Bark & Purr
A quiet, unhurried sanctuary for dogs & cats — where your anxious one is met by name, at their pace, by people trained to keep them at ease.
Allen voted us Best Groomer in the Best of Allen readers' poll, our third year in a row winning. Thank you.
Book your visitWe protect calm before anything else — because a pet who feels safe is a pet who gets a better groom, and a PAWrent who feels that comes home to a happier animal.
No conveyor belt. Each sPAW Day is paced to the pet — the nervous rescue, the senior cat, the puppy on their first visit. A few things, done beautifully.
The full sPAW Day — bath, brush-out, breed-aware styling and the finishing touches — delivered at a pace your dog sets. Low-stress handling, quiet tools, and a groomer who learns their tells.

Cats aren’t an afterthought here. A calmer, separate rhythm — minimal restraint, feline-first handling, and de-shedding or a lion trim from people who actually like working with cats.

When you travel, they stay somewhere that feels like rest — not a kennel. Quiet rooms, real routines, and a T.A.I.L.S. Report so you know how their day went, wherever you are.

The thing that keeps anxious pets calm isn’t a product — it’s a rhythm. Here’s the one we hold to, every time.
No rush, no crowd at the door. We greet your pet at their level and let them set the pace into a space built to feel quiet.
The same trained hands, learning what soothes yours specifically — where they like to be touched, what they don’t, when they need a pause.
Tranquil Tail Grooming™ at their tempo. Breaks when they need them. Never restrained into compliance — eased into trust.
You come back to a happy pet and a short, honest note on how their day went — the small wins, the things we noticed, the next best date to return.

Slide to see a real Bark & Purr sPAW Day. No drama, no muzzle stress — just a careful groom and a pet who got there at their own pace.
My cat has never let anyone near her with clippers. They took an hour just to let her settle — and she came home looking incredible and completely unbothered. I’ve never seen anything like it.
For the regulars. The pets who do best on a steady rhythm, and the PAWrents who’d rather not think about it. Predictable pricing, priority booking, and Zen Paws Rewards built in.
Book a sPAW Day, or call and just talk it through — especially if yours is the anxious one. That’s exactly who we’re built for.
