Not only will your pup be ready for the stage, they will be in the best hands in the business. Great advice, extra care, and real concern. Heather has the experience and knowledge to share solid advice, should you be ready to hear it.Our CKC is lucky to go to The Bark Side.

I love Heather! Better yet my dog, Sugar seems to enjoy her finishing groom. She hates getting in the car to go but loves showing off her perfect bath and groom from Heather when we get home. Bark Side is the best!

I have been taking my pug terrier mix to Heather for past six months. I love everything about this place.... the groomer, the bather, and the beautiful way Charles looks when I come to pick him up. Not only does he get a great bath from Stephen, who is so gentle and loving with the dogs, Heather does meticulous grooming. She also is very good about answering questions you may have. I highly recommend this grooming shop. Charles loves his spa day.

LOTS of capitalizations? I'll be happy to send the entire text string to Yelp, Heather. I capitalized one word - "especially" when referring to how you had lambasted me in front of another customer. If Yelp reach out to me after this post, I certainly will share our entire email and text strings! You're disingenuous and untruthful. While some things you said were true (how happy I was to have him back with a "good" groomer vs. the terrible grooms he received after we relocated), the rest of your response was untrue. What would I have had to be defensive of? You're the one who called me cruel (or whatever word semantics you'd like to claim). You should have been, and were, defensive of the wording you used because you didn't want to give my dog the cut he'd historically received from you - and which I asked for. No ethics about it, Heather. You mentioned nothing about "skin cancer", etc. Your untruths just get bigger and bolder! I didn't care that his hair was a bit longer than usual when I brought him back in to see you after a period of time, I was just happy his head and tail were shaped correctly. The second time, however, I wanted him cut as you had previously always cut him. Like I said, "Good groomer, bad attitude"

Not accepting new clients 1.5 years into Covid is unacceptable. If you are going to operate as a business in this community, you should make yourself open to all the members of the community... not just the people (and dogs) who have been to you in the past 6 months.

They are amazing! Heather is so great with the dogs, our boxer always comes home smelling so good and is so clean. Heather's assistant is amazing too. The shop is so cute and clean. Heather is always on time and our pup is ready to go when she says she will be done. We highly recommend The Bark Side !

My 4 month old Coton de Tulear puppy had his first grooming with Heather a month ago. She is very sensitive to puppy needs, is flexible with appointment times when necessary, does a beautiful job, and my puppy (who I was afraid would freak out at the experience) clearly had a fine time in Heather's capable hands. I highly recommend The Bark Side.

I have a fairly difficult dog to groom. Heather has been extremely helpful in managing her anxiety and making the experience better for her. I highly recommend this groomer.

This was a difficult decision to make...I had taken my dogs here for years. But I recently got a rescue and took him for first grooming. Heather reported that she had worked at and with shelter dogs. But with my dog, who got spooked when she attempted to expel his anal glands. Unfortunately, my dog turned and growled and that ended that grooming session. I was told she would not trim his nails with me holding dog and refused to ever attempt to groomer him again. Lucky for me and my dogs they now go to a groomer who is understanding and patient with dogs and especially shelter dogs that may get nervous while being groomed. Neither of my dogs have had issues with new groomer who is soft spoken and patient. I know Heather is a good groomer but does not have the temperament or patience to deal with dogs that get nervous or anxious, as many shelter dogs do.

We have 2 dogs. A Springer and Cocker Spaniel. They spend a lot of time outdoors. Heather does a fantastic job not only cleaning them but trimming their hair so that their coats don't get so tangled. She also modifies the cut depending upon the seasons. Our dogs really like her and her workers. The dogs are always happy after they come back and want to show off how pretty they are. We love this place!
