Prices
Here's the whole math. No "call for a quote".
A groom costs what it costs because of three things: how big your dog is, what the coat does, and what shape it's in today. I'd rather show you the formula than haggle at the curb.

Breed
Picking a breed fills in size and coat. Change either if your dog didn't read the book.

Book this groomThe house rules
Confirm 48 hours ahead
You'll get one text two days before. Tap yes and you're set. No tap and the slot goes to whoever's waiting for that street — I can't drive across town to an empty driveway.
Rabies record for the first visit
Upload a photo of the record when you book. Vet email works too. After that I keep it on file until it expires.
A parking spot within 50 feet
Marge is a Sprinter van. I run water and power from her, so I need legal parking close to your door. A driveway is perfect; a saved curb spot works fine.
Walk your dog first
A short walk before I arrive means fewer potty breaks mid-groom and a calmer dog in the tub.
Matting is a comfort call
If the comb won't pass, I shave rather than pull. I'll show you before I start and the dematting fee is on the quote up front — never a surprise.
