How much does it cost to groom my pet? Grooming rates vary depending on the breed of your pet and the type of services you choose. Please click on the location of your choice to obtain the telephone number of the center (Our Centers). Making a call directly to the center and discussing your pet's needs with a member of our professional grooming staff is the best way to obtain a quote.
What type of pets do you groom?
Best Friends grooms all breeds of dogs and cats. We have trained groomers who specialize in breed-specific cuts. Please call the center directly for rates and to schedule an appointment.
Do you tranquilize pets before you bathe or groom them?
Best Friend's professional stylists will not tranquilize a pet in order to groom it. Our stylists and groom techs are well trained to handle nervous pets, and treat every pet with tender loving care. If a pet is too agitated to be safely bathed or groomed, our staff will not attempt to force the service on the pet.
Does Best Friends employ heated drying cages in its grooming facilities?
No. In fact, we have a policy against the use of these devices in our
grooming salons.
Our Grooming Associates are trained to hand-dry pets after they have been
bathed. The process involves brushing out the coat to remove shedding hair,
while blowing it dry with equipment similar to, although larger than, the
hair dryer you might use at home. When the pet¹s coat is almost completely
dry, he is put into a holding compartment to rest. A high volume of
ambient, room-temperature air is circulated in that compartment. We NEVER
add heat to the circulating air.
In addition, we are continually evaluating and upgrading the equipment at
each of our facilities to ensure that all Best Friends salons are in
compliance with our strict corporate standards.
The health, safety and comfort of all of the pets in our care is of primary
importance to us. We have established our grooming policies, selected the
equipment we use, and trained our staff with those requirements in mind.
