Pet Grooming
Our comprehensive grooming service includes hypoallergenic shampoo, hand-drying, brushing, and styling with clippers or hand scissoring. Sanitary trims, nail filing, and ear cleaning ensure a polished finish. Prices vary by breed, size, and coat condition, with consultations available for complex cases like heavily matted coats.
Shampoo Services
Specialty shampoos address specific needs: Hypoallergenic for sensitive skin, Silky Show for damaged coats, Citrusil Plus for deodorizing, and Flea & Tick solutions. Each treatment includes a relaxing massage and thorough rinsing, leaving coats clean, conditioned, and fragrant while addressing skin sensitivities or pest concerns.
Deep Conditioning
Intensive conditioning treatments restore moisture and shine to dry or damaged coats. The Silky Show formula uses silk protein and safflower oil, while The Luxury Remoisturizer penetrates the hair shaft with organic aloe vera. These services repair texture and enhance manageability for a healthy, glossy finish.
Add-On Services
Customize your pets grooming experience with add-ons like de-shedding treatments for double-coated breeds, teeth brushing, color application, and targeted trims. Prices vary by breed and size, with options tailored to maintain coat health and appearance between full grooming sessions.
Walk-In Services
Daily walk-in services from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM include nail trimming, pad shaving, ear cleaning, and minor trims. These maintenance-focused options provide flexibility for urgent needs or touch-ups, ensuring pets stay fresh and comfortable without a full appointment.
