About Pawsh
A neighborhood salon that treats every pet like family
Certified groomers, a quiet cat room and a simple promise: your pet is handled gently, never rushed and never left in a crate all day.
Our story
The salon we wanted for our own dogs
Maya Delgado groomed for two years in a busy chain salon before opening Pawsh with one table, one tub and a simple idea: no dog should spend all day in a crate waiting for a haircut.
Word got around the dog park. Today six groomers and bathers work across four tables, two walk-in tubs and a separate cat room, and we still book every groom so your pet goes home as soon as they’re done.

The salon
Built around comfortable pets
Every corner of the salon was planned to keep pets calm, safe and comfortable.
- Walk-in tubs and hydraulic lift tables for big and senior dogs
- Quiet, adjustable dryers and no unattended cage dryers
- Roomy, airy suites for the short wait before pickup
- A separate cat room, away from the dogs

Our doodle Biscuit used to come home from other salons shaking. With Emily he trots in like he owns the place, and his teddy-bear face is perfect every time.

I didn’t think anyone could groom our cat Juniper without sedation. Ryan did a lion cut in an hour and sent me a photo halfway through. Total pro.

The de-shedding bath is magic. Two weeks later there’s still hardly any husky fur on my couch. Dale was so patient with Koda’s dramatic howling.
