I have a very large Bernese Mountain Dog and Muddy Pup does an amazing job with him every time. They are very thorough and he always looks amazing when I pick him up. Their prices are also very reasonable for the time they take to do such a thorough job. I strongly recommend!

“Mel” has groomed our dog, Jack, for over a decade and we’ve always liked the results. She and Dana make a great team. They are helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. I’ve moved to PA and now drive an hour so Jack can enjoy his favorite spa day.

These folks did an amazing job on my Service Dog! She is a Belgian Tervuren and needed a bath and trim. When Ziva came out, I couldn't believe how much more beautiful she was.They were very accommodating so that I was not without my Service Dog for an extended period of time. Thank you so much!

My husband and I stumbled upon The Muddy Pup as we frequent the shopping center it’s in quiet often. We were so excited a grooming salon was opening up as it’s super close to our home and convenient to get to. Our dog Stanley instantly fell in love with the Dana and Melanie and I don’t blame him. They are extremely kind and gentle with all of their clients. I remember the first appointment we had with them was a nail appointment. I warned them both and apologized in advance that our dog is going to cry the entire time and be a big pain for them. To my surprise, he was good as gold and didn’t make a peep. We’ve taken our dog regularly to get bathed and groomed, trying multiple places and he’s usually petrified. I could tell he instantly felt comfortable here and we were SO excited we found a new grooming salon. We’ve been taking our dog Stanley here for months now, since they first opened, and I will never look for another grooming salon again. He’s always so excited to see the girls, hugs and kisses them, and runs back with excitement behind the gate. A total turnaround from other salons we’ve tried. Thank you so much, Muddy Pup. We’re so glad you opened a location in Columbus and will continue to bring our baby (and future babies) here! We (and Stanley) love you!!

The Muddy Pup is the best! Our 2 goldens have never looked better after a full grooming and haircut. The owners, Dana and Melanie are so friendly and welcoming, you will feel at ease leaving your dogs in their care. Also, I love the convenience of being able to book our appointments easily online. ​What a wonderful new addition to Columbus!

I switched to the Muddy Pup since B&B banned my boys. My girls were still welcomed but really… My girls went first, Calista, my husky, is usually stressed after spa day, I was amazed at how relaxed she and Kimba was, her coat done beautifully. The boys were next, I warned them, Shinobi, an Australian shepherd, doesn’t like grooming and both don’t like their nails done. Muddy Pup was like “we got this”. Shinobi came home groomed to perfection and Patches nails done. They put up a fight and the job got done. Thank you Muddy Pup. ❤️

We’re thrilled with how our pup Bailey looks after her appointment! Really great attention to detail trimming the excess fur on her paws. We’ll definitely be coming back.

We were recommended to The Muddy Pup from our vet. It was a perfect match! The groomers are very accommodating and helpful in ensuring our puppy has a great experience with grooming, even providing recommendations for what we can do at home to get her use to the grooming process. Leah always comes back smelling and looking great! Plus, they add a seasonally themed bandana that is adorable. Clean, professional, and experienced service. I definitely recommend!

Had our 9 year old German shepherd groomed at The Muddy Pup on Wednesday, 7/13/22. We were extremely pleased and very impressed with their services. They were sensitive to our Reilly's ACL problem. They were so nice to her, not even minding that she doesn't like her face blow dried. Plus their prices were very reasonable. We'll be back soon for sure.

We took our golden doodle puppy 4 months old to the muddy pup for his first grooming. They were recommended by our vet and breeder, and it was easy to see why. The owners and staff are fantastic! Professional, friendly, and clearly love dogs! The facility is extraordinarily clean and you feel welcome from the moment you open the door. Recommend the muddy pup without reservation!

Absolutely smitten! I stumbled upon Muddy Pup out to lunch on a Tuesday and by Saturday booked & exceeded my expectations. My Nymeria is Australian Shepard and Husky. Any other place would of taken me to the cleaners. She has mats in her hind quarters, they were knowledgeable and confident she just needed a wash and blow dry and that shaving her would damage her coat. I told them she hates the blow dryer, but has never bit or snapped and had permission to muzzle. I dropped her off at 11:30am and picked her up at 4pm. She did hate the blow dryer so they had her air dry because they did want to stress her out. Would highly recommend and will be a permanent customer. Added bonus...Nymeria 's mother, father, brother, and sister go there...

My dog, Chase, gets a great cut at the Muddy Pup. It can be a little difficult because my dog is shy and might put up a fuss. I love that you have the choice of booking the appointment online or calling them. Makes it very convenient.

I wish I could give these wonderful women more stars! My two dogs love coming to the salon for baths, nail trims, and deshedding. The salon is beautiful and the staff are always so friendly.

The whole experience was great! Starting with the ease of booking the appointment online to picking up the boys (who looked extra handsome in their new bandanas and smelled great too). Everyone I talked to was really nice and it was obvious they love dogs so I knew my pups were in good hands.Already have our next appointment booked.

They’re just wonderful here! They take both of my dogs at the same time and make drop off and pick up a breeze. The prices are great too! We love the muddy pup and the team there that takes such good care of my babies 🐶🐶

Very pleasant experience with my beagle Paddington. The Muddy Pup was able to fit him in for grooming in a timely manner. They did a great job and everyone was very nice. Paddington came out clean, happy, and with a fresh bandana.

We took our 7 year old dog Summe to the Muddy Pup for the first time and she loved it. She is a nervous dog and her original groomer retired but the girls at Muddy Pup took such great care of her. We are so happy to have a new place for our dog.

I foolishly tried clipping my puppy’s nails on my own and trimmed right into the quick on a black nail, causing instant bleeding. After several frantic attempts to stop the bleeding on my own I gave up. So I drove my pup over to The Muddy Pup. They took him in right away, stopped the bleeding, and trimmed the rest of his nails FOR FREE. The whole thing took less than 3 minutes. I cannot thank them enough for how professional, kind, and timely The Muddy Pup is!!

WOW! Took my 10 year old timid Yorkie here for a full groom and the girls at the Muddy Pup did great with him! He walked out happy and handsome! The store was adorable and the girls were a pleasure to work with!! We will definitely be back!!

We had a nail trim today between grooming. My past Groomer tried hard but was afraid to cut to much, those 2 nails have been an issue. I did not blame her. The only person who will cut them short is our vet. Getting an appointment with Her is harder... So this was wonderful of you to suggest and do this between appointments to keep them shorter , since I worried they will grow into her skin. So Great of you and so happy you are in Columbus !!!!!!

We brought our 4 year old Riley to get groomed last week and she looks great! Riley usually has separation anxiety and darts away from the groomer, she ran right to their door. She loves Dana and the muddy pup!

My family has 2 doodles, a large husky, and a miniature schnauzer and we take them all to the muddy pup. We have taken our dogs to other groomers and none of them have done as good of a job or had our pups looking as adorable. They really care and do a great job will def keep coming back!

We love the Muddy Pup! Two of our favorite people from our longtime kennel opened this groomers several months ago, so we’ve been dealing with them for years! They have hit a home run with their new business!

I have long haired dog. And for two days I groomed him for his bath and blow dry. I even bring his shampoo and Conditioner. I made his appointment successfully online. But when I arrive they tell me they didn't get the appointment. So I waited while they spoke. Came out a toldme he's matted and hard to get out and hurts the dog. They would bath him today but no more. So they just want dogs with short hair. And no problems Very disappointing. If you call yourself a professional, aren't you supposed to handle these issues.
