POLICIES & PROCEDURES

ALL DOG & CAT BREEDS (BUNNIES TOO!)


We groom all dog and cat breeds, including large dogs and the occasional bunny as well. For pets that don’t require a haircut, we offer a bath and brush, nail trimming, ear cleaning, sanitary area trim and gland expression as requested.

APPOINTMENT LENGTH


Please allow 2-4 hours for the average appointment. Larger dogs and specialty

styling may require additional time. We aim

to complete special needs pets as soon as possible, and to accommodate customers’

time constraints to the best of our ability.

VACCINATIONS REQUIRED


Proof of current rabies vaccination is required by law prior to appointments. Please allow

48 hours post-vaccination before visiting.

We recommend staying up-to-date on all other vaccines for the pet’s safety.

PRICING


Each breed has a baseline fee, though

the final price is dependent upon the

pet’s size, condition, temperament, styling preferences and special needs. Specific quotes may be provided after seeing the

pet and assessing the condition of the

coat at drop-off for the appointment.

AGGRESSIVE & HIGH-ANXIETY PETS


We are able to accommodate most

pets without an issue or taking considerable measures. If needed, we muzzle those that show signs of aggression. For pets with severe anxiety, we recommend contacting their vet for a mild sedative, usually administered two hours prior to the appointment. Please let us know

when medicating so we can plan to

work while it’s most effective.


CREDIT CARD ON FILE


Customers will be required to provide a credit card for future appointments.


CANCELLATION & NO SHOWS


Please be sure to call or leave a message

if you need to cancel or reschedule an appointment for any reason. No shows may result in a $35 fee.

STAYING THROUGHOUT THE GROOM


Most pets settle down considerably after

their owner leaves the shop. Otherwise, if they sense the owner’s presence, it often much more challenging for the groomer to work.


LATE PICK-UP


Pets must be picked up within one hour of

notification. Please note, the shop closes at 4:00pm. Any pick-up past 4:15pm will incur

a $15 fee for every 15 minutes past 4:00pm.
