Good to know
Bark + Boarding is a full-service pet care company founded in 1999 as Dog Paws n Cat Claws, with daycare, boarding, training and a pet supply store alongside its grooming salon.
Grooming runs seven days a week by appointment. Allow time for a short consultation with the groomer about the cut and any behavior or health concerns. Dogs already in for daycare or boarding can be groomed during their stay.
A $15 potty break fee applies if a dog is picked up more than two hours after the salon calls to say the groom is done.

Cat brushes
Long-haired cats mat first behind the ears, under the legs and on the belly. Short, frequent sessions tend to go better than one long one.

Cat nail clippers
A cat's claws retract, so you press the toe pad gently to bring the claw out before you trim the tip.
