About Us
City Paws was created by a couple who simply loved dogs and wanted grooming to feel different.
After seeing how busy, high-turnover grooming saloons can be, we realised many dogs weren’t getting the time, patience, and calm environment they truly need. Grooming shouldn’t feel rushed or stressful- especially for nervous, older or first time pups.
So we decided to open City Paws with one clear goal: to make grooming a safe, calm and positive experience for every dog that walks through our door.
Our Approach
At City Paws, your dog is never “just another appointment”.
We purposely do not overbook and we don’t aim to groom 6-8 dogs per groomer.
Instead, we work on a one-to-one basis, giving each dog our full attention from start to finish.
This means:
- No noisy queues of barking
- No long hours waiting in cages
- No rushing through appointments
Your dog gets time to settle, build trust, and be groomed at a pace they are comfortable with.
Safety & Comfort First
Your dog’s welfare always comes before appearance.
If a dog becomes anxious, tired, or overwhelmed, we slow down, take breaks and adapt the groom to what they can cope with. We would rather send a dog home comfortable and happy instead of pushing them beyond their limits.
We use gentle handling, positive reassurance and a calm environment to make grooming as stress-free as possible – especially for puppies, senior dogs and nervous dogs.
Location
Come and visit your local dog groomers at 98 Alexandra Park Road N10 2AE. We are located on the small parade of shops which include a green grocer, pharmacy, bakery, cafes and a pub. We are a 5 minute walk away from the famous Alexandra Park where you can take your pup to have a run around before their grooming appointment.
Getting to Us
If you’re using TFL, the buses 102 and 299 stop directly in front or opposite our store. The nearest station to us is Bounds Green underground which is a 10 minute walk.
Free parking is available near the store.

This is such a gem of a shop! The couple who own and run this shop are the loveliest people, and they have such a lovely selection of toys and snacks. My dog loves this place, she even gets excited when I say "City Paws"! If my dog likes someone or something, you really know it's special, and this is just one of those places.
Just picked up my Cocker Spaniel Hugo from City Paws groomers in Muswell Hill and I can’t believe how beautiful he looks.Definitely the best cut he have ever had and I can’t recommend City Paws highly enough. After a few bad experiences I was quite apprehensive but it is such a relief to find somewhere that understands exactly what I wanted and achieves it. City Paws team done an amazing job and beyond! Thank you we will definitely be returning!
So friendly, so efficient Found my new groomers Would highly recommend
Brilliant service!! I took my large dog to be groomed here and unlike most groomers they was very welcoming to the larger breed and provided such an amazing service! I would highly recommend them to anyone! Such lovely friendly people!
I took my Caucasian Shepherd here and they did a fantastic job. It was hard finding a groomer willing to work with a large breed, but they had no problem at all. She looked amazing when they were done. I highly recommend them, especially for large breed dogs.
Our Unita was groomed to perfection, I was so pleased and even she was! Unita is a big caucasian shepherd dog and it was not a problem at all. Totally recommend. Thank you!
We needed a groomer around here! Great service by a lovely team. Our little maltese is now a regular
