I have been bringing my dogs here for years and have always had such a great experience. I used to…read moretake my shihtzu chihuahua mix, Coco Bear, here for her haircuts and she always came home looking perfect. One thing I really appreciate is how efficient they are here. Before I found them, I tried other groomers in town with Coco Bear and she would be there all day, where as SB Paws and Claws usually have everything done in under two hours. I recently brought in our new rescue, Pepper who we were told is a poodle, yorkie and maltese mix. It was her first haircut and they were so wonderful, updating me throughout the appointment to let me know how Pepper was doing as I was a little nervous her being away from me for the first time. They did a wonderful job of course, and it is clear that they really care about the pets that they work with!

Used to be ok, got better, then fell off a cliff…read more I've been bringing my pup to SB Paws and Claws for years. There is no denying that Arianna and Talia are talented, but what they severely lack is any sense of how to run a business or how to interact with and treat customers. Over the many years I have seen them grow in their business, expanding and getting more and more busy. Unfortunately their hunger to grow their business has been to the detriment of their customers. Gone is the personal touch and connection that they once had with their clients. The one on one conversations and the feeling that they truly value or care about their clients. As recently as earlier this year messages from SB Paws and Claws had a real personal touch, with the business reaching out out to check on us after we had to cancel an appointment due to our pup being injured. That personal touch was what we loved about them. At the most recent visit, it was clear they were too busy for any kind of discussion with me beyond getting the bare minimum information about what I wanted done, then literally turning her back on me mid discussion and walking away. Kind reminder texts and cheerful photos of my pup mid-groom have been replaced with curt and rude text messages. Pleasant and cheerful discussions at the front desk have been replaced with rushed and hurried interactions. Slow, methodical and skillful haircuts have been replaced with sloppy rush jobs. After years of being a patron of Paws and Claws, I'm taking my business elsewhere.

I cannot say enough about how much I like Kerry-Anne and her services. She is incredibly…read morecommunicative, always letting me know exactly when she is arriving. She listens to how I want my dog groomed, and she leaves my dog looking amazing! She also really loves dogs and is gentle and loving with our little one. This is so important to me, as previous groomers have really frightened Mia. I love that she has Mia on a grooming schedule, which has really helped keep Mia free from matting. She is SO much better than the other mobile grooming service we have used before. We have used her for about 6 months now, and I look forward to years of having her groom Mia.

Number one, I do not worry about penny coming home sick which was a frequent problem taking her to groomers with many dogs in the shop. Secondly, Sunny is always on time and I don't need to dedicate half of the day to the project. She's a dog lover and it shows with Penny's attitude towards her on arrival. Last but not least, she's an excellent groomer and Penny looks adorable every time. I can highly recommend and encourage you to schedule your next appointment with Sunny!

Thought about it went and got my dog and brought her home I will take her to another place.

Jeremy has experience with Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers while many groomers do not, and often defer to giving our precious Lola a golden doodle trim. Jeremy's traditional Wheaten cut was exactly what we were looking for: the preciseness, care, and thoughtfulness is exactly what we were looking for in our go-to groomer. We found the right place! Please support this small business that performs high quality grooming services. And Jeremy could not be more professional, nicer and more accommodating. Overall, a 10/10 experience. PS - our Lola is typically afraid to be dropped off at the groomers but this was the very first time she ran inside and was hopping around, no barking. It was a good sign and for good reason. See photos of her Wheaten Terrier haircut that looked a lot better in person! It's hard for her to stand still for the camera...

Camp Canine had a terrible tragedy this weekend. I have watched Camp Canine care for thousands of…read moredogs and their owners for over 40 years with a near-perfect track record. (No company or person is perfect and over 40 years of caring for hundreds of thousands of dogs, there will be some unfortunate events) The owners are passionate animal lovers. They give troubled dogs second chances and have donated thousands of nights of boarding. I once saw the owner take in a stray cat that was so flea ridden that its gums were white. The owner paid for the stray cat to get a blood transfusion. To me it was crazy, to her it was just what she does. I guarantee that over 99% of these recent reviews have had ZERO personal experience with Camp Canine. ZERO. But Apparently the social media lynch mob will stop at nothing short of death to this great company that has contributed to the Santa Barbara community for over 40 years. The mob wants blood. They want the owners and the dozens of employees to be ruined. The owners (wonderful people) are receiving credible death threats and being called every vile name in the English language. I am so disgusted with what our society has become. No shred of hesitation before going in for the kill like rabid animals. If you've read this far, you may have a shred of independent thinking. You are the few who may stop to consider the reason Bruce's owners weren't called immediately. It was because the employee that knows them best was going to take Bruce to them to apologize and hug them am cry with them instead of making an impersonal phone call. For this, she is getting death threats. For this, the owners "must die". Everyone there was distraught and in shock, deciding what to do in the terrible moment. The puppy being placed in a plastic tub was a man's (not an employee) quick decision which was not good. That is what is causing the most outcry in all of this. Think about it. Bruce had already tragically passed. That was not going to change. The heart broken employee wanted to deliver him personally to the owners that she knew would be devastated. That was going to be very hard to do. But she was going to do it. "Don't call them. I will take Bruce to them." For this she must be punished and shamed to death. The timeline is important too. Bruce was discovered at 1:30. Chris came at 3:00 to pick him up. That is not hours of "hiding the incident from the owners". People need to stop this horrific lynch mob, blood thirsty frenzy of disgusting behavior. God forbid any of those "perfect" people ever make a grave mistake. I would never wish on them what they are so freely dishing out here. I would never be such a vile vindictive person. It is utterly disgusting.

It goes without saying that our hearts go out to the pet parents who lost Bruce. And can't imagine how they are feeling. That said, the mob mentality seen here on Yelp and other social media --often from people who have never even been to the facility--along with the death threats, is mind-boggling. What kind of human beings are we becoming through social media? Most of the comments are coming from people who likely do not know that this company has been in business for 40+ years and this is the first time anything like this has happened. They have gone on record taking 100% responsibility for this horrible accident, and they are devastated for what happened with Bruce. One of the co-owners is a dedicated advocate who founded and runs K-911 Animal Rescue, which gives troubled dogs a second chance and empowers families and shelters.
