Q: What is mobile dog grooming?

A: Mobile pet grooming is a luxury service bringing the salon to your door. Your pet will have one-on-one attention from an experienced groomer during the entirety of their appointment. This experience is entirely cage-free and all pets are hand dried (no kennel dryers). I only need a place to park my truck and mobile grooming trailer.

Q: Do you have weight restrictions?

A: I have a ~100lb weight restriction. I am willing to work with pups who slightly exceed this restriction as long as they are used to the grooming process and I can accommodate them in the mobile unit. Existing clientele does not have to worry about this new restriction.

Q: What locations do you service?

A: I provide services for Fort Wayne, Indiana and surrounding areas. I have clients as far as Decatur to Leo. I keep my service radius to 20 miles around the 46804 zip code. If you are outside of my service area, please feel free to reach out as I may be able to make the trip for an additional service charge.

Q: How do I get a price estimate?

A: I have a price sheet listed under the “pricing” tab. If you want a more accurate estimate, you can text me a photo of your pet along with their weight. I spent a lot of time putting together specific estimate sheets to be transparent about my pricing, but I know not every pet is the same. If you ever have any questions please feel free to reach out. You can send me photos of your pet at 260-418-3859.

Q: What do I need to do to prepare for my appointment?

A: Give your dog plenty of time to go outside and potty before I arrive. Accidents are more likely to happen during the grooming process, sometimes requiring another bath which puts us behind schedule.

Q: Do I need to be present for my appointment?

A: If you’re an established client, we can arrange a key lock service if you cannot be present. Otherwise, I request that you remain on your property until the appointment is complete to ensure that I make it to my next appointment on time.

Q: How long does the process usually take?

A: Typically pet grooming servicing take between 1-2.5 hours. Giant breeds may take longer depending on their coat condition. The first appointment will usually take the longest as I am first getting to know your pet and establishing a trusting relationship.

Q: Do you need access to my water and electricity?

A: No, the mobile grooming unit is entirely self-sufficient with its own water tanks and generator. In the event that the generator malfunctions, I may request access to electricity.

Q: Can I use my own shampoo?

A: I use high-quality products and also offer specialty shampoos (anti-itch, fragrance-free, or hypoallergenic) for no additional charge. If you have a medicated shampoo you’d like me to use, I can definitely use that! I have flea shampoo on board, but require a +$50 fee for shampoo and a clean-up fee. Please keep your pet on a monthly preventative to keep fleas out of the mobile unit (oral tablets from your vet are my recommendation).

Q: What dogs would benefit from mobile grooming?

A: All dogs would benefit from one-on-one grooming! Specifically, this setting would be ideal for dogs with anxiety, special needs requiring more accommodating care, elderly pets, and so on! This is also a great option for owners who have limited time to make it to the salon or struggle to transport their pets.

Q: Why can't I be with my pet while it's being groomed?

A: For liability reasons, my insurance company will not allow anyone other than employees and pets in the grooming trailer. You are more than welcome to take a look before your appointment begins, but I am unable to have anyone step on board. Pets also tend to be more excitable and distracted when their owner is present, making the grooming process hazardous.
