Our Story
Pawsitively Perfect Grooming & Self Bathe opened on December 14th, 2015. What started with just one groomer and a small, leased space has grown to a team of ten and a large building of our very own. We continue to be a family-owned and operated business, with a commitment to quality and caring. Our Pet First ideology, along with our incredible team have helped us to grow into one of Dayton’s top pet grooming salons. We can’t wait to meet you and your pets!
