The Barkington

"I was so pleased to learn that the owners of Barkington( Chris and Lourdes) will come to your home to trim your dog’s nails, express his anal glands, and clean his ears by appointment. I could not be more pleased with the results of my appointment. My pup, Augie, a miniature dachshund, usually requires 3 people to hold him down while he freaks out over getting his nail trim. Chris and Lourdes( with their inexhaustible love and patience) took the time to get to know Augie and make him feel secure and not threatened. They did a wonderful job with a difficult client( that would be Augie, not me) and I can’t thank them enough. I am usually not someone who writes reviews, but these folks are special and truly deserve recognition. I would enthusiastically recommend the Barkington for any daycare and grooming needs for your pup."

"Such a great experience. They were able to get me in the next day and gave Zoe the best grooming she has every had. It is very tough to find a good groomer that can handle the husky undercoat and they did an amazing job. Will be scheduling routine appointments for both my pups."

"First time getting my 1 year old mutt groomed. We found out quickly that he is stranger reactive and scared.. the groomer and the staff were wonderful and completed the job professionally, even with difficulty! I will most certainly go back again once my boy is through his training! My little tiger!"

"Shirley Dove is an exceptional groomer. She has been grooming my Pomeranians for years. She has been knowledgeable beyond the scope of grooming. I have recommended her to my friends with various dog breeds ( large and small) and have received exceptional feedback."

"I had a wonderful experience at The Barkington. Shirley is a wonderful groomer. My dog got his best haircut yet and was in such a fun, good mood when I picked him up! He was not overly thirsty, which is a problem I've had at other places, and I could tell he had a fun, good day at their facility. Shirley goes above and beyond to make sure each clients dog is well taken care of and gives them the attention they need off and on her grooming table! We will certainly be back, thank you for taking care of my pup!"
