Before we found Spa and Stay, we tried so many different places to get our Maltese, Buddy, groomed. He’s the sweetest dog in the world, but he absolutely HATES baths! 😂🐶🛁 But the moment he hears he’s going to Spa and Stay, he couldn’t be more excited! ❤️ That alone tells you everything you need to know about how…

I’ve been bringing my girls, Luna and Rain, here for God knows how long, and I have nothing but wonderful things to say! The staff has always been amazing, loving, and caring with my girls.

I can’t give Spaw and Stay enough praise! I’ve been a client for so long and my pup is always taken care of so well. I’ve had experiences with groomers in the past that left me very cautious about trying out a new place but ever since I first took my dog to Spaw and Stay, I’ve had nothing but great experiences and…

I have been going to this groomer for a couple of years now. They are progressively worse with every move and every new groomer. Last time my dog was groomed she could not stop licking herself and had an irritated rash. I let it go. Just was groomed again and she has a horrendous rash that needed a vet visit,…

Haven't had time to take my girl to the groomers, and we definitely take advantage of her not having super curly doodle hair and don't brush her as much as we should, so she had a little matting.

This has been our Sasha’s grooming place since she was about 4 months old now turning 3! Karen is absolutely amazing and Sasha runs to her every time. She makes her feel comfortable and loved every step of the way. I recommend her anytime someone asks where she gets her cuts from since she always looks polished and perfect! Thank you always ❤️
