If your dog dreads the salon, the room was probably the problem, not the clippers. In a van parked off Gaston or Abrams there is one dog and one groomer. No kennel doors, nothing barking, no cages and no car ride to get there.

The short answer
In Lakewood it's one dog and one groomer in a quiet van in your driveway. No kennels, no drop-off, no other dogs barking. Baths start at $75, full grooms at $130, and the 75214 trip fee is $25. A van is on Lakewood streets most days of the week.
Your exact trip fee is confirmed before anything is scheduled.
The dogs loved the groomer that came out — they went straight to her with no problems. My youngest has never been groomed and there were no issues, even though PetSmart told me two days ago they couldn't groom her because of how she acted with the clippers.
My Bandit and Bambi have never looked better. Noel is especially talented and super sweet. I will book with her again.
Aimee T. · Google reviewBest grooming we've had in the 11 years with our standard poodle! Dominic was awesome!
Michaella R. · Google reviewI will be requesting Ashley. She is awesome, quick and does excellent work. Love how she sends progress pics. My before and after photos are too cute.
Sherrill W. · Google reviewA striking share of our Lakewood book is dogs who did badly somewhere else first. One customer came to us two days after a big-box store turned her youngest away at the clippers. In the van, that same dog walked straight to her groomer. That’s the pattern here, not the exception. A salon is a dozen dryers, kennel doors, and strange dogs telling each other how stressed they are. A van parked on your block off Gaston or in a Junius Heights driveway is one dog, one groomer, and quiet. Labs and goldens fill the 75214 calendar, and lake-day de-shedding keeps us busy all summer.
Wash, blow-out, nails, ears, and a finishing spritz, in the van, in your driveway. Sized and priced by coat type, quoted up front.
Bath package plus the haircut: breed-standard or your call. Matting-safe for doodles, de-shed for double coats, always one-on-one.
Quiet van, no kennels, no car ride, the calm setup anxious cats and senior dogs actually tolerate. Gentle handling, extra breaks.
Gaston Avenue over to Abrams, with Lakewood Heights, Junius Heights and Wilshire Heights in between. 75214.
Zip codes we serve in Lakewood: 75214.
Olivia at Poochies is the absolute best!! She was so patient with my corgi who is notoriously difficult with grooming. She did not give up on him. I cannot thank her enough!!
Usually yes. Most dogs labelled difficult are reacting to the room, not the groom, and the van removes the room. We’ll be straight with you on the phone if a dog needs more than a quiet van, and a bite history is the one thing we can’t work around.

Never. There are no kennels in the van. Your dog is with one groomer from start to finish and goes straight back inside when the groom is done.
Within about 48 hours if there’s any coat length. Lake water sets tangles into mats quickly, and a normal groom now beats a shave-down later.
Your driveway or legal street parking. Our vans work these curbs daily, including the tight blocks in Junius Heights, so you don’t need to arrange anything.
