Omg what an incredible and kind person, so good with our cats, super communicative, attentive and kind. Scheduling was super easy, rates seem extremely fair - especially considering the quality of service. Will absolutely be asking for their help next time my kitties need a grooming or a bath. So appreciative for them, cannot recommend them enough. read more

This was a great experience. I couldn't come in with my first cat due to limited parking. But when I finally did get parked and came in, she was sitting on the floor with my cat on her chest, deshedding her belly fur. My cat was so comfortable with her! I wish I had taken a picture but I didn't want to spoil the moment. My second cat; who does not like being picked up was equally comfortable and at ease when I brought her the following weekend. I am lookng forward to returning in 3 months and doing this all again. It's a very personal and caring service that she provides. She is gentle and truly loves cats!!! So happy to have found her. read more

ABSOLUTELY AMAZED! I just had the pleasure to take my fur baby (Henna) to her first cat grooming session, and let me tell you how happy and comfortable Henna felt during this process! We are beyond grateful for the comfort and welcoming environment Eliya provided us as soon as we arrived. Overall: The booking process, communication and experience were all key to my cat's success in her first grooming session! Thank you, Eliya, we hope to see you soon, I'm definitely recommending all my friends/family! For anyone looking for a Cat-Only grooming salon, don't hesitate - do your baby a favor and PLEASE BOOK! read more

Eliya is truly a cat whisperer. She loves what she does and that is obvious in the care she takes. I brought in a Persian cat that was really grumpy. I had only had him for a week and he had some matting that needed attention badly. I'm so glad I found the Gato Salon. She is so well worth it. She is communicative - I believe she's a one person show so text her and she'll get back to you when she's between clients. She was able to get me in same day luckily! She lets the cat walk around and explore. Her energy works so well with the cats - it's like there is a mutual understanding. When I came back to pick him up, he was absolutely gorgeous and I think he liked her more than he liked me! LOL! She had the cutest little bow/bib on him and he is so much happier after having a good grooming. I would recommend Eliya to anyone that wants to have their cat babied. read more

I have adopted a new, shy kitty. I wasn't sure how she would handle a grooming. Eliya immediately made my little girl comfortable. She bathed, brushed & trimmed all with a soft gentle hand. I thought since my kitty was new to our home and still adapting that this would set her back but Eliya calmed her and she came home smelling wonderful and looking like she was ready for the "catwalk"!!! I can't wait for her next groom!! read more

What an amazing experience especially for my kitten Ollie! I cannot recommend Gato Salon enough. Eliya is the sweetest and most kind person. The care and love she expressed for Ollie while grooming him was incredible!! So much so that Ollie did not want to leave. I'm recommending Gato Salon to every cat parent I know!! read more

I AM SO SO SO HAPPY!!! This was my two cats first grooming experience ever and it went great!! Eliya is super sweet and i love that she made this experience so easy! My two boys look so good and they're so soft! She pays extra close to detail and was gentle with both. I love how much she cares for each cat like if they're her own. I am so glad her place is so close to us and happy we have a cat grooming place around here. Thank you for everything and for the treats! My boys looked them. read more

Eliya and Gato Salon is beyond five stars. Professional, treats my Pepe like hes her own, and he responds back in the same way. His grooming experience was a first, but it was not the last nor will it be. Gato Salon is a rarity, and Eliyas temperament, patience, and genuine caring are also a rarity. She even offered after the first grooming to come to my home if I thought it would be better for Pepe, or more convenient for me. Beyond reasonably priced and her integrity and character is so refreshing. I trust her and so does my baby. Priceless!!!!! Thank you Gato Salon.... read more

Omg she is amazing! My cat was fighting her the entire time but she didn't give up and she did an amazing job! My furry animal lots so much better read more

Eliya is by far the best cat groomer in Los Angeles. We took our 11 year old persian cat to her after our previous groomer was no longer working. It was the best decision made for our cat. She was a joy to meet and talk to and was just wonderful with our baby. No issues handling her extra weight and older aged skin. My cat was super comfortable with her and was sleeping soundly as we drove back home. Highly recommend Gato Salon for any type of cat you have. Will continue to be a loyal customer. read more

Eliya is such a gem. I was so worried for my anxious boy to get groomed but he had so much matted fur that it had to be done. Eliya provided such a comforting and soothing space, she was able to get all the mats out and bathe my cat! My cat is so incredible happy and I couldn't be happier!! Thank you so much read more

Eliya is the best cat groomer I've ever worked with. My kitties had a traumatizing experience with another groomer in the past so they're afraid to get their nails cut. She keeps the cats completely calm and is very gentle with them. Her energy and skill makes the kitties feel at ease and they love seeing her. She's the only person I trust with grooming them. Eliya is truly the best! I highly recommend working with her and visiting her new space at Gato Salon in West Adams. read more

Super clean and cute space, calm vibe, and my cat was treated so gently. The groom came out amazing soft, neat, and clearly done with care. Eungam was friendly and communicative. Quick, professional, zero stress. Would absolutely book again.!! read more

Owner truly is a cat whisperer. She made my cat feel super comfortable and finished quite fast like within an hour? She even sent adorable videos and pictures. I will be bringing my other cat to her. It's a bit pricey but worth the cost considering how calm and relaxing my cat's experience was. read more

I had never been to a cat groomer before but my female cat Ro had a urinary issue about a week prior where she ended up peeing on herself. Even after getting a sanitary shave at the vet Ro still had some urine in her fur on her back legs and smelled a little off. I had tried to use a couple different "waterless shampoos" until I finally gave up and started research cat groomers in my area and came across Eliya at Gato Salon. I cannot say enough great things about my experience. I loved being able to text with Eliya prior to the grooming to really let her know my concerns and tell her about Ro's temperament (and I even sent her pictures of Ro's behind to show her exactly what areas were the problem !!) As soon as I arrived and stepped inside I couldn't believe how cute it was ! Eliya was so calming and gentle with Ro. I understood that it was a possibility that Ro might need to have even MORE fur shaved off to get rid of the urine smell and I let Eliya know I was okay with that. She slowly shaved off areas and even let me "approve" the amount before bathing her, which I greatly appreciated. The entire process took about 45-60 minutes and Ro emerged looking happy and silkier than ever !! I highly highly recommend Eliya at Gato Salon. I cannot say enough great things about the experience and I will definitely be bringing my other 4 cats (5 cats total including Ro LOL) to her whenever needed ! read more

Eliya is so nice and patient. She answered all my questions and didn't mind that it took me a week to figure out what time and service best worked for me and my cat, Flower. The space is really nice. Fyi, and it's not an issue at all, Eliya does ask for you to take off your shoes when you enter the salon. She will have slides for you to put on. Eliya sent me pictures and updates throughout the whole experience. attached are the pics she sent me. I really liked the whole grooming service. I def will be back read more

What a great find this was! My cat, Chase, had been treated for fleas at the vet but needed a bath to get rid of all of the flea dirt that was on him. After googling "cat groomers", I found Gato Salon and what a blessing that was! Eliya was able to bathe, clip, clean, and beautify him without any sedation at all and without getting bitten (at least, that's what she said - maybe she was being polite?) which is amazing since he's a ferocious beast when he wants to be - I have the scars to prove it. He's so clean and soft now thanks to the calm and soothing Eliya. I will definitely be back! read more

Exceptional! Highly recommended--when I think of grooming services to recommend, Gato Salon is #1 on that list. The service is communication-based and sedation-free, unlike most other options, and the owner clearly has a truly extraordinary amount of expertise here. 11/10! What are you waiting for?? read more

The service was exceptional. She was very knowleged and caring for my baby. Will come back for sure read more

Absolutely thrilled with my experience at Gato Salon! The owner is incredibly kind and personable, and made my cats feel right at home. The grooming services were top-notch, and I couldn't be happier with how clean my cats look and smell! Her expertise and care truly shine through in the exceptional results.She sent me photos of my cats during their time there and even gave me some snacks for them to enjoy at home. I highly recommend Gato Salon to all cat owners looking for a professional and compassionate grooming experience! read more
