Pet grooming and boarding facility.
What I would like you to know about The Dog Barn is that your pet's safety and well being is our first priority. We care about our own dogs and treat yours the same way we would want our dogs cared for. That's why I feel it it is very important to have a trained, experienced, and knowledgeable staff. As well as a clean facility that is as stress free as possible.
We have a large fenced in yard for dogs to play or if they prefer we will take them for a scenic walk. We do this three times a day as apart of our daily routine. We often hear that our dogs just love coming here and we never get tired of hearing that.
We offer a variety of shampoos to meet individual skin and coat needs. Pets are styled to pet owners preferences, always using a gentle touch to achieve a calm grooming experience. Our groomers stay updated on the latest styles in the grooming world and current in today's pet health.
