We had been utilizing this dog grooming service on a monthly basis for four years. During our previous visits, we would drop off our dogs at 9 am and pick them up at 6 pm. Unfortunately, they would often be returned to us in an unsatisfactory condition, smelling wet and unclean, with excuses provided for the delay. We felt that the level of service we received was inconsistent with our expectations. After a four-year hiatus, we decided to give them another try. We brought our two corgis, following the same drop-off and pick-up procedure. However, they were again returned to us in a wet and unclean state, with untrimmed nails. The groomer, Tara, attributed the condition of our dog to the dog spilling water from its bowl, which seemed unlikely given the extent of the wetness. Notably, all other dogs had been picked up prior to ours, our dogs were in a kennel for 9 hours . We were subsequently instructed to bring our dogs back the following day at 9:30 am, which required us to adjust our schedule. However, Tara later notified us that she would arrive at 10 am, citing another reason for the change. Given the subpar service, we questioned the validity of their five-star rating. We couldn't help but wonder if the disparity in service was related to our Hispanic background. Despite our dissatisfaction, we paid and tipped, whereas a more suitable response from Tara would have been to offer a complimentary service or refund. read more

This has been a long over due review. I had been going to fur paws for more than 8 years. The last time I was there I had a very unpleasant experience. They always have taken a long time to groom my dog but this particular day it was out of line. I dropped off my dog at 1 and Tara said he would be ready at 5pm. I got a call around 4:30 saying they were behind because a groomer had called out that he would be ready at 6:30pm. I got another call at 6:15pm that they needed more time. By now I'm getting a weird feeling and my dog had special needs and I didn't feel comfortable anymore. I listened to my intuition and drove out there like 7:00pm. I get there and theres a groomer outside smoking and the place looks closed. I call and ask that I'm ready to pick him up no matter if she's done or not. She said 10 more mins and when I picked him up my doggy he looked exhausted and very thirsty. Tara insisted he had been walked and given plenty of water. I got very super sketchy vibes from her that night. I have a lot of concerns for starters why aren't people allowed inside? Secondly, why overbook and have these poor animal waiting in kennels. I read a review here that said a dog got a heart attack and sadly passed away after being here. Which made me want to speak up and share my experience. Please be cautious people. read more

I asked for a rounded face trim for my labradoodle, but they gave him a poodle-style cut instead. They blamed the change on a single mat on his face--unacceptable. On top of that, the pickup delays were real. It seems he was likely kept in a cage all day, possibly only let out once during seven hours. I'm truly disappointed and won't be returning. Posting this not to bash the business, although I'm not saying this helps. Posting for awareness, warn another owner, and hopefully change. The text I sent them after a hair cut that I absolutely hate. I'm extremely dissatisfied with the grooming service. His facial hair was cut far too short--this will take months to grow back. He returned home very thirsty, and *urinated on himself and his leash (our brand new leash came home smelling like pee) in the facility. Makes me question whether he had been properly taken care of. Frankly, he didn't smell freshly washed everywhere. The groomer should communicate directly with the parents. I don't know what the other woman described, but this grooming is nothing like what I told. His face wasn't even that matted--I told the groomer that only if it couldn't be brushed out, shaving (*of the mat, not the whole face) would be acceptable. I didn't say anything yesterday because I didn't want to get into a disagreement, but I do want to express how disappointed I am now. Also, I specifically requested no anal gland expression. You included that in your recap anyway, then mentioned it was just a habit to say it. As a former groomer, I know large dogs usually handle that naturally, and overdoing it can lead to dependency. So that shouldn't have been part of the service or apart of your speech since you say you groom larger dog breeds. You had my dog from 10 AM, (*4:40 pick up, the wash may have started at 1PM) and based on what I've read in reviews and what I experienced, the bath didn't start until much later. When I called, I was told it took longer due to fleas, but then you said he only had about 10. That doesn't justify a big delay. Looking back, I should've trusted my gut and the reviews I read the night before. I was uneasy when I realized no one is allowed inside the not kept clean facility. You don't have to live with this haircut for the next few months. I do. And I'm heartbroken to see my dog looking butchered. I tipped $20 at pickup out of relief to have him back, but honestly, I should've left much less. read more

I live like a minute from this place, I've always driven past it but never stopped! But after my first dog groomer packed up and moved. I had no choice but to give this place a try. And I can't thank God enough! The ladies who run this business are very very polite and genuine! And they did an amazing job on my dog Oreo! Since today was my first time going, I was filling out paper work, and I'm talking and chatting with one extremely polite lady like I've known her all my life! It was like dropping my dog off to 2 friends I haven't seen in years, and we were catching up! And the prices! I was expecting to pay more! Fur paws grooming! I couldn't be any happier with my overall experience! I thank you so very very very much! You did an amazing job you are truly the best! Thank you for welcoming me and Oreo in with open arms! And treating us like family! You ladies did an amazing job!! read more

My original groomer went out of business, but the owner referred me to Fur Paws. Tara and her team are great with my dog, they listen to what I want and they make it happen. I love the cuts that she does on my dog and cares for my dog when I am not around. She text me a time when she is ready and I love it. She is very trustworthy and I always get my pretty dog back clean and cut. Thank you Fur Paws for what you do! read more

I have been taking my pups here for years. They are normally booked a couple weeks in advance, but I managed to squeeze in my little girl in...thankfully. They are very friendly and treat my pups with love and respect. Communicating when I need to pick them up, but understanding that I need to work as well and then get them. they go over and beyond to make sure the pups are well taken care of...for sure. I will be back. read more

If it wasn't for the expert groomers here at this amazing place my dog would have continued to suffer with a non visible cyst on his bottom that was causing major issues. Thank you for catching it early and directing us to our vet to treat it. read more

I need to add to my review because I still think about this to this day. It's been several months since I brought my dog here, and it took almost two months for her to feel like herself again. Ever since that visit, she has never been the same. She's now terrified of almost everything--if I bring out a broom or if she hears even the slightest noise, she becomes extremely frightened. I will NEVER bring my dog here again. I'm honestly so upset because I truly believe she was mishandled during her time there! They don't even deserve a star but for me to share awareness I had to select it! read more

Listen y'all, Tara HAS to have some SERIOUS patience skills. My dog gets SOOO upset whenever you go near her face/paws, not in a way where she'll bite you, but def. nibbles and moves around A LOT. We've been going to Fur Paws Grooming for almost a year now and every time we drop her off, we know our doggo (Zelda) will be in good hands. She is super good with dogs and you can tell she loves them. My doggo is a rescue so she's INSANELY skid-dish around new ppl. She knows Tara now, does it mean she likes getting groomed? Of course not she hates getting groomed even when we do it, but at least she knows she'll be in good hands. The more nervous your dog is the more time it will take so please keep that in mind!! She makes sure your dog isn't overwhelmed, which we always appreciate. We love Tara and all the hard work she does for the pups in Hawthorne. THANK YOU FUR PAWS GROOMING read more

Had another great grooming day for our fur baby Katana. We have been going to Fur Paws for almost two years now with our frenchie baby, and we have been so happy with the service and care Fur Paws has given to our little wiggle butt. The owner Tara and her staff are so nice and professional, they always keeps me updated about how it's going and lets me know the staff loves all the kisses that Katana gives them and that she is a funny wiggle butt. I know that my doggie is in good hands and Katana comes out smelling and looking so nice and she is so happy to have her little spa day. Thank you Tara and Fur Paws staff for the great care you have given to us and our precious fur baby. read more

I noticed a few reviews here and then so I decided to give this place a try for my baby Gizmo. When I first called, I spoke to Tara who was very friendly and answered all my questions which I loved since I was a bit scared to send him to a new place. And today 6/10/25, my baby had his first appointment with Stephanie, and she was the sweetest thing from what my mom told me, she was so loving towards Gizmo and was very attentive! I would 100% be coming back and hope to get Stephanie again! Thank you Fur Paws Grooming! read more

I've had Prime for a year now and I've groomed him myself a couple of times but there was always something off when I do it. SO! I decided to bring him to professionals and see what he's really supposed to look like after a bit of pampering. This place came highly recommended by a few of my pet parent neighbors, so I thought I'd give them a try. APPOINTMENTS ONLY, so don't bother trying to walk-in. I finally gave them a call and the next available they had was not for another 8 days. (I took that as a good sign - they are popular!) I dropped Prime off for a 9am appointment. Since this is my first time, I didn't really know how this worked. Tara, who was very friendly off the bat, asked how short I want his cut to be. I just asked her to make him look cute. "Okay, it'll be a few hours, should be done no later than 1pm." They were true to their word: I got that phone call close to 1pm. VERDICT: Prime looks great, and even more important, he looks comfortable. I like that they were careful with his facial hair, and I know that for fact because they didn't cut any of his whiskers. (It must have been a pain trying to get around it as that puppy tends to move a lot. That's always a plus.) They also trimmed his nails (which is MY biggest issue) and he smells so dang nice! I fully understand why they come highly recommended. I am beyond satisfied and definitely happy with the work they've done. We will come back once Prime needs another round of grooming. read more

We started bringing our dogs to Tara about a year ago and didn't have any issues until very recently. Three months ago we dropped off our dogs for their 10am appt for a full groom. The shop "closes" at 6pm, so after not hearing anything all day I finally texted her at 5:24pm to ask when the dogs would be ready. They were ready at 630pm. Tara apologized and said that they were down one groomer. We figured it was a one time thing and didn't hesitate to make another appt with them on May 31 again at 10am. We dropped them off at the agreed upon time for a full groom (this includes a bath and a haircut, although the important part to us is the haircut). This time I get a text at 5:22pm saying, to my shock, that the dogs won't be ready for a while yet and did I want to just pick them up and bring them the next day. At this point the dogs had been with them for 7.5 hours, I felt so bad for the dogs, and I figured the groomers were tired, so we chose to go get them. When my husband picked them up he said he was simply handed the dogs and when he asked what time tomorrow he was told to drop them off any time between 930am and 10am. I did not take them back since it appears it was going to be another "drop off and we will see when we get to them" type of situation. That Sunday I didn't receive any communication from Tara, I was disappointed and upset but thought I would just let it go. Later that week I get a text asking if I'm going to bring the boys back or if I just want to pay for the services rendered (the dogs were bathed). This really upset me because now I feel like the narrative is that I don't want to pay for the bath they got. In the end I paid for the bath and let her know I would never use her services again. To her credit Tara was very apologetic, but at the end of the day it is absolutely unacceptable to me that this shop would keep my dogs 7+ hours, and to add insult to injury, not be able to finish the service, then expect me to bring them the next day for a do-over. When this happened the first time three months prior we asked Tara to just communicate with us. We live a few blocks away from the shop and we understand things happen. The lack of communication is simply not acceptable considering these are they are dealing with; it's not like I'm being inconvenienced by a late/missing delivery. Tara did recommend two other businesses in the area- for now I'm staying away from all of these shops and have found a mobile groomer that will not keep the dogs all day. read more

Hi everyone, I'm sorry but I am so disappointed. I don't really leave reviews because I am understanding, especially about dogs and humans make mistakes so I get it. but this time I really don't understand how someone can mess my puppy up this bad. I've been to a few groomers and decided to try this place out because it's close to home and great yelp reviews. Specifically looked at picture reviews of dogs similar to his coat so I can have an idea of what to expect. I never expect anything perfect but something close to it. Never have I ever had someone cut him this bad where they shaved off all his hair on his ears. I left two stars because last minute booking and Tara was nice over the phone. At first I was sketchy because I never been to a groomers where they don't allow u in the inside even when u pick your dog up, but businesses have their own policies so I get it. However, this cut is so unacceptable and inexcusable. The groomer even mentioned the ears may have to be a little shaved down, because the matting and I let her know don't shave it all the way down and I get the complete opposite where u can see the skin of his ears. I've been to plenty places that can demat ears and based off the review on here, clearly shows before and after of dematting the ears. I should have known when she mentioned she's fast so it made me think well do u take your time bc I'm not looking for a rush, I'm looking for simple clean and closest to what I want. If I was ignorant, I would have never paid, nor tipped on top of that. Do better please. read more

I cannot thank or praise the Fur Paws staff enough! Henrie is a pretty anxious guy and absolutely hates having his nails trimmed. Every vet/groomer interaction he's had previously left us feeling defeated because no one was willing to give him the patience he needs to get comfortable in a new space with new people. When I dropped him off, he was nervous and tense, but the staff was so calming and welcoming I knew he was in good hands. By the time I picked him up, his demeanor and body language was much more relaxed. Most importantly, he finally had a successful nail trim! We will definitely be back. Thank y'all so much for being so kind and gentle with Hen :) read more

I've been taking my golden retriever for many years. He recently had knee replacement surgery so I was wary about taking him to get groomed. He needed grooming really bad so I took him and he was treated with the gentleness and kindness he needed.

I highly recommend this shop as they take a kind approach and listen to their customers requests. read more

I've been here twice now since the pandemic and I was not disappointed each time. The person over the phone was very friendly and informative. They do have limited operating hours, so it might take longer to grab an appointment (so make sure to call ahead and plan ahead). Other than that, there isn't much of a problem at all. They were very accommodating and attentive to the style I wanted for my dog. It was also nice to know that they accept cash and card. Another good thing is that they don't let people inside because of COVID, so you pick up and drop off at the front door. Will probably take my dog again when it's time to get groomed! read more
