Call the shopBooking
Send a request with your dog’s details and a day that suits you. We confirm every appointment by text or a quick call — so nothing is booked until you hear back from us.
Request a visitWhat to expect on the day
Arrive a few minutes early
It gives your dog a moment to sniff around and settle before anything starts.
Tell us how they are travelling
Whether they are relaxed, wary, or had a rough night — it changes how we begin.
Leave a number we can reach
For a first groom with a nervous dog, we may text a photo or a question mid-visit.
We will tell you how long to allow
When we confirm your appointment we will say roughly how long your dog will be with us.

Questions we get a lot
Yes — that is a big part of what this shop is for. Tell us in the booking notes what sets them off: the dryer, the clippers, having their paws handled, other dogs. We build extra time into the visit, start slowly, and take breaks when your dog asks for one. If the first visit is only a bath and a brush-out because that is all they can manage, that still counts as a good visit. We get a little further next time.
Baths start at $40 and full grooms at $65. Where a dog lands depends on size, coat length and how matted the coat is — matted hair takes real time to work through gently. We look at your dog before anything starts and tell you the price then, so there is never a surprise at the counter.
Yes. We take one dog at a time, so everything runs on booked times. Send a request through the booking form or call the shop, and we will confirm a day and a time with you.
A bath is a warm wash, a gentle dry, a full brush-out and a nail trim. A full groom is all of that plus a haircut shaped to your dog. If your dog's coat is short and you just want them clean and comfortable, a bath is usually the right call. If they are shaggy, or you want a tidier shape, book the groom.
Absolutely. Nail trims are $15 and teeth brushing is $10, and both can be booked on their own or added to a bath or groom. Plenty of dogs start with just a nail trim so they can get used to the place first.
It depends on the dog, the coat and what you have booked — and we would rather give you an honest range than a number we have to hurry to hit. When we confirm your appointment we will tell you roughly how long to allow, and we will never rush a dog to make a time.
Tuesday through Saturday, 9 to 5. We are closed Sunday and Monday. If you call while we are mid-groom, leave a message and we will get back to you between dogs.
