Lila and the Paws & Pizzazz team in Austin, TX bring big love, happy tails, and expert care to every single furry client. We treat your pet like family — because that's exactly what they are.
From morning walks to glamour grooms, here are the services Austin pets go absolutely wild for.
Give your pup the adventure they've been dreaming of. Our 30- and 60-minute walks keep tails wagging, energy balanced, and sniffers satisfied in every Austin neighborhood. GPS-tracked every step of the way.
From $22 / walkBath, blow-dry, trim, nail filing, ear cleaning, and a spritz of our signature pet-safe cologne — your furball leaves looking runway-ready. Every session is calm, gentle, and totally stress-free.
From $55 / sessionHeading out of town? Your pet stays right where they're most comfortable — home. We handle feeding, playtime, cuddles, and check-in updates so you can travel without a worry in the world.
From $40 / visitI'm Lila Mendoza, and Paws & Pizzazz is my heart poured into a business. What started as a simple love for animals grew into a full-fledged Austin pet services company built around one idea: every pet deserves to feel celebrated, safe, and genuinely cared for — not just managed. That's the Pizzazz promise.
Our mission is simple — to be the team Austin pet parents trust completely. We show up on time, we communicate constantly, and we make sure your dog, cat, or whatever delightful creature you share your life with gets individual attention and real affection. No assembly lines here. Just people who genuinely adore animals.
We believe in being fun AND reliable — because why should those two things be mutually exclusive? Our values are rooted in honesty, kindness, and a healthy obsession with making sure every pet has the best possible day. We take pet behavior seriously, we keep up with training best practices, and we never stop learning how to do better.
My days are packed with walks down South Congress, grooming sessions that end in happy dances (from the dogs, not just us), and a lot of very enthusiastic tail wags. If you're in Austin and you want your pet treated like the absolute VIP they are, you've found your team. We can't wait to meet your fur baby!

Don't just take our word for it — here's what Austin's happiest pet owners have to share.
"Lila and her team have been walking my golden retriever, Cooper, every weekday for four months now, and the difference in his energy and mood is remarkable. I get a photo and GPS summary after every single walk. It's the kind of reliability you just can't put a price on — though their prices are super fair too!"

"I was so nervous leaving my two cats for the first time when I traveled for work. The Paws & Pizzazz team did drop-in visits twice a day and sent me updates every single time. My cats were calm and happy when I got home — zero guilt. I will never use anyone else. Lila has completely won my trust."

"My doodle Winnie used to dread groomers — the shaking, the hiding, all of it. After her first session with Paws & Pizzazz she trotted out with a bow in her hair and her tail going a million miles an hour. Whatever magic Lila works, it's real. Winnie's booked for monthly grooms from here on out!"
