By InquiryDirt, bacteria, yeast, and allergens hide deep in the pores and hair follicles — where no shampoo can reach. Thera-Clean does.
Thera-Clean Microbubble technology generates billions of ultra-fine bubbles, each measuring just 3–20 micrometers — smaller than most bacteria. These negatively charged bubbles penetrate deep, attracting and lifting impurities through a process that requires no chemicals, no rubbing, and no irritation.
Pure water is transformed into billions of bubbles at 3–20 micrometers — smaller than most bacteria — each carrying a negative electrical charge.
Negatively charged bubbles are drawn deep into follicles and pores, attracting and binding to positively charged contaminants — dirt, bacteria, and allergens.
The bubbles collapse, releasing energy that lifts and carries away all bound impurities — no chemicals, no rubbing, no irritation. The negative ion effect soothes your dog throughout.
Neutralizes odor-causing bacteria where it originates — keeping your dog fresher far longer between grooms.
Removes trapped allergens and irritants that cause chronic itching, hot spots, and inflammation — without chemicals.
White dogs look brighter. Dark coats deepen. All coats feel noticeably softer — results you can see the moment you pick up your dog.
Regular treatments significantly minimize shedding and airborne dander — better for your dog and your home.
The negative ion effect mirrors nature at the base of a waterfall. Most dogs visibly calm during treatment.
With cleaner follicles, topical and oral medications prescribed by your vet absorb and work more effectively.
When your dog has encountered a skunk, garbage, or anything that demands immediate action — this is the treatment that solves it. It does not mask the problem. It eliminates it. Hydra Professional and Thera-Clean, start to finish.
Some situations require more than a standard service. These treatments are discussed personally, priced by consultation, and held to the same standard as everything we do.
Intensive undercoat removal for thick, double-layered coats — reducing shedding, preventing matting, and restoring comfort. Finished with a Hydra Professional conditioning treatment.
A careful, time-intensive process to release localized matting using professional tools — prioritizing skin integrity and your dog's comfort throughout. Priced by time and coat condition.
When a coat is too severely matted to treat any other way, a full reset is the most humane path forward — followed by a Hydra Professional deep cleanse and restoration treatment.
A targeted cleansing treatment followed by Hydra Professional's restoration system — eliminating irritants, rebalancing the coat, and leaving the skin calm, clean, and hydrated.
A puppy's first grooming experience shapes how they feel about the salon for life. Calm, patient, and built around their comfort.

Every specialty cut at The Paws is a consultation — not a menu item. Your groomer assesses your dog's breed, coat condition, structure, and your vision before any scissors are lifted. Pricing is determined by the complexity of the style, the condition of the coat, and the time required to execute it properly. We always confirm the investment before we begin.
Breeds we work with include Miniature Schnauzer, Mini Goldendoodle, Havanese, Long-Hair Dachshund, Golden Retriever, Bichon Frisé, and more. If you do not see your breed, reach out — if we can do it right, we will.
Get in Touch →A full structured day in our calm, private salon — managed by our dedicated care team. Your dog receives one-on-one attention, play, rest, and care in our environment. Drop off in the morning, pick up by end of day.
I have two dogs, one who is battling cancer and another who is reactive, so trusting a groomer is extremely important to me. Vanessa and her partner truly go above and beyond. Every time my dogs come back, they look incredible, smell so good, and are clearly treated with so much care and patience. Beyond their talent, their attitude truly stands out — they're kind, calm, and genuinely positive people. I can feel how pure their intentions are, and that alone gives me so much peace. I trust them completely and never feel stressed leaving my dogs in their care.
The best groomers on Staten Island. Vanessa and her fiancé are so lovely — caring and loving. They truly take their time to deliver the best results. We trust them 100%. My dogs Luna and Leo both loved coming in. We can't wait for our next appointment.
Vanessa is absolutely amazing. You can tell right away that she truly loves what she does — gentle, patient, and incredibly skilled. My dogs have always come back looking great and feeling happy. I trust her completely and highly recommend her to anyone who genuinely cares about their dog.
I can't say enough good things. Vanessa truly loves what she does and it shows. My dog Bella absolutely enjoys her visits and always comes home looking amazing and so happy. I've already recommended Vanessa to two of my friends because she's simply the best.
