A bit about the area

What we hear from Venice clients.

Venice is full of dog people, and full of grooming options that have drifted toward assembly-line work at boutique prices. The Pet Affaire is the other end of that spectrum: small, owner-operated, scissor finishing on every cut, and one pet at a time so nobody waits in a kennel all day.

If you live anywhere in 90291, you can be at our door in under ten minutes. Cat clients especially appreciate that we book dog-free windows so the studio stays quiet — most cats settle in immediately when there’s no barking next door.

If you’re looking for great dog grooming in Santa Monica, I highly recommend The Pet Affaire.

My dog Hemingway has been groomed many times over the years, but I have honestly never seen him look this good. His coat was beautifully trimmed, his paws were perfectly cleaned up, and even the little details around his face and ears were done with real care.

What impressed me the most was how calm and happy he was when I picked him up. Anyone with a dog knows that says a lot about the way they’re treated during grooming.

There are countless options for dog grooming in Los Angeles, but the level of care, attention to detail, and kindness toward the dogs here really stands out. Hemingway will definitely be back.

We absolutely love The Pet Affaire! We’ve been using them for over 30 years with multiple dogs and their service is unbeatable. All of our dogs have always looked forward to going there and they always look amazing when they come home. The owners are wonderful and I wouldn’t think of going anywhere else. My new little guy loved his first grooming and it’s nice to know he will look forward to going just as much! They treat you like family and they really care! Thank you so much for all the amazing work you do!

I love bringing my dog here. The owner is so kind and welcoming. Even though my dog has anxiety, he always has a good experience and doesn’t mind coming back.
