Julie is such a sweet soul and has a true talent with animals. I've never had more faith and trust in a groomer that my dog will not only look and feel great after his appointment but will be well looked after the entire time! It doesn't get better than Uptown Pet Spa!!
Julie did an amazing job on my husky/samoyed mix! She hates baths and can be extremely yappy, but Julie still managed to do such a thorough job on her coat, nails, bum etc. Julie was very accommodating with timing as well and was able to get my dog in and out within 2 hrs (which is tough for any double coated dog). She even spruced up with my dog with a cute bandana afterwards! I have to also add that her prices are extremely reasonable! Would highly recommend Julie to anyone looking for a good groomer in the Scottsdale area.
Our long hair cat needed a trim. We've tried several groomers, with less than stellar results. When I called to make an appointment at Uptown Pet Spa, the experience was different from the beginning. She seemed more excited about life. She looked at how to make it happen, instead of reasons why not. When we arrived, she greeted us, taking care to make sure my cat was okay. He isn't too fond of the cat carrier, and was making chupacabra noises. When it was all done, he looked good and much lighter, shedding bunches of fur. The bill was very fair, and I look forward to going back. Maybe get some scales next time...
If I could give this business 10 stars I would!!! I am visiting from out of town, and I needed my Shih Tzu groomed. The owner was so kind to accommodate me, and my Billy has never looked so good! I showed them a photo of how I like him groomed and he has never looked so good!!!
I can’t stress how thankful I am for the help! My little Brussels griffon was in uncharted territory from Los Angeles and fell victim to the unforeseen burr problem that apparently haunts the surrounding areas of Phoenix/Scottsdale lol! Being that we were in a rush and had a dinner scheduled, this establishment was so incredibly helpful fitting us in in time to make it to our plans without a hitch! Thank you thank you thank you so much!!! ❤️🐶🥰
Julie is very kind and did an amazing job with my senior ragdoll kitty who can be a bit difficult to groom! My cat is a rescue and is very sensitive and she seems very happy and unfazed after her appointment which is amazing because she usually is a bit stand-offish after being groomed! Julie must have been very kind with her which I really appreciate because my pets are my babies! My cat also looks amazing, she got a sanitary trim as well as some matts removed and she looks very clean and her fur is faded together nicely! I definitely recommend this pet spa for anyone looking to get their pet pampered!:)
Absolutely loved this place. Reasonable pricing, very kind and communicative staff, and my dog looks/feels great! It was his first time getting groomed and the staff treated him as their own. Looking forward to going back!
Brian and his team are the only groomers we work with when we are in the Phoenix area. Our little Pomchi mix, Coco, has tremendous anxiety with her grooms and we really appreciate how thoughtful the grooming team is with making her comfortable. We always get compliments after Coco gets her hair did too!
My cat Stripes and I had a wonderful experience at Uptown Pet Spa in Scottsdale! Julie is an amazing person and groomer! She made it possibly for Stripes to be seen right away & did a wonderful job on her grooming! Stripes is very sensitive and Julie was so gentle and put Stripes at ease. When I picked Stripes up she was very calm -no sign of distress whatsoever and looked so clean and well groomed! I definitely will be coming back here and highly recommend Uptown Pet Spa!
THANK YOU!!! My Maltipoo’s cut was perfect!! I was so stressed when our old groomer closed, wanted to say I’m so happy to have found people that are so patient and kind and willing to work with my (sometimes a bit cheeky) boy. You guys are the best and we’ll see you soon for his next appointment!

Call to BookFrequently 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.
