Roanoke is in Virginia, in the Southeast, where summers are long, hot and humid, winters are mild, and afternoon thunderstorms and the hurricane season from June to November can change plans at short notice. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Roanoke follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Nikki has been grooming our dogs for 10+ years and has always been great to work with. I would recommend her to anyone!

Have been letting Nicki groom Our Cocker Spaniel for around 9 years, she's great in all aspects, Bear always knows when he's on his way to her shop and he can't hardly wait to see her and her dog's. I highly recommend her to all.

I took my Australian shepherd for a trim and clean. I asked the groomer to trim about half an inch off the cut, and cut the butt short. The groomer mentioned the trimmers are not good for the coat, which is true. So I just asked her to a scissor cut. I picked him up and while his butt was cut in a style I don’t like, it was still well done. However it wasn’t until later that I saw that they had close- shaved his sanitary area and his stomach nearly to his front legs. This was after they mentioned they would use scissors and not clippers, and it being common knowledge shouldn’t shave double coated dogs unless needed. Now his skin will be severely irritated, and will take nearly half the year to grow back to its original length. And frankly, it just does not look good.

Our dog had been going here for almost 2 years. He is 14 and has never had any groomer report that he does not do well, in fact he has always been complimented. When we picked him up last time she mentioned that he wouldn't let her trim his front nails. We thought this was odd and he let us feel around on his paws and didn't flinch, but didn't think much about it. Within a couple of hours his eye was bloodshot red. We took him to the emergency vet and they said that it was caused from too much pressure being applied to his head/eye during grooming which basically caused his eye to bruise. There is absolutely not reason too much pressure should have been applied. We starting wondering of the reason he wouldn't let her trim his nails was because he was mad about whatever was done to his head... I have emailed and tried calling but do not get a response. I have not gone to the shop because I won't be able to hold my tongue. After doing some research I found two others that this has happened within the past year and they both said she was rude to them and claimed she was not at fault for what happened to their dog. I do not advise anyone take their dog there unless you want

Nickey takes excellent care of my new Giant Schnauzer puppy, with all his energy and inexperience on the grooming table. She is a sensitive, patient, and incredibly skilled groomer! She also gives my labradoodle a perfect groom, tailored just exactly to my requests. I wouldn't trust any other groomer!
