Meet Paws & Relax!

Alyssa and Cheyenne both started their grooming journey in a quaint salon located in Anne Arundel County. After exploring various salons throughout their careers, they have always cherished the small-town shop where it all began. Now, with the chance to open their own salon, they aim to merge all the positive experiences from the salons they have worked at along the way. Their goal is to bring these wonderful experiences to Calvert County by establishing a salon that prioritizes a stress-free environment for your dog to enjoy a pampering session in a spa-like atmosphere. They will provide one-on-one appointments for all their clients! This means you won't have to drop your pup off in the morning and pick them up in the afternoon; simply drop them off, enjoy a meal or do some shopping at one of the fantastic options available in Prince Frederick, and by the time you're finished, your furry friend will be all cleaned up and ready to go!
