Always a pleasure great team very hard professional always love visiting. My pups don’t want to leave! My apologies for the mix-up, Mike! Thanks for clarifying. Here’s a review from your perspective as the customer, praising In My Paws for their amazing grooming and boarding services for Bella and Molly: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can’t say enough good things about In My Paws and the incredible care they provided for my dogs, Bella and Molly! From the moment I dropped them off for their grooming and boarding, the team was professional, warm, and genuinely passionate about what they do. Bella, my energetic little firecracker, came back looking like a show dog with her coat perfectly groomed and a bounce in her step that showed she was treated like royalty. She clearly had a blast! Molly, my sweet and laid-back girl, was just as well cared for. She can be a bit reserved, but the staff made her feel so comfortable during her boarding stay, and her grooming left her looking absolutely stunning. It’s obvious the team at In My Paws took the time to understand both of my dogs’ personalities and needs, which means the world to me as a pet parent. The facility is spotless, the staff is attentive, and the whole experience was seamless. Bella and Molly came home happy, healthy, and better-looking than ever! Thank you, In My Paws, for treating my girls like family. We’ll definitely be back! •	Mike
