Testimonials

On 1/8/2026 The Carter Family had this to say:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely outstanding experience! Romeo just had the most amazing grooming experience with Misty at Tammy’s Dog Services, and I truly cannot say enough wonderful things. From the moment we arrived, Misty was warm, patient, and incredibly skilled. Romeo can be a bit particular, but she handled him with such calm confidence and genuine care—it was clear he felt safe, comfortable, and loved. When I picked him up, I was blown away. Romeo received a perfect teddy bear cut for Labradoodles—his coat was soft, beautifully shaped, his face was absolutely adorable, and he smelled amazing without being overpowering. The attention to detail was outstanding, and he looked polished yet still fluffy and natural. He walked out happy, relaxed, and strutting like he knew he looked good. I also want to highlight Tammy, who is an incredible owner and such a helpful, supportive presence. Romeo actually graduated from Tammy’s training school, and the care, guidance, and professionalism she provides truly shows in every part of her business. It’s clear this is a place built on knowledge, love, and genuine dedication to dogs and their families. If you’re looking for a grooming and training team that treats your dog like their own and delivers top-tier results, Tammy’s Dog Services—with Misty—is absolutely the place to go. We are beyond grateful and will 100% be returning. Highest recommendation! Testimonial written by The Carter Family on this site.

Took our nearly 13 year old girl in for a bath!! They were so kind and patient with us. Needed somewhere new for Angel girl to get bathed as it’s hard for her to stand for long periods and we had a great experience with Tammie’s!! We will be returning!

On 12/2/2025 KRISTIN Carr had this to say:
Tammy, Kim, and the whole staff did a wonderful job of taking care of our 4 dogs while we were on vacation. We received daily texts and pictures to keep us updated. The facility is quite amazing. Our dogs had their own suite and a huge area outside to run around and play. We knew our dogs were in good hands while we were away. I can't recommend Tammie's Boarding and Daycare enough. Thank you for taking sure great care of our babies!

On 11/2/2025 Candice had this to say:
I am giving a 5 stars for the doggies that come in that touch my heart. Volunteering with the fur babies have always brightened my day. Each one has a special place in my life.

I have always enjoyed being around dogs. Learning how to communicate with them and train them. I have been involved in rescuing & training dogs for over 10 years in my community. I earned my Karen Pryor Certificate in Teaching Positive Training. Watching the transformation is just amazing results. I just do not offer training. I also offer Daycare & Boarding at my facility.

My Promise:
I promise to make parents happy with their dog. Life with a dog can be challenging and having the right skill set to help you get through your fur baby's life. A better bond and correct enrichment techniques to correct your dogs bad behavior all help to achieve that goal.
