I have been going to compassionate care groomers for several years. My baby always looks fantastic and is extra cuddly after her groom (cause she smells sooo good). We love Michelle and fell lucky to have her as our groomer. She’s always kind to Gracie and kind to me.

The service was excellent. The staff are friendly and very attentive to my dog. My only problem is the cost; however I use Compassionate Groom/Spa as a backup for my dog.

Compassionate is really the right word to describe this place! Our dog is a formerly abused rescue that gets very nervous in grooming situations. They are SO patient with him and know how to reassure him and keep him calm. Emma is especially wonderful with him. After coming here, we’ll never take him anywhere else…

Overall 10/10 love compassionate groom and spa. My dogs are so well taken care of and loved by the staff. Michelle is both of my dogs favorite. We typically do nails and anal gland expression but have had the full service too and it’s wonderful. She has such the special touch with my difficult Puggle who hates her…
