We just picked Hogan up after his bath at TransFURmations Spa and once again they did such a wonderful job! 🐾✨ Hogan came back looking so clean, fresh, soft, and happy. You can truly tell when people genuinely care for animals, and the love and patience from the staff really shows. The facility is clean, organized, and welcoming, and I always feel comfortable leaving Hogan in their care. Thank you for treating him like family and for always making him look and smell amazing. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy grooming and daycare place in Springfield! ❤️🐶🤗

I can’t say enough good things about Heather! She has such a special way with my dog — unlike other groomers where he gets anxious and tries to escape, he actually loves seeing her and feels completely comfortable in her care. Grooming his paws has always been a challenge because he hates it, but Heather handles it gently and skillfully. She always grooms him exactly how I ask, and he looks perfect every time. Recently due to my own medical situation, I wasn’t sure if I could make my appointment and had to cancel last minute. Heather was very understanding and professional, which meant a lot to me. Her kindness and clear communication make working with her so easy. If you want a groomer who genuinely cares and creates a calm, welcoming environment, Heather is the best!

Gracie has super powers when it comes to bathing my pups. I was struggling to find a groomer that could handle my German shepherd when I was told to contact Gracie a couple years ago. Gracie was able to take my girl with no problem and she went from being scared at the groomer to loving Gracie as much as I do. If you are struggling to find a groomer, I recommend Gracie over anyone, any day!
