Here, there is no rush to drop off your dog and disappear.

You are welcome to stay.

Have a cup of coffee or tea.

Open a book. Sit quietly. Walk outside. Breathe.

Step into the dog park, wander toward the sand room, or simply allow yourself a few moments to slow down.

Think of it as the avenue into Mavilous — a gentle transition from the noise of the outside world into a place of presence, calm and connection.

And while you experience that on one side of the Barn, your dog is experiencing something very similar on the other.

No assembly line.

No cages.

No rushing.

Just one dog, one set of hands, and the time needed to listen.

Where Grooming Begins With Trust

At Mavilous Touch, grooming begins long before the first cut. Mavi takes time to observe, listen, and understand each companion—allowing trust to develop before her hands begin. Nothing is rushed. Nothing is forced. Every dog is met exactly where they are.

A Different Approach to Dog Grooming

The Mavilous Touch


With more than 36 years devoted to her craft, Mavi has learned that beautiful grooming doesn't begin with scissors. It begins by understanding the companion in front of her—their temperament, their signals, their comfort, and the pace they need.

Listen First

Before the bath. Before the cut. Before the styling.


Mavi observes each companion and gives them time to settle. No assumptions. No rushing. Just the patience to understand who is standing in front of her.
