These two cute little ladies, Junior and Snowball, came in for their very first groom today! They were absolute sweethearts and did so good for me. Their mom and dad wanted them nice and short for summer, so of course I gave them the cutest little faces to match their short bodies. Just look at those precious faces—I absolutely loved having them in! 💕🐾

✨ Happy Monday, everyone! ✨

I still have several openings for September, so if your pup is due for a full pamper day, now’s the time to book. 🍂 Fall is right around the corner, which means coats will be shedding and blowouts are on the way — and I’m here to take care of all of that for you!

If you haven’t scheduled your next appointment in advance, I highly recommend doing so to secure your spot. I can’t wait to give your pup the spa day they deserve. 💕

📲 Call or text 763-357-6557 anytime, or feel free to PM me to book.

Thank you, and I can’t wait to pamper your babies! 🐾

Can you believe this is the same dog? Oakley had quite the transformation yesterday and turned out so handsome! We didn’t go for the typical Schnauzer look—his mom preferred a cleaner style, and I always say, “Whatever mom wants, mom gets!” I think he turned out even better than we imagined. Oakley was such a good boy for his first groom with me, and I’m so happy to welcome him to the Paw Spa family.🩵

My boy Mr. Zeke came in for his pamper day! He even picked out his own bow—well, technically, he picked one that didn’t match his collar, so we compromised on the one he’s wearing now. He approved of it, so I think we were off to a great start.

Zeke came in for a nail trim, a nice bath, and of course, plenty of loveys while he was here. He’s such a happy boy, and I just adore him. I’m always excited when Zeke visits the spa—he’s just such a good boy… and he definitely knows it. 💛🐾

Today I had the pleasure of welcoming two very special new boys to the Paw Spa — meet Axel and Jaxx! 🐾 They were absolute gentlemen for their very first groom with me, and wow… their before and after is a total transformation! ✨ Not only did they behave like perfect little gentlemen, but now they look the part too. I’m so excited to have them join the Paw Spa family and can’t wait to keep them looking this handsome for years to come. Welcome, Axel and Jaxx! 💙💙

*Important Safety Policy Reminder*

Hi everyone! I hope you’re having a wonderful week so far. I want to take a moment to remind you of one of my most important safety policies, explain why it matters, and make it clear that there are no exceptions.

1. Collars and Harnesses Must Be Properly Fitted

• All dogs must arrive for drop-off and pickup wearing a secure collar or harness and be on a leash.
• A properly fitted collar should allow you to slide two fingers between the collar and your dog’s neck—no more, no less.
• If your dog can slip their head or body out of their collar or harness, it is too loose.
• Harnesses must also be snug and secure; if your dog can pull out of it, it defeats the purpose entirely.

Why this matters: I live in a residential area next to a busy road. If a dog slips out of their collar or harness, they could quickly run into traffic or get lost. I never want to see an accident happen to your pet.

2. Dogs Must Be Leashed at All Times

• From the moment your dog leaves your vehicle until they are inside my door (and vice versa), they must remain leashed.
• Do not allow your dog to approach other people or dogs without permission.
• I have people who walk my sidewalk regularly, often with their own pets, and they may not feel comfortable having a random dog run up to them.
• Even if your dog is friendly, others may not be, and some people have fears or past traumas involving dogs.

3. No More Retractable Leashes

• Retractable leashes will no longer be allowed.
• They can cause rope burns, injury to you or your dog, and offer less control—especially in emergency situations.
• They are also prone to tangling, snapping unexpectedly, and encourage pulling.
• If you arrive with a retractable leash, you will need to purchase a standard leash from me (available at a very low price) or return with one before your appointment.

Our Goal: Safety First
These rules are not just policies—they’re here to protect your dog, other pets, pedestrians, and myself.
Your dog’s safety is your responsibility while you’re here, and keeping them secure helps ensure a safe and respectful environment for everyone.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. If you have questions, please reach out—I’m always happy to help.

Yesterday we had the honor of grooming two very special little ones—meet Yo-Yo and Yoshi!
You might recognize them from the local community pages, where they were posted as lost/stray dogs running the neighborhood. A kind samaritan in the neighborhood noticed them wandering for about a week and was finally able to catch them. Sadly, no one has come forward to claim them, and based on some circumstances, it’s possible they may have been backyard breeder dumps. We’re hoping that’s not the case, but either way, they’re safe now.

The good news? Two wonderful people have stepped up to give them loving homes, vetting, and the grooming they so badly needed. I’m so honored that these new owners trusted me to care for these babies and make them comfortable again.

Poor Yo-Yo was completely matted from head to toe, so we had to shave her short for comfort and a fresh start—and she turned out absolutely adorable! She seemed to know the whole time that we were helping her. Sweet Yoshi just needed a good bath and a little trim, so we kept his beautiful natural coat longer.

Both of them were absolute angels on the table, and our hearts are so full knowing they’re now being cared for the way they deserve. We can’t wait to pamper these babies again!

Theo, is that you in there? We finally got to see his adorable little face—no more hiding behind all that fluff! That underbite smile is just too cute for words. 😬 We gave him a shorter cut for summer, but kept that classic teddy bear look. Doesn’t he look like a pristine young man? We sure loved pampering him today and hope he enjoyed his spa day as much as we did!🛁🫧🧼

Hi everyone!
I hope you’re all having a wonderful Monday so far. I just wanted to hop on and apologize — I wasn’t able to go live this weekend for our Summer Basket Giveaway like I had planned.

Summer is always a busy time, and this weekend was especially hectic for me. I had my family reunion on Saturday, and then I completely forgot I had not one, but two baby showers on Sunday! Needless to say, it ended up being a very full (and chaotic) weekend, and I just couldn’t find the time to go live.

That being said, I went ahead and did the giveaway off-camera and I’m announcing the winner here instead!

🎉 Congratulations to Anna ♥️ Bromwick! 🎉 Anna Bromwich
I hope you and Theo enjoy the summer basket filled with goodies and love. Just message me whenever you’re able to pick it up!

Thank you again to everyone who participated — I truly wouldn’t be here without your support. I feel so blessed to be able to do these giveaways and give back to the amazing community that continues to support me. You guys mean the world to me. 💛

Dolly P came in for her very first groom and did amazing! I mean, she’s a Golden—how can you go wrong with that breed? Her mom loves the natural look, so we focused on getting all that undercoat out, adding some moisture back in, and bringing her coat back to life. She’s now soft, smooth, and absolutely glowing! Welcome to the Paw Spa, Dolly P—you’re pure beauty!

How could you not love Bonnie?! This girl melts my heart. Just the sweetest soul. It’s so hard to groom her because I just want to snuggle her the whole time.😭 Poor Bonnie is an older gal and has some bladder control issues, so we take her nice and short to keep her clean/comfortable. 🫶🏻
