Mobile Pet Grooming Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers from Lisa
Do you groom all breeds and sizes?
Yes! Lisa has experience with dogs of all breeds and sizes, from small toy breeds to large double-coated dogs. Every dog gets the same patient, personalized attention regardless of size or coat type.
How does mobile grooming work exactly?
Lisa pulls up to your home in a fully equipped grooming van. Everything needed for a complete groom is right onboard, including water, power, and all professional tools. You never have to leave the house.
Is mobile grooming less stressful for my dog?
For most dogs, yes. There are no other animals around, no kennels, and no long waits in an unfamiliar place. Your dog gets one-on-one attention from start to finish in a calm, quiet setting.
How long does a typical grooming appointment take?
It depends on the size of your dog and the services requested, but most appointments run between 1 and 2 hours. Lisa will give you a better estimate when you book.
Do I need to be home during the appointment?
You don't need to be present the entire time, but you do need to be reachable by phone. Lisa may need to check in with you during the groom, especially for first-time visits.
How often should I schedule grooming for my dog?
Most dogs do well with a grooming appointment every 4 to 6 weeks. Some breeds with faster-growing coats may need more frequent visits. Lisa can recommend a schedule that works best for your specific dog.
What should I do to prepare my dog before the appointment?
Not much is needed on your end! Just make sure your dog has had a chance to go to the bathroom before Lisa arrives, and let her know about any sensitivities, skin conditions, or areas your dog is touchy about.
Do you groom cats too?
Yes. Lisa grooms cats as well as dogs, one-on-one in her mobile salon with no barking dogs or kennels around. See our Cat Grooming page for details.
