Testimonials

On 1/12/2026 Bryant Woodford had this to say:
We had been using West Branch Grooming Station since 2023 for our two corgis, Thumper & Lilo. Recently we just moved out of state to Texas but wanted to leave a review as they've done such a great job of the past couple years and deserve a 5/5 star. They've worked with our schedule and our pups have always come back smiling ear to ear. Thank you all for taking care of our two favorites and best of luck on your future endeavors, we will miss you!

On 12/30/2025 Ken Brown had this to say:
We've been using Groom Station for just under a year based on a neighbor's recommendation. We've taken 2 dogs now, different breeds, for full groom. We've had 3 different groomers. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly and, despite how many clients they have, we have been able to get great timing for appointments within a week every time. We will continue to make the drive from Iowa City for the great treatment they provide our dogs and us humans!

Wonderful little shop with great staff who go the extra mile. Our sweet Fancy got her first proper groom here - she looks so refreshed! We’re so appreciative of The Groom Station for taking such amazing care of her. We’re looking forward to future visits. Highly recommend!

Laura pampers our dogs and they love her. Just saying her name or "haircut" sends them into a tizzy of joy!

On 8/15/2025 Stephanie Watts had this to say:
Lyssa is absolutely incredible! We have two very large dogs. One is older and scared of just about everything, and the other is a total sassy pants. She handles them both with such patience, skill, and kindness. Our timid pup actually lights up when she sees Lyssa, which says everything! She takes the time to make them comfortable, never rushes, and always sends them home looking and smelling amazing. She’s knowledgeable, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. We’re so grateful to have found someone who can not only manage their size and personalities, but also treat them like her own. Highly recommend!
