Pet Grooming in Newport Beach, CA
Newport Beach has a rhythm of its own. Long walks by the harbor, sandy afternoons on Balboa Peninsula, and dogs trotting along the boardwalk with the sea breeze tugging at their fur. It’s a lifestyle many pet owners dream of, but it also creates challenges that only locals truly understand.
It’s a pet-friendly city, and for many residents, animals are not only companions but part of their lifestyle. But if you look closely, the same setting that makes this place idyllic also creates unique challenges for pets. Salt air dries coats, sandy paws invite irritation, and the coastal sun can leave sensitive skin parched.
Add in the social nature of Newport, where pets accompany their owners to cafes and patios, and suddenly grooming becomes an essential piece of wellbeing. Professional grooming in this context is less about bows and trims and more about a trained eye catching things early like subtle changes in skin health, patterns of shedding that hint at stress, or paws that need extra care after frequent beach walks.
A thorough grooming session not only keeps a pet comfortable but also supports long-term health, from reducing matting that can hide infections to easing discomfort that animals can’t always communicate.
This is why Newport pet owners often look for pet groomers who understand both the demands of the local climate and the personalities of their animals. Butter Paws Pet Salon has become a trusted name here for precisely that reason, tailoring care to each pet’s needs, while blending professional expertise with a genuine love for animals.
About - Newport Beach, CA
Newport Beach, CA, is a coastal city in southern Orange County, known for its golden beaches, scenic harbor, and upscale yet laid-back lifestyle. Long before surfers and yachts filled the shoreline, the Tongva people built thriving villages here, later displaced through waves of Spanish, Mexican, and American settlement. The city’s name dates back to 1870, when a small steamer, The Vaquero, proved the bay navigable and inspired James Irvine and James McFadden to call it simply “Newport”.
By the early 1900s, the Pacific Electric Railway connected the area to Los Angeles, ushering in steady growth. Today, it blends its maritime roots with modern coastal living, Balboa Island remains a beloved draw with its ferry, shops, and bayfront paths, while the Balboa Peninsula stretches into the Pacific as a playground of sand and surf.

Marti is excellent! She grooms my two Poms, who can be quite anxious and bratty at the salon, and she takes such great care to ensure that they are calm and happy. Thank you, Marti!

I take my 8 month old puppy to Butter Paws. It is the only place he has ever gone and he loves it. So nice not to have him afraid when he sees the door. He is happy to go and they treat him like their own baby. So glad I found Butter Paws.
