About Us

We don't just look after dogs. We love them like family.

Pampered Paws started with one simple goal: to create a place where dogs feel loved, calm, and truly at home. Today that little idea has grown into a community of dog lovers across three Cape Town locations, treating every wag, snuggle and bath time like it matters. Because it does.

Our Story

From one big love, three happy homes

We started Pampered Paws with one goal: to create a place where dogs feel loved, calm, and truly at home. What began as a small idea has grown into a community of dog lovers who care deeply about every wag, snuggle, and bath time.

From grooming to daycare, from daily walks to overnight stays, every part of what we do is built around one belief: every dog deserves to be treated like family. So that's exactly what we do.

What Drives Us

Our mission and values

The promise behind every wash, every walk, every cuddle.

🎯

Our Mission

To create safe, happy spaces where dogs feel loved, calm, and cared for. We believe grooming, daycare, walking and overnight stays should feel like a second home: gentle, personal, and full of love.

💛

Our Values

Kindness. Patience. Care. We treat every dog like family and every visit with heart. From the products we use to the way we work together, we keep tails wagging and owners smiling.

What We Believe

Six small things that make a big difference

The everyday choices that turn a salon visit into a home-from-home.

💆

Gentle, never rushed

Every wash, brush and trim is done at your dog's pace, not the clock's.

🌱

Natural products

Skin-friendly shampoos and conditioners chosen for sensitive coats and happy noses.

🚶

Daily walks included

Fresh air, sniffs and exercise built into every daycare package and overnight stay.

🛏️

Real staff sleep-in

Every overnight nightcare guest has a real human sleeping in.

🏠

Home-style spaces

Calm, welcoming environments. Not clinical, not chaotic. Just like home.

✂️

Dog-loving team

Trained stylists and caretakers who genuinely live for tail-wags.

The Journey

How a small idea grew into a Cape Town family

Three locations. One promise. Every dog leaves loved.

The Beginning

One small spa, one big love

Pampered Paws opened its doors with a single goal: to give Cape Town dogs a place that felt less like a salon and more like a second home.

Growing the Family

Daycare, walking and nightcare

Loyal pet parents kept asking us to take care of their dogs while they worked, walked, and travelled. So we built a daycare, added daily walks, and welcomed our first overnight guests.

Three Locations

Claremont · Sea Point · Constantiaberg

From the Southern Suburbs to the Atlantic Seaboard, our three Cape Town homes welcome dogs of every shape, size and coat type, seven days a week.

Today

A community, not just a business

We're proud of what we've built, and even prouder of the four-legged regulars who pull on the lead all the way to our front door.

What pet parents say

★★★★★
Pampered Paws Claremont did an absolutely amazing job grooming my puppy! The haircut is perfect, neat, even, and makes my pup look even more adorable. The staff was incredibly friendly, professional, and made sure my puppy felt comfortable throughout the process. The attention to detail and care they put into their work is truly impressive. Highly recommend them for top-notch grooming and excellent service!
