"The Polished Pooch is our go-to groomer. They do excellent work and are so good with our nervous German Shepherd and our high energy Boxador. We will never go to another groomer. We trust Alex because we know she treats our dogs like they're her own!"
- Nicole W.
"Alex’s professionalism, thoroughness and skill made Buster’s first haircut a breeze (no small feat considering he’s an Old English Sheepdog)! She took time to explain everything to us and was so caring toward our little guy. We couldn’t be happier!"
- Joanna B.
"Our schnauzer went to Alex as a scruffy little pup and came home a handsome little man! He loved his intro to hand-stripping and has an extra proud pep in his step after his polished make-over. Thank you, Alex! Ozzy can’t wait to go back!"
- Heather S.
"Alex is a very caring, professional and gentle groomer. My dogs always look amazing after a visit and I feel so much better leaving them with someone who knows what she's doing and takes time to consider my older girls need for breaks. Can't recommend enough!"
- Debbie R.
