Grooming
Grooming can be a traumatic experience for dogs. Most dogs don't like baths, or going to the groomer. At Paws, we believe that doesn't have to be the case! We want your dog to have a positive, even relaxing grooming experience. To ensure this happens, we let the dogs set the pace. If a dog is getting stressed out, we let them take breaks. We don't have a quota of dogs we expect to get groomed every day, so we don't rush. When you drop your dog off for grooming there is no set pick up time. We will text you 20 minutes before your dog will be done, and then you can come pick up. However, this can mean your dog might take longer than expected if he/she is stressed out, or if the dog before your dog took longer. Please be patient, and know we are working to make sure every dog has a great time getting groomed!
​
I believe in a natural approach to grooming, so we groom with a line of all natural shampoos to prevent skin irritation and keep the chemicals away from your fur baby! We also offer oatmeal, aloe, and de-shed baths. Our shampoos are soap free, cruelty free and 100% biodegradable.
​
After grooming, your dog will be sent home with a report card and homemade treats!

At Paws, Abby is our Jack (or Jackie!) of all trades, with experience in several aspects of Paws in the City. She has worked at reception, in daycare now grooming. Her hobbies include taking her dogs to compete in agility shows, sheep herding and anything else dog related.

Abby is a graduate of Paragon School of Pet Groomings Groom Tech and Pet Stylist programs. Abby is a level 1 groomer with extra experience in bath/brush dogs. Abby has 3 Border Collies and a Papillon and has been grooming her dogs as long as they've been with her. Therefore it makes sense that grooming collies, labs, retrievers, huskies and other bath/brush dogs are her favorites. ​
Grooming Prices
Prices vary depending on the size and condition of the dog. Each dog will need an evaluation by our groomer to give exact price. Below are our ESTIMATES for grooming services.

Grooming dogs will be kept separate from daycare dogs unless they have an application and vet records on file. This is for the health of all dogs who come to our facility. If your dog is not able to play in the daycare, we do our best to allow them to be outside of a crate, but that isn't always available due to the number of dogs we groom. Our primary goal is to keep all dogs healthy and happy!!
​
All grooming dogs need to arrive 5 minutes before their schedule appointment time in order to discuss instructions and haircut preferences with staff. If you arrive more than 5 minutes late there will be a $15 late fee IF we are able to fit your dog in. ​
