    Oso

    I took Oso in today and he came back looking super fly, shiny, and smelling sooo good. He's a bigger dog so naturally I was nervous of his size and him haven't being groomed in a while but the whole team was super reassuring, took REALLY good care of him, it was super quick, super easy and such good pricing! 10000/10!

    Been coming here for a few years now and have had a great experience every time . Pricing is very reasonable compared to others. I will keep coming back here!! Highly recommend check them out!!

    Right after Dog Grooming - Bath And Brush Only

    We have an anxious dog, and after most of her washes at other places, she comes out quivering. Here she came out wagging her tail and trotting around. She smelled so good after a wash and the smell stays in her fur for at least a a week. they gave her a cute bandana. Will be coming back.

    Dexter is all smiles after his full groom!

    Highly recommend Paws Palace in Santa Clara! I had been going to a place in Campbell, but after a move I needed someplace closer. After driving by PP time and time again I figure I would try them. Ricardo was so welcoming and kind to Dexter and I. The process was easy and Dexter came out a HAPPY and handsome boy! I am very satisfied and Paws Palace has a new customer! Dexter and I thank you Paws Palace!

    I have been a regular customer at Paws Palace for almost four years now. However, my recent experience has left me with no choice but to find another groomer. I noticed that this once-fantastic place has become a groomer mill. During my last visit, I picked up my dog, Zoey, and noticed a small cut on her ear after paying for the service. I was a little annoyed because the groomer did not inform me of this. I felt they could have been more forthcoming and mentioned that Zoey had a small accident during her grooming. When I got home, the cut was still slightly bleeding, so I took Zoey to the vet. Unfortunately, the wound was deep enough to require 3 stitches. Although accidents can happen, I had previously informed the groomer that Zoey was a rescue dog and a bit skittish. I also mentioned that she was treat-motivated and would behave if handled with care and patience. This I remind the team constantly and always seem receptive to concerns and friendly, yet the stitches were the last straw, as in the past, Zoey's nails had been cut too short to the point where the wick was exposed....ok I though, that could be accident..I feel like a terrible dog dad and for giving Paws Palace another chance to prove me wrong, but sadly, it did not meet my expectations. I miss the old owners who took great care of Zoey, and for the safety of my dog, I will not be returning.

    Angel V did a great job on my long hair cat. No more mats hair. My cat feels more lightweight after grooming and bath.

    Love this place and the quality work they do! They pay special attention to your dogs personal needs and treat them with the love and care they deserve. Luna was greeted with caresses and the groomer came out to meet us to talk about what cut would best fit her. Prices are reasonable and super fast service. I will definitely return here and can't wait til Lunas next cut.

    Choppy cut in the face, especially by the chin

    I have been to this place a couple times before and had no issue with how they groomed my dog. This last encounter was a total sh*t show to say the least. Not only did they shave my doodle down to practically nothing, they cut him in several areas too. Not to mention how choppy the cut was in the places they left any fur on him. They claim that I had asked for a summer cut in FEBRUARY! But even a summer cut on a doodle shouldn't look like this. My dog has not been his usual happy self since coming back from this place. I'm beyond pissed. I had to buy my dog a sherpa jacket because he's been shivering with all his fur gone. The best they said they can do is refund me 50%. I basically paid $135 for my dog to look like a mangy street dog. Do yourself and your dog a favor and take your business elsewhere.

    Razor burned belly
    Emily M.

    If you love your dog, don't bring them here. I have brought my dog here a few times, and have even recommended this business to my sister, but am now regretting that after the terrible experience we had today. Not only was their customer service terrible, but worst of all they cut up my poor puppies belly. Here is the issue with customer service. We dropped our pup off at her 4pm appointment time, my fiancé and I both being a little confused since we see that they close at 4:30pm. By 6pm we called to see if she was almost done, and no answer. We figured maybe they had a few later appointments so continued to wait by the phone ready to pick her up. Finally around 7:15 we receive a phone call from a disgruntled employee telling us that he has been trying to call us multiple times. We told him we haven't received any calls, but would be there in less than 10 minutes. I walked into to pick up my pup and immediately apologized and asked if maybe he had called the wrong number since we didn't receive any calls, and even attempted to show him our call log just to see if we could figure out what happened. He was EXTREMELY RUDE and unprofessional. He just kept telling me he was calling and that I needed to change the number in their log, which makes absolutely no sense since we had received the one phone call. He would not listen to me, even while I was still apologizing and kept muttering to his dog that "we all have to go home at some point". I had already tipped 20% prior to hearing this, and now I regret it. Also be aware that they charge you for paying with a credit card, but definitely don't inform you of that. This groomer is the reason I will no longer take my dog here and will ensure that my sister does not either. His lack of professionalism is unacceptable and it looks like this isn't the first time he has behaved this way or spoken to someone in this manner.

    This is a review for poor customer service and not totally how grooming service has been performed. I have never encountered any problem until today when I was treated like a stupid person and I felt diminished as a person. That was a very frustrating feeling. It started when I dropped my dog, agter I texted the picture of how I wanted the cut to be, I wanted to confirm that he understood it, I xas about to ask for the short hair.. the employee just interrupted me and didn't want to listen to me. He just said that he will look at it afterwards and not now. I didn't think much of it but felt a bit annoyed but didn't say anything and remained polite. When I came back to pick up my dog, what I experienced was an example of poor customer service where the client has to shut up and just take it or leave it. The groomer had an attitude. When I asked about the price not being the same that he mentioned, he asked me back if I read the paper on the counter about the extra 3 or 4% automatically added to the bill. I was asking a question and the way he replied to me was disrespectful and condescending. So if I haven't read it yet, he could have been polite and not being rude. I work as a customer service manager and this is a shame and extremely poor customer service. No empathy to customers. Please train your employees better. This is the least an employee can do. He gave me back my dog without his harness and lead. I asked about it and he brought back a few of them and none of them belonged to my dog. I told him about the color and he brought it. Then asked me if it was the collar my dog had around his neck was his collar too. Well, he should have known if he was doing his job properly. As for the rendered service, I sent a picture over asking for a summer cut but my dog came out with still long hair and not what I asked for. I felt so frustrated about the way he treated me that I didn't want to ask about the long hair. I called back twice to talk to the owner and only got a voicemail. It was a very disappointing experience. Why would I want to return here to be treated like crap while I was polite? I should have given no tips at all. Too late... i am very upset, to say the least and an apology would be welcome.

    My dog got scratched and very uneven hair cut !! This is my first time visit here and it's my last time too !! Don't go here!

    My girlfriend took her dog here. Her dog got scratch on his leg. And charge her $120 just for that!!! And if you pay by card they also charge you $4.75 for card fee!!! Won't go there again! Very disappointed.

    Actual photos of two poodles sent for a spa day wash and trim. Save yourself and fur babies a lot of pain from these type of services. Yelp great reviews were from original owners and since ownership was changed there are multiple warnings of avoiding this place. Their license should be reviewed and removed due to harsh practices. The male employee that grooms the animals is not sympathetic nor does he take accountability for his work. I would advise the new owner to find someone else before this business goes under. The pictures I have loaded show razor burn and skin irritations. My moms pup is miserable and it's shameful someone could do this. Added time to take dog to Vet, pay added costs for treatment and cone. She is on meds for a week. Will say my mom was reimbursed by Paw Palace but the pain her one dog suffered most is unacceptable.

Which is true. I've done all sorts of things to adapt to her hind quarters weakness and partial paralysis and I'm really thankful that her groomer has done what they could to help her, too, without my having to ask. As usual, she came out looking good and smelling good -- I love that they don't use heavy perfumes and whatever they do use just leaves a nice pleasant, fresh smell. She's silky soft after every groom, and she clearly feels good about her time there since she always comes out smiling and prancing when she's done (feeling fancy, I guess). Great business and great people, friendly and helpful, super glad I found them. It doesn't hurt that they're only five minutes away from home but I'd bring Kiva here even if we had to drive a bit!

Unfortunately, I'm quite disappointed with the quality of grooming provided, especially considering the $150 price tag for a standard groom. I've tried two different groomers, and both have had limited English skills, which has led to communication issues. One groomer completed the grooming in just about 20 minutes, resulting in an uneven haircut that was far from satisfactory. It seems like they always leave something undone--whether it's trimming nails or expressing anal glands, both of which should be standard services included in the price. It's concerning that the appointments feel rushed, raising the question: how can a thorough grooming be done in such a short amount of time? I've attached a picture from my dog's most recent grooming appointment, highlighting the unevenness of her coat. I had high hopes for this service, but I believe there's a significant need for improvement in both the quality of grooming and attention to detail. Sadly, I can't recommend art Pet Grooming for the Central Valley at this time. Edited in response to the owners commentary below: we've had our dog groomed several times. The above review is the final straw and a summary of the experience with multiple groomers through Art Pet. Not specific for Bea. She was a nice person. The haircut was done by her. The previous groomers and Bea have asked my husband to come to the van told hold Teddy during aspects of the grooming when requested. The image is of careless grooming. Not as a result of safety concerns. In fact, yesterday, my husband held Teddy while she trimmed his nails. Thank you for offering a refund in your emailed response . We decline the refund. We would like your employees to do better and groom with a conscience.
