Mobile grooming is the easiest way to keep your dog clean, healthy, and happy — but a little prep at home goes a long way. Here is what we recommend before our van pulls up.
The night before
Take your dog on a slightly longer walk than usual. A tired dog is a calm dog, and calm dogs love grooming day.
One hour before
- Offer a light meal, not a heavy one
- Skip treats with food coloring that can stain fur
- Give your pup a quick potty break
When we arrive
Greet your groomer together. A short hello on the curb helps your dog associate the van with you and a positive routine. We will take it from there.
