Gentle Groomer

I've been going to Gentle Groomer for more than 3 years, and this is the only place I trust my dogs with. All of the staff are super nice, they are very quick and my dogs are not traumatized when they are ready to go home. I very highly recommend Gentle Groomer!

I needed a last-minute appointment and they were able to accommodate! Our girl doesn’t love to be groomed and past places have made her look silly, so we’ve been doing it ourselves lately, but petbar was so accommodating, communicative and did a great job! Very happy.

Gentle Groomer

I've taken my pittie and German Shepherd mix here several times and they are always SO wonderful!! My pittie doesn't like his paws being touched so his nails are always a challenge but they are so soothing and great with him and trim his nails no problem every time. I couldn't ask for a better grooming place!!
