Staff was so friendly and knowledgeable. Set my fears of leaving my fur baby with strangers at ease. Even uploaded photos for me to see her interactions and she looked so happy.
The newest location of City Paws located in TangleTown is now open. We stopped in, met the staff, played with friends and are looking forward to returning for more fun… come join us.
City Paws Pet Club is an incredible place to take your dogs! The staff are genuinely kind, helpful, and passionate about caring for dogs. They are always attentive, patient, and understanding—not just with the dogs but with us humans too. We completely trust them, and it’s clear our dogs love every minute they spend there. It’s a fantastic way to ensure they get the stimulation and exercise they might miss during Minnesota’s frigid winters. After a day at daycare, they come home happy and exhausted, and it feels great knowing they’ve had such a positive experience. We can’t recommend City Paws Pet Club enough!
Fantastic pet care! I leave both of my dogs here for boarding when I leave town! They do an excellent job! They provide extra add-ons such as one-on-one walks, nail trims, wash, etc... Try also have web cams set up so you can check in on your pets at any time! The service is wonderful! They are highly recommended!
Always amazing daycare, friendly staff who know my dog and me by name. Tried nail grinding for the first time there - service turned out great.
I knew when I picked City Paws Pet Club for my puppy's daycare, I was picking a spot that would love my dog as much as I did. I adore City Paws for how excited they are when they see my dog walk in the door. They treat all the dogs so great. I LOVE that they have fun activities/festivities for the pups throughout the year, such as a 4th of July "grill out", or Beach Party in August, or Halloween Party.). The staff is also so accommodating, making bookings so easy. And the groomer within the business makes it that much more convenient. I will never regret picking City Paws to care for my puppy while I'm at work.
City Paws always helps us with our dog. We take him there for day care and pick up and drop off is a breeze. We were new dog owners - our dog had some behavioral issues, and they matched us with a wonderful trainer Jessie who whipped our Bernadoodle into shape and now he is less of a hurricane and now only a mild tropical storm. Thanks to Cody and the whole City Paws team for all they do.
Edward absolutely, positively LOVES city paws. He's been going since he was 3 months old. We moved to different state and came back; it was as if he never left. He is SO excited on his doggy daycare days with his besties! The staff is the absolute best. We just LOVE City Paws Uptown!
I am blown away (and maybe happy cried) at the service provided at City Paws - from the front desk to the groomer. I dropped off a nervous 8month puppy that had never been fully groomed before, that had a previous failed/bad experience at another company, and was returned a beautiful groomed HAPPY puppy. Dustin was amazing in easing my own concerns and I knew leaving Leo (my pup) with him that he was in good hands. Everything was explained perfectly, the groom made Leo look like the shining star he is, and the price was very reasonable. I will be recommending City Paws to all my puppy friends and will certainly be back once Leo is up for another grooming session. THANK YOU DUSTIN AND CITY PAWS! (before and after --- Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier)
We love CityPaws. More importantly our DOG loves it! The staff is caring, conscientious, and skilled in working with all kinds of dogs. It's been great for our buddy!

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.
