Pet Groomer Makes Pups and Kitties Pretty
Community Banking at its Best

If you’re looking for a convenient, professional spot for making your small dog or cat look its best, Petite Paws may be the place for you (and them). The small-breed grooming shop opened in November 2021. Owner Lisa Tillman has about 25 years of experience in Florida, including owning her own shop for 18 years. She moved to the Lehigh PHOTOS BY JANE GEIST PHOTOGRAPHY Valley to be closer to her aging parents; after their passing, she decided to stay.
She originally worked for another local groomer before striking out on her own. “I had many customers from the West End, and I was confident they’d follow me, so I looked at various spots in the Theater District before settling here.”
Petite Paws offers haircutting and styling – as the owner chooses and in accordance with various breed types – nail clipping, ear cleaning and similar services. All visits are by appointment only; “People’s pets are important, and I reserve enough time to do the job right,” she said. “I don’t move clients through here like an assembly line.”
The shop is dedicated to grooming, with no retail merchandise available. Pricing ranges from $50 - $100 for cats; dogs begin at $50 and go up. “Different breeds have different requirements,” Tillman explains.
Many of her previous clients have followed her, and she’s done business with her neighbors as well. “It’s obvious that people in the West End take good care of their pets,” she noted.
Tillman expects her business to grow as the neighborhood gets to know her better, and is already seeking an experienced fulltime pet groomer. Call her at the number below if you’re interested.
