Fifth and Bark

Essense is amazing, she really loves the dogs and does a great job with them. i wont bring my best friend any where else. he absolutely loves her, there was never another groomer that he got so excited to see.

If you’re looking for a groomer who truly loves dogs, Essence at Fifth and Bark is the one. From the moment you meet her, you can tell this isn’t just a job—she genuinely cares about every pet she works with. She gives the most beautiful haircuts and pays attention to every little detail, making sure your dog is comfortable, happy, and well cared for throughout the entire visit. My dog always comes home looking incredible, and I have complete confidence knowing they’re in such loving hands. I can’t recommend Essence and Fifth and Bark enough!

THE BEST! We love this business. The owner and people that work here are amazing. So happy to have a business in South Tampa with reasonable prices and superior service. CALL THEM TODAY!!

Our dog was a rescue and terrified of the being groomed. We had tried three different chains and always got a call that they could not finish because he was so scared and shaking too much. Essence has a calm environment and demeanor. She also only grooms one dog at a time. Now our poodle is not afraid and we can experiment with all the fun cuts she can do!

Essence does such a great job with my dog, he gets compliments after every visit. What we appreciate most about Essence and her shop is that she really cares about the welfare and comfort of each animal she sees. She really knows what she is doing and she stays in touch throughout the visit.
