Pretty Paws and Claws

Pet Groomer

Hello, my name is Katie Miller and I have been grooming cats and dogs for over 6 years. I trained and received my grooming certificate at Betty’s grooming school in Cornelius, Oregon. Following my grooming education, I was employed in many grooming shops in the greater Portland area, gaining valuable experience. The thought of being the proprietor of my own grooming shop has always been a dream. I started the ball rolling by grooming out of my home and increasing my clientele. In addition to grooming out of my home, I started to do nail trimming clinics at Sellwood Dog Supply & Cat Annex with great success.

The increase in business got too big for my home, husband, two dogs, and two cats, so I set up shop in Sellwood Dog Supply. I still trim nails for $5 every other Saturday in Sellwood Dog Supply, and sometimes you might see my stepson Sam, who loves to help me with the dogs. I’m always taking appointments and want to thank my current customers for their continued support and helping me realize my dream of owning my own grooming shop. Read more

    If only every business were as efficiently run as Pretty Paws and Claws ... well, I'd run out of things to complain about, and then pretty soon I'd have nothing to talk about and my wife would be way too happy. So, uh, maybe that's a good thing? ...

    I've taken my dog here in the past and she loved every moment with Katie almost as if my little hoku had claimed her as her momma. Katie had always treated my dog well and performed beyond my expectations. I couldn't have asked for a better groomer

    I take both my dogs to Katie to get their nails trimmed. She's great with them --she works quickly which makes having their nails trimmed as stress-free as possible. She noticed today that it scared my corgi if he could see the clippers so she switched the way she clipped his nails so he couldn't see. ...

    Katie has been grooming my Pomeranian, Toto, for years. He always looks fantastic and the rates are reasonable. We always have fun discussing what creative doggie cuts. Katie really loves the dogs. It is a small little shop filled with doggie love.
