Testimonials

On 11/20/2025 Reanna S. had this to say:
Kim and her staff were absolutely amazing. Quick response when booking an appointment, great grooming skills and they go above and beyond with customer service. I had my infant with me so they offered to carry my dog to the car (it was raining and they don't want him getting dirty). Truly grateful for the kindness of this team and am very pleased with how my pup looks.

I moved back to Tempe and needed to find a place to get my lab’s nails trimmed. My dog is a bit nervous and anxious in new places. Kim was so kind and patient. The whole visit was quick and smooth! I am relieved we found a new place where Harley can have a good experience. Thank you!!! ❤️

We just moved to Arizona and were nervous looking at some of the reviews for grooming places. Luckily we found grooming by kim and are super happy with the results! Bella is a bee nervous and shaky dog and the photo she sent us looked like she was happy!! Some people don't like to groom husky's so I'm super grateful she was able to take her and she did a FABULOUS job with her! I definitely recommend getting your dog groomed here if you are looking for a new place. :) thank you kim!

I was scared finding a new grooming place for my dog considering she is very nervous around new people but I am very happy to have found grooming by Kim! She did an amazing job with Bella and sent us a photo where she didn’t look nervous or shaky at all! The groom looks amazing and her nails look perfect! I will definitely be coming back!

Kim did a fantastic job at grooming my French Bulldog and Pitbull! I had been unable to bathe my 70lb pitbull due to his strong dislike of water. Kim tackled this task with no hesitation! He was able to get bathed and looked (& smelled!) so much better! Thank you!!
