Testimonials
So this was my first experience at the Oregon Ave. location, & with PetSmart dog grooming. Anthony was our pet stylist. He was kind, professional, respectful, and knowledgeable. My neighbor was very pleased with the grooming of her beloved pet Chihuahua / Shih Tzu Nikki . I would definitely recommend Anthony,as he is patient and gentle. He will be our go-to guy for dog grooming. Great experience.

Don’t use their training services. They took my money over 6 months ago. I just want my money back for a training service they canseled, and refused to refund.
– N/A
I was told that they could not groom my dog because they couldn’t handle her in the tub. Aren’t you trained to handle this. I was very disappointed
