"My little guys have been regular customers since it's opening. Joanna and her team are amazing."
— G. Charles Wright

Happy Tails has been a fixture of York Boulevard in Eagle Rock for years — a neighborhood groomer that regulars return to again and again. The team around Joanna has built a reputation for listening: to what owners want, and to what dogs need.

Dogs that were once anxious with other groomers come out calm and happy. Senior dogs are handled with the extra patience they deserve. First-timers leave with a groom so clean, owners say they're cuter than when they dropped off.

That's what the reviews say — and the dogs seem to agree.

I am so happy I found Happy Tails grooming — I would give them 10 stars if I could. Joanna did such a beautiful job on my long haired pup Skitch. She listened to all my requests and followed through beautifully. Skitch was very happy, which had not been the case with other groomers.

Best groomer out there! They were sweet and so quick with my older pup — did a full body trim and my dog was so happy when I picked him up. He looks fabulous. They're real dog lovers and they are artists with shears!

So appreciative of our neighborhood groomer Happy Tails. My girl is a senior and needs a bit of a gentle touch, and she always leaves adorable and happy.

My dogs have been regular customers at Happy Tails since it's opening. Joanna and her team are amazing at clipping their paw-nails, expressing their anal glands, bathing them and all-around cleaning them up.

It's a great place to bring your pet. My Akita always comes back clean and pampered. They do an excellent job. JoJo is always respectful of your fur babies. My Mitsuha seems to know them well and goes right in.

It was a fabulous experience with Happy Tails. They all are very friendly and professional. Take care of my dog just like human kids. I highly appreciate.

How do I know what to expect for my breed?

Call ahead and describe your dog — breed, coat type, and what you're looking for. The team will walk you through what the groom involves and give you an honest price range before you come in.

Do you handle senior or anxious dogs?

Yes — Happy Tails is known for a gentle touch with senior dogs and those who've had bad experiences elsewhere. Multiple reviewers specifically mention this. Let the team know upfront so they can plan accordingly.

Credit cards, debit cards, and cash are all accepted. One reviewer notes cash is preferred — calling ahead to confirm is a good idea.

How long does a groom typically take?

Can you handle large breeds like Akitas?

Yes. Reviewers bring everything from small dogs to Akitas. Call to discuss your dog's size and coat — the team is upfront about whether they're a good fit for your specific pup.

What should I bring for the first visit?

Your dog on a leash, any notes about sensitivities or preferences, and vaccination records if you have them. When in doubt, call ahead and the team will tell you exactly what they need.
