鈥淥ne of my favorite things is to see dogs run in, excited to be back in our grooming space,鈥� said Paige Smith, owner of Fur Krewe, located at 3406 Drusilla Ln, Baton Rouge, LA 70809.
The team at Fur Krewe takes your pet鈥檚 comfort to heart. Providing a safe space where all tail-wagging friends can be themselves while getting dolled up is a top priority for the team at Fur Krewe, and it shows. They were recently honored with the silver designation for Best Pet Grooming in the Best of Baton Rouge competition, voted on by Baton Rouge community members.
The Fur Krewe team is certified by the National Dog Groomers Association of America as well as the AKC庐 S.A.F.E. Grooming Program. Each pet stylist has more than 20 years of experience, and the business has become a trusted staple in the Baton Rouge community since opening before the COVID-19 pandemic.
For Smith and her team, grooming is about far more than appearances. The staff focuses on creating positive, low-stress experiences for pets. One of Fur Krewe鈥檚 standout features is its kennel-free environment, which helps pets feel more relaxed during their visit. Instead of waiting for services in a kennel, dogs are given opportunities to interact and decompress in a supervised setting while they await their grooming appointments.
鈥淲e really want every pet to feel comfortable and cared for from the moment they walk through the door,鈥� Smith said. 鈥淓very dog has a different personality and different needs, so we take the time to get to know them.鈥�
That personalized approach has helped Fur Krewe build a loyal customer base throughout Baton Rouge. Whether it鈥檚 a first-time puppy appointment, a senior dog requiring extra attention or a nervous pet needing additional reassurance, the staff tailors each appointment to the individual pet.
In addition to traditional grooming services such as baths, haircuts, nail trims and ear cleaning, Fur Krewe offers Thera-Clean microbubble treatments for dogs with sensitive skin. The chemical-free soak deep cleans hair follicles, releasing trapped bacteria and allergens that may irritate the skin or cause unwanted odors. The team also educates pet owners on proper maintenance between appointments and offers customized grooming plans based on breed, coat type and lifestyle.
For busy pet owners, Fur Krewe also offers a play-care service designed to give pets a fun, social and supervised environment throughout the day. The daycare program allows dogs to play, exercise and interact with other pets while under the watchful care of trained staff members. Whether it鈥檚 for one hour or a full workday, pets become valued members of the play-care 鈥渒rewe.鈥�
The business has grown largely through word-of-mouth recommendations from customers who appreciate the team鈥檚 compassion and attention to detail. As Fur Krewe continues to serve Baton Rouge pet owners, the team remains focused on building trust and delivering high-quality grooming in an environment where pets feel safe, comfortable and genuinely cared for.
