What is In Home Grooming?

In-Home grooming, or House Call Grooming, is a unique and personal grooming experience that offers your small dog (20 lbs. and under only) all the same pet grooming services found in pet salons, but in the comfort and safety of your home. It's the healthiest, safest, most convenient, and less stressful way of having your precious little one groomed.

Our company is based on the belief that all dogs need proper care and grooming, no matter their age or temperament. Our unique Housecall Grooming Service offers professional one-on-one grooming of your small dog (20 lbs. and under only) in the comfort of your home.

Advantages of In Home Grooming

In-Home grooming eliminates the need to leave your pet at a salon for part of the day, reducing the stress your pet may feel from being in an unfamiliar, noisy environment. Remaining in their own personal, comfort zone takes the stress and fear out of grooming.
