About Us

History

Founded in 2005 by Verdi White, Dirty Johnson’s has been a beloved destination for pet lovers in Salt Lake City, Utah. Inspired by Verdi’s rescued Maltese, Johnson, the business was built on a mission to make dog grooming fun, easy, and caring for every pup who walks through our doors.

Today, Marisa Hernandez, co-founder of Ruff Haven, carries forward that legacy with the same passion for pets and community. We continue to offer self-service dog washing, full-service grooming, and pet sitting in clean, welcoming facilities. Our team is dedicated to giving every dog the attention and love they deserve—and we even provide free washes to recently rescued dogs within their first month of adoption.

With years of loyal customers and an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau, Dirty Johnson’s remains a trusted place for pet owners seeking quality, convenience, and a little extra love for their furry friends.
