Krissy is absolutely THE BEST groomer. She took amazing care of my Bulldog who generally hates getting bathed. She took her time, and he wasn’t stressed out at all. He came home squeaky clean, and smelling amazing. We both love Krissy and all the ABC staff. Would recommend them to everyone

We can’t say enough about Kris and her staff at A Better Companion! They take great care of our dog, Luna and treat her like she is their own. Their grooming services can’t be beat Kris has been key in identifying some health issues our pup has had before we even knew what was going on. Luna runs in the door each week! We are so thankful we found A Better Companion!
