IT ALL STARTED WHEN…

Paws and Whiskers opened in Mentone in 2009 with the idea to offer a very personal service providing premium pet food, supplies and accessories with an emphasis on stylish and contemporary products for your furry family members and devoted owners.

After realising there was a need for good quality grooming in the area we extended our services and staff to include this and have prided ourselves on providing and maintaining the highest quality grooming and treatment for your dog or cat.

Our store has grown with the times and we have created a space that we feel is relaxing and enjoyable to visit for you, as well as your best furry friend who is also more than welcome in store. You will find a wide array of fashionable accessories, jumpers in the colder seasons, collars, harnesses, treats and toys, all selected to ensure the latest and most stylish way to enhance your lifestyle with a pet. We always have the health and wellbeing of your pets in mind and strive to stock organic and Australian products where possible.
