In 1989, Debbie Foster started Debbie's Pet Boutique out of her home in Healdsburg. Within a year, growing demand led her to lease a 450 square-foot building in Windsor, California. With the help of her daughter Crystal, the boutique thrived for 13 years in that space before the business outgrew it. A move to a larger, custom-designed building followed, and now Debbie’s operates as a full-service operation that handles both grooming and retail.

The grooming area is genuinely well set up for dogs of all sizes and ages. There’s a walk-in tub and dryer on site, which makes a real difference if you have a senior dog or one who’s anxious about traditional setups. They’ve even got self-wash stations if you want to handle bathing yourself, or you can work with one of their professional bathers who can choose the right shampoo for your dog’s specific coat and skin needs. There’s a separate room dedicated to cat grooming too, so they’re not mixing species in the same space.

The boutique side stocks the kind of supplies you actually need—toys, treats, beds, and grooming products like Advantage and Seresto collars. The pricing stays reasonable, which matters when you’re buying regularly. They have a dressing table where you can try on new pet attire before committing, so you know it’ll fit properly when you get home.

Debbie’s has been veterinarian-recommended over the years, and it shows in how they approach things. Whether you’ve got a tiny dog, a large breed, or a senior who needs extra care, they handle all of them with the same attention. If you’re in Healdsburg and need grooming plus supplies in one place, stopping by makes sense—you can get your dog cleaned up and pick up what you need without running around town.
