Pet care experience

Price List: Your dog might've been salty elsewhere, but we can always handle their paws! ALL prices ARE subject to change once evaluating the pet's hair condition.

Teeth brushing: Can help your dog's bad breath & over time can make your dog's smile shine. Deep Conditioning: Serves a very relaxing time in the tub with an all over deep massage to work the conditioner in your dogs coat & can help dematt small matts. Nail Grinding: Our # 1 seller that helps file your dog’s nails smoother than nail clipping & with a rounded tip to help safely get closer to your dogs quick & prevent that rough scratching. Dematting: Depending on the severity of matting will depend on price. To help prevent your dog from matting, here are a few tips. When you are brushing your dog, use a comb to start at the base of their hair to the skin. Starting at the base of the hairline will help prevent matting. Most people don't realize they are only brushing the top layer of their dog's coat while the undercoat is matting up. Dog Behavior: Sometimes animals tend to get overwhelmed on the grooming table. Stress in some pets can lead to dog aggression, that being said, there are times where we might have to possibly end the grooming session due to dog behavior. IF this happens, We will suggest going to your local vet to get a sedative to help calm them throughout the process. That way the pet or I won't get possibly hurt/injured. Our goal is for everyone to be safe & happy! I will ask for half of the price of the grooming session or what has been done. The convenience fee depends on mileage, therefore it can range anywhere from $5-$40 dollars. County location prices can vary per customer $ depending on my current location of the day. Locations: Effingham County: $5-$20 Chatham County: $15-$30 Bulloch County: $20-$40 Add Ons: Nail Grinding: $15 Teeth Brushing & Breath Refreshing: $10 Blueberry Facial: $5 Deep Conditioning: $5 Nail Polish: $15 Gland Expression: $10 Flea & Tick Treatment: $15 Paw Pad Clean Out: $10 Deshedding: $15-30 **Desheds are great For Double Coated Pets! The process is a 2 tier process, the first step is in the bath & the second step is when they are fully dry** We are mobile, we bring all our supplies needed... All we need from YOU is a nice quiet room/bathroom to set up our spa date right in the comfort of their home! (Mobile Grooming Van is in the works but you gotta start somewhere!)

Took good care of our pup. She was even given A bath and nail trim, which was great and unexpected.

Information Alena F. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences, just ask that I know anything that will be needed for precautions. Might would do a meet and greet just so they can meet me know who I am you show me the ropes of what you guys do at home try to bond with them.

A typical day

Long walks, play ball in the back yard, going for rides in the car and a fun filled day at the park. I love photography and love getting to see them in their natural habitat being themselves and those candid moments.

I am a high energetic indipendent mom to not only a child but to my own furbabies so I function off of a calendar and proper time management. Like all humans we do make mistakes and are not robots. Animals are a passion, I love being able to connect with them on so much more than just a groomer level. They should not fear their groomers. Obviously then have to warm up to you which takes time but that's where I have that patience for them that not a lot of people do have.
