Premier Pet Care Advice to use "at home"
Full Service Grooming
I no longer offer regular, full service mobile grooming!
Pet Groomer 911's original and primary purpose is to HELP those who are in challenging situations with their pets, to assist and educate, not "mobile grooming".
I do NOT have a mobile grooming vehicle.
I offer information, coaching, advice, and education.
Most people want "prices". Well so many factors go into deciding a price....
Posted are some general guides and some comparison prices.
Grooming is expensive!
These prices are very generalized! If your pet is suffering but you don't have the funds to cover even a "decent price", all you have to do is send me an email explaining the situation and I will do what I can to help!

$ Range
Bath & Tidy is a basic bath, brush, blowdry, nail trim, ear wipe.
This is a basic service, not necessarily for "special needs".
Special Needs would be ones in need of special shampoos for fleas, skin conditions, special conditioners, matted hair, elderly or otherwise handicapped, or pets with challenging temperments.
Factors that can affect PRICE:
Fleas
Skin Condition
Amount of hair
Shedding
Matting
Size
Physical Capacity​
anything that requires extra time, attention or extenuating effort above and beyond a "normal" average easy groom...
small dogs - $20
medium dogs - $25 - $45
large dogs - $30 - $60
EXTRA large dogs - $40-$100
​
Additional costs for products and time vary from $5 -$25
Haircuts are considered "full grooms".
These ALWAYS include bath, brush & blowdry!!!
The actual "haircut" for a full groom is a "style".
If this is not what you want, then you don't want a full groom haircut.
Haircuts should always include bath & blowdry because the hair is very different when it is clean and dry. What other groomers do is their business but Pet Groomer 911 teaches it this way.
The factors that affect price are basically the same as the ones for bath & tidys, though MATTED HAIR is most often the issue with hairy dogs or even cats.
Pricing Factors for Haircuts:
Fleas
Skin Condition
Amount of hair
Shedding
Matting
Size
Physical Capacity
​
anything that requires extra time, attention or extenuating effort above and beyond a "normal" average easy groom...
For haircuts, price is more about the hair than the size,
although size is a factor.
Prices can range from $40 to $140
​
Average Corporate Salon Prices for dogs in good condition:
(Please consider that MOBILE prices are usually double that of a salon)

Cocker Spaniel - $60
Golden Retriever - $70

​
Most pet dogs these days are mixes. Sometimes the mix is obvious,
somethimes not.
I do not care what breed you wish to call your dog!
I am NOT the AKC.
I educate.
If you've been told that your dog is a chihuahua/ labradore mix
and you choose to believe that...
OK !!!
But if that same dog has the coat of a chow,
you should be charged
for working with a chow!
Period.
