Good groomers in PG County? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Raja's Mom · 08-08-2007, 08:05 AM

I'm in the College Park area and very tired of dealing with Petsmart

Any good groomers in the area? I'm hoping to find a private business, not another big retail chain store - but any suggestions of great places are appreciated!

While I'm in the regional forum I'll indulge in some self-promotion

I sent you a PM I grew up in PG county and have a great groomer who lives in Burtonsville.

I know what you mean...I have never taken mine to PetSmart. I go to Look Sharp Grooming....I love it there. The groomer(and owner) is Glory-Ann Pigarut She also shows dogs (Japenese Chins & MinPins) and she has become not only my groomer but my friend as well. She is also currently getting ready to expand...Now I'm saying all this, juicing her up but I really think it may be a little too far from you. She's in Accokeek but if it were a day your were off or on a Saturday, I'm telling you it's worth the drive.
Her number is 301-207-0077
15638 Livingston Road Suite 11
Accokeek, MD 20607

Did Glory Ann used to work at a pet shop in Camp Springs? I used to go there a lot for tatoo's and stuff...a friend used a champion of hers for stud once...
Best wishes..

hmm, I'll have to ask her. She was a referral of mine from my Vet at Coolridge Animal Hospital and that's in Camp Springs,Md. She brings my vet food(she sells the organic stuff) so maybe...and She lives in Clinton so I wouldn't be surprised if that's her. I'll have to ask. I've been going to her for almost a year now.

I found something interesting if anyone else is interested... Dog-on Groomers, I'm not sure if it's a company or just this one women, but she drives right to your home in her converted grooming van and runs an extension cord to your house for power. Somehow she already has enough water & all other supplies in the van. Grooming takes 30-45 mins and your pups don't even need to leave home!

Wow...all this information was good to know. I was thinking of having PetSmart groom my baby, Yumi, when the time came.

LuvMyYorkies2 (Yolanda): I also take my Yumi to Coolridge. Any ideas on training or doggie sitting? I was going to use PetSmart for that too. Would love any advice if better options exist. I want nothing but the best for my pup, she is so small and requires so much TLC. I think we all can agree on that need across the board

Princess -
Wow! Small world. I have to take Diva in next week for an exam to determine if she is pregnant or not. How do you like Coolridge. Todd is hilarious and everyone else is so nice... I've been using them for years. I have a 12 year old cat so I just added my yorkies to the mix. YOu'll have to share pics of your baby.

I went to the PetSmart in Waldorf, MD when Diva was about 7 months and I had Kathy as an instructor. It was very helpful...Diva has retained all(or most), of what she learned in that class. I was going to take a break and maybe put her in the next level but haven't just yet.....all in all, Petsmart was pretty good....
