I retired as a professional pet groomer two years ago due to a back injury. Knowing the industry as I do after 22 years, my search for a grooming salon service for my 3 dogs became a challenge, looking for the perfect person to care for my babies. I tried a few different salons but was not satisifed with the service for one reason or another. I, then met a lady, Tomay, at a rescue meet and greet and realized this was the person I had been looking for. I was impressed with her genuine love for animals and knowledge of her profession. Her involvement in the community and dedication to her work are qualities that are important to me. CARING FOR ANIMALS ISN'T JUST A 9 TO 5 JOB...IT IS A PART OF WHO YOU ARE. So, I made an appointment to take my dogs in, a standard poodle, Jazz, a cairn terrier, Molly, and a bichon, Bandit. What a wonderful place Groomingdales of Austin is! Friendly staff, very clean and full of happy dogs. They use a runway system which means that my girls did not have to be in cages...what a wonderful concept. Tomay did a wonderful job on Molly and Bandit. Paige groomed Jazz that day and all my girls looked gorgeous. Absolutely wonderful scissoring work. I had referred my neighbor to GOA, and she was delighted with the way they groomed her senior soft wheaten terrier. She said no one had ever cleaned the ears so well, bothered to dremel her nails or put the time into the grooming to make her look as beautiful as they did. As pet owners we can tell when our pets are happy in any given situation and my girls get excited when we drive up to GOA. I am so happy that they love going to see Tomay and Paige. (Oh, yes, they also have dog food, a boutique and bakery treats... which are so cute). Sorry this is so long, but I feel that everyone needs to know that even a retired groomer, like myself, takes their dogs to GOA. Thank you Tomay and Paige for giving Austin a truly "New experience in pet care". Betty Mason
