Looking for a pet groomer in Pasadena, MD? Maybe you want a mobile van that comes to your driveway, a Mountain Road salon, or a neighborhood shop close to home in Riviera Beach.
Neighbors in the Best of Pasadena Facebook group selected Maryland Elite Dog Spa, The Dog Haus Grooming, and Fancy Pawz Matter as the 2026 top three for Best Pet Groomer. Here is a closer look at each, including where they work, how they book, and what they are known for.
1st place: Maryland Elite Dog Spa
Best for: Mobile grooming that serves Pasadena, plus a Glen Burnie salon
Maryland Elite Dog Spa is based at a salon at 7173 Baltimore Annapolis Boulevard in Glen Burnie, and its mobile units serve Pasadena and nearby Anne Arundel County towns. The official site says the business was founded in 2018 by an N.D.G.A.A. certified master groomer, and a Real Pasadena listing names founder Tara Delp. Each appointment is handled by one dedicated groomer from start to finish, which the company says cuts down on crate time. Salon and mobile visits typically run one to two hours, depending on the dog. Book through marylandelitedogspa.com if you want a van at the door or a salon visit.

2nd place: The Dog Haus Grooming
Best for: A Pasadena grooming shop on Mountain Road
The Dog Haus Grooming is at 2441 Mountain Road, Suite E, a local shop right in Pasadena. There is no standalone website. Facebook and Instagram are the best places to check hours, book, and see recent work, and the Facebook page is listed as Grooming by Brittany Bohn. If you want a sit-down salon in town instead of a mobile van, this is a strong Mountain Road place to start. Neighbors selected it as a 2026 top-three pet groomer in Pasadena, MD, so it is a name worth knowing if you already run errands on this end of the road.

3rd place: Fancy Pawz Matter
Best for: A neighborhood groomer on Riviera Drive
Fancy Pawz Matter is at 148 Riviera Drive, a close-to-home shop if you live in or near Riviera Beach. Facebook is the main public page, and it is the best place to confirm how to book and what the current schedule looks like. The shop does not have a standalone website. If you want a neighborhood groomer instead of a larger salon or a van, this is the one to look up first. It is a short hop off Fort Smallwood Road, in a part of Pasadena where a local groomer is genuinely around the corner.
