“Heather did a wonderful job with my longhaired cat, who has fur like a polar bear and the personality to match! I was worried my cat was too picky (I was told at the vet she refuses sometimes to get checked out) but Heather had no problem getting my cat to cooperate. She is extremely knowledgeable and experienced with cats. My cat looks amazing after going there. Thank you Heather!” – Felicia C.
Leading the pack![Top Dog Grooming in Oakland]()
Leading the pack is a family grooming salon and shop that will soon feature products made by members of their local community. Leading the Pack fills a much-needed niche in dog care for Oakland and East Bay, providing dogs with top-notch one-on-one service. They believe that every dog is different and even two dogs of the same breed may need completely different services. They tailor each service to suit your pet’s skin and coat condition, temperament and family lifestyle.
Each pet is handled with care and they operate on an individual appointment schedule so your pet spends less time away from home. Leading The Pack does not offer walk-in services because they distract groomers and pets who are in the middle of appointments. They believe that to provide a stress-free environment for their customers’ pets, they are a kennel-free salon.

Great attention to detail and knowledge from a ton of experience. And it shows! I can count on them every time! -Kody M.

“Broadway Pet Grooming and Alfonso are the best. He is honest and does a wonderful job. He knows the animals and always does a great job. We have two Portuguese Water Dogs, one wavy and one curly. The latter’s hair look like a poodle or a doodle. Alfonso knows when he can groom the dog without having to cut too much or when Jake needs to be shaved like a sheep because his hair is tangled. He will always do the right thing when we greeted him once and he said he had to shave it we talked about it and we were convinced what Jake needed he won’t say or do anything because that’s what the customer wants here, but he will always do the best for our puppies. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else. -Arthur R.

“Tony and Hector are the absolute best! We’ve been using them for over four years now and they’re absolutely amazing! We have a very anxious Labrador pit bull mix and Tony and Hector make him so comfortable that he immediately lays on his back and shows his stomach to them the second he sees them coming. We have never been able to trim our dog’s nails ourselves in the nine years we have owned him, but Tony and Hector are able to do it with such ease it seems like magic. They are affordable, take great care of your fur baby, fast and very friendly! I recommend them to anyone with a pet!” -Alyssa K.
