Services

We tailor our service to your pet during each and every visit. We carefully select high quality products for luxurious results based on your pet’s coat type, condition, and/or your preference.

Services are based on well behaved dogs groomed on a regular schedule. Additional charges may be applied for matting, coat type and condition, and temperament.

Our Process

Our process begins with assessing your dog’s coat, removing unwanted hair, and bathing thereafter. Following bathing, we blow dry, brush out, and return to the grooming table for nails, ears, and other detailing.

Additionally, we will notify you with ample time so that you may pick up your dog on time, or provide updates as to whether your dog may be ready slightly under or over the waiting time.

For example: If your appointment is at 10:00 a.m., and your selected service takes an hour, we would text or call you at 9:45 notifying you about your dog’s completion.

Our unique type of service caters to those who prefer swift and focused dog grooming, reliable in-house facilitation, and attention to detail that has always set us apart.

Our Offerings

Bath Package

Our base offering:

2 shampoo treatments

Our degreasing shampoo is used to take grime, dirt, and debris from your dog’s skin and coat to allow the second shampoo to properly care for dog’s current coat condition. There are no extra fees for any of our shampoos which include medicated, whitening, hypoallergenic, keratin-infused, oatmeal, and flea.

Conditioner

We use either rinse off or leave in conditioner to restore the coat’s luster and help maintain moisture in Houston’s ever-changing climate.

Full body blow dry

We use high velocity, no heat blow dryers to completely dry your dog from head to tail. For dogs who are sensitive, we use a Happy Hoodie or cotton balls inside the ears to muffle the loud sound.

Brushout

We thoroughly brush your dog using coat specific tools.

Nail trim and file

We trim nails down as close as possible and round off the edges to avoid unpleasant scratches to humans, furniture or wood floors.

External anal gland expression

For small to medium dogs and any dog that has issues with expressing themselves

Ear cleaning and plucking

We clear dirt and excessive wax buildup. For dogs with hair inside of ears, we pluck it gently to help with air flow and help avoid moisture buildup that can cause ear infections.
