Just for Paws in St. Charles, IL, earned an honorable mention in the 2020 PETS+ America’s Coolest Stores Contest.

John and Lindsay Webb opened the business in 2014.

It began as a grooming salon with minimal retail, but expanded in 2017 to include a full store.

The couple brings their personal style — described as rustic chic — to the store and salon’s aesthetic.

They regularly shop at antique stores for display items, such as this church window frame.

The sky blue walls in both the store and salon help to create a relaxing atmosphere for people and pets.

Reclaimed wood touches are seen throughout.

Found items mix with products for sale.

The couple loves barn doors, and they found kits at Home Depot to achieve the look without the expense of originals.

More reclaimed wood fronts the grooming desk.

John, a groomer himself, wanted a wide open room for his staff with lots of natural light.

Here he grooms shop and family dog Bogey.

Dogs waiting for their turn on the table or to be picked up relax in their own pet gazebo in the grooming area. The canopied kennels also are available for sale on the retail side.

Kin + Kind products are available in grooming treatments and to take home.

Koda the Campton Hills K-9 gets free grooming for life at Just for Paws.

The Just for Paws Puppy Essentials Pack introduced this year contains full-size bestselling puppy products and a 10-percent off coupon, all in a reusable Just for Paws/Bogey’s Buddies tote bag. Read more about the business in this profile from our October-November issue.
