Friendly grooming for dogs and cats in Sellwood, Portland. Hand-dried, never caged, one pet on the table at a time.
What a groom costs
Pick your pup’s size. Every visit includes nails, ears and a text when they’re ready.
Dematting is $15 per 15 minutes, up to 30. Past that, we clip short and let the coat grow back.
Every pet
gets a card
Since 2014 we’ve kept a groom card for every dog and cat that comes through the door. You tell us once, and every groomer knows.

rules
Hand-dried, never caged
Heat in a closed box is how dogs get hurt at groomers. Every pet here is dried by a person holding the dryer.
No sedation, ever
If a pet is too stressed to groom, we stop, call you and book shorter visits instead.
Double coats stay on
Huskies, goldens and shepherds get a deshed. We only clip them when a vet asks us to.
Never alone on the table
Nobody stands on a grooming table without a groomer’s hands on them. Not for a second.
Seniors set the pace
Older dogs get a mat to stand on, breaks between steps and extra time at no charge.

Stuck on our fridge
We text a photo when every groom is done. The best replies get printed and stuck up in the back room.
Dee
Maple’s person
Thank you for mentioning the lump on her hip. Vet says it’s nothing, but I never would have found it.
Marcus
Rufus’s person
First groom he didn’t shake at. Booking the next one now.
Hannah
Bean’s person
What shampoo was that? The whole car smells like oatmeal cookies.
Chris
Waffles’s person
The doodle surcharge is fair. She finally looks like a dog and not a mop.
Ana
Juniper’s person
She keeps checking herself out in the oven door.
Biscuit’s first bath!
