Testimoinals
Elizabeth took extra time to get to know my dog before her appointment, allowing me to bring her in after hours the week before to get her comfortable. She went slow and gentle with my Nervous Nellie pit bull and made sure she was not too stressed out, even adjusting the services to accommodate what was best for my little girl. Thank you for your extra time and care!
This was the first time we have been TRULY HAPPY when we left a grooming appointment! Elizabeth listened to all of our wants and personal preferences in our pup’s grooming. Our English Setter does not generally enjoy bath time or grooming, but he was happy and at ease almost immediately! I am so thrilled to have found an amazing groomer
Paws and Pamper - Missoula's Finest Dog Grooming
I've frequented several grooming establishments in Missoula and if I were to let my dog choose her preference, it is unequivocally Paws and Pamper. My miniature Schnauzer loves her grooming appointments. Elizabeth is a top notch groomer and highly intuitive. My dog loves her and that's what matters most!
Awesome groom
She did a amazing job on my lab/pit mix. My pit can be difficult to groom due to not liking being groomed. The more times she has gone to paws and pampers the better she gets with being groomed.
My dog is always so happy and well groomed when Liz gets done. One of the only groomers in town that can really clean and de-hair an oily Chesapeake Bay Retriever! Happy dog!
It's too bad that Deuce cannot type! I'm sure that he would love to tell everyone on FB how wonderful Elizabeth has been to him. When he had to go to our former groomer, he would shake badly and try to hide under the car seat to avoid having to enter the facility. Since bringing him to Elizabeth he is a Zen dog! Paws and Pamper is a very professional shop that is clean and welcoming. Thank you Elizabeth!
