Our full service grooming salon is the best in the area. Our newly renovated state of the art facility brags the most modern grooming technology. From our Clipper Vac® system that ensures a precise cut, to our FURminator Shed-less Treatment®, which eliminates the need for a cut, we can cover all of your pet grooming needs. We guarantee that each visit to our salon will be an enjoyable experience for both you and your pet.  

Perhaps you are unable to bring your pet in yourself. No problem. Our famous Pet Taxi service is available. We pick up your pets in the morning, take them to our salon, and deliver them back home in the afternoon. If you’re not going to be home, we will be happy to keep your house key on file.  Remember, our staff is fully bonded and insured.  

Humanity…before Vanity

We stress humanity before vanity at our salon. We want you to have your pet groomed not for the sake of fashion but rather for the health and happiness of your pet.  For example, we encourage shorter cuts for geriatric pets who can no longer clean themselves properly or stand for long periods of time to be bathed and groomed. Busy pet owners often lack the time required to properly groom their pets at home; short, easy to maintain cuts are suggested for these pets. We strongly recommend shorter cuts for those pets with various skin conditions. Heavy undercoated pets are high maintenance for the owner. If you are thinking about having your pet in a show coat, please consider the time involved in maintaining that coat. Will you dread the time required each day to brush your pet? We charge extra for matted coats, and if the dematting process will be too strenuous for your pet, we will not do it. We want your furry friend to be enjoyable to you, not a burden. All pets deserve to be comfortable, healthy, and happy. We feel very strongly about the humanity, before vanity principle and adhere strictly to it in our salon. We will not put any pet in a cut that we feel is inhumane or not beneficial to the pet.

Vaccine Requirements  

For the safety and protection of all the pets in our salon, we require the following vaccinations to be current before your pet can be groomed. Dogs must have Rabies, DHLPPC (Distemper, Hepatitis, Leptospirosis (optional), Parainfluenza, Parvovirus), and Bordetella (Kennel Cough) vaccines. Cats must have Rabies and FVRCP (Panleukopenia or Feline Distemper, Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus, and Pneumonitis) vaccines. We strictly enforce our vaccine requirements for both existing and new clients.

Grooming is Good
For Your Pet’s Health

Regular grooming is essential to your pet’s good health. It should start in puppy or kittenhood so your pet learns to accept and even enjoy it. Grooming involves coat brushing and care, but at Pet's Best Friend it also includes attention to ears, eyes, teeth, mouth, skin and feet. The benefits of proper grooming include:

• Fewer skin, eye, ear and paw pad problems.
• More effective external parasite control.
• Fewer shedding problems.
• Fewer unsightly, malodorous mats.
• Earlier detection of potential health problems.
• Acclimation to handling.
