Praise the Paw Dog Grooming

Jennifer is by far the most wonderful dog groomer/​dog lover I have ever met!
When I first read her reviews and tried to make an appointment I was a bit put off by having to wait 4 – 6 weeks to get our pups into see her. So much so that we found another groomer. After a couple of decent but not amazing experiences elsewhere I decided to give Jennifer a call.
So we spoke and I waited about a month before I could meet her in person to get our two Yorkie mixes into her shop for a groom.
From the first moment walking into her shop, you feel the love and warmth each person in the shared grooming space has for their craft and the animals they serve. Jennifer is a total sweetheart who absolutely loves each and every dog that walks in the door to see her. It is amazing to see how genuinely she adores each four-​legged creature who she meets.
We have been in to see her for 4 cuts and baths and each time we just love her a little more. Jennifer is just amazing with how she handles our boys. She showers them with so much love and sweetness the entire time they are with her.
Jennifer makes our boys look so adorable and their cuts are just perfect. She is detail oriented and takes her time making them look great. She seems to really care how they look, and takes our feedback and guidance with grace as she helps style out our little pups.
Praise the Paw is truly the most perfect name for a grooming shop that handles their animals with such great love and adoration. The dogs are never crated. And neither is the friendly cat or adorable pig who happen to belong to the shop. The animals are kept safe behind the locked doors of the workstations and they employ a double door system when entering the shop to keep all the animals safely inside.
When we drop our boys off we leave with the total confidence that they are being loved, cared for, are kept safe, and we will return to them looking adorable and sparkling clean.
Call Jennifer to schedule and appointment and if you have to wait a few weeks, just do it. You’ll be so glad you did.
Praise the Paw and Jennifer have earned my trust, and total Praise!!!

Jen and Carrey are so patient and loving with our dog! We have a one year old Newfie who is a handful, and is super scared of the dryer. We couldn’t be more grateful for Jen and Carrey! They continue to work with our dog and are helping him overcome his fear of grooming. I feel completely at peace leaving my dog in their hands! They are also really knowledgeable and give me lots of helpful at-​home grooming tips, to keep my pup’s skin and fur as healthy as can be! Love praise the Paw!

I take my little neurotic terrier mix here to get her nails done and they always do an amazing, quick job! She’s been rejected from tons of other groomers for being hard to handle, sadly, but Praise the Paw and JK Grooming do magic and get it done! You guys rock!

Jennifer is wonderful– we just moved to Denver and needed to find a gentle (understanding) groomer for our long hair Chi! Our Vida is very snotty and NOT a lover of anything with a heartbeat. Jennifer and team made her feel comfortable and she was on her best behavior. Vida enjoyed herself and will continue to be back!

Jennifer is GREAT! Our little guy would fight and squirm when we tried to do his nails. I finally decided to try Praise the Paw. She handled him so gently and with confidence, and he didn’t make a peep. Best money I’ve ever spent! So happy we found her!

Can’t say enough about Jennifer! She the best and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent and compassionate groomer for your pooch!

After a few weird experiences with PetSmart grooming, I bought a pair of scissors and my poor Shih Tzu would grin and bear it like your mom when she’d cut your bangs. Because I love my dog, and I love value for the dollar, I did some research and found Jennifer. I went in with a sloppy, home-​groomed mutt and came home with a happy work of art for a great price. Jennifer/​Praise the Paw gets ALL the stars.

I can’t say enough how wonderful Jennifer is! My dog, Oso (a Cavalier King Charles), has been seeing Jennifer for about two years and we absolutely love her. I know when I drop him off he is in good hands (cage free environment!) and I will not be disappointed with her work. We will be a LIFETIME client!

The staff here is amazing. We came for a walk-​in nail trim for our dachshund and everyone was so warm and kind. They greeted us right away, squeezed our pup in for a pawdicure, treated him to an animal cookie and $ 10 later we were on our way. There’s an office kitty up front that was very friendly as well. This will be our new go-​to spot for nail trims.

I can’t say enough about how wonderful my experience has been with PTP and Jennifer. My old pup Daisy has been seeing her regularly for about a year and a half. Jennifer genuinely cares about her clients (human and canine) and is exceptionally skilled at her craft. We will be lifetime clients!

Jennifer needs to work on her customer service rather than being condescending and rude to customers. Look somewhere else if you don’t want to be treated like trash.

Jennifer is an exceptional groomer and even more wonderful human being. My dog, Spencer — a Yorkie — is a bit on the shy side around strangers and hates getting groomed. Jenn makes it a priority to make him feel as comfortable as possible — no cages, lots of love and a few treats — and I always come back to a happy and well-​groomed dog. She really does treat every single dog with personalized and thoughtful care.
Her schedule is PACKED so make sure to book your appointments well in advance. She is worth every penny!

This place is fantastic! You can trust that your dogs are in good hands at this grooming salon.
My Bassett hound & Cavalier King Charles left the groomers clean, shiny & happy. Affordable price & lovely staff. What isn’t to love! I highly recommend this doggy salon:)

I absolutely love taking my 10 year old pup Dublin to Jennifer. Her cage free loving environment is like no other. Dublin used to fear going to get groomed and now she actually enjoys it. Jennifer takes such good care of her and loves her like one of her own. The haircut is always amazing and she is so creative. I will NEVER take my pups anywhere else! Thank you Jennifer. the JORDAN PACK loves you!

Jennifer is absolutely fantastic! Not only was I completely satisfied with the grooming itself, you can rest assured that your pup is in caring hands while in her care. Jennifer has a complete cage free environment and you can tell that she takes great care to get to know and remember each dog she works with. I had taken my dog to Jennifer just once when months later, she recognized him at our mutual dog sitters house and even remembered his name!
Given the reviews, it’s no surprise her schedule is pretty packed, but Jennifer always does what she can to get my dog in as soon as possible. We even missed an appointment last week and she was able to squeeze us in just 4 days later.
Highly recommend Jennifer and Praise the Paw!

Jennifer does a great job grooming our 14 year old yellow lab. She gets the 5 stars for the extra care that she takes looking out for our older dogs health issues. She is gentle with Roxy and makes sure that Roxie gets help climbing up any steps. Roxie is usually stressed when getting groomed. Not the case with Jennifer. She comes through the process in a lot calmer manner when being groomed by Jennifer.

Jennifer is absolutely, without a doubt the BEST groomer we have ever been privileged to know.
My sweet Greta is a Newdle (Newfoundland/​Poodle) and her long, curly locks are a serious challenge to groom, even for an expert. The first time we visited, I was a little concerned that Greta might be nervous, as she can be kind of shy. But upon my return to pick her up, she was standing on the grooming table (by her own volition, not hooked) happy as can be with her tail wagging and mouth open and tongue hanging out as if she was smiling. She was one happy dog. I was so relieved to see her so at ease! Jennifer absolutely loves Greta, and the feeling is mutual. As soon as we pull into the parking lot, Greta starts freaking out and she can’t get to Jennifer fast enough to give her kisses. There is just nothing better than to see someone who kisses your dog, hugs her and greets her saying, «I love you, too Greta!»
As for her appearance after grooming, well, it is truly fantastic. Jennifer is a perfectionist. Even the long hair on Greta’s tail is cut exactly evenly. You could not get a better cut in a human salon. After grooming, Greta is always soft as a teddy bear and smells wonderful, but not too perfumey, which is perfect for me, as I have chronic migraines.
My 12 year old sweet old man George will be visiting Jennifer for a spa treatment soon, and I am sure he will come back looking extremely dapper. It takes a lot for me to trust George to anyone, as he has some cervical pain that requires a gentle touch. But I trust Jennifer implicitly, and I know she will make great friends with my George.
Believe it or not, there are 2 other dogs in our family, and I plan to have them visit Jennifer soon as well. And I don’t care what she costs, because her loving care is worth every penny.
P. S. I always try to arrive a few minutes early, as parking can be a little bit of a challenge. I can usually find a spot in the lot, but it is quite small, and there is the odd occasion when I will have to find a spot elsewhere. It takes a few minutes just to read all the «don’t ever park here,» or «only park here on Tuesdays,» or «don’t park here unless the moon is full and all the planets are in alignment» signs. :)

I am so glad I found this wonderful place. Our dog Gucci (my wife named him lol) was in dire need of a wash and haircut along with all other services included. I searched for hours on end to find a good grooming place in Denver, and am I glad I actually spent the time looking!
The staff here is amazing. They are always cheerful and treat your dog like a human being, which is a big plus in my book.
For a total of $ 45, Gucci came out looking like a brand new pup. He smelled amazing, nails were trimmed right on point and very even. He also has very rough hair and dry skin but they managed to give him the exact hair cut I asked for. Nothing less nothing more and that really put a smile on my face. I love when people listen to what you actually say instead of just doing what they want.
Jennifer was amazing. Gucci was so happy in her hands and he usually doesn’t cope well with new people. I have been here a total of 3 times and each time the staff has exceeded my expectations. Thank you for running such a great establishment, passion for animals just oozes out of these people. Try them out, you won’t be disappointed nor will you go elsewhere!!!

I’ve hopped around a few places in Denver to get my Maltese-​mix groomed, but no place has really wowed me until now. Jennifer is so incredibly personable, and you can tell that she actually loves what she does.
The shop is located in an unassuming little office building in Cherry Creek, but don’t be fooled. You won’t want to take your dog anywhere else. They only do one dog at a time, so there is no leaving your dog at the groomers for 5 hours while they’re crated and pissed off half that time. Mochi went in smelly and unevenly cut and came out smelling fantastic and looking sharp. If you’re looking for the real deal, look no further.
P. S. Make sure you put SOUTH Madison into your GPS. I ended up in some random part of Cherry Creek a few blocks away. Good thing I was early…

Jennifer rocks.
My dog was stinky and when that happens he looks like Nick Nolte’s infamous mug shot and we just can’t have that. So I went to my trusted friend Unilocal to see what business were in the area and found Praise the Paw and couldn’t have been happier with my experience!
Located right near Cherry Creek and in a business building that you would think would only have doctors offices and such is where PTP (I just created an acronym for them, awesome) is located. She is by appointment only and we went on Saturday morning so Operation Clean the Pooch could begin.
I loved that she sat down with us for a few minutes before I left to get a feel for what kind of cut I was looking for. My little Lincoln is quite skiddish and she held him in her lap and got to know him and gave him a belly rub to earn his trust and what do you know, soon they were besties. Two hour later, she was done and the homeless look was gone – my dog looked quite dapper like a gentleman! If you’re looking for groomer, I recommend her added bonus– she gives you $ 5 off your first visit!
