Puppy Program

During the first several visits, we will slowly introduce your new puppy, to all facets of grooming. We will first start with brushing, combing, bathing, and an introduction to the drying process. We will clean their ears and clip their nails. Typically, we will introduce them to the Dremel, for their nails, if they seem amenable. We finish will a light trim of their face, feet, and sanitary areas.

Often times, that will the extent of the first two visits to the salon. In order to progress in our program, we will want to see your pup every four weeks. At the time of the second to third visit, depending on your pup’s behavior and coat condition, we will attempt a full body trim on your puppy.

Your new puppy can keep his/her coat longer with a combination of regular visits, brushing at home, and maintaining regular exposure to other people, dogs, and environments. It’s important that your beloved family member is not afraid of new things. Exposing them, consistently, to these things and proper coat care are essential to success.

We ask for your monthly commitment, for a minimum of three months, in order for us to be able to maintain you as a client. We are working together for long-term success as your puppy grows into an adult dog. The monthly appointments are as much about upholding behaviors towards grooming and the tools, as they are about maintaining your pup’s coat.

Doodle Program

Whether you have a Labradoodle, Goldendoodle, Aussiedoodle, Bernedoodle, Cavapoo, Maltipoo, Cockapoo, Sheepadoodle, or Poodle, those beautiful coats need all of our help to maintain them. As these poodle and doodle mixes have continued to develop, we are seeing so many differences in coat characteristics. You and your neighbor may have the same exact dog, but VERY different coats.

Our method for grooming by time is so important for these breeds. Other factors in time are your pet’s behavior for the grooming process, how much brushing you do at home, the length you are keeping your dog’s coat, you and your dog’s lifestyle.

Does your dog go to doggie daycare, swimming, or a weekly doodle romp? More than likely, they are a harder coat to maintain. Add to that, if you like to keep it long and/or you don’t do much brushing. No judgment, but in order to keep that coat, we have to groom on a very regular schedule.

We have found that the only way to maintain these coats is to develop a program that we require all doodle clients to commit to upholding. We will work with you to devise a plan that takes all of these factors into account. Likely, we will need to see your pup every four to six weeks.

There are outliers. If you like your dog’s coat to be 1 ¼” or longer, we will likely need to see you every few weeks. If their coat is a straighter coat or you go short, we can see you about every eight to ten weeks.

We will mutually discuss the best timeframe. However, we do have to insist on this timeframe in order to continue to be a client. The work is difficult to do, both behaviorally and on a groomer’s body, if we don’t maintain these guidelines. We are committed to you, but just as committed to our valued employees.

Cat Grooming

We are proud to be one of the few salons to provide cat bathing, deshedding, and grooming services to both short and long-haired cats. Our services include everything your cat will need to come away with a healthy and clean coat and feeling fresh and happy. Our comprehensive services include:

  • Massaging bath with specially formulated shampoos and conditioners designed for a cat’s coat
  • Complete blow dry of their coat to a natural precondition for the optimal haircut condition
  • Haircuts can be lion cut or just sanitary and tummy areas to keep your cat clean and cool
  • Nail trimming is included
  • Ear cleaning
  • Matching finishing spray

Anxious kitty? Our tranquil approach and products will help:

  • Feline Calming Shampoo
  • Calming Spray and Oil

We highly recommend a routine of eight to twelve weeks between grooming. Regular grooming significantly reduces shedding, dander, and allergens.

If this is your cat’s first visit with us, we will schedule you on a quieter day, to make sure your cat is a good fit for the environment. If he/she does well and you would like to come on a busier day, we can schedule that for you. All cats must be brought to and from the salon in a safety carrier.

Express Service

Although our service is nearly straight through, it is occasionally necessary, for your pet’s well-being, to provide an express service.  There are specialized benefits to an express groom:

  • One-on-one care with your pet and the groomer from start to finish
  • Preserves your pet’s time, in our care, to an absolute minimum
  • Optimal option for anxious, elderly, or health-compromised pets

When your groomer has dedicated time to your pet, we do not book additional pets and block off time until completion of groom. We offer a straight through service for an additional fee of $20 – $60, depending on time needed, above the cost of the regular grooming.
