I came to have my cat's nails trimmed. Cherish, the store owner, did a fantastic job on my cat. I'm definitely coming back.

Dakota looks like a whole new dog! She's back to feeling silky soft like a baby bunny and smells like a little bouquet of flowers.

Cheri, real name Cherish McIntosh, has such a wonderful disposition and is truly excited to work with her clients, both human, and especially animal clients! My cat looks marvelous with her fresh cut. I’m very happy with everyone I met today. I can’t wait to receive future services at this animal grooming salon.

I have taken my girl Faith to Cherish at Groomin Tyme for close to 10 years. She gets Spa and nails done. She always looks forward to visiting and I know how much Cherish cares for her. Now the Faith and I are both getting older... Cherish also comes out to my SUV and lifts Faith out because she can't jump down. She always goes above and beyond customer service!

We have a double coated 84lb husky we got as a rescue and he desperately needed grooming. Groomin Tyme staff was so nice and took such good care of our fluff. He was happy as can be after his visit. We will definitely be continuing services here.

This place is second to none, Cherish is very knowledgeable and an animal lover, she is kind, patient and tolerant. My dog is kinda snobby and I worried about her biting, Cherish said thanks and not to worry. When finished she explained my dog was perfect. She's got a way with dogs like no other. I will always be a customer and recommend to all animals owners. Thxs Cherish.........you da bomb!

Didn't need to make an appt. Brought my dog in to have his toenails trimmed. Everyone there was friendly including the groomer's pets who roamed around. These groomers were nice, friendly and fast and did an excellent job on my dog's nails! Thank you!

Frequently Asked Questions About Cat Grooming

What should I expect during a professional cat grooming session?

A typical professional cat grooming session usually begins with a consultation to discuss your cat's needs. The groomer will then examine your cat's coat and skin condition before proceeding with services like brushing to remove loose fur, bathing with cat-specific shampoo, blow-drying, nail trimming, ear cleaning, and any specialized haircuts if needed. Most sessions take between 1-2 hours depending on your cat's coat condition and temperament.

How should I prepare my cat for a grooming appointment?

To prepare your cat for grooming, brush them at home a few days before to remove loose fur and minor tangles. Keep your cat in a secure carrier for transportation. Arrive a few minutes early to complete paperwork and allow your cat time to adjust to the new environment. Bring information about your cat's health, temperament, and any areas they're sensitive about. For anxious cats, consider withholding food for 2-3 hours before the appointment to reduce the risk of stress-related nausea.

Why is professional cat grooming important?

Professional cat grooming is important for several reasons: it reduces shedding and hairballs, prevents painful matting, allows early detection of skin issues or parasites, keeps your cat's coat healthy and shiny, reduces dander (helpful for allergy sufferers), and maintains proper hygiene. Professional groomers have specialized tools, products, and techniques to safely handle cats, even those with behavioral challenges. Regular grooming also helps cats become more comfortable with handling, which is beneficial for veterinary visits.

How often should my cat be professionally groomed?

The frequency of professional grooming depends on your cat's coat type, length, and lifestyle. Long-haired breeds like Persians typically need grooming every 4-6 weeks to prevent matting. Medium-haired cats may need grooming every 6-8 weeks, while short-haired cats might only need professional attention every 8-12 weeks or during seasonal shedding periods. Cats with special conditions like obesity or arthritis that prevent self-grooming may need more frequent appointments. Your groomer can recommend an appropriate schedule based on your cat's specific needs.

What's the difference between cat and dog grooming?

Cat grooming differs significantly from dog grooming. Cats have more sensitive skin, requiring gentler handling and cat-specific products. Their grooming sessions are typically shorter to minimize stress. Cats often need specialized restraint techniques and quieter environments. Cat groomers use different tools designed for feline coats and are trained to recognize signs of stress unique to cats. Cat-only grooming facilities eliminate the anxiety many cats experience around dogs, creating a more comfortable experience for your feline friend.
