    We were already in love with this fur ball, but we knew that Dulce would work her magic...
    Miguel M.

    5 stars all around!!! Communication is great!! Treatment towards her clients (yes I'm talking about how she handles the dogs) from young pups to older ones is amazing!! And the grooming result has never failed!! I've been fortunate to have previous dogs get groomed by her and couldn't wait for our newest fur baby to be cut by the best in the business!! Now with such great service comes high demand, this isn't your typical groomer where you set an appointment a day or two in advance, she books in 3 month cycles and spots go fast. There is a waiting list but that's an at your own risk type of reservation.

    If you're looking for a great dog grooming and boarding spot, I would highly recommend Paws in Motion! Dulce is just the sweetest and worked wonders on our foster dog, who came to us a total mess with matted hair from months in the shelter. She really took her time, giving her a full deshedding treatment, and now our pup looks and feels like a brand new dog! Big thanks to Dulce for making the grooming experience so fantastic--our foster is all set for her forever home!

    Amazing work!!! I am soooo please with how my doggie came out! I was nervous on grooming my dog for the first time, as some places don't know how to groom golden doodles. I didn't want him to be cut too short and the length was perfect! They clean his teeth, shaved the fur around his paws and and trimmed nails. They were really patience with him as I know how difficult he can be since he doesn't sit still when I brush him at home. The shampoo used smells amazing and make his fur so soft, I can't stop petting him! Pick up and drop off was a breeze as they practiced social distancing and wore a mask. Very reasonable pricing!

    After!

    Definitely recommend taking your fur babies to Paws in Motion! I want to thank Dulce for her patience and attention to my 1 year old cocker spaniel. She communicated with me that my pup was very distressed during her grooming but was willing to work with her nonetheless. I was also very pleased with the cut, because my pups fur grows very unevenly and choppy I was worried about her not being able to work with her fur but when I picked her up I was in love!! She also recommended I do more frequent grooming with her to desensitize my dog and I'm grateful for her being available to work with her. You can tell she is very passionate about her work and all the dogs under her care. Thank you!

    I recently moved back to Downey and it's always given me anxiety searching for a new groomer, vet, etc. I want to be sure my children are well cared for and meeting Dulce brought me so much comfort. You can tell she LOVES dogs, she's so wonderful with them. My children are a little difficult when it comes to nail trims so I always get nervous but she was able to trim their nails and they looked amazing when I picked them up. They each had a cute accessory and smelled delicious! Their coats were so soft and I am one very happy momma! I wish you could give extra stars because Dulce deserves them, and the after pictures she takes is the cherry on top. I'm so excited for our next appointment!!

    So I have a goldendoodle puppy and was really nervous taking my Nelson anywhere for grooming, I've seen some horrible doodle cuts so I did my research and found paws in motion. I dropped him off was able to see him on ig when I picked him up he looked beautiful, smelled good and and was happy, I needed change so I waited and when danette came back with it Nelson ran to her and was happy which made me feel great. When we got home even my husband was impressed and told me he looked so cool he wants him to look like that all the time hahaha

    Part 2 Review (now that I have taken my cat): I've had my cat for 7yrs now and she has always been groomed by Fritzys Mobile. Although the convenience of her being groomed right in my drive way I without hesitation will start to make the commute to Paws in Motion to have her taken care of. She didn't look as happy as my dogs did when I picked her up but that was expected (she is spoiled like that) but it isn't easy being a pretty girl she's just going to have to suck it up and eventually get over it. My cat experiences dry skin & I think may have had a reaction to new food I gave her. Upon picking her up her coat was soft, smoooooth skin & smelled so good. So YES without a doubt Dulce has not seen the last of Princess. Her & her daughter are a Star Team. It has taken me some time to find someone whom I absolutely love who makes me want to become a regular client for my fur-babies. Ding! Ding! Ding! Winner, winner chicken dinner! I came across Paws in Motion Instagram page (best thing in 2020) after following her post for a couple of weeks I reached out to schedule an appt. She books up pretty quickly which to me was a good sign, must mean she has quite a few regulars who love her work. Thankfully she isn't too far from my place so the commute was a plus. Here are a few things I loved about Paws in Motion services... 1.) They are very active on IG throughout their spa sessions which allowed me keep up with what was being done to my dogs. This was helpful giving me an idea the status on services so I know when to be nearby to pick them up. Also, to see my babies were doing well (I swear my pups looked like they were smiling lol!) 2.) Her grooming fees are reasonable. I can't tell you how much I've paid and was not wow'd. Happy my dogs were clean but not wow'd like I was yesterday when picking them up. 3.) Her de-shedding was AMAZING! My poor babies needed a major de-shedding. I can only do so much at home in comparison to a professional. They came back out looking brand new ready to walk the paw carpet. 4.) The services included De-shedding, Bath (shampoo/conditioner), Facial (yes! They get a facial! I was jealous) Cleaning of the eyes, ears & teeth. Nail and hair trim (of the coat & deep in the paws) Oh! And their paws felt so smooth & purty. They smelled so fresh and good. I feel like I've been neglecting them by not finding her sooner & settling on previous groomers. She did such an amazing job. Note: I know she offers pick up/drop off and also house calls but due to Covid she has had to put those services on PAWS *pause until further notice. If you are looking for a local groomer I say give her services a shot. You won't be disappointed. P.S She does CATS as well so I will def update my review once I take that furball in.

    Ascencio furbabies groomed by Dulce @pawsinmotiondb
    C G.

    Dulce has been grooming my furbabies for over 2 years. She always takes care of my babies as if they were her own. She quickly addresses any concerns she may see. One of my babies had an ear infection I hadn't notice. Dulce mentioned the concerned to me and I was able to take my Lola to vet right away. She also spent the time needed with my youngest Legend, as he wasn't very happy about the grooming. She worked with him at his pace. I recommend Paws in Motion DB to everyone who is looking for a reliable trustworthy groomer.

    Maximilian
    Mayra B.

    Maxi and Molly have been getting grommed by Dulce for several months now and she always does an amazing job. She is knowledgeable and she is considerate about anything going on with the pups. Maxi had recently gone to the vet and had an ear infection and she was so gracious to change his appointment to be more accommodating. She does an amazing job and her prices are honestly the best. I fully recommend.

    My sweet dog
    Teresia A.

    The best groomer I have had for my dog. I feel like they really care about my dog and she looked amazing too! My dog had a bad grooming her last appointment with Petco, so I wanted to try someone new and support a local business. Dulce did an amazing job and my dog was happy not a nervous wreck as she was in the past. I will not take my dog anywhere else. My daughter who is very protective of our dog was able to follow the grooming process on Instagram and was so happy! Good price and excellent service!

    My dog Blessing
    Pedro G.

    I was desperately looking for a place to take my little dog Blessing for the weekend and came across Paws in Motion. I am an avid Yelper and always look at reviews in here, I noticed that they were 5 stars!! I messaged 4 different places that were 5 stars or close to 5.... well not only did Dulce answer all my questions but she gave me the peace of mind that my Blessing would be in good hands. I was blown away by Dulce and her staff with my Blessing, yo say they deserve 5 stars is too low... they are way above 5 stars. They gave me a password protected link where I can watch live my Blessing (puppy) They sent me videos and pictures and really provided that peace of mind for me and my family. Once we picked up Blessing, he was better than ever... I was afraid he didn't want to leave lol. Thank you Dulce and Paws in Motion for providing this great care of my Blessing!

    Priscilla R.

    I brought my dog here for the first time and my dog came out so good Dulce definitely knows what she is doing. My dog usually gets nervous when going to the groomers but he was so comfortable with her. I will definitely be coming back here

She and Maritza actually have several clients in common through referrals. I've been sending Waffles for daycare at least twice a week for a year to Maritza and sometimes overnights and holidays if I'm leaving town. She is an amazing sitter- not just at being flexible with scheduling and communicative with pictures, videos and updates but goes above and beyond accommodating last-minute emergency situations and is so conscientious and aware of where every dog is at all times. All the dogs play well with each other and even have regular naptimes. She updates me on any possible behavioral/physical changes she notices and makes sure my pup is always safe and happy while staying with her. I have to book at least a month or two before the holidays come around because everyone is fighting for a slot to get their dog in with her. On a more personal note my Biscuit boy got run over in a hit and run two months after he first started going to her and I'll always be grateful to Maritza for making his last few months so joyful. He loved going to her place and she was one of the first people I called that day to come say goodbye to him. She even gifted a sweet memorial picture of him because she knew how hard it was for me to have such an unexpected sudden loss. I got Waffles the next month and Maritza has been a lifesaver in helping with her training. She really understands dogs and is a one in a million find since she does it full-time. Socialization and structure is SO important with puppies and I couldn't ask for a better more patient person to care for her through her puppyhood and now adolescent years. It was a happy accident that I found her but now I can't imagine sending my dog to anyone else. I have backups of course, but Waffs is the most tired and happy after a day at Maritza's! Highly recommend~

Since my last review, Luke Skyhopper crossed the rainbow bridge (it felt like I lost a part of my heart losing that kiddo, but 13?ish years was a good life bubs). I think he was one of the last Petco featured buns RRI had, and my goodness am I glad I found him. After his passing my home felt quiet, and the same week I of course went to "just look" and ended up taking home two new bunnos now named Mulder and Scully. Their names were originally Tobias and Locke? *She was part of a litter in the rescue so if you have a bunno from here that's approximately 4/5 I may have their sibling! They were dumped or so I was told, by a family that loved them dearly (Scully was carried around by a little girl). Mulder (the lop) was from a breeder and bonded to Scully in the previous owner's home. They were supposed to have their belongings dropped off at the rescue, they did not. Thankfully I have a fully set free-roam bunno home so they settled in easily. Scully was petrified of dogs or even hearing them. Mulder was urine scalded. It's been a few years and they're thriving now. I've uploaded photos in case they were yours and you'd love to see an update on them. They're gonna live their best lives with me forever. I promise. Everything said above. I boarded the kids here and took a shot. They were okay and didn't have any issues besides it being insanely hot. *This was also summer of last year though. When the fires broke out in January, I immediately thought of air quality knowing their location and what they were working with. I confirmed and sent two air purifiers because I understand not just human health, but also bunny health and my goodness they are sensitive little loves. When I called to be sure they got there/were received, I was made to feel like the two HEPA air purifiers were not good enough because they were "so tiny." When I run a single one in my home just fine. =/ I don't have the world, but I'll give what I can, especially to those who I care about the best I can first. This was also in the midst of me volunteering daily to collect for victims and first responders. But I bit my tongue. This rescue has had its issues of bunnies being abandoned out front and being eaten by the roofing company's dogs. It wasn't fair to the buns and they deserved a chance but my goodness that could have been prevented. I notice the difference between their social media stirring right now so here's some more perspective. I have immense gratitude for those who have lovingly cared for the buns I've adopted, and those who came into this rescue. The 3* is for you.

One rule was we were going to train her to be his service dog to help with mobility issues and we had to decide who to use to train her. We started off with the typical Petsmart training classes which were also great for what it was but knew we needed more. We called multiple trainers, had multiple consultations and no one we meshed with until we found Reymond. We started off with one class and even in the first class he gave us such amazing advice on training Hunny, techniques and was just a kind soul. We signed her up for private training lessons and he has helped Hunny to overcome some fears and training in real life vs a pet store. We were able to take her with us on a short Vegas trip where she was perfect. You tell me what young dog is able to lay down and settle at a Japanese Bbq place where all we are doing is grilling delicious meat and eating tons of food. So if you are wondering if you should hire Reymond and his company I am going to say yes, you won't regret it. A bonus is he also has group training classes that are very economical. With Reymond's help I know that Hunny will become an amazing service dog for my husband. Also, if ur lucky u get to pet his dog Pluto and give him some string cheese :)

Juan and the entire team are amazing--compassionate, trustworthy, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. They took the time to understand Ringo and worked patiently to help him build confidence, improve behavior, and develop reliable obedience skills. It was clear throughout the process that they care deeply about every dog they work with. What stands out most is the level of professionalism combined with the love and attention they give each dog. I felt completely comfortable trusting them with Ringo, and the communication throughout the program was excellent. Even after training, I continue to bring Ringo there for daycare and boarding, which says everything about the confidence I have in their team and facility. Ringo is always happy to go, and I know he is safe, well cared for, and in great hands. If you are looking for a team that delivers real results while treating your dog like family, The DOGGO USA is the place to go. Our experience with The DOGGO USA has and continues to make a lasting difference in Ringo's life. We are grateful for everything they have done for him. Highly recommend The DOGGO USA to anyone seeking training, daycare, or boarding services.

As a new pet owner, I've learned so much from her--she's always offering helpful tips and guidance, and I truly feel supported. My puppy absolutely loves spending time at her place, and I always have peace of mind knowing she's in great hands. If you're looking for a warm, knowledgeable, and trustworthy dog caregiver, I couldn't recommend The K9 Hangout more highly!
