Good dogs. Gentle people.
A small team that gets to know the dog at the end of the lead.
A small salon, with room to breathe.
I opened The Tidy Paw in 2018 because I wanted a grooming day to feel like a good day for the dog, too.
I had worked in busy salons, and I knew how much a quieter room could change a nervous dog’s visit. We started with a raised tub, a couple of tables and a promise: tell people what their dog needs, then take the time to do it kindly.
Today Anna, Devon and I keep that same promise. We use a low dryer setting when a dog needs it, build in breaks, and call when they’re ready. You’re always welcome to tell us what worked, and what didn’t, last time.
