A small spa, big hearts.
Family-run since 2010. Three groomers, forty-six years of experience between them, one calm room at a time.
Forty six years. One little spa.
Marina opened the spa in 2010 after more than a decade grooming dogs across Los Angeles. She wanted to create a calm, personal grooming space in Marina del Rey, one dog at a time, one gentle table, and every finish done by hand. No kennels, no production line, no rushed cuts.
Today, the spa still keeps that same small-team standard. Sophia joined in 2014, Daniel joined in 2018, and our apprentice program helps train the next generation of careful groomers. Together, our team brings over forty-six years of hands-on grooming experience.
The same calm approach. The same careful hands. The same dog, just cleaner, softer, and shinier.

Things you might be wondering.
Do I need to book ahead?
Yes, we’re a small spa and one-on-one, so we book out 1–2 weeks in advance. Same-week slots come up; call or message us if you’re flexible.
How long does a full groom take?
Usually 90–120 minutes. We don’t stack appointments, so your pup isn’t sitting in a kennel, they’re home with you the moment we’re done.
What if my dog is nervous or has never been groomed?
Tell us when you book. Our team has experience with nervous and senior dogs, and we often split the first visit into two shorter sessions to help build trust.
Do you handle matted coats?
We do, but humanely. If a coat is severely matted we’ll shave rather than brush, pulling through mats is painful. We’ll always talk you through options first.
Do you groom all dog breeds?
Yes. We groom dogs of all breeds, sizes, and coat types. From small pups to doodles, Aussies, poodles, and larger breeds, each dog is handled with calm, one-on-one care based on their coat, comfort, and grooming needs.
