Grooming at your pet's pace

Owner Chelsea Anderson has worked with animals since 2015, first as a dog walker and pet sitter, then at a veterinary office. She has been grooming since 2017 and opened Pooch Purrfect in 2021.

Nervous dogs, seniors, rescues, and first-timers get the extra time they need. If a pet gets too stressed to finish safely, we stop and call you.

Sharing Thanksgiving with your pet

A little plain food mixed into their usual dinner is fine. Most of what's on the table isn't, and neither is the trash, so take it out often.

If your pet gets into something, call your vet or ASPCA Poison Control at (888) 426-4435. These tips come from the ASPCA.

On their plate

  • A bite of turkey, boneless and fully cooked
  • A few pieces of sweet potato
  • A few green beans

Keep off it

  • Turkey bones
  • Anything made with onion or garlic
  • Gravy and stock made from bouillon cubes
  • Raw bread dough and raw cookie or cake batter
  • Chocolate, and desserts sweetened with xylitol

Rated 4.8 out of 5 on Google, from nearly 300 reviews.

Chelsea has been by far the best groomer my pup has had in her 12 years of life.

A client since 2021

  • We have 2 rescues who can be nervous in new environments. The staff immediately started loving on our two boys! They barely noticed when I left.

    Owner of two rescue dogs

  • I also enjoy their personal touches by putting on a themed bandana at each visit. They’re super cute and match the current holiday/season.

    Teddy’s owner, a bernedoodle who has been coming for about 3 years

  • I like that they send updates on how my dog did during her appointment or things I need to know.
