Good to know
VIP Grooming tailors each groom to the dog, choosing the shampoos, conditioners and drying technique that suit the coat. Every haircut starts with the VIP bath: a three-stage wash, facial and ear cleaning, blow-dry, brush-out and nail trim.
Haircuts are clippered to your chosen length and hand-scissored on the ears, face, tail and feet; outline trims suit breeds like Golden Retrievers and Setters. Difficult dogs are welcome and paired with a groomer suited to them.
Walk-ins are not taken. Please drop off close to your appointment time and pick up promptly; it is a small salon.
