Our groomers have been professionally trained and are highly qualified (See biography link for profiles on our staff).  They each have specialty breed-specific talents.  We will make every effort to accommodate your individual  grooming requests.  Long hair or short, big or small, we groom them all with TENDER LOVING CARE and to the very best of our ability.

Taking your pet to the groomer should not be a stressful experience for you or your pet.  As long-time pet owners, we understand your concerns about how your dog or cat is cared for, and can assure you that your pet will be treated with the same respect and loving care we give our own pets.

We groom cats as well as dogs, however, since the majority of our grooming pet clients are dogs, the following information pertains to that species.

Grooming can and should be an enjoyable part of every dog's life.  We recommend that you start them as early as possible so that your pet will grow accustomed to the process.  We will teach your pet to stand on a table without being afraid.  We will also help them get used to brushing, bathing, nail trimming, and clipping.  We will make every effort to develop a trusting relationship with your dog. 

As a dog owner you can also help out by frequently handling your dog’s ears and rubbing his legs and feet so that he won't be alarmed when we work on those areas.  Regular grooming can prevent several problems including painful mats, skin disorders, excessive shedding, flea and tick infestation, and many other conditions that can go unnoticed without regular grooming.

INFORMATION ON OUR GROOMING SERVICES

Frequent bathing helps keep your pet's skin healthy and the coat clean and shiny.  Bathing will also help to remove loosened hair and help to keep your home clean and free of fur.   At Spa for Pets we only use natural shampoos that are biodegradable, cruelty free, and non-toxic for your pet.  If your dog or cat requires special shampoo, be sure to let us know.

How often your pet needs to be groomed depends largely on the breed.  Shih tzus, poodles and many other breeds typically need to be groomed (and trimmed) every four to six weeks.  Others may wish to be bathed more frequently.  Wire-haired terriers and other short-haired dogs can go about eight weeks between grooming.   We can put your pet on a regular schedule according to his or her needs.  Your pet will leave our shop looking and feeling great!

Special Shampoo
We have a variety of special shampoos designed for your pet’s comfort and needs.  Upon request, we can use hypoallergenic or oatmeal shampoos for sensitive skin.  We offer flea shampoos and can also use prescriptive shampoos that you bring from your vet.

Ear Cleaning
Many dogs have ears that are very susceptible to infection, excessive wax buildup, and odor.  In an effort to control this we clean the ears thoroughly, as well as pluck out any excessive hair that has grown in the ear canal.

Anal Gland Treatment
The expression of your pets anal glands generally is a natural occurrence, but in the case that it is not, you may request this service at no extra charge.

Toe Nail Trim
Overgrown nails can cause your pet a number of painful problems.  Foot pads can become infected when nails grow into them, causing your pet pain and discomfort.  Nail trimming is a quick remedy that will eliminate most of these issues.  Included with full service baths and brushes/baths and cuts.  For nail trim only, prices range between $15 - $17, depending on size.
