ONE-ON-ONE PRIVATE CARE —
Every grooming session is completely private, giving your dog our full attention from start to finish.
We focus on Fear-Free, Stress-Reducing Grooming, creating a calm environment tailored to sensitive or anxious dogs.
Our specialties include Asian Fusion grooming, expert hand-scissoring, and breed-specific styling for small dogs under 20 lbs.
Whether it’s a puppy’s first cut or a senior’s spa day, we deliver precision and comfort — always at your dog’s pace.

BUSINESS OWNER
Joanne, the owner and head groomer at Top Dog, is known for her calm presence and deep intuition with animals.
Clients often say, “She just gets it. Joanne understands what my dog needs even before I do.”
With over 19 years of experience, she offers not only expert grooming but also a sense of trust and ease —for both pets and their people.
At Top Dog, respect goes both ways. Joanne believes that a truly good grooming experience begins with mutual courtesy and clear communication.
She gives each dog her full attention and care—and in return, she hopes for kindness, patience, and understanding from every visitor.
That’s what makes Top Dog more than a grooming salon—it’s a space built on quality, empathy, and mutual respect.
