Pet Groomers near Hillsborough

“I can’t say enough great things about Pioneer Pet Care. It’s run by a husband-and-wife team, Tara and Jack, and you can truly feel how much they care about the dogs and love what they do.

I was in a tough spot—I wasn’t in a position to bring my dog with me and had a two-week vacation planned. I had already booked somewhere else, but after speaking with Tara on the phone, I was blown away by how kind and genuine she was. Then I met both her and Jack in person, and that sealed it for me. I canceled my original reservation without hesitation because this felt so much more personal, comfortable, and right for my dog.

What really stood out to me is their experience with “reactive” dogs. That’s not something every place can confidently handle, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog would be understood and cared for properly. They also clearly explained exactly how to handle drop-off on the day, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free.

My furbaby also got groomed during his stay and looked absolutely fabulous at the end of the two weeks! On top of that, I checked in on him twice while I was away, and they were always responsive and happy to update me on how he was doing—total peace of mind.

I’ve read that some people say Tara can come across as rude, but I completely disagree! She isn’t rude or condescending—she’s just firm and direct, which makes perfect sense given that she’s running a business. This isn’t a typical 9–5 job either; it’s truly her and her husband’s lifestyle, and that level of structure and seriousness is exactly what makes them so good at what they do.

If you’re looking for a place where your dog will be safe, understood, and genuinely cared for, this is it. I wouldn’t trust anyone else. Thank you so very much! ? ?“
