I have an older cat who couldn't groom herself due to some dental issues and I reached out to Elena to see about de-matting. The communication was very punctual and thorough from the beginning. When I dropped her off Elena requested 3 hours so that she could give my cat breaks since it's a stressful process. It turned out my cat needed to be shaved instead, which was actually a blessing. Elena communicated with me and sent pictures before doing anything different than we discussed. I was SO impressed with how careful she was. She obviously hand shaved my cat being super cautious of any little growths that might be under the surface and blended the hair that she left on her head and feet so nicely! I included pictures (don't mind her wrinkles...she's 14!) Since I've been home I noticed her ears were not only cleaned with her bath, but trimmed up as well. She gets medicine in them daily and I did not mention this to Elena but the fact that she noticed was really nice. Her price was very fair and she was so kind and caring. I highly recommend her and we will return for sure!
Today was the first time using Elena’s pet grooming. My Buttercup has severe anxiety and hates to be groomed. She has not been groomed for about six months due to this. I reached out to Elena today, and she was able to get my pet in the same day. Upon arrival, Buttercup was being hesitant and did not want to be handed over. Elena was very patient and gentle with Buttercup, and finally was able to get her. After she was done, Elena messaged me to pick her up. My Buttercup was soo cute! She had to be cut low do Buttercup hair being tangled bad, and I was aware of this. I am so thankful and grateful for Elena for her service. She was amazing! Highly recommend!!
Elena did a great job with my 13 year old dog. Chloe decided she was going to act like a grumpy old lady and give Elena a hard time. Elena worked her magic and was able to calm her down and give Chloe a beautiful full groom. Her prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend Elena.
I am pleased with Elena’s grooming of my Scottish Terrier puppy. It is hard to find someone aware of the breeds standards along with the skill of stripping. His wavy fur was well blended all the way through to his skirt. I am so happy to have found Elena and look forward to growing out my pup’s skirting.
I am very grateful to Elena for her kindness and attention to detail! I have a miniature schnauzer, and he requires not just a haircut but hand stripping. Elena is one of the few groomers who truly understands the specifics of this breed and offers the appropriate services. My dog's ears have never been so thoroughly cared for and cleaned as after visits to Elena. I highly recommend!
Elena, best grommer in Austin. She professional. My dog loves Elena.
We've already been using Elena's services twice for the grooming of our beloved Bichon Frise, Cooper. She is amazing and very professional. The quality of haircut is exceptional, with no matted hair and a great shape. Cooper loves the way he is treated there! We're happy to recommend Elena to everyone, and we will continue using her service! We're thrilled that we found such a great groomer in Austin!
I would give 10 stars if I could! Elena is WONDERFUL... super nice and does a fantastic job grooming. My boy has never looked so good! And the cute pics she sends were so good! I highly recommend!
My 2 pomeranian mixes look adorable - I love their bows too! They feel so happy after getting fully groomed and they smell so lovely! It’s easy to support local and at an affordable rate! Thank you!
Elena did an amazing job on my little yorkie! I told her to just make him cute and she did! Will always use her again.

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.
