I was a ball of nerves getting our sassy cat a groom but Olya knows how to handle her cats. She is courteous and professional, and Chloe got a great bath and brushing. As sassy as our cat is (she hisses and meows in protest but is still polite), she got a great session and I'm glad Olya was able to give her a good brushing and nail trimming without any issues. read more

We used Kitty Spaw for my old Maine Coone cat, and he was treated very well, Olya was friendly and very professional. That was first time for our kitten, but he trusted Olya and he was not disappointed. I'm strongly recommending Kitty Spaw as a place where you can bring your loved one cat, especially if your cat has a long fur! read more

This place is amazing. They gave my cat an unbelievable haircut. I got compliments day and night every time anyone saw my pussy.

I honestly didn't know how this was going to go since my cat usually hates anyone touching her paws. The van pulled up right on time this morning. Olga was our groomer and she was super nice. She handled my cat Luna so well even though Luna was hissing at first. We got the lion cut to help with all the shedding in the house. It took about an hour and she brought Luna back inside looking great. No mess left behind either. read more

We had Olya do tabby's first every groom. She was beginning to mat in some areas and just needed a refresh. We weren't sure how she would do since she was a stray 3 years ago. But Kitty Spaw was amazing! Olya took her time and took breaks when they saw our baby stressing out or not liking something. If something was scaring her(blow drier), they would try something else (vacuum box). They also took our preferences seriously(leaving her face hair ungroomed). Our girl came back looking so pretty! Would definitely bring her back and recommend for cats! read more

My senior cat has been getting a bit scruffy lately but he gets way too stressed out for a traditional groomer visit anymore. I reached out to Kitty Spaw and Olya brought the mobile van right to my house which made the whole process so much smoother. She was incredibly gentle and used a waterless shampoo that didn't freak my cat out, and he even got all the knots out of his tail. To be fair, I thought it would be way more expensive for the convenience of them coming to me, but the price was actually very reasonable for the quality of service. read more

We had a great experience. Olya came out to do a chenile cut on our long haired cat. Olya was on time and came in to meet Daisy first and even helped us get her in her crate to take her outside. The appointment was a lot shorter than I thought it would be which was great. She trimmed her claws, gave her the cut and cleaned her behind. When we got daisy back she was all clean and trimmed. Olya was through and did a great job. We will be calling back to have her come out again. read more

Olya is our new go to cat groomer. As a first time cat owner I was impressed with the care and attention my cat received from start to finish. The experience was seamless and stress free. Olya is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about what she does. She gave me advice for home maintenance routines and insight into why indoor cats need grooming maintenance regardless of fur length. read more

My cat is a 15 pound long hair cat and had not had grooming in over a year. Due to various bad events that had caused stress to the family, I had postponed his grooming for fear of causing him more stress. In fact he came back very calm, very happy on top of very beautiful. Clean cut, shiny and fresh fur and nice round face. He seems to really enjoy his new hair cut based on the way he carries himself. He must have been hot and felt gross with the long unclean hair. I am so very happy with the provided services. I will not hesitate to bring him back in a few months. Thank you so much to Olya read more

My cat is extremely fussy. He is not aggressive, but is easily distressed. I worry about him whenever we get any grooming done because I don't want him to be scared. Olya was very patient with him and helped him not be afraid. She worked quickly so he could be done sooner, but still did everything necessary. Perfect speed and quality. read more

I can't express how grateful I am for the incredible care and skill of Olya. My cat, Stinky, sweet but extremely sensitive male, adopted from the streets, has always been wary of being handled. Grooming has been a major challenge, until now. Stinky, who usually bolts at the sound of anything, but Olya has great gentleness and patience. The grooming itself was flawless, the best he's ever looked, and he came home relaxed, not rattled. read more

After filling out the requested time, date, address, credit card, cats age, shots, services needed, special requests, etc., I received two text messages saying my appointment was confirmed. The next day I received another confirmation of my appointment and about an hour later I received a phone call from the owner. My appointment for my senior cat (which they by the way charge extra for) was to simply trim her nails and shave out a knot. She is now an indoor cat and doesn't groom herself. The owner went on and on about my senior cat that's indoors now needs a bath and a lions cut. I tried to explain to her over and over again that she's a senior cat that doesn't go outdoors and doesn't need a bath nor a "lions cut". This went on for about 10 minutes. Finally I let her know in my nice voice if we could trim my cats nails and remove the spot on this visit I would consider all the "additions" for the next visit. A few hours later I got a text letting me know I was out of area and my appointment was canceled. Probably for the best! Beware of the Lions cut and bath baloney! read more

I'm a first time cat mom and I had been searching for a long time groomer. After contacting various places, Kitty Spaw assisted me quickly. My cat loved this place and the Olya assisted us. He was calm around her and she had great suggestions to continue flea treatment at home. She also sent me pictures of him when he was nearly ready, had great suggestions for overall care, and the shop is very clean. I'll definitely be bringing him back. read more

I took my senior cat, Shadow for his grooming and was really nervous how he would do. Even with regular brushing he tends to get mats on his undercoat and lots of furballs because of his long hair. From the beginning of requesting services the process was friendly and easy. Staff said Shadow did a good job and was a good boy! He looked great after and he's ready for the summer. read more

I love the Kitty Spaw experience. I recommend for any cat owners that haven't got their cat groomed to try it out yourself to see how they would react with getting their nails done, brushing, and even a bath before bringing in. I gave my cat a sedative to calm down because I knew my cat would not enjoy being bathed, which also helped out with Olya a lot, but she is a true professional. read more

Kitty Spaw is absolutely outstanding! Olya was amazing who takes wonderful care of your cat. You can tell she genuinely enjoys her job, and consistently goes the extra mile to make each customer feel like family. She groomed my cat Lola (her first time officially being groomed by anyone other than me in 11 years) she took care of her ears, teeth, trimmed/filed her nails, bathed, and gave her a haircut, all while having the most positive attitude! We will definitely be regulars!! Highly recommended! read more

it was a blessing when I discovered Kitty Spaw... if you are a cat owner i am sure you are experiencing what I did...that most groomers are all about dogs and not that they are not good but we all know that cats are special and they need special treatment and honestly they don't need to be around dogs when they're in this situation of getting groomed. Kitty Spaw is exceptional in every way: the team, their experience in handling cats, their professionalism, their kindness, their reliability. I am an experienced animal owner and I have done business with many groomers...make an appointment read more

Olya did such a great job taking care of my kitty! Grooming a cat is no easy feat, especially a stressed out cat that wants no part of a bath or haircut! She was so patient and did a wonderful job calming him down before they got started. Kitty came out smelling great and looking adorable. She was worth every penny and always best to let the pros do it! Olya had great communication day of to let me know exactly when they would arrive. Definitely recommend. read more

I love this place! It is the only place we take our cat to get groomed. She has long hair and I don't like her to look shaved and Olya, the owner, will always trim her fur to just half an inch long at our request. They always do a nice job and I can't recommend her enough. read more

I'm a bit late on this review sorry! I took my cat here because she was super matted and needed a bath! The place I usually go to was fully booked and pretty far as well. Olya was able to squeeze me in the following day and they did a fantastic job on her lion cut. The customer service was top notch! She gave my cat a toy and even gave my toddler a toy as well which I loved! Super affordable for a lion cut and bath. 100% definitely coming back here because of the customer service. read more

When Olya began Kitty Spaw mobile cat grooming, she was wonderful. The first two times I used her, she came to the door, wore a mask, met the cat, discussed with me what kind of grooming I wanted; She took the cat to her truck, and returned the groomed cat to me at home. My cat looked great and seemed relaxed and happy. Olya seemed like a real pro. The third time I called for an appointment, her business model had changed radically. It seems that her business grew big fast and she had gone corporate. I couldn't speak with her by phone, I was pushed to the website to set an appointment. The earliest appointment was two months away. I tried to call her to ask some questions and to discuss my senior cat's care, but she does't take calls. She has an office assistent who communicated with me only by text. This assistant was not helpful, and told me that Olya will not come to my door, I have to bring the cat to her, that Olya is not available to talk to me, that she's too busy. She pushed me to decide what kind of grooming I wanted, but I wanted a consultation with Olya to get her professional opinion about the best options for grooming a 19 year old cat with arthritis. When I received the text to bring the cat to the truck, Olya had arrived an hour early for our appointment. Fortunately I was ready to meet her, and dragged my cat to the truck in her carrier. I am a senior with some disabilities and shlepping the heavy cat in her carrier was a hardship. The truck parked half a block away despite there being plenty of open, free parking in front of my door. When Olya opened her truck, I saw another assistant working with her there. This was new. Olya told me that shaving is more stressful than bathing for cats, and talked me into getting my cat a shampoo and a shave for $195. When we spoke, she seemed annoyed and stressed by my need for a brief consultation; she was not the friendly person I remembered dealing with. While the cat was in the truck, the office assistant kept texting me to send more and more medical information on the cat - rabies vaccination certificate, recent vet office visits. I sent everything she wanted. I wonder why they waited until the grooming service was in progress before asking for this information. I know they have my cat's previous records from when services were previously rendered. Forty-five minutes later I received a text to get the cat. I was told to pay online and received a text from the office with a link to their payment page. This time the cat was upset and went into hiding. The last time she was groomed, she was happy & relaxed and jumped out of her carrier and headed right for the food dish for a bite. Later that day I noticed dandruff on my cat's back. I texted Olya to ask if the had shampooed the cat, and if so, had she used water or a dry shampoo. Olya was offended and responded that she used water and a quality shampoo and no one had ever complained before. I explained that I just wanted to know what kind of care the cat had received that could account for the dandruff. Olya "yelled" at me in her reply text that I was to blame for never having bathed my cat before, and that Olya had left her in "waaaaaaay" better shape than she had found her, and she couldnt' clean the cat thoroughly because the cat was so dirty. I found this assertion odd because the cat lives indoors, a pampered, brushed, loved housecat. It occurred to me that in 45 minutes Olya clipped her nails, cleaned her eyes and ears, shampooed her, dried her, and shaved her entire body. The cat didn't have one damp hair on her when she was returned to me, which seemed odd. As I petted her that evening I found a pile of small mats under her chin on her neck. I was curious how Olya could have missed this mess. I am suspicious as to whether or not my cat received the care I paid for. Now that the business has turned user unfriendly, I will seek another cat specialist. As with vets, I look for one who cares for the human guardian as as well as for the pet. These animals are family and our concern for them is real. I find that Kitty Spaw has turned into a service which has lost its way. I'm very sad about that. read more

Kitty Spaw - Shaved cat - Pet Groomers Near Me

Olya was amazing with my little Raffi At first, I was really nervous because of other groomers in the past. Raffi HATES getting his nails cut or being handled for too long. So that was always an issue with others. But, she was so patient with him and made him feel so comfortable and relaxed. I saw right away that he liked her. I was shocked! I loved that he was purring like a kitten when she was done with him. He was like a whole new cat, which told me a lot about her expertise. For a domestic long hair, I knew Raffi would need something to help keep him cool for summer, so she recommended a comb cut to start. But I've been considering getting him the lion cut next time. Then he'll really feel like the king of the house lol I highly recommend Olya and will be using kitty spaw for now on! Thank you so much for helping Raffi! read more

Kitty Spaw - Raffi, fresh and happy! - Pet Groomers Near Me

I'll start by saying the quality of service of KittySpaw was good as I used them multiple times for grooming. My expiration of their service is simply due to the fact that I was not notified that I was cancelled because I didn't respond to the courtesy confirmation text the day before. My appointment was scheduled at 11:00 am. I reached out to KittySpaw letting them know I'm ready for the appointment. I receive text response explaining that because I confirmed the appointment the same day that I was cancelled (I did not receive notice). I am of the understanding that when you schedule any appointment of any kind that it is scheduled and you are responsible to be there. Confirmation emails/texts are a courtesy reminder to avoid no shows, but ultimately the customer is held to that standard at the time of the appointment. Finally after our exchange I receive notice of cancellation at 11:40 am. If their policy is such that you will be cancelled for not responding 24 hours in advance to the text, then the customer should receive documentation that the appointment has been cancelled 24 hours prior to the appointment....not 40 minutes after the time of the appointment. I've never been a no show client nor have I been late to any appointment. Rather, I have accommodated KittySpaw re-scheduling for their personal reasons which isn't my place to share. It's a disappointment as I had no intention of not continuing to be a repeat customer even when prices were raised due to the change in gas prices. It isn't easy to find good groomers, and they certainly are, but without the ability to identify good customers and have some understanding that someone who is consistently on time will continue to be consistently on time, I can't in good faith keep my business with them. I am a healthcare worker and have my own schedule and patients to tend to. And while I have already learned when to decipher the good intentioned from the not, this validated how meaningful it can be to know your clientele and be understanding. read more

Kitty Spaw - Cancellation Notice 40 Minutes After Schedule Appointment Time *See Time Stamp* - Pet Groomers Near Me

Olga is amazing. She was very professional on the phone , came perfectly on time, we have Scottish cat and she did Lion haircut in him. Turned out to be super cute and he is surprisingly very relaxed after his first haircut Thank you much Olga I highly recommend Kitty Spaw for your cat grooming needs read more

I just love this place. We've been going to Kitty Spaw for the past year and a half and Olya has been very kind and gentle with our kitty. It's easy to schedule and they always have free appointments. The place is clean and attractive. Definitely recommend it to everyone! read more

The BEST!!! always a pleasure having olya come to our house to groom our Himalayan Persian. Our kitties love her and she is such a sweetheart. She has saved the day with some long fur emergency messy situations!!! Would absolutely recommend her to everyone who has a kitty. Would never send my cats to a grooming shop, baths are stressful enough for kitties and knowing hes in a calm space with a sweet person makes me feel at ease every time. read more

Kitty Spaw - Kingsley after his groom - Pet Groomers Near Me

I turned to Yelp in search of someone who can come out and give my cat a bath and give her a little trim (it's been months since she's got a cut). After scrolling past many dog groomers, I saw Kitty Spaw! I called and spoke to Olga, extremely professional over the phone and we set up a 3pm appointment! She even called 15 mins before arriving to make sure we were ready for her! I was impressed of how she manages to keep her van/workspace so clean with all the cats coming in and out! Seriously recommend Olga, 5/5 everything. read more

I love when I call Olga to come give our cats a full service grooming every month or two. I don't really like driving to a groomer cause I'm always out driving around LA for work, so when I get back home I like to relax. I appreciate what she does for my two babies!!! She is vey patient with them!! read more

My wife and I never had a cat groomed before, because we never had such a long-haired cat. Even having Swarley in our lives since he was a kitten, we had never acted on our annual "we should give him a Lion cut" comment when it would start getting hot. Enter Olya! Part of the reason we never followed through on our "threat" is because we didn't want to subject him to a car ride (he makes it unpleasant for everyone). But she came to us, and provided everything needed to give him (and us) some relief from the fur. Olya was great with Swarley, who normally is pretty skittish, especially with people he doesn't know. But even the clippers and the dryer were no big deal to him in her company. The photos attached are from April 2019; since then his fur grew back beautifully, and it's (past) time to have another visit from Olya to give him some relief. read more

Kitty Spaw - Midnight looking handsome Thanks again Kitty Spaw! - Pet Groomers Near Me

I have to give it up for Kitty Spaw!!! I have to admit I thought the idea of taking my baby to a groomer would be a nightmare; but I was referred by another cat owner who spoke so highly about her experience with them.. I said, "what the heck I'll try it!" After the first groom, I was hooked! My cat came back to me smelling ... CLEAN! No heavy perfume or anything. Also after the first few grooms- my cat's dandruff went away. To top it off Olga,"the groomer" informed me that I was brushing my cat too much. I had no idea! So with her educating me and explaining how to properly care for my cat in between the grooms it made me so happy I found someone who specializes in cats! I have referred so many of my cat owner friends and they also have had the same experience! Kitty Spaw is the bomb!!!! read more

I have 3 very long haired Himalayan cats and 1 Persian. Their usual groomer retired about a year ago and I've tried multiple groomers since then but none of them impressed me. Then I came across a Groupon for Kitty Spaw. I was a little reluctant because Kitty Spaw doesn't have too much feedback, but I am so happy I purchased it. I was able to make an appointment with Olga (groomer and owner) the same weekend to groom one of my cats. Olga did an amazing job. She is very professional, communicates promptly, and arrives on time. I will definitely be using her again and would recommend her to anyone. A+++++ read more

I've been to many grooming salons and a lot of people can agree that many of them have a bad stench. One of my main concerns I find at these places is that most didn't know much about cats. When I met Olga and Snow- they were very welcoming and immediately knew what breed my cat was, which said a lot to me right away. Another great thing is that they didn't have anything hanging around restraining which was a breathe of fresh air for me to see. So I dropped my cat off and then picked her up in the next hour. I felt an immediate difference in my cats furr. I am completely pleased that I found this place! I highly recommend their services, thanks again! read more

I agree with the 1-star reviews posted on 9/2/2021 as my experience was very similar. I recently moved to LA so needed to find a new groomer for my cat. Because she is rather grouchy about grooming I was super happy to find this mobile service for less stress on her, but Kitty Spaw seriously needs to check their approach and attitude. My cat was rescued from a hoarding situation so developed eye issues and a grouchy attitude, especially when grooming. But rather than ask me for my cat's history, the owner and her assistant decided to make their own assumptions and conclusions about my cat's well being and care even though they clearly claimed that they were no veterinary experts, and even went as far as writing in all caps on my cat's report card that I needed to take her to the vet ASAP for an eye infection and a nail supposedly stuck in her paw pad (the latter of which was actually a concern to me since her eyes weren't a new condition). Even though I thought it was rude, because I wanted to build a relationship with a groomer that my cat would get used to and with someone who I could trust with my cat, I brushed it off. I was even okay with their recommendation to stop doing lion cuts on my cat because she didn't like it and only do baths and de-mats, but when I did try to set up a 2nd appointment for the recommended service the text reply I got was to one, ask if I had taken my cat to the vet as they had suggested and two, let me know that it might cost more since my cat hadn't been put on a schedule (it had been 3.5 months in between appts). I let them know the vet didn't see anything wrong with my cat and that if they were unsure about price then never mind my appointment request. The response I received was, "Would it be ok if I ask the vet?" which was shocking. Honestly, the price uncertainty didn't matter to me but the fact that she questioned if I had taken my cat to the vet had rubbed me the wrong way because to lead with that question was already assuming that I was an irresponsible cat owner in my mind, and the follow up text definitely confirmed that. Rather than say something along the lines of "Okay, we understand and will cancel your request for an appointment," to ask me if she could talk to my vet was pretty much accusing me of being a liar (unless she did think herself smarter than my vet and therefore wanted to educate them) and ultimately accusing me of denying her adequate care. Like, seriously? Well intended as their concern might have started, the accusatory attitude and rude approach is just not right. read more

We have a family of cats in the house but these tiny two ( hopper and belle ) were up to no goood whatsoever! I caught them on my ring camera playing on the dining table and my kitty named Moon was in her cozy spot near the table while they spilled orange juice on her. It was really sticky so I wanted to get her, her very first bath and i figured she needed a haircut as well! I found Kitty Spaw and talking to Olga was so much fun to talk to when she arrived, we talked about the many funny stories we had with our own cats. Moon was also loving the bath and haircut Olga was giving her. Thank you so much Kitty Spaw for putting us on schedule!! I will defiantly bring hopper and belle next for their monthly cleanup read more

Olya and her asst. were incredibly kind, professional and accommodating! My long haired baby was matted and in pain to where I couldn't pet her. They gave her a princess treatment and as soon as she was done she was so loving and happy! And having them come to me was the best part for my schedule. Thank you for helping my baby! read more

Very professional, arrived on time and was very patient and living with my anxious cat. Highly recommend!!

I love their service. Their timing on picking up and dropping off was amazing. During the this pandemic it was really hard for me to find a place to wash my Versace. Their service is was very sanitize and clean. Highly recommended. read more

I would not recommend. I Found the pet groomer rude and offensive. When I took piper my 6 year old Persian cat to the ladies, they asked the reason for the lions cut and I said due to impacted hairballs requiring surgery in in addition to a case of fleas all in the same month. The lions cut seemed like the best remedy and was recommended by my vet. The groomer balked at my remedies for flea removal (over the counter flea medication, dawn dish soap spot treatment followed by homemade treatment of coconut oil and clove essential oil). She was really quite rude about it, and made me feel like I was a bad pet owner. Shortly after I left piper with her, she said she perform the lions cut because my car was too aggressive. My cat has been groomed plenty of times before and has been to the vet plenty of times, unfortunately, and I've never heard she is aggressive. The groomer said she needed to be sedated for it be done but that she didn't have time for that. So she gave her a bath and billed me for $185....If a lions cut requires more intensive and stressful handling then the groomer should recommend sedation at the time of booking. Regardless i think it's the groomers lack of touch that caused the aggression as she put me off to begin with. Back to driving to the ladies at The Cats Pajamas in Alhambra. Sigh read more
