Likely a good fit
When mobile grooming works well
Your address is on the route
The regular route covers Moon Valley, Deer Valley Village, North Mountain Village, Lookout Mountain, and Arrowhead Ranch.
Your Dog Can Be Groomed Safely
Bathing, drying, brushing, nail work, safe table handling, and some standing are part of normal grooming.
The van can park safely
My van is 9 feet 7 inches tall. Please leave a safe curbside parking space and tell me about low branches or anything that could block access.
Add Your Dog Before Booking
Add each dog before booking and make sure the saved information is current.
You want a one-on-one appointment
Owners may see the salon before handoff but do not remain inside while I groom.
You can maintain a regular schedule
Many dogs do well every four to six weeks, though the best interval depends on the coat and home maintenance.
A different setting may be safer
When mobile grooming is not the right match
Veterinary or specialized handling needs
I do not provide veterinary sedation, veterinary restraint, diagnosis, or medical treatment. Pain, open sores, suspected infection, recent surgery, or an injury may need veterinary care first.
Unsafe or overwhelming stress
If a dog becomes overly stressed or unsafe to handle, I may modify or stop the groom instead of forcing completion.
Breed, size, or coat limitations
I do not accept Akitas or Chow Chows. Very large dogs, exceptionally dense coats, or needs beyond what the mobile salon can safely manage may require another setting.
If Your Dog Is Matted
I do not perform prolonged, painful de-matting to preserve length. A clipper must pass beneath tight matting, so the finished coat will be shorter than the mats.
Medication prescribed for grooming
If your veterinarian has prescribed calming medication specifically for grooming, please tell me before the appointment so I can plan safely.
Current rabies documentation
Proof of current rabies vaccination is required before grooming, except for puppies 8–16 weeks old as described on the New Clients page. Please wait 48 hours after any vaccination.
