Good to know

A locally owned dog care company in Seminole, near the beaches and St. Petersburg, serving Seminole, Clearwater, Largo, St. Petersburg, Pinellas Park, Gulfport, St. Pete Beach, Treasure Island, Madeira Beach, Redington Beach, Indian Shores and Clearwater Beach.

The salon uses hydraulic lifting tables and tubs so older and big dogs can step up without being lifted. Dogs are dried with room-temperature dryers, or towel-dried and left to air dry in the turf play yard if they prefer quiet. No kennel dryers.

Appointments are spaced far apart so groomers never rush. Staff are trained in canine CPR and first aid.

The mobile van is a Mercedes Sprinter with its own power and water, so it does not need to hook up at your home, and it has room for dogs of any size.

Grooming is by appointment only.
