Great first time experience. Brought my golden retriever Odin in and Kim did some fine work! Typically Odin is running for the exit once his groom is over but he felt very comfortable here.

First time visiting Barkly Pet Grooming and I couldn’t be happier! My dog looked so relaxed and happy when I picked him up, which says everything.

I brought my dog Lucky in for a grooming. They were very gentle and the process didn’t take long. He had a great time playing with the other dogs. I’ll be recommending Barkley’s to everyone I know.
