I can’t say enough things about this pet shop! They truly went above and beyond when it came to caring for my cats. It’s rare to see them come home relaxed after a bath session. The staff took great care of them, and I could tell they were treated with so much love and attention. A special thank you to Rhaissa, the bather, who did an incredible job! She handled my cats with such kindness and professionalism, making sure they were comfortable. The front desk team was also fantastic — so welcoming and helpful, they made the whole experience seamless. If you’re looking for a place where your pets are treated like family, this is definitely the spot! Highly recommend.

This was my second time taking my cat Fluff to Brooklyn Pet Spa, and I was very satisfied with how it came out! They did his haircut even shorter this time, with a larger sanitary shave area which was perfect since his hair grows so quickly and usually requires a lot of brushing and grooming. If you have a cat, I definitely recommend getting a full sanitary shave. Even if it looks strange, your cat will love it and it grows back! Each time, I can tell he is so happy afterwards and loves his haircut too. He didn’t even seem stressed out after, even though he typically hates the carrier and being taken anywhere. I’m also a cat-sitter, and I’ve started recommending Brooklyn Cat Spa to other long-haired cat owners too. It’s not easy finding pet-grooming services for cats but this place does such a great job! 😊

I have two pets with different coats whom I take to Brooklyn Pet Spa and it's always 10/10! They dogs look wonderful, are happy after (and I have one dog who doesn't like the hair dryer which is how I ended up at this salon). The owner and the staff are all extremely attentive and address any concerns you have. Highly recommend.

RoseBella is my 6 month old Yorkie Poo who is anxious and goes through stress. I love the way she was treated and how she looked just as we pictured her. She came home stress and anxiety free. Was all play. I love the attention to detail the staff takes. Will continue to take her to her new grooming family. A+++++++

Thank you for the amazing experience 💜 they took great care of my shy kitty Luna, who needed some TLC and a haircut. She not only looks amazing, she is happy. Luna is a very shy and sweet girl, so I’m grateful she came back happy and feeling good. They went through all of my specifications, making sure she was getting the treatment and cut I wanted. She looks like herself but with less hair—like when she was a bb. Thank you again! We will be back.

Honestly, I have always felt they do a fine dog on my two boys I bring in every eight weeks. But last week my partner was given the wrong dog - after paying, brought out with his leash on while there were other customers in the waiting room, and walked across the street and a block down before realizing she was given a completely different dog (albiet cute and well groomed, sure). I can't stomach the thought of bringing my boys back there now - imagine if my dog had gone in a two block adventure and something happened to him, god forbid?

Honestly, becareful coming here! Speak to the boss directly and not the idiot on the phone I called to make an appointment because I specifically wanted my dog’s hair colored, which is why I chose this place. When I called, I explained what I wanted, and the woman gave me a price after asking which parts of the dog I wanted colored. I drove 40 minutes on the day of the appointment, only to have someone skip ahead of me, even though I told the receptionist I was there first. When it was finally my turn, I showed her pictures of the color I wanted, and she informed me that the person who does the coloring wasn’t there that day. This was incredibly frustrating, as coloring was the entire reason for my visit. She then admitted that she was the one I spoke to the day before on the phone and apologized for the miscommunication. She called her boss to try and fix the situation, but the price he quoted me was higher than what I was told during the initial call. I ended up wasting my entire morning because the receptionist didn’t provide accurate information or communicate properly. This experience was extremely disappointing and unprofessional.

I want to say, that the staff is amazing and professional at least to me. Even though they couldn't bathe and trim my male cat nails, was because my cat became panic and was becoming stress out because this was his 1st time going to the groomer. The owner contact me and told me that they would wash and trim my cat nails on him or her for free!🙂🙂 Wow that's simply amazing, I will find a place to sedate him so pet spa can wash and trim his nails and make him look good with a hair cut. (lol) I will be back to them!! Not to mention my best friend had her dog groomed there and he looks like a new dog!

We brought our puppy here for 2 puppy grooms. Both to help socialize him and get him a much needed haircut. They were very gentle with our 3.5 month old puppy, did a great job with both his cuts and at a very reasonable price.

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.
