What customers said about cat bathing
Super happy with the service! They communicated clearly, treated my cats well, and gave a clean, professional haircut. Would highly recommend!
Amazing staff and service very helpful my cat use the bathroom in his box. It got in my car and the ladies were very helpful. They wash him down, even though he wasn’t scheduled for a bath. They got him nice and clean. He smelt very good and they clipped his nails and they did such a good job and gave me supplies to…
We took our cat to be groomed here and they did an excellent job! Apparently she also did very well, which makes me happy because that means she was comfortable enough to not freak out. The hair cut is wonderful and she looks great. Highly recommend!
We are so thankful and impressed with Bob and Probable Claws. ☺️ We have a "Fraidy Cat" who needs a calm atmosphere and we found it here. Thank you so much for all that you do and provide, Bob!
