Today was yet another amazing experience at Taj Mapaw! Our girl always comes out looking cute and happy. The staff is so kind!
I've taken numerous dogs to them over the years and they are nothing less than angels. my dogs know where they are going and are excited to be there. they remember the dogs, are kind to the owners to the point when my lab was afraid of the dryer so one of the owners sat with him the whole time he dried. the owner was sweaty and exhausted but they will do anything for the dogs they groom. they are friendly, very reasonably priced. I can't say enough good. Leslie Irwin
Based on my uploaded photos, you can tell I'm a regular here. I and my drama queen Pug Mochi love this place. I say drama queen because Pug Mochi has to act so dramatic during check-in. She kinda hates baths but during pick-up, she's always happy and hyper. We have been coming here ever since we moved from LA. This was the first doggie spa Pug Mochi had service within our new neighborhood and we stayed. We stayed because the price is reasonable. We stayed also because the management and the staff are friendly, caring, accommodating, and considerate. They always remember Mochi's name and greet her warmly. We also love the little touch of doggie bandana they put on Pug Mochi after the service. For some reason, my husband is always excited about the new bandana Pug Mochi comes with. Parking is easy but you may need to call way in advance to make an appointment. They are usually busy. I definitely recommend this spa.
This is my third visit to this place and might be my last.... I cannot believe today's visit at this place, it seems their newer members (to me at least since I've last been there all different except the older employee Lady who's very nice like Diane the owner) I loved this place to pieces but today like I said, threw me off... Im the mommy of Trix. I was greeted by the same friendly lady I seen twice earlier (1. Dropped Trix off 2. Came back at 4:10 to see if he was ready and prepaid) when I came back to finally pick up Trix, the friendly Lady was explaining that my dog may have snagged his nail trying to escape from the tub. I said no problem.. he can be a handful. She walked to the back to see if he was ready ( yes he was since I got a call 3 mins before saying come pick him up). The lady who bathed my dog Trix could be heard raising her voice about my dog biting her. She came out asking if I was the mother, and that he must of caught one of his nails from when we was trying to escape of the tub. The was scratching to get out and that must be why she also mentioned that he is a handful because he moves alot and doesn't stay or listen.. She said he was difficult and even to dry.. Why no one notified me and I even stopped by before hand to see if all was okay. Last time he was to hyper, they called me for my other dog that i came to ca lm down... what was soo different this time?? Well, when she brought him out to me, she said he pees everywhere and won't stop ( which she was telling me over the phone when she called to tell me he was ready)? He's a dog.. he's marking his territory because the other non-neutered dog. Its okay to place him outside to to his thing or kennel him.. So, she had a yellow lesh when trying to explain how difficult he was and at the same time she was choking him!! I had to tell her twice to let him go.. so unprofessional. I've never encountered this before with Taj Mapaw. I left every uncomfortable with this visit. I took him straight to his vet (since he was 7 weeks old) .. I was told that his nails were bleeding like if someone tried cutting them and did too short since it hit a vein!! His paws were fine and they washed his paws thoroughly to check and apply a compound to completely stop the bleeding, which T.M attempted to do. One star knocked for the bathers rudeness and one star knocked because I should of been notified once he couldn't be handled, would of been more than happy to control him or take him home if too much for them to handle.. I love Diane's Taj Mapaw facility, I just don't know if I'll be coming back and allow that twig of a woman to touch my dog again.
We needed a new groomer for our dogs and needed one fast! Luckily we found Taj Mapaw Spaw through Yelp and made an appointment to get our boys in right away. My dogs aren't typically excited about getting baths, but Dianne (the groomer) made the experience really nice for our dogs. I think they were a bit shy at first but warmed up to Dianne right away. When we picked up our dogs, they looked and smelled so good! They seemed comfortable and happy after their grooming appointment too. Usually when we drop off our dogs at other groomers, we know they might be there for most of the day. At Taj Mapaw Spaw, our boys were both groomed within a couple of hours! It's so nice to not have to worry about them waiting around in kennels all day! Prices are competitive (if not better) than other groomers in the area. The convenience is just an added bonus. This was such a nice, relaxed first appointment at our new groomer. And if our boys are happy, we're happy!
So fresh and so clean thanks Taj Ma Paw for getting Leo nice and ready for Father's Day weekend!
Doggies went and got groomed and I think I've found their new groomer They don't use cages and hand dry them, which was my #1 concern. I was crazy dog mommy and they used the line I used to give parents when I was teaching swim: "I promise they'll be okay" They sat down with me for 10 minutes and talked to me about the doggies, asked what I wanted, and made sure I was super comfortable and happy. They got to do doggie daycare when they were done, which was included in the package. They texted me when doggies were ready which was awesome and made me weirdly happy they told me the dogs were awesome and loved playtime. I've never seen Gizmo fall asleep in this position in the car and Khloes never laid down, which proves they had an awesome time. I am so happy with the services we received and I definitely plan on making this our babies new home for grooming :) Side note: they have 3 doors before the actual door to make sure no doggies escape, since they're not caged.
Update: The owner offered a refund for the bad haircut and apologized. I asked for my dog to be scissor trimmed and for her neck and rear end to be cut down more then normal because it was long. When I picked her up, her neck was left totally long and her entire body was buzzed down to about 1/2 inch. They basically did the opposite of what I asked for. I had to pay and tip before I was even able to see her haircut otherwise I would have refused to pay. I will not be returning.
I wanted to update my review the company was stand up they were reimbursed me for the cost of the grooming they were very apologetic and very understanding

We had to find a new groomer for our goldendoodle because or usual groomer moved to Texas. We were nervous because we have had some bad experiences at other local spots, but Taj Mapaw had excellent reviews and the owners were very helpful. Our dog has very sensitive eyes and they took extra special care of her and her super curly coat was groomed to perfection (not an easy task). We are so happy we found an excellent new groomer! read more

The first (and last) time I took my baby to a "professional" groomer, she came back with butchered nails and vomited 7+ times. A full year later, we decided to give professional grooming another try after reading all of these amazing reviews about Taj Mapaw on Yelp. Mila's appointment was bright and early on a weekend. We drove into a beautiful house/mansion with the arboretum + garage turned into a wonderful doggie spa. When we walked in, we were greeted with a super nice groomer (I believe her name was Liz), a clean grooming/waiting area, and peaceful spa music. I loved the fact that there were no cages and that I was invited to wait and watch. Mila got the "clean up" package which includes a bath using the Hydro Surge bathing system, nails cut and filed with the doggie dremel, cleaning of ears, trimming of pads, expression of anal glands (to get rid of the fish sauce smell! yuck!), trimming of bum and peepee areas, facial trim (but we opted out of this one because Mila likes looking like Einstein), and a cute bandana. Regular price for the clean up package for a small, long-haired dog is $30. i got $10 off for being a first-time customer. Overall, Mila (and mommy) had a wonderful experience and we expect to be back soon. read more
This dog groomer is located inside of somebody's house (well, it's more of a mansion), which is kind of confusing. The spaw is located through an easy-to-find back entrance once you park in the lot. The people that work here are super nice and obviously dog lovers...not your typical teenager-working-a-summer-job at Petco. I've taken my dog here a few times, and have loved the results! The prices are very reasonable...for ~$20 I got a wash, trim (including the hair inside the paws and toenails clipped), and anal gland expression (gross.). They even put some "doggy perfume" on her and send her out with a new little bandana each time. My dog is very timid, but she actually enjoys being here and seems really relaxed (which is interesting, since she hates baths). I'm very happy with Taj Mapaw and will continue to bring my little doggy back! read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE Taj Mapaw Spaw!! This was our first visit. I have to thank Yelp for the info on this spot. After reading all the awesome reviews, I had to give it a try. I had an idea of where to go from instructions given by other reviewers and I, of course, Googled it. Having said that, when I called to make the appointment Diane was very instructive on how to find my way. I had no problem finding it! Diane is so super nice and her girls are just as sweet. Everyone was so nice to Muffin. She is half poodle and half chihuahua so she really needs to be groomed every 6 weeks like clock work. All the girls were so nice that I didn't feel strange about leaving my little pooper there. I also love that Diane goes over the cut and style with you by actually pulling out the clippers and going to work on a small patch to give you an idea. I also love that everyone there was constantly reassuring Muffin so that she would feel comfortable (she is a little timid). The grooming was awesome. She looks so cute and we loved the bandana that was around her neck. I can't wait to take her back in 6 weeks (my appointment is already scheduled). THANK YOU, YELP! read more

I took our shih-tzu Mamas here for the first time and it was a great experience. I had a morning appointment so we were the first ones there. The owner Diane came out to greet us and she was getting to know my baby as I filled out some paperwork. Unfortunately Mamas was on edge (prob because she had 3 shots the day before) and got snappy with Diane - it took a few minutes of us just hanging out for Mamas to be relaxed but Diane was great with her. She showed me their awesome doggy daycare area - they have sectioned "playpens" for dogs that aren't fixed or those with anxiety but also a play area in the middle of the room. You get 90 minutes of free daycare with a groom and I loved knowing that my dog wouldn't be caged up while she waited to be picked up. I went to work after dropping her off so my dad went to get her - it was about 2 hours for the full groom on a small dog. Since I wanted to see how she behaved I called and Diane was very honest with me; she told me Mamas didn't like the clippers on her face but they were able to trim her up with scissors. I think it looks good for the trouble she gave them. Diane also mentioned that at first Mamas was in her own "playpen" but when she seemed comfortable with the other pups they let her roam the play area - sounds like she made some friends! My dad immediately noticed that she was happy and alert, not groggy with that drugged-look she had after leaving our previous groomer. I'm definitely a satisfied customer and I'll be bringing her back. The prices are comparable to other groomers and I don't mind paying a little extra for the spaw treatment ;) Thank you Taj Mapaw!! P.S. I give out my 5 stars sparingly but I would highly recommend this groomer. read more

I couldn't be any happier with the grooming services at Taj Mapaw Spaw. I consider myself hard to please when it comes to grooming my dogs but I seriously can't think of anything negative to say. I've had many groomers of the years and Diane is by far my favorite. My poodle and labradoodle always look just how I like them and I know they are treated well. I've recommended 3 of my friends who all take their dogs as well. They are just as happy. I especially love how the dogs can run around and relax when waiting for me or each other to finish. I also love how patient Diane is with my Labradoodle because he's not a big fan of being groomed and can be quite difficult sometimes. I feel her prices are reasonable and she is always very accommodating when scheduling an appointment. read more

Great place. Our pup has some separation anxiety so we're always a little anxious ourselves before trying a new place for grooming. We told the gentleman at the front desk about her anxiety and dropped her off for a bath and full haircut. We provided a picture of the haircut we wanted and they did a great job. Upon picking her up, he mentioned the groomer cut one of her nails too short so it might be sore. I appreciate transparency and understand things happen so this was not an issue at all. Our dog seemed happy when we picked her up and not overly anxious like she's been when I've picked her up from other groomers. We had an appointment for her and she was ready for pickup within an hour and a half! This is our new go to groomer. read more

After my fur-son went through a traumatic experience at Petco, I hesitated having him groomed. Luckily I found Taj Mawpaw Salon and I was assured this salon was it for my baby. Besides being awesome, what I absolutely love about this salon is that they are kennel-free. Instead of placing the doggies in kennels, they have play pens where dogs can play with each other. Another plus is there service! Give Taj Mawpaw Salon a try! read more

They did a great job with our 2 year old terrier mutt Logan! I was a little bit worried because it was his first time getting professionally groomed and he can get a little mouthy when we touch his paws or face for too long. They were super professional and confident and they said he did great! They did an excellent job with his haircut and he looks like a puppy again. I thought it was reasonably priced for the service we received. We'll be back! read more

This is the ONLY place I will bring my dogs to. Although I live in Irvine, it's totally worth the drive because my dogs always leave happy & pretty. The Owner is very sweet & charges very reasonable prices. I've been going there for the last four years and am so happy that there's a place like this. I'll add more to my review, along with pictures, on my next visit. read more

I am so excited to finally have found a great grooming place to take my dog. I dropped my dog at 11:30 and she was beautifully done an hour and a half later. I loved the fast service and the quality of their work. I also like the fact they are strict with proof of vaccinations and their attention to detail. I will definitely continue to bring my dog here for her routine grooming. Thank you, Tajmapaw!! read more

They do a really awesome job on our Lucy, and the price is pretty decent. You have to make an appointment well in advance though because they book up fast. I like taking our dog there because it really is a spa for her. Take your dog here if you want to treat them well. read more

We can't even begin to express how thankful we are for TajMaPaw Spa. We have a Samoyed.. Who is all fur all the the time. She hates being groomed but Diane is phenomenal as well as everyone who works there. They graciously put up with our pups whining and tons of hair. We truly trust them with our girl and tell all our pup loving friends about them. A definite must use in our books. Thanks TajMaPaw. Here's a picture of our pup freshly groomed today. Excellent job as always and we are so very thankful for them!! read more
