  • Special Announcement

    Wizard of Pawz, effective 12/20/2024. This decision was not made lightly, and after careful consideration of various factors, the main one being that unfortunately the building our salon has been for the last 8 years has recently been sold, and we have been unable to find a suitable spot in the time frame given. I believe it is in the best interest to close my doors for the time being.

    I want to express my deepest gratitude to our loyal clients, dedicated employees, and supportive community. Your trust and support have meant the world to me and my team. We are proud of what we have accomplished together.

    During this transition, We will still be accepting clients until December 20th, we’d love to see your pups for the holidays still! Our priority is ensuring a smooth closure for everyone and we will be there to support our clients through this transition.


    I plan to continue grooming at The Vanity Fur in Natick MA and would love to see some familiar faces! I will be starting there in February 2025. I will provide more details on my schedule and how to book in the new year. 

    Thank you once again for your support throughout the last 8 years. I will always cherish the memories and relationships built through The Wizard of Pawz.

    Sincerely,

    Dorothy, Christine, Cait and Ryen

Dog grooming work

Dorothy Toni Alden - Founder, Owner, Professional Dog Groomer

With grooming being a lifelong commitment, Dorothy provides a safe and stress-free environment in her salon. Clients are free to roam throughout the salon unless specified to be kenneled by the client's owner. All breeds and dog temperaments are welcome! Upon request, individual grooming sessions can be provided for reactive and anxious dogs. Providing the best for all clients only allows all-natural grooming and cleaning products to be used in her salon.

DorothyToni Alden fell in love with the grooming industry when she started bathing dogs at The Shaggy Dog, LLC. She was hooked and decided to look into grooming schools. In 2014, Dorothy attended The Dapper Dawg Grooming School and completed her apprenticeship under master groomers Shelly Raymond and the late Jasper Asaro. A few months after Dorothy started her business, she was diagnosed with Lupus. Lupus is an autoimmune disease where Dorothy's organs attack themselves. Running a business and dealing with a chronic illness can be very hard. Dorothy cant thank her amazing clients enough for the support they have given her over the years. When Dorothy is not grooming you can find her with her four dogs Amina, Nikovich, Cubby, and Harley, playing in the woods at her home in West Townsend, MA.
