First time I have ever used this groomer after not being able to reach Scooters previous groomer. Friendly awesome staff and when I picked him up he absolutely smelled so fresh clean and amazing. I actually have never in the 20 years of owning dogs picked up my dog from the groomers and had him smell so good I will be using them for all future grooming
They did a great job grooming my Australian Shepherd whose coat was in terrible condition for a great price. Her bottom and behind her ears were matted. I was so worried that they would just shave her and she would look horrible. I have two aussies and since the breed has a double coat I’ve always been worried someone would improperly groom them, so I’ve never used a groomer before. They did a fantastic job and exceeded my expectations. I will be bringing my other Aussie to them as well. Chelsea was her groomer!
Prompt and polite staff. We've always been happy with how our pup looks when they're done with her. Never considered going anywhere else.
My pet love going here. They take such a good care of her when grooming. they have a really affordable price and they are very responsive when trying to schedule an appointment. employees are very nice and professional. I have only been with them for about a year +.. LUNA and I Love this place. Also I can walk to the place :)
I am SO grateful to have found this place. My dog had an episode in the waiting room and they allowed me to stay and comfort him as he got his cut. They are very good and caring with all the animals. I was given great support and comfort. I'd recommend their service to anyone! Thank you ladies 🩷

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.
