Grooming Services

Does your pet stress when they visit the groomer? Does your pet feel safer and happier at home? Or are they getting older and unable to groom themselves? 

I will meet you and your pet at your house for the following grooming services. All of these services can be provided on a regular basis as needed.

Nail clipping 
Price: from $45

Is your pet jumping up and scratching your legs (or the furniture)? Do their nails tap the floor when they walk?

I can trim your pets’ nails in the comfort of their own home.

Hygiene & mat/knot clip 
Price: from $80

Some breeds may need a regular tidy up hygiene and mat/knot clip, rather than a full groom.  

I can clip mats/knots, bottoms, stomachs and genital areas.

Ear Cleaning/Medicating 
Price: from $45
 

Does your pet need regular ear cleaning or medicating? Not sure how to apply the medicated ointment? Regular cleaning may prevent ear infections, especially for dogs with floppy ears.

I will clean your pets’ ears and/or apply medication.

In-home dog wash
Price: from $60

I can provide an in-home dog wash (shampoo, condition and brush) for dogs under 12kg, leaving them smelling and looking wonderful.

I provide bath products and dry your dog with microfibre towels. This will be done in your laundry sink or bath.

Lion Clips
Price: from $110

Treat your pet to Lion Clip where the fur is clipped short all over the body and legs, except the paws, mane and part of the tail. Your pet will benefit from a clip if it: Regularly develops matting on its coat (which causes irritation and can lead to dermatitis).

Dental Health Services

Smelly breath? Just like humans, toothbrushing is the best way to keep your pet’s teeth clean and healthy. 

It is recommended that pets have their teeth checked at least every 6 months to identify any issues and prevent further dental disease. 80% of dogs and cats over 3 years have some form of dental disease.

I have done countless dental consultations and know what to look for when it comes to dental health and disease. I know some pets would prefer to have their teeth checked at home, rather than in the clinic.

I will meet you and your pet at your house for the following dental health services.
