K-9 Grooming & Pet Motel

Finding a reliable boarding facility for working dogs with high energy, personality, and specialized training in detection and protection can be challenging. After some disappointing experiences elsewhere, we found Marie Schadt and her team at K9 Grooming, and it has made all the difference. Marie’s professionalism and genuine empathy for our dogs, combined with her highly skilled staff, set this place apart. Despite the 2-hour and 20-minute drive, we wouldn’t consider taking our dogs anywhere else. It’s worth every mile knowing that our dogs are in such capable and caring hands. Highly recommend K9 Grooming for anyone looking for top-notch care for their dogs!

I LOVE Marie and the staff at K9 Grooming & Pet Motel. They always do a great job on my little fur babies (and all my friends animals too)! If youre looking to get your animals groomed or have them go on a little vacation - look NO further than K9. You wont be disappointed! 😺🐶🐾

We have been boarding our dogs here for a few years. The kennels are incredibly clean, my dogs are always happy to be there and we feel so safe leaving them in such good hands!

Great place!! I have taken my dogs here for years. Knowledgeable staff. Everyone friendly and very caring with the dogs.

Wonderfully clean, pets are treated so well. The staff are really helpful.

Fabulous, sparkling clean and they do a fantastic job with my poodle !! Cant recommend them highlyenough. They are so popular we book 3 appointments ahead to keep our schedule tight !! Tell Marie Ruthie sent u !!!

Morley came back so pretty handsome best place to have your loved one taken care of.After With his fancy bandana before with his wild mane. Great people

This is the only place I will bring my dogs! My dogs are always nervous and two of them have been refused at other groomers. They always do a wonder job for a very reasonable price! They also add a cute bandana!

Wonderful staff and Marie is very helpful with upkeep grooming tips. My dogs love going there. Love K9 grooming and boarding

By far, the best groomers in the area, no questions asked! My dog always stays at the groomer when we go away, and its peace of mind on a trip to know your dog is getting taken care of! 10 stars!!

Took my puppy for haircut when I picked her up I was questioned by owner in very rude manner she asked why she was afraid? Well she is a pup very loving never afraid of me my family not afraid of Vet or any of her helpers, not afraid of any people at Walmart or park but maybe she was afraid of being left at your shop maybe afraid of her treatment there? Her haircut was not the best but the questions the owners put to me the loving owner of the dog put me way off ! I told my vet , my family etc we all came to same conclusion what ever happened there made her afraid will not go there again I will try somewhere else. The pup is happy, loving and sweet she doesn’t need to be afraid and I don’t need to be questioned like a criminal Had dogs all my life was kind and treated them like family and will always Daisy is my baby treat her like gold so whoever the owner of K-9 grooming thinks she is I’m not having it goodbye lose my number because I’m losing yours.

Fabulous! Love the freedom of taking my pups to stay with Marie for day care. They come home tired and happy and I always get a picture or two of my fur babies showing off with their friends.Very professional and accommodating. Such a great find in Oswego. My wife and I moved here last year from NJ and did not expect to find such a high quality place. We are so lucky!!

OMG!! I love this place. First time in 25 years I have found a kennel that I trust with my fur-babies. The VIP is the best and Marie and her staff are absolute saints. The place could not be cleaner and the service is SO personal.The grooming is the best I’ve ever seen. Incredibly thorough, show quality regardless of the mutt.

Always a wonderful, friendly welcome. Our pup always looks happy and well cared for every time we pick him up!

I brought my dog Sherlock to K-9 Grooming for the past 3 years (only stopped since we have moved out of state). Marie and the staff are exceptional. Sherlock got to the point where he was excited to stay overnight and play outside at their facility. Marie is a wonderful person, easy to work with, very responsive and caring. I cant say enough good things about K-9 and would HIGHLY recommend. There were plenty of times where I needed to leave town on short notice and they were always accommodating. Thank you for everything you have done.

Marie has been our groomer for our furbabies for longer than I will mention.We no longer live in Oswego but stay for the summer each year and Marie always take such good care of our girls. She is the only one we trust in this area.Thanks to Marie and her staff

Great Kennel and grooming! Owner is on site and is such an animal lover! All the staff are great and take such good care of our dog! The grooming is fantastic and they do exactly what you as for. We are lucky to have such a great place to board or dog as well as have her groomed! They know her by her name when she walks in!

This place was great! I have a big dog, and some places are apprehensive with him, but they knew exactly how to handle him. They also gave him a bath, and it came with a free bandanna.

My chow chow Bailey is a real handful and Marie and her professional staff do an unbelievable job of grooming my girl so beautifully. Bailey is so well treated that she loves to go. I may never try to wash my mud puppy ever again!!

Marie and the rest of the crew saved our vacation. We were able to board both of our dogs, including our special needs pup. We drove from Syracuse to utilize this place and would highly recommend it!

Trout is a happy pup. Great staff !! Update... Trout knew right where he was when we pulled in this morning, he walked right in like the good pup knowing he would be taken care of. All of you do such good work !! Trout says WOOF !!!

When I first made an apt to have my shar pei puppy groomed I was so nervous bc she is terrified of strangers and is not very cooperative. When I brought her in she barked and made a big fuss and Marie wasn’t phased by it at all. She didn’t give me a “that’s a bad dog” look, and is one of the very few people so far that I’ve met with my dog that didn’t give me a lecture on how shar peis are bad dogs. She said “she’s beautiful, perfect size, and we’ll be fine. We’ll be friends by the end.” I thought for sure that I would get a phone call a half hour later saying to come pick up my unreasonable dog and not to return. But I didn’t. I showed back up at the pick up time to a beautifully clean and fluffy pup with trimmed nails and the works. And she was leaning against Marie’s leg getting pets. I don’t know what sort of animal whispering witch craft she possesses but it’s special and I will never take my animals anywhere else. Since our first apt we’ve been back a couple more times and every time my dog is calmer and more cooperative. She’s being groomed by someone who understands her fear, understands the breed temperament, and is working on building a positive relationship with my dog. Aside from the fact that my dog always comes back having had a fantastic grooming, smelling amazing, and looking beautiful, the comfort I have knowing that she is with Marie is invaluable. I’d happily pay 10xs the incredibly inexpensive rate they charge, it would be worth every dollar.

Patron for many years and couldn’t be happier!!!! Marie has ALWAYS treated my dog as if he were her own and we were family- the staff love both our doodles.like children ....running out to the car to say goodbye! So sweet! Great grooming- Happy sleepovers- when the vacation bag comes out, the dogs scurry like it’s playtime!!! Hilarious! Thank you, Marie!!!!

Will not take Nala to this groomer. Owner has a horrible attitude and is miserable. All she does is complain about her business, her stress, etc. Not reliable to be open when she says. Poor response to messages (never responded to VM and took 4h to respond to text). Extremely poor attitude and customer service. Our dog is the most loving lap dog. But every time she comes back from her grooming she is very anti-social for a day and won’t eat. We have always wondered if she was mis-treated while there??? I can’t believe people actually take their pets there. The only reason we ended up there was vets/groomers were difficult to find during the pandemic. Won’t ever refer anyone there.

Oh my God! Who would have thought Cats? Marie & staff are WONDERFUL!! My 2 kitties (after the initial shock 🙀) were prancing & showing off their new beautiful look to all - they were so proud. I have never seen anything like it! I have always been a loyal customer and will forever stay one, as long as I have fur babies. Yes, she is a whisperer!😻

Marie and her staff did a great job on Morley our chow, lab newfoundland mix. Hes very hairy and not very patient. He was happy, gorgeous and handsome when they finished. Thank you Marie.

Cant say much, as I am not in the know, of even what the inside looks like, pre-covid-19, husband maintained scheduling and serviceing needs of our Morkies Grooming upkeep, I am pleased with the looks and results our pet receives. It shows she trains her clientele also, because Ive spoken to the pup to wait, hold still in order to remove something stuck onto his face, well, he completely knows that command and will maintain the hold still stance, until I say good boy. Shows me my boy is more than a payment. They care and reinforce character building obedience skills. Thanks for caring and your talents.

They were absolutely amazing with Loki, will definitely be back!!

Top-notch service and very caring staff. Both boarding and grooming services are highly recommended.

I will not bring my dog anywhere else. This place is simply amazing! They are personable and my dog is happy to go there, and not distressed or anxious when he arrives or leaves. This place is thorough and the groomers are allstars in my book!

Great service with a smile and excellent treatment for the dogs. We use boarding and grooming regularly. I trust nobody like Marie and her staff with my dogs.

I bring my dog here every 3 months its amazing place theyre very good with animals always busy yet do great business and we appreciate them for taking care of our little guy thank you

They are truly an excellent animal care center. A little on the mid end of price, but worth it for the quality of care given to your loved, furry friends.

You and your furry family member will love K9 grooming. The owner and staff are welcoming as well as caring. Zoey loves doggie day care!

Nice place. They take good care of the dogs for boarding and they do a good job grooming. Both at reasonable rates. Very nice people

They always do such a great job grooming and taking great care of our dog whenever she visits! Highly recommend!

Marie is awesome and her staff is oh so friendly. My doggy is always happy when I pick her back up.

I brought my 2 dogs here for grooming and they were treated royally. The attention to detail was incredible and carside service is great.

I really love it my puppy enjoyed the time she was there great service friendly people 10 out of 10 I highly recommend others to try it

They are so friendly. Our sweet boy goes right to Marie. They do an amazing job!!!

They are wonderful ❤️ Cinnamon had a great time!!

Excellent and attentive care of my two dogs! Attention given to my dogs was above simply housing the dogs and was at a level of caring about their welfare and mental state. Thank you!

Marie and her staff are very friendly and reasonably priced. They are very loving to my Zoe.

Great place to take your pet for all your needs! My wife loves the attention to detail and personal service they give our Rocco

They do a really good job. And they are right down the road from me. Very affordable. Give them a jingle

Boarded my cat for 7 days to take a vacation. When I dropped him off with tears in my eyes at the thought of him being in a cage and not knowing what was going on. My fears were quickly relieved with the attention the owner took to him and how I was feeling. I returned home late because of delayed flights. Easily accommodated. When I picked him up he was happy and letting her love on him. I have already booked my next vacation and feel 110% confident my furbaby will be not only well taken care of while I am gone, but spoiled. Would definitely recommend!!

I have been bringing my dog here for over a year and they do a great job every single time great place great people

They always take good care of my pets needs living environment great service friendly people

I dont stray from this place. My Rocco gets GREAT care and if he didnt, you would certainly know about it.....

Marie and her staff, treat animals as if they were their own personal pet. Thank You all for your hospitality.

They do a great job with our the girls (cats)! They come home looking beautiful!

Great staff who take the greatest of care of our pups.

Wonderful people who take great care of our beloved pets while we are away!

Been going for years love how they groom and treat my babies..

Caring and knowledgeable staff. My dog is always happy to go.

Our dogs love it here excellent staff

Very clean, compassionate,caring staff,Marie is as good as there is in the industry.

Always excellent work and friendly staff. Ive gone for 35 years!

Incredible service that can always be trusted. Our animals are always so well taken care of. Our pets always come out with cute bandanas, after getting a grooming. We can always trust our furry family members, are treated with the utmost respect. They always look forward to going back to K-9 and return home, happy, healthy and in good spirits.

They are very caring and loving with my fur baby. Very friendly people

Great people wonderful with the animals truly love their work.

Great grooming for my dog at a fair price 👍

Marie and her staff are amazing. They truly care about each pet as if they were their own. Riley loves being there. We can leave her there and feel comfortable that she is being cared for and loved.

Great service, friendly staff

Have gone here for years. Fair prices and quality work. Staff is very helpful and with their advice I cleared up an allergic skin issue my vet couldnt even take care of on my dog

Literally the best - and only groomers you should ever go to. While other groomers might love dogs, these people are true dog lovers.Dont trust places like pet smart and other major corporations - This company is nice to dogs - They prefer not to muzzle your puppy, and they even have long Run type cages for your dog to stay in.

Maries K-9 Hotel...... Is wonderful. They treat your furbaby (s) just as you would. Marie knows dogs. You might like her to a dog whisperer!! Her staff is wonderful, too. The kennel is spotless. I usually hire a house / dog sitter for my two boys. I would (will) entrust my babies to her ANY TIME. She is reasonably priced.Call her, make an appointment to visit the kennel and speak to Marie. DO NOT TAKE MY WORD FOR IT. Find out for yourself!!!

They always do a great job and the staff is friendly

Got my English Yellow Lab groomed and he looked awesome! Needed that spring shed removed. The price was reasonable too. Ill definitely go again.

Friendly staff and owner! Akways 100% satisfied with them. They love my dog treat her well and do amazing grooming work. Highly recommend K-9
