Our Founder

Sarah Kowalski

Owner & Lead Groomer

Sarah has been grooming dogs professionally since 2010 and launched Garden State Paws in 2017 to bring stress-free grooming directly to Central NJ families. Fear Free certified and passionate about keeping dogs calm in familiar surroundings.

Before starting Garden State Paws, Sarah worked at traditional salons for 7 years. She saw firsthand how anxious dogs became in the salon environment — the noise, the other dogs, the waiting cages. Mobile grooming was the answer: calm, one-on-one, at the dog's home where they're most comfortable.

I was skeptical about mobile grooming at first. Now I can't imagine going back to a salon. Mia does perfect work every time.
