Testimonials

Read What Our Clients Say

  • "The BEST! Brought my Dad's dog there to get groomed. The dog is 6 pounds and a ball of fire. I was worried she would give them a hard time.
    I handed the leash off to Stephanie (who was extremely confident and brave) She explained what she was going to do, I when I came back (in less than an hour) and the dog looked great.
    So happy and lucky to have this amazing place in town!
    PS, my sisters dog got her nails trimmed there, usually that dog is scared to death- at P and A it was a breeze"
    Jane D.
  • "What a wonderful place to bring your loved one! We brought Button for the first time on Saturday 3-23rd. The staff treated her so nice and called to check on her the next day! She looked amazing and the best thing was she felt comfortable and happy like she had been coming here forever! Thank you!!"
    Nancy L.
  • "My pup Sami goes here every 5 weeks and has been for 3 years. We both look forward to every visit! The staff is unbelievable, always friendly, communication is on point and they deeply care about their jobs and fur clients. They do an amazing job with my pupper and she always leaves smelling delicious.

    You will not be disappointed, take your pup here ASAP!"

  • "Love Paws and Anchor. I drive over an hour to have my dog pampered here...they’re that good!"
    Brooke B. F.
  • "I just had my dog Olive groomed there for the first time and I was not disappointed!!! The absolute friendliest and most helpful staff ever and they were so great with my girl!! She suffers from residual trauma and skidish tendecies from her pre-adoption life; as she is a rescue, and everyday is a work in progress... i was pretty nervous leaving her alone with strangers for the first time, however the ladies at Paws and Anchor couldn't have made it any easier or made me feel more secure in leavi"
