Owner Jon Pride, a U.S. military veteran of 22 years, says he treats his clients’ fur babies like his own, with the pet’s happiness as the top priority.
“We go to the client’s house — whether they can’t get out or their pups are too stressed to visit a brick-and-mortar location,” Jon said. “We do full grooms inside our self-contained mobile unit, which has everything you’d find in a salon. It saves clients the hassle of transporting their pets and spares pets the stress of being around other dogs.”
Waggin Wheels Grooming is also committed to giving back to the community, partnering with the Fayetteville Police Department and the Fayetteville Woodpeckers for free grooming events and holiday giveaways. 910-446-8637
