Our Story

Built by a Dog Owner
Who Understood the Difference

K9 Studio was born from a real frustration. Owner Karen Merz had two dogs: a 90-pound German Doberman named Max, and a 2-pound Teacup Yorkshire Terrier named Snoopy. Finding a groomer in Greenwich who understood the difference between them — and cared enough to treat them accordingly — proved nearly impossible. Neither dog ever left looking quite right, and they never looked quite happy.

So Karen built the studio she always wished existed. Owned and operated by a local Greenwich family of dog lovers, K9 Studio is founded on a single belief: every dog deserves to be seen, understood, and cared for as the individual they are.

Today, K9 welcomes every breed to a studio their dog can consider a second home. In Karen's words: "We love taking care of your dogs." That's not a tagline. It's just true.

Our Difference

What Makes K9
Truly Different

We didn't open a grooming salon to run a production line. Every decision we make starts with one question: what's best for this dog?

🐾

Breed-Specific Expertise

From 2-pound Teacup Yorkies to 90-pound Dobermans, we understand that beauty and nature differ by breed — and we groom accordingly.

🛡️

Dog Safety Comes First

Before style, before speed, before anything else — your dog's comfort and safety guide every decision we make in the studio.

Consistent Results, Every Visit

We build a relationship with your dog over time so the results are never a surprise — just exactly what you expected.

🏡

A Studio Like a Second Home

Designed to feel familiar and calm, K9 Studio is a place where anxious dogs relax and every pup is treated like family.

🔍

Attention to Every Detail

The little things are what we live for. We notice what other groomers overlook, and your dog's finish reflects that.

❤️

Long-Term Relationships

Our clients come back year after year — not out of habit, but because they trust us with what matters most to them.

K9 Studio was founded by a dog owner who was genuinely frustrated by the inconsistency and indifference she found elsewhere. We treat every breed as the individual they are, we put safety before speed, and we care deeply about consistency — because your dog's experience matters to us personally.

Consistency is one of our core commitments. We build knowledge of your dog over repeated visits so that every appointment delivers results you can count on.
