We are so impressed with the care of our pets. They have taken care of our old and anxious German Shepherd, our big fluffy malamute, and our cat! I have nothing but great things to say about the prompt communication and the great care for our fur family members!

I appreciate Lathered’s Professional Pet Grooming. They always take good care of Charlie. They are kind, caring, competent and very accommodating. The most important thing is that Charlie loves being there and I know he is safe.

I have drove to Brookings (from Omaha) twice this past year. Marty fixed bad cuts from groomers here. She is fast, efficient and loving when cleaning up bad cuts on Cooper. He always looks so cute after she is done!! She would be my only groomer if I lived in SD!!

The BEST!! I can’t rave enough about Lathered. My dogs were a hot mess when I brought them in. From the moment they were brought it, to the moment I picked them up it was a great experience.
