Some customers say the groomers handle difficult or anxious pets calmly, including cats that usually become distressed.
Several cat owners report calm grooming visits and good results, including a cat that did not become distressed during the session.

Customers have used the mobile grooming service repeatedly and reported good experiences with it.
One customer specifically found the pet salon neat and clean, alongside positive comments on the grooming work.
If a particular food or toy is unavailable, staff may be able to order it rather than leaving you to search elsewhere.
A dated review reported 100 AED for grooming small dogs, offering a useful price reference to ask about when booking.
Book early. Reserve at least a week ahead rather than relying on a same-day appointment; one review says the schedule is regularly full.
Confirm hours. Check the opening time before setting out; a Sunday review says the shop opens at 1pm and describes a door-access problem.
Ask about hygiene. Before grooming, ask how tools and the shower area are sanitised, given a review’s concern about shared equipment.
Explain sensitivities. Tell the groomer about anxiety, knots and drying sensitivities in advance, especially if your pet dislikes a loud blower.
Stay observant. If your pet is anxious, ask how handling will be monitored and whether you can remain nearby rather than leaving without discussing the process.
Check pricing. Ask for the current total before booking; an older review found full cat grooming a little expensive, while another reported 100 AED for small dogs.

The Bottom Line
Precious Paws Pet Spa combines a pet shop with grooming in the heart of Oud Metha. Customers use it for cat and dog grooming, spa sessions, pet food and care products; reviews also mention mobile grooming and day care. The shop can be useful for routine supplies as well as a booked grooming visit, and one customer says unavailable items can be ordered.
The positive experiences are quite specific. Some owners say difficult cats remain calm, while others have returned for years because their pets appear comfortable and leave looking well groomed. The salon has also been described as neat and clean, and a dated review reported 100 AED for small-dog grooming.
There is a serious counterpoint. Other reviews allege rough handling, cuts, burns, bleeding, uneven trims and pets left wet or cold. Several customers also raise hygiene concerns, including suspected infections and tools they believed were not sanitised.
These are customer reports, but they are important to discuss before booking. Appointments may fill a week ahead, so reserve early and confirm opening hours. Ask about the assigned groomer, sanitation process, drying method and how an anxious pet will be handled.
If you are considering mobile grooming, clarify the same points before leaving your pet in the van.
