About Us

The Doggie Salon & Spa always strives to give your pets a happy experience by showing them we are gentle and loving. We are exactly what our slogan reads on the front of our building, "a warm heart for cold noses."

Our pet stylists do everything possible to make your pet's grooming experience enjoyable and safe. We accommodate each pet individually and work hard to keep our atmosphere clean, organized, disinfected, quiet and peaceful. However, due to the nature of our industry some days can be a little hectic with dogs that love to speak their minds! Our tools and equipment are serviced regularly to ensure they are safe and working properly. We use a unique grooming table system called the LIPS system. This type of setup allows the groomer to use two grooming loops on a dog to ensure more safety and stability when on the table.

We use Nature's Specialties Shampoo, a pet shampoo that is cruelty free, natural, non toxic, good for the environment, and safe for your pet. We carry a variety of pet facials, skin care shampoos, conditioners, and leave in treatments offered in our add-on Spa treatments. We offer fur dying at your request with safe, non-toxic semi-permanent dye. We hand wash and hand dry each pet which helps keep them fluffy and soft. We do not "cage dry" our clients with any heat dryers. Those dogs who do not like our blow dryers or have severe skin allergies are air dried with thermostat regulated dryers and/or dryers that only circulate room temperature air. Even when air drying your pet, we will not leave air on pets for an extended amount of time. Clients are welcome to bring in any prescription shampoo or rinse provided by your veterinarian on your pet.

Cats are also welcome at the Doggie Salon & Spa. Our certified pet stylist, Lynn Holmes is exceptional with cats and highly experienced in cat grooming. Cats require special safety precautions, techniques, and patience. If your cat will safely tolerate grooming, please book your appointment in advance.
