We adopted a 16 year old dog last April and had never needed a groomer before. Since good friends board at Leader of the Pack, we took her there. WOW did we find the perfect groomer for us in Gabby!! She has outstanding knowledge of grooming and what each dog needs individually. She strives to make each dog comfortable and their owners happy. Today, as always, she went above and beyond for Pippi and we love her for it !!!❤️❤️❤️

We are extremely happy with the progress we have seen in such a short period of time. The staff are absolutely amazing and we are gaining so much from the training Kasper is receiving. The trainer is addressing his needs and the behaviors that we are concerned about. What they are doing has made such a big difference! They are extremely knowledgeable and they take the time to share feedback and answer our questions. I learned real quick that our dogs are most important to them and everything else follows. Even when we are in a class, he still gets individual attention with a focus on what needs to be addressed.
I would also highly recommend their grooming services! The groomer took on a major task with our older dog who no one could ever groom. She not only did a wonderful job, but she did it with love and care. She took the time to find out what works best for him and helped him work through his fears. She even sang “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” to him during the process. What groomer does that? A wonderful groomer like her! I am so grateful to her and her very kind and gentle ways. Her personality, positive attitude, and genuine outlook made such a big difference. Reilly and Kasper both found their home away from home!
