR HELP IN EMERGENCY!!!!

Raise money, be silly, have fun while supporting this great community.

After we finish grooming, before we call you...we usually have a makeout session.  Cuddles and kisses.         ❤️

Just a reminder, today is Sunday, September 14, 2025. We are open our normal hours, 9 am to 12 noon. If you are scheduled to pick up and will not make it, please let us know.

We will charge the $20 rescheduling fee for anyone who doesn't let us know that they are not coming.

These reminders became very necessary in a post Covid world. However, this last week I received a breath of fresh air. One of the orchestras that my daughter performs in sent an email reminding parents and students alike that they have to take responsibility and the weekly reminders will cease. I applaud them and will be taking a page out of their playbook. We will only be posting reminders when it is something out of the ordinary, such as holiday or inclement weather changes.

As always, our phone number is (434) 973-4437.

While today is a normal working day for us, it is by no means a normal day. We take a moment to remember this day. We remember each moment of 9/11.
