About Silky Paws

Silky Paws is a full-service, mobile dog grooming salon on wheels for dogs 20 pounds and under. The owner-operator comes to your home or location in a self-contained, fully equipped grooming van.

The company was created after the owner-operator, Kay Sir, noticed a difference in her dog after grooming visits. While exploring different groomers and taking her dog in inconsistently, she noticed a difference not only in his haircuts but in his skin and coat after each visit.

While she was looking for a career change focused on helping people and dogs, she saw the need for a groomer more focused on health than vanity. Being a detail oriented dog-mother herself, and knowing she didn’t want to groom in a salon setting, she developed Silky Paws Mobile Grooming so she could focus on the health and wellbeing of the dogs she groomed.

Welcome To Our Family

We can’t wait to get started making your dog the healthiest they can be
Kay Sir used to be a travel agent, she loved her fast-paced work environment on computers but needed a change. Her love for her dog Yogi and the differences she noticed in groomers inspired her to start the business.
The dog’s health and wellbeing is most important – humanity over vanity – it’s all about the dog here at Silky Paws
  • We don’t do assembly line style grooming
  • We don’t do a la carte services, you can’t do one service properly without the others
  • We don’t focus on vanity – we want the dog to be comfortable
  • Skin and coat health, and a pleasant experience for the dog is most important

Why do you need to see my dog every 4 weeks?

  • By 5-6 weeks the dog has a higher likelihood of being matted, and scheduling every 6 weeks doesn’t allow leniency for vacations or emergencies where 6 weeks may turn into 8. This allows for the best possible care and managed wellbeing of the dog.

What does fully self contained van mean?

  • We don’t need to plug into your house for energy
  • Our energy source doesn’t require a generator
  • We utilize a battery inverter system to put safety first

Do you wash my dog in the same water as other dogs?

  • All water is unused, freshwater
  • We use warm water to ensure comfort

What about A/C and Heat?

  • We have A/C and heat to ensure your dog is comfortable in all temperatures and weather conditions
