Good to know
Tail Swagger is a women-owned, locally run mobile grooming service that has worked the Portland metro since 2021, with two fully equipped grooming vans. Every appointment is one-on-one at your door, with no cage waiting and no other animals.
The vans cover Portland, Beaverton, Tigard, Lake Oswego and Hillsboro. Appointments in Forest Grove and some parts of Lake Oswego and beyond may carry a travel fee, and trips of more than 18 miles round trip add a mileage charge.
For select clients the groomers also work with bunnies and other small animals, depending on temperament.

Between grooms
The basics for the weeks in between. Picked by PawsRx, not recommended by Tail Swagger.
Slicker brushes
Curly and doodle coats mat close to the skin. Groomers follow a slicker with a metal comb to check they reached the bottom.

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.
