Dogs’ Own Daycare and Grooming is a different tier of professional care, characterized by countless accomplishments and meaningful community involvement. Some seem to think we are “the cat’s meow,” but really we are more like the dog’s bark (but not the annoying kind that keeps you up late at night.)

We pride ourselves on the fact that all of our groomers have graduated from the Dogs’ Own Grooming School. Having this education ensures that each of our groomers has the knowledge and skills to meet our high standards and yours. All of our daycare staff have also gone through rigorous training so that they can provide optimal care for every pet.

Though we don’t like to brag, knowing some of our accomplishments may help put your mind at ease when choosing a daycare or groomer that you are comfortable and confident in.
