Our skilled groomers provide personalized services in a safe, comfortable environment, ensuring your dog looks great and feels even better. Check out our full range of services below:

SERVICE DESCRIPTION
Bath Every bath includes a heated massage, shampooing and conditioning, nail and paw pad trim, and ear cleaning. Perfect for maintaining hygiene between grooms or for breeds that don’t require haircuts.
Full Groom Our most popular service combines the Bath service with a professional haircut. Whether you want to maintain breed standards or create a custom look, our groomers will help you achieve the perfect style for your dog.
Pedicure Add a pop of personality to your pup’s paws! We apply pet-safe nail polish in your choice of colors. This fun add-on is perfect for special occasions, holidays, or just because your dog deserves to look fabulous from head to toe.
Puppy Cut A practical, low-maintenance style where the head and body fur are trimmed to the same uniform length. Best for active dogs, warm weather, or owners who prefer easy upkeep. Our complete Bath service is included.
Scissor Cut This cut creates a fluffy, natural look with hair maintained at longer than 1½ inches. This results in a softer, more textured finish that showcases your dog’s coat. Ideal for breeds whose coats looks best with volume and length.
Shave Down We shave the body short while leaving hair longer on the head and tail for a balanced, proportionate look. Best for summer months, severely matted coats that can’t be saved, or dogs with skin conditions that require monitoring.
Strip Our thorough clipping service provides an all-over short cut. This creates a uniform appearance that’s great for heat relief, medical reasons requiring skin access, or owners seeking low-maintenance options.
Shed-Less Treatment This specialized service reduces shedding by 60-80%. It includes a bath with coat-separating formula, de-shedding solution, high-velocity drying, thorough brushing, and finishing with the Furminator tool for best results.

Benefits of Professional Grooming

Beyond keeping your pet looking beautiful, regular grooming helps to…

  • Prevent painful matting
  • Maintain healthy skin and coat
  • Keep nails at safe lengths to protect joints and posture
  • Detect early signs of health problems (like lumps, parasites, or skin conditions)
  • Prevent ear infections
  • Avoid anal gland impaction and discomfort

Frequently Asked Questions

Choosing the right groomer for your dog is an important decision. We understand you may have questions about our grooming services, booking appointments, and what to expect during your dog’s visit. Below are answers to the most common grooming questions we receive from pet owners in the St. Louis area. If you don’t see your question answered here, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We’re happy to help!

How long does an appointment usually take?2026-01-28T11:22:52-06:00

Grooming time varies based on your dog’s size, coat type, and services requested. A basic bath may take 1-2 hours, while full grooming services with haircuts can take 2-4 hours. Dogs with matted fur, thick double coats, or those needing extra attention will require additional time. You can always reach out to our team for estimated grooming times.

How often should I bring my dog in for grooming?2026-01-28T11:33:14-06:00

Grooming frequency depends on your dog’s breed, coat type, and lifestyle. Dogs with continuously growing hair (like Poodles, Shih Tzus, or Doodles) typically need grooming every 4-8 weeks. Short-haired breeds may only need baths every 8-12 weeks. Dogs that swim frequently, play outdoors often, or have skin conditions may benefit from more frequent grooming. Our groomers can recommend a schedule tailored to your dog’s specific needs.

Can I combine dog grooming with other services?2026-01-28T11:26:36-06:00

Yes! All of our grooming services are conveniently available as an addition to a daycare visit or overnight boarding stay. You can also schedule grooming services a la carte if your dog isn’t using our other services.

What if my dog gets anxious during grooming?2026-01-28T11:28:38-06:00

Our groomers are experienced in working with anxious dogs and use calming techniques, positive reinforcement, and patience to help them feel more comfortable. We’ll take breaks as needed and work at your dog’s pace. Always let us know about any behavioral concerns when you book so we can discuss accommodations with you.

How is grooming pricing determined?2026-03-02T15:45:19-06:00

Grooming prices are based on your dog’s size, breed, coat condition, and temperament. Final pricing is confirmed after our groomers assess your dog’s specific needs at the time of the appointment. Additional fees may apply for de-matting, extra brushing, or handling accommodations for anxious dogs. Our team will always discuss any additional charges with you before beginning.
