Just a heads up, we are currently booking 3 weeks out. We have very limited appointments left for the week of July 4th. Please make your appointments ASAP if you need grooming before the holiday. We're in our busy season, we're booking weeks out, it's always best to make your next appointment before leaving from the current one. Our Saturday appointments are booked out months in advance, if you need a Saturday appointment, we highly suggest making them for the year. We will be closed July 4th, 5th and 6th to give our staff a well deserved long holiday weekend.

Please keep pets comfortable and safe inside for the next week. Also, the pavement is way too hot for those daily walks....
