I am a little reluctant to write this great review because she, Pam, is in hot demand and stays quite booked... But - fair is fair, she's awesome! Where to begin? 1st, when I initially contacted Pam, she politely told me that she is unfortunately too booked to take any new dogs at the moment (that should tell you something). I essentially pleaded with her to shave down my long-haired Rotty and she agreed... (Thank you!) You see, Dante has a recessive gene that cause him to have this long and unruly hair - it will actually form knotted dreadlocks and is very difficult to manage. Not to mention the fact that it keeps him too warm and likely too dusty. We were walking Dante on a trail in Pacifica when we met a woman with a dog (Ritter) that had hair like Dante's. She recommended Pam at Pawtastic. And so do I. I'm not sure if Pam is taking new clients or not, but she certainly did a great job on my baby boy. read more

Pam is just as fantastic as all the reviews say. This review is long overdue (even though it's sure to make her even more in demand than she already is) we've been seeing her for a couple years now. She's a wonderfully caring, gentle soul with a huge heart and we are so lucky to have her in our town! She let's me stay and chat with her while she bathes my gentle giant (which makes all of us more at ease). No having to wonder what they do in the back room that makes your dog hate it so much - like some other places. Nothing but the best for our fur-baby and Pam @ Pawtastic is the best! read more

I wish I could rate the actual grooming experience, but it's impossible to reach this business. I've called multiple times and the phone rings and rings and rings. It seems there is no voicemail system (or its just not working at the moment) and with no website, no email, and no posted business hours, I'm quite frankly not sure how people do make appointments here. read more

Pam is nice, but super busy. It's hard to get an appointment with her, and she made Kuro look like a rat after giving him a "puppy cut". It was only $35, but my mom can groom him better than Pam. Sorry to give the first bad review, but it was truly a terrible look. It almost made me want to cry like a mom breaking down after seeing her child's first bad hair cut. read more

This is one of those reviews that I hesitate to write, simply because I don't want this hidden gem to become the victim of too many Yelpy Yelpers! Pam is incredible! We brought in our 60 lb Pittie and our 65 lb Lab for some de-stinking and nail trimming. I wasn't sure they were my dogs when I went back to pick them up - they were sparkling and so fresh and so clean clean (why am I thinking about that stupid song...ugh). Pam is sweet and really took amazing care of the dogs. They were a bit nervous when we dropped them off, but clearly Pam worked her magic because they were ready to hang out with her longer when we came back to get them. Finally, she has to be the most reasonably priced groomer in all the land...I thought maybe I was missing something....nope! $30 for each dog - wash, anal glands expressed (THANK YOU!!!!!!), nails trimmed. I can't even get a nail trim and butt gland expressed at the vets for under $40 (for my dogs people, not for me)!!!!! Pam, you're seriously pawsitivily pawtastic and pawmazing! Sato and Maggie send you a paws-up, high-five! read more

Pam, thank you for the wonderful treatment today. I'm so pleased at the way he looks and smells. He seemed like he enjoyed himself as well. I really like how quick it took, as I'm always worried that he'll get tired. You did a great job and I can't wait to have you again!! read more

Pam totally rocks. My 3-year old Golden, Astro, is a bit of a sensitive boy, and he was starting to refuse to get into the van of the mobile groomer we used to use. So, I decided to try a non-mobile groomer to see if he was more comfortable and SO glad I did. I've known Pam for years, before she was a groomer, and since my husband is her veterinarian, I know *exactly* how much she cares for animals! I just picked Astro up - he's much less nervous about seeing her, because she's very gentle - she even apologized to me because his ears weren't completely dry because he was a bit nervous about the blower and she just didn't want to push it and freak him out. I just really appreciate having a groomer who knows how to help the doggies feel more comfortable and she cares enough about their well-being that she'll do anything to help put them at ease. I have never seen Pam so happy as she is now working with the animals, and I'll never take my boy anywhere else because I know how much she loves the doggies! read more

04/14/13 Update: I just tried to book an appt but Pamela said nothing is available at all. So sad that she isn't as accomodating like before. Ill just have to go find a new groomer. If you try to book an appt w her, good luck... I have been searching and searching and searching for a good, kind, and compassionate groomer who truely cares about animals. The search is over when I brought my shih tzu to Pamela. She is very gentle and caring towards Bubbles (my baby) which simply reflects the result of her outstanding work. Im so happy that I no longer have to deal with petsmart/petco and their soaring high prices for low quality grooming job. Thank you Pamela for making my baby girl look adorable! read more

Still Great. My little Maddie is stil going there. We book our appointments way ahead. She's great. She loves dogs and is very gentle.

Pam, thank you so much for taking care of our princess last weekend - she came back so clean and happy and beautiful (and she knows it!) and we can't thank you enough for the love and care you take with your paw-stomers :) Please know that we'll keep coming back rain or shine! read more

Pam treats the dogs with love and do an amazing job with everything. We have going to her for many years and we could not gotten a better person with such strong values. Thank you for everything! read more

We took our dog there over the weekend to be groomed. Very inexpensive and Pam is awesome. She's a super nice lady and clearly loves animals. Our dog came home cleaned up and happy. We'll definitely be bringing her here on a regular basis. read more

I have a 90+ lb lab mix that absolutely hates having his feet touched - but I have hardwood and that boy needs his nails trimmed. My husband and I have tried wrestling with him to do it ourselves and failed miserably. Pam has it down - it's all about the sweet talk and the treats - she's confident, competent and just plain likes working with the dogs. Oh, and she's great with people too ; ) read more

I can't believe I haven't reviewed Pam. We love Pam. She is amazing with our crazy labradoodle. I wish I knew how she cuts the hair on his paws and underside without him having a nervous breakdown. We moved out of the area recently and we are devastated to have to find someone else to try to deal with our "special" dog. :) We miss you, Pam! - Katie & Stanley read more

Pamela's Pawtastic pet grooming is absolutely wonderful! Pam is great. I went in to get my shiba's nails cut and their ears cleaned and even though they fought her she kept on trying! This was the first time I've been to her and definitely will not be the last! Usually I go to petsmart to get their nails trimmed and ears cleaned and pretty bad service as well. Pam gives out the care needed for every dog and petsmart is only looking at the dollar sign and not the care for the dogs. The best part is, is that she is nearby and I don't have to drive all the way to daly city. read more

I highly recommend Pam for your grooming needs. I brought in my shitzu, who was very matted and very sensitive, due to lack of care he recieved at his previous home. While he was difficult to work with and screamed so much and so loudly that she told me the neighbors were concerned about the ruckus, he got a great summer cut and looked so darn cute! Pam is great to work with and affordable. . Her main concern is the well being of the dog and uses gentle methods to get your furry friend clean. If you're trying to get a weekend, you will need to call in advance as she is a very busy person, however, she is very accomodating with scheduling times if your dog is dire need of a grooming. read more

Pam is just THE BEST groomer we have ever found. Our little Misty Mae is a rescue from the SFSPCA. She had a tough start in life. Now thanks to Pam...Misty Mae is not only thriving in her new home....she looks FABULOUS. We recommend Pam to all of our dog loving friends read more

Pam is wonderful! I absolutely love her. We have maltase mix pup (Anita), who's hair gets matted very easily. We've been coming to Pam for about 2 years now (Can't believe I haven't left her a review yet). She does all she can to accommodate us and get us an appointment that works with both of our schedules. You can't beat her prices, but most of all, you can't beat her LOVE for her job and for her clients (the animals). With no hesitation, hands down, Pam is the best of the best. read more

I have been through quite a few groomers here in Pacifica - there was always some issue with each, and I just couldn't seem to find one that I, and my dog, were happy with completely. Thankfully I found Pam - she is awesome!!! She did an amazing job on my dog, she is super friendly, her rates are very reasonable and she is only a five minute drive from my house! read more

I know it can be suspicious when a business has all 5 stars on yelp, but in the case of Pawtastic, it is completely deserved. My dog, and 8 year old Border Collie, used to have to be dragged or carried into the groomer. At Pawtastic, she loves going in, and she always comes out clean and happy. Pam used to work at one of the groomers in Daly city I think, and decided to go out on her own. So, she has experience and is really reasonably priced. I love the fact that my dog doesn't end up waiting around while she works on other dogs. I have also called because my pooch had some hot spots that I wanted to shave down, and Pam said to come on in. Overall, I have had nothing but great experiences. The only downside is the number of dog puns in the name, but that's a small trade off... read more

Pamela is super caring, loves the animals and great with people too! She is responsive to last minute requests and tries her best to call back, and if she is out of town helping her son move, she'll call you back from the road! My Sadie girl is sort of squimish when we drive her to get washed, but when she see's Pamela and a promise of a doggy treat she is ready to go! My dog has so much hair it's nuts, she comes back all sparkling and show dog ready, I am very pleased with her work and she's just a neat person! read more

Pam is definitely amazing, like everyone I am hesitant to write a review because is so great at what she does and stays booked. I contacted Pam, and she was able to get my Yorkie Millie in, I loved how she was not put in a crate all day (because she is a big cry baby) I was able to go right across the street, do some shopping and in a hour my baby was done and looked amazing! She is so kind and you it shows how much she loves animals and her job,I definitely will not be going anywhere else after having the pleasure of meeting Pam! read more

Pam is wonderful! Today finishes our pack off: Westie/Scottie; Pom/Chihuahua; and Mini Wire-haired Dachshund! They all look phenomenal! I couldn't be happier about the service that we have received! read more

Pamela does such a great job and charges a reasonable rate. She always works us into her busy schedule. She really loves the animals and her little dog is there to keep everyone company. Pamela may not have a fancy shop with bells and whistles but if you need grooming she has all the equipment and does a fine job with a caring touch. We started with her over a year ago and have referred several friends. read more

I had an impossible time finding a groomer for our newly rescued goldendoodles. I found Pam on yelp and I couldn't be more grateful. I have a sensitive girl and Pam arranged for her to have one on one time in her shop which was just ideal. And I got a thank you email from Pam after our first visit! When does that happen? The only problem is that I feel like I'm cheating her since her prices are SO SO low! Rosie will be back soon, with her sister in tow! Thank you, Pam! read more

When I went looking for someone to groom my girls Pam was booked of course but I was patient and held out for cancellations. Jackpot! I am now booked for the whole year 2015 and can't be happier. My girls, beagle and Lab, love to see her. I took my girls to Petsmart and when I would get them back they seemed traumatized and I could never get the same groomer for each visit. With Pam they are happier and calmer and that's important. So I am going to keep all my appointments and girls happy. :) read more

Took my 70lb Airedale Terrier here based on other yelp reviews, and I wasn't disappointed. Pam was friendly, the appointment was quick, and my dog looks great! Her prices are very reasonable too. read more

I walked in here at 4:45pm on a Friday afternoon with a dog covered in cow manure and nowhere else to go. This lady greeted me with a smile and didn't seem to even consider turning me (or more likely my dog) away. On top of that, my pup is a nervous shelter dog who requires a gentle hand. Her passion for working with dogs (and all animals) was extremely obvious and her attention to detail was impressive. One of the best dog professionals I have ever met in my travels. I recommend her to work with your pets as highly as I can. I signed up for yelp specifically to write this...that good. read more
