We Provide Grooming Packages

Luxury Grooming Packing

This package is perfect for pets who suffer from itchy, dry, flaky skin:

  • First, we massage your pet with Soothing Specialty Shampoo especially formulate for dry, itchy skin.
  • Then your pet's coat is drenched in remoisturizing conditioner and wrapped in a warm towel to help the moisturizers penetrate and replenish the coat's natural beauty and manageability.
  • We brush your pet's teeth with specially formulated pet toothpaste to improve the breath and increase circulation in the gums.
  • The coat is then thoroughly rinsed with warm water and finished with an aromatherapy finishing rinse in your choice of lavender, sweet orange, rose or tea tree oil.
  • Your pet is then fluff dried with a massaging flow of warm air, and thoroughly brushed to remove dead hair and tangles.
  • Our groomer will then complete a custom designed cut for your special friend, suited to the breed, coat and length which works best for your lifestyle.
  • The package will finish with bows or a bandanna and a treat.

Pampered Puppy Package

This package is only offered to puppies aged 6-20 weeks. It is just right for the first few grooms and includes lots of love, individual attention, and training.

You can expect the following when you schedule this package:

  • Your pet will be bathed with gentle, tearless shampoo specially formulated for your pets and their sensitive skin.
  • A warm water rinse will remove shampoo and dead skin and debris from the coat.
  • Your pet's coat will be fluff dried with a massaging flow of high-velocity air and thoroughly brushed to remove dead hair and small tangles.
  • Our groomer will trim the hair from around the eyes, between the pads of the feet, and around the potty areas. The nails will be trimmed and the ears will be cleaned (hair plucked, if needed). The anal glands will also be expressed if necessary. The coat will be neatened and lightly trimmed to prepare your pet for the full grooming sessions that will become a natural part of their life.
  • The package will finish with bows, or a bandanna and baby powdered scented cologne and a treat.
