A day I will never forget is the first time I took my badly matted Persian kitty to Samantha's care. His fur was so matted, it started to form "pelts" closer to his skin. I knew this would not be an easy job since he is a stressed kitty, and I had been traumatized with past grooming appointments that went horribly. Samantha went above and beyond to make the process as stress-free as possible for him. Once he started acting too upset, she was honest and caring, and suggested we came back the next week to complete his full service so the stress would not cause him any harm. I cannot put to words how much I appreciate her for doing that knowing how bad his reactions to stress can get. It truly showed her caring nature and love for pets. This is when I knew I found a gem and an exquisite professional. She makes sure to be informative which is something I value so much. She took time to explain how matting and pelting form, and what steps we can take to maintain their fur at home and not let it get to such extremes. I adore Samantha and her work. She is an absolute sweetheart, who cares deeply for her clients and their well-being. My 3 cats are extremely attached to me, absolutely hate car rides and overall getting out of the home, and Samantha is always willing to make the experience as smooth as possible. She is extremely patient, and honest with her work as well. My three cats have gone to her about three times now, and came back with fabulous results every single time. Their fur also became easier to maintain after we started seeing her. So grateful. Here's the persian kitty in question for cat tax.

You won't find anybody better to take care of your fur babies! Not only does my little boy always look so fabulous but when he comes home, he's very relaxed. She does a great job and she does it with tremendous care and cats aren't easy.

Breezy before he got groomed

Yesterday was my first time coming to Catington And probably one of the best decisions ive taken this year lol Samantha is such a wonderful and lovely person to talk to. She was so careful and trying to make my cat feel safe since it was his first getting groomed. I was embarrassed cause he has matts but Samantha took care of them without an issue Breezy looked so precious and happy he no longer had matts Cant wait to see her again!

Should've wrote this sooner, but back in January we had an amazing experience at Catington with Samantha. We had just adopted our first long-haired cat and he was a bit dirty and greasy. I found it hard to find a good cat groomer online and stumbled upon the cutest name, Catington. I called and talked directly to Samantha, and she took her time and talked with me and calmed all my fears about grooming since this was our first time taking a cat to be groomed. The experience was great. Since our cat was already a senior when we adopted him, we were a bit nervous, but Samantha was amazing and made us feel at ease. and since this is a private grooming session, it was fast and our cat looked great! We plan on bringing him here again soon!

If I could give 10 stars I would. Having never had my young cat groomed before, I was very anxious about the whole process, but SO thankful for Catington and Samantha - she is hands down the best out there. Before I even had my first appointment locked in, we spoke on the phone about the process and what I am looking for/what treatment I should initially schedule for. She was super patient, knowledgeable, let me ask a million questions and did not rush me. Once I had my appointment and brought my cat in, it was clear my cat was very uncomfortable after the first few minutes of grooming. Samantha told me she didn't want to stress her out for 2 hours just to get a groom done, so she sent us home and recommended I get some calming meds from the vet - which I did a week later. Samantha was SO flexible and made me feel so relaxed about the whole thing, even though I felt guilty about taking up an appointment spot we didn't end up using! We kept in touch the whole time after, she checked in regularly and I asked more questions, and finally rescheduled her groom after a med test run at home. The second time around went flawlessly!! We were in and out in just under 2 hours, after a dematting treatment, degreasing, and deshedding (along with the usual nails/teeth/cut etc.). It was worth the price 10x over for most wonderful private experience. We also got recommendations on brushes, shampoos, and further care from Samantha. Not to mention the studio is adorable and tranquil, lots of room to wait while the grooming is happening (I worked on my laptop the whole time), clean pristine and is just one cat at a time for the utmost care and attention. My girl has NEVER looked better, and did not seem traumatized from the whole situation so I know she was gentle and kind with her and the studio didn't frighten her much. I can't thank Samantha enough for her kindness and patience. We are so lucky to have met her and will be customers for life - I will never take my cat anywhere else!!!

15 year old Callie feeling like a kitten again!
Carolyn H.

I found this cat groomer because of the rave reviews here on Yelp and because it is close to my house and boy, I am so glad I did! My 15 year old cat, Callie, has been having trouble cleaning her own fur as she gets older and gets upset when I get out a brush. I have never had a cat with such terrible matting. Samantha examined her and knew exactly what to do! In fact, she is so kind and connected to animals, she asked if we could break it into 2 sessions at no extra charge so that it wouldn't be so overwhelming for Callie, especially since she has arthritis. Samantha must have magic powers because she managed to undo the matting without shaving off Callie's fur. Callie adored her and is now strutting around like a young kitten since she feels beautiful again. I really can't compliment Samantha enough-- she is truly amazing and I'd so glad I found her!

Front of the building! How cute!

Listen if you own a cat or cats this is the best groomer I have found! I have been traumatized by a few so-called cat groomers and so has my cat. There has been multiple times where I've picked up my cat and it looks like a child had took scissors and went to town on my cat. Now, having said that to finding Sam by pure luck. It has been a game changer. I can now rest assured, bringing my baby here knowing not only my cat is going to have a great experience, but he's also going to look handsome. And it shows on his face! Thank you Sam! Your passion for our babies shows through your work.

Vasia - Siberian female cat.
Lewis N.

We took our cat Vasia to Catington for grooming this past weekend and everything went really well. The studio is immaculate! My daughter and I waited comfortably while Vasia had her appointment with Samantha who was extremely sensitive to all grooming needs. Vasia not only looked beautiful afterwards but seemed to be more comfortable as well. Thanks again!

See all

Cute merchandise too to dress up your dog or get doggie home supplies! Great return policy. If you don't like anything just come back and return/ exchange. I don't think you need to show them a receipt as they will have your order history in their system if you sign up for their free membership.

Will not be returning to this establishment…read more My husband called on Saturday (5/2/26) to ask if they accepted walk-ins, as we recently moved to the area and were looking for a new groomer for our dog. The receptionist told us to come in right away since we were only a few minutes away. When we arrived, the same receptionist acted as if she had no idea about the call. We had to repeat ourselves, which made the interaction feel awkward and unwelcoming from the start. Instead of greeting us warmly, she seemed dismissive and inconvenienced. Things got worse when our dog was taken to the back. She is a small dog (under 20 lbs) and naturally a bit anxious, which we communicated. Rather than handling her with care, the staff member repeatedly pulled her by the leash when she hesitated, which clearly scared her. No effort was made to comfort her--no treats, no gentle approach, and no attempt to pick her up to help her feel safe. After seeing our dog being handled this way, we immediately asked for her back and left. As feedback to the owner: friendly customer service and gentle handling of animals should be the standard. Unfortunately, that was not our experience here.

I was a bit worried about having to rely on antibiotics or heavier medications, but the team took a more holistic approach and worked with me to address the root of the problems. Over time, we were able to clear everything up without using treatments that could have impacted his immune system. I really appreciated how thoughtful and patient they were throughout the process, and how they took the time to explain things clearly. If you're looking for a vet that considers the bigger picture and supports your pet's overall health, this is a great place to go.

Yelp's reviews have mostly been helpful, until this time. My cat's blood test came back with…read moreextremely low cell count. His vet arranged for him to go to E.R. immediately. He received necessary procedures including blood transfusion to stabilize his condition. I did not want to leave him at ER for more tests and observations because I have never had any pets survived ER stays. We did receive blood transfusion and medications which seemed to be working and were told that he needed medical attention in order to survive. Since his regular vet was helpless, I decided to look into alternatives. I found this place on Yelp with raving reviews, and like most pet owners in desperate situations, I decided to give it a try. I first spoke with I believe her name was Lyric. She was very charming and well spoken, and made an appointment immediately. I also recieved a call from Yael after I emailed over my cat's medical records and was told that she thinks my cat simply had urinary track infection and she can help. During our visit, Yael and Lyric worked together and performed a basic exam, then I was told that we need a biofeedback scan which will tell us exactly what's going on. This " procedure " consist of sticking two wet pads somewhere on the underside of my cat, and the wires connected the wet pads to a laptop which supposedly would feed all the information to a program. I thought that seemed overly simple, but I was in a state of panic, I chose to believe it's some advanced science that I didn't understand. I was told that they will rush the result but it will be later that evening or next day. Then Yael proceeded to prescribe a list of remedies which is mostly supplements including a jar of homemade yogurt. The visit, including all the remedies I was told were necessary, came to just under $700. They also only accept cash or Zelle payments, no credit cards. The instruction I was given was to stop the medicationd from ER immediately and only take what was prescribed by Yael, and I did. At home, shortly after I gave my cat what Yael prescribed, he started vomiting violently and was visibly weaker. I call and told Yael what was happening and was met with loud, non-stop yelling, telling me that her remedies were right and I must follow her instructions. The biofeedback report showed pages of colorful breakdown and included readings of "pepsine secretion coefficient" and "small intestine peristalsis function" values, plus "protien metabolism value", "liver fat content value", plus kidney, lung function analysis, even blood circulation system analysis, etc. This program of theirs can read all these from two wet pad sticked to the skin of my cat? I ultimately decided to consult with a licensed vet, and luckily I found Dr. Sharp from a referral, and my cat's conditions improved without complications within days at a quarter of the cost. He is healthy and happy today. As pet parents, we are vulnerable to be taken advantage of when our pets become critically ill. I hope my experience can be helpful to anyone in similar situation and can make proper decisions for both your pets and you.
