Today was my first time trying VIP Salon and I loved it!!! They were super friendly and really took the time to listen to what I wanted for my Yorkie. They also took great care of Molly for the day and I could tell that they love what they do and really love the animals.

VIP Dog Salon is AWESOME!

VIP Dog Salon - Owned and operated by the wonderful husband and wife team of Kandi and Sam Tracey.As far as I am concerned, VIP Dog Salon is the ONLY groomer in town! The shop is so cute and clean. It looks like a fairy tale cottage with a flower garden and flowerboxes on the window sills. It is just as adorable inside, and always looks and smells fresh no matter when you drop in. Kandi, a Certified Master Groomer, has been grooming my dogs for almost two years and I could not believe the difference she has made in them. Don't just take my word for it though. Check out their gallery on their website and see the before and after pics for yourself. http://www.vipdogsalons.com/gallery.html. You will really enjoy the puppy photos, which are the creative work of the gentleman of the team, Sam. You can even download the photos and send them to your dog loving friends... What great service... Perfect grooming and a free puppy portrait at almost every visit! The service and work is phenomenal and the prices are quite reasonable. I have paid twice as much and not had such excellent results, and I have been getting my dogs groomed for over 30 years. Kandi and Sam don't let the dogs languish in cages all day, either. Because of their superb organization and superior expertise, they have my three dogs in and out in about 3 hours! And they always look fantastic! Incredible! Most groomers in the past have had me drop the dogs off at 8 and then, I was lucky if I could pick up by 4. Not here! They focus on your dog with total TLC! Kandi, a very warm, generous, lovely and accomplished young woman, grew up caring for all kinds of animals in her father’s veterinary practice. She is a registered nurse with many years of intensive experience, but has chosen to follow her true heart and work for the love of dogs. I, for one, am so glad. Kandi’s medical expertise and attention to detail have been the catalyst that alerted me to developing health problems in two of my dogs. It was something that looked very minor that nearly became a nightmare. But because Kandi recognized the potential, and gave me the necessary information, I was able to get treatment for them at an early stage in the disease and save them from very unpleasant outcomes. Kandi's big, strong husband, Sam, is a certified canine massage therapist and is amazingly kind and gentle when he bathes and hand dries each dog that comes to the shop. They seem to love his charming Irish accent. You should see him cuddling my little Westie girl. She adores him.Kandi and Sam are the REAL DEAL! We are so lucky to have the absolute best right in our very own hometown. So, if you love your dog, get them an appointment with Kandi and Sam. But be prepared to wait a little longer for that first appointment. Kandi wants your dog to be the only one in the shop on the “get to know you groom.” Amazing! She’s the best. Really!

Kandi & Sam have groomed my dog for nearly 2 years and I have always been extremely satisfied. I cannot say that about many of the other groomers in the area. I took my dog to VIP because another local groomer shaved his hair so closely that it required a vet visit, medication and he has permanent hair loss. Kandi is so gentle and genuinely concerned for the dogs she grooms. My dog always looks like a million when he leaves VIP! I highly recommend VIP Dog Spa!!
