Services
Full-Service Dog Grooming
Our comprehensive grooming package includes bath, haircut, nail trim, brushing, and optional add-ons like deshedding or teeth brushing. Each session lasts 1.5-3 hours depending on size and complexity. We tailor services to breed standards and owner preferences while maintaining pet comfort.
Full-Service Dog Bathing
This service provides thorough bathing, nail trimming, brushing, and ear cleaning without hair clipping. Ideal for dogs needing hygiene maintenance rather than styling. We use pH-balanced shampoos and conditioners suited to your pet's coat type and skin needs.
Deshedding
Specialized deshedding treatments remove loose undercoat hair to reduce shedding and improve coat health. We employ breed-appropriate tools and techniques to minimize discomfort while maximizing effectiveness for both short- and long-haired breeds.
Ear Cleaning/Plucking
Professional ear cleaning removes debris and wax buildup while plucking excess hair prevents infections. Our gentle process uses vet-approved solutions and follows breed-specific guidelines to maintain optimal ear health safely.
Teeth Brushing
We provide thorough teeth brushing using enzymatic pet-safe toothpaste to combat plaque and freshen breath. This service promotes oral health while acclimating dogs to dental care routines for improved long-term wellness.
