I started taking my golden retriever pup, Tilly, there for her nails. She wouldn't let me even touch her feet, now Tilly loves going there! Today Tilly got groomed! Sarah, the groomer, did an amazing job. She did exactly what I wanted! Tilly is now a happy, clean puppy!

First time ever getting my dogs groomed and they both loved it and looked and smelled amazing. I have an Australian cattle dog and a pomeranian husky. They did everything I had asked. Being first time ever getting groomed I wish they would've given me an estimated time on how long it'd take but I also didn't ask so it's okay. I absolutely loved how kind the ladies were and how paitent. Will be returning!

Great place! Wouldn't think of taking our girl anywhere else. Clean environment and the staff is very friendly and professional. Hayley is a treasure and our lab loves her as well. She is very understanding of the senior citizens and their pets relationship.

I got both of my dogs professionally groomed at Paws N' Claws. Johnny, the miniature poodle, had been groomed at Girard location many times and had always turned out wonderful. Penny, the Pomeranian, is new to me and when I had gotten her she had a lion cut. I had been growing her out for about 6 months and the groomer listened carefully to all my directions and executed the grooming PERFECTLY. I couldn't be any happier! I will definitely continue to go back!
