We had such a wonderful experience with Chanelle! We were really impressed how comfortable and happy Remy was throughout the entire experience. Remy is usually very anxious after going to the groomer, but after his appointment with Chanelle, he was completely himself—happy, relaxed, and not anxious at all! Chanelle…

Just had our first experience with Barks N Bubbles, and we are very happy with her service! We have two labradoodles and will be using her to groom them both. So nice not to have to take our dogs to a groomers and have them wait in a kennel before and after their haircuts.
We had such a wonderful experience with Chanelle! We were really impressed how comfortable and happy Remy was throughout the entire experience. Remy is usually very anxious after going to the groomer, but after his appointment with Chanelle, he was completely himself—happy, relaxed, and not anxious at all! Chanelle was also amazing about communicating with me throughout the service. She would text me to make sure I was comfortable with what she was doing before moving forward, which made me feel like Remy was truly in good hands.

Fist Grooming for our Rosco. He's around 90 lbs, he was a bit leary, as we were due to his size. Dog Groomer Shaunell did an amazing job with Roscoe. He was so happy with his clean ears, clipped nails and a great deshedding. Roscoe had a big smile😁 As did we. Thank You Shaunell😍

Shaunelle is wonderful! I have three dogs and it is so hard to take them to the groomers. Shaunelle shows up on time, loves my animals and does an amazing job! I hired her to just cut my dogs nails before she started her mobile grooming and I just love her! She’s efficient, affordable and does a great job! I highly recommend her!
