Cancellations and No-Shows
We understand that most of us have busy schedules and sometimes things change last minute. Cancellations must be done 24 hours prior to your pet's appointment. If your appointment is cancelled or rescheduled less than 24 hours prior, you may be required to pay a non-refundable deposit to book your next appointment.
Matted Pet
At Paws on the Potomac your pet's health is a priority. If it can be determined that your pet only has a few matts, they can be thinned out or spot shaved. Pets with extensive matting must be shaved down. This is because brushing out mats is a painful experience for your pet. Restarting the coat is best to avoid a damaged coat matting back up and causing more discomfort. Remember that hair grows back much faster than your pet’s trust in the grooming process.
Right to Turn Away Pets with Aggressive Behavior
The safety of your pet and their groomer is of top priority. If at any point before or during the service your pet exhibits behavior that is determined unsafe, they may be turned away without completion of the service. Please inform your groomer of any aggressive tendencies, quirks, or sensitive areas your dog may have upon booking.

About Me

Hi, I'm Taryn — the groomer behind Paws on the Potomac — and if we’re at a gathering, I’m the one on the floor making friends with the dog. Animals have always been my comfort zone. As a kid, I dreamed of running a pet rescue (still do, one day!). I even looked into becoming a vet or vet tech, but it turns out you basically have to be a doctor to be a vet — and vet techs, while amazing, don’t get paid nearly what they deserve for such a tough job.

Eventually, I got my cosmetology license, but doing hair on people never really clicked for me — too much pressure. Dogs are my people. Grooming lets me combine hands-on care with creativity, and best of all, I get to work with animals I truly love.

I started Paws on the Potomac because I wanted to create something sustainable for my future — and offer a grooming service that’s high-quality, trustworthy, and convenient.

What makes my service special? It’s simple: I care. I’m not rushing to squeeze in the next appointment — I want your dog to leave feeling better, looking great, and maybe even a little lighter on their paws. You’ll only pay for the services your pet actually receives. No funny business. Just honest, personalized grooming.

My approach is kind and intuitive. I know that anxious or reactive pets often just need patience and understanding. I do my best to make grooming a safe, calm experience for every dog — especially the ones who need a little extra reassurance.

I’m truly grateful for every family who trusts me with their pet. I know how much they mean to you — because mine mean the world to me — and I’ll treat yours like my own.
