Tia’s Doggie Spa

I have been taking my doggie to Tia’s for over a year.
At any previous groomer, my older dog would shake, and shake, and shake upon arriving.
When we arrive at Tia’s, my dog is actually wagging his tail! Tia greets us in the lobby, asks us what we want, and talks to my dog. She definitely seems to have that «special touch» with dogs. When I pick him up, he always looks wonderful! She does a fantastic job!!!
Highly Recommend!
Thank you Tia!

Tia and Preston are the best! My little sweetie, Sunny always comes back from Tia, happy and beautiful! I know this is a good place because Sunny has had a lot of anxiety in the past from other groomers. The theme bandana is a cute touch! Thanks Tia’s Doggie Spa! We will be back.

Tia’s dog salon is the best! My old dog Rusty did amazing and looked great when he came out. They even sent us the sweetest card! We will be taking him back for his next grooming!

I’ve been taking my two pups to Tia and Preston for about 5 years now. I just love them. My pups always leave clean, cute, and super happy. My little boy dog is so nervous every time in the car but as soon as we walk in he knows where he is and is just so happy to see them. The best groomers I’ve ever had and I’ve been taking my oldest kid to get clipped every 2 months for 24 years!

I’ve been bringing my very wiggly, very energetic, very bouncy little terrier to Tia’s for a few years now. I had previously written a review under their old location in Totem Lake, but now that they’ve moved, it is time for a new one.
Before I began taking my dog to Tia’s, I had been told by a previous groomer that she was «difficult». I would pick her up at that groomer and she would be hoarse from barking and would be clearly very stressed, the cut would be uneven and messy, and she’d sometimes have little nicks from wiggling while the groomer was trying to work. I had written it off as my dog being quirky and bouncy, but eventually I got so worried that I decided to try a new groomer.
I am so very glad that I found Tia. Whatever she does, it really, really works for my dog. Penny always comes home looking very cute. I have never seen a nick anywhere on her, and she doesn’t seem hoarse or stressed when I pick her up. She is just– happy. Clean, and adorable, and happy.
Preston is great too– he is very welcoming and professional at the front desk and when we speak on the phone.
I generally take my dog to be groomed about every three months, and spend around $ 75. It is well worth the price!

Raz had the best hair cut ever. He was so happy at Tia’s. They gave him exceptional care and comfort. I highly recommend them for your next grooming.

Moved to Washington 5 months ago, have been searching the area to take my precious pet to get groomed the way I want him to be groomed, not the way the groomer thinks best, Read so many disappointing reviews on groomers in the area, saw the new opening of The Doggie Spa in Houghton (Kirkland), decided to give it a try… Tia met my BichonPoo mix in the lobby, she asked what I wanted, 3 hours later my best friend is happy and I am even happier. I love the fact they specialize on small breeds only, Definitely my groomer of choice now.
Thank You Tia & Preston

I have been taking my labradoodle Lucy Bear to Tia’s doggie spa since she was a puppy and at the old location. 5 years later, I still go back to her! Worth the extra $ for sure! They are clean, on time every time and professional. She does an exceptional job on Lucy! They care about the animals and the services they provide, making sure the animals are healthy as well. Eastside Vet actually had recommended Tia’s to me, as they had checked out her salon. I have tried a few other dog salons over the years, but every time I have a bad experience!!! (cuts, missing her ears plucked, not expressing her glands, actually got fleas from one) So, I have gone running back to Tia’s! Lucy’s ears get plucked completely, all mats removed, her coat and cut is flawless! She has never been cut or had a razor burn. Her nails get cut and sanded down and she even gets a teeth brushing that helps her breath for a few weeks following. Lucy loves Tia’s and it’s the only salon she doesn’t try to run for the door, actually follows Tia back. Dogs are great character judges :) Go to Tia’s!

Terrible the hack job was unbelievable not professional. $ 400 for two dogs! Really terrible!

I don’t normally like to knock a business, particularly one that gets fairly good reviews, but I was not impressed with this spa. First, I was given close to a 3-​hour window. I don’t like to warehouse my dog while waiting for her groom. The charges kept adding up — $ 5 for this, $ 5 for that. After three hours I picked up my dog with a very unimpressive grooming and for $ 83, along with a clipper burn (which I know can happen). That was one of the most expensive grooms and one of the least impressive. I think too often groomers begin to believe all the wonderful things they read about themselves and forget that they should do their best every time. .. regardless of age, size, or breed. Sadly I won’t go there again.
