"Bow Tie mobile grooming is the best! Helen really cares about our dogs and takes great care to ensure that they are comfortable and safe. She does a fabulous job with grooming our border collie and our chihuahua Yorkie mix. Our border collie sheds so much and Helen does a great job of deshedding her! She doesn’t rush and is great with communication."

"Helen did an amazing job with my sweet senior pup! I really appreciate that she took her time to not stress him out, as he is older, and he looked so happy and so handsome afterwards. Normally, he gets out of a groom (at a regular grooming facility) and looks tired and stressed out from being in a kennel and dealing with other dogs barking, so having Helen really care to make it an enjoyable and gentle experience for him really made a difference. I can happily say I won’t be trusting anyone else but Helen with my fur baby!"
"I had such a great experience with Helen and grooming my golden retriever, Levi! She was great about walking me through the process of what I wanted to achieve for his bath and haircut! Helen was very sweet and friendly, Levi was so happy afterwards too. I know she took great care of him!! She even sent pictures as he was getting groomed which was so cute!! Thank you Helen!"
