A few things to know
Simple guidelines that keep every pet in our care safe and happy.
💉 Vaccinations
Pets must be up to date on vaccinations for everyone's safety. Dogs need Rabies, DHPP and Bordetella. We prefer records sent before your first visit, and pets should wait 2 days after any vaccination before being groomed.
🚪 Arriving
Arrive a few minutes early so your dog can take care of business first. Dogs stay leashed and cats in carriers while in the lobby. Being on time keeps every pet's day on schedule.
📅 Cancellations
Please give 24 hours' notice to reschedule. A no-show or last-minute cancellation may carry a $15 fee. Arriving more than 15 minutes late may add a small fee or require rescheduling.
➕ Add-On Care
Some pets need a little extra, flea shampoo, de-matting, or extra hands for senior or anxious pets. These are priced case by case and always talked through with you before we begin.
