What Customers Are Saying

Lisa Z.
"We can't say enough great things about the staff at Dogish. They do an incredible job grooming our Springers. Our dogs are treated like family, come home happy and relaxed, and we always get compliments on how beautiful they look. In addition, Dogish carries some very yummy treats and cool pet accessories. We're so glad to have found Dogish!"
Suzanne F.
"Our dog loves Dogish and so do we! I have tried 3 other places and have never experienced any place with the attention to detail and concern for the dog and owner's wishes that everyone at Dogish shows. It's really a top notch grooming business in terms of professionalism and quality. Thank you!"
Jackie L.
"Dogish is the best! They do a wonderful job grooming and our dog has never looked better! Susie is very knowledgeable and thoughtful before and during the grooming process. She has groomed our mini-goldendoodle with the utmost of care. I feel so comfortable with Dogish grooming our dog (who is like a child to us) and am very happy I found them."

FAQ

How long is a grooming session?

We know how important it is to you that your dog feels secure and well cared for — and how much you look forward to having your dog back home. We do our best to make grooming as efficient and stress-free as possible. In most cases, about three hours gives us enough time for a full bath, blow-dry, and trim. As soon as your dog is finished and ready to head home, we’ll give you a call right away.

To achieve the best results, your dog’s coat should be thoroughly clean and dry before trimming. While we work efficiently, we resist rushing, which can lead to mistakes or sub-standard results. We try our best to balance effectiveness and good care with speed. We find that 3 hours is typically the right amount of time to allow for bathing, drying, and coat trimming.

We’ll give you a call right away when your dog’s grooming session is finished, and they’re ready to head home.

A puppy who is socialized to the grooming process when young will grow up to enjoy this regular and important activity. We recommend a slow introduction to the grooming setting and tools starting at 3-4 months of age. The first visit will include our Puppy Partial Groom, consisting of a conditioning shampoo bath, a towel drying, a gentle introduction to the hand dryer, and a gentle application of the brush and comb. We then recommend follow-up groomings at 4-6 week intervals. By the third visit, most puppies will be comfortable and ready for a full grooming and haircut. We are always honored to be chosen by a family to care for their dog’s grooming needs. We’re especially thrilled to be part of a dog’s grooming journey from puppy-hood.

Yes! Please call us to schedule cat grooming during quiet hours. A Partial Cat Grooming service includes a dry bath, a nail trim, and ear cleaning. A Full Cat Grooming includes, in addition, a full haircut.
