Top Rated Local® is pleased to announce that Wag On Inn is a 2019 award winner in Vermont!
If your pet is due for a little pampering, there’s no better groomer to turn to in Vergennes than Wag On Inn.
Wag On Inn has received almost 100 reviews on four verified sites with an average rating of 4.87 stars, earning them an outstanding Rating Score™ of 97.05 and a 2019 Top Rated Local award for ranking among the top 50 businesses in all of Vermont!
Here’s just one of their many five-star reviews:
“We love Matt and Wag On Inn and recommend them to friends. Our pup always looks great after her haircut in the cute little bandana they give her. Matt is also really mindful of our dog’s needs. He sets up a little area only small dogs can access, so she doesn’t feel overwhelmed by bigger dogs, and he lets us know right away when she is done, so we can come get her (she gets nervous without us). It’s a great place where you can tell they love working with dogs!” – Elizabeth F.
Not Your Average Pet Groomer
Matt LaValley, the owner of Wag On Inn, generously gave us a few minutes of his time to tell us about this one-of-a-kind business and its award-winning online reputation.
The first thing we wanted to know was what it is that sets Wag On Inn apart from the many other pet groomers in Vermont. Here’s Matt’s response:
“My motto is, ‘The client’s pet is our top priority.’ We try to give each person and pet individual attention, and I feel that makes people want to come back and like what we do.”
We also wanted to know why they do what they do at Wag On Inn and how they work to make the world a better place. Matt told us about how they give back to their community, including fundraising for local rescues. Matt is also on the board of directors for the local Humane Society.
Building Success Through Social Media and Word of Mouth
When we asked Matt about Wag On Inn’s secret to such a strong online reputation, he said:
“We post photos of the dogs daily, and that sparks people’s interest. I try to comment on every post I am able to.”
Outside of building the kind of online reputation any business owner would envy, Wag On Inn has spread the word about who they are and what they do through social media and word of mouth.
Clearly, Matt knows a thing or two about growing a business and building an online reputation. Here’s his expert advice for the many other business owners out there:
“You must be passionate about what you are going to do. If you don’t have that, then I would walk away as fast as you can. Also, realize how much it takes to run a small business; the job never ends. You always have to put yourself out there —networking, networking, networking!”
Congratulations to the team at Wag On Inn for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and thank you so much, Matt, for taking the time to speak with us!
