By keeping up with your pet’s grooming, you are safeguarding the health and happiness of your pet. Falling behind can result in matted fur, bugs, and skin irritations that will result in your pet becoming stressed out and possibly ill. When playing with your pet, pay attention to his fur, teeth, ears and nails to determine if it’s time to make an appointment with a groomer. Grooming helps to maintain your pet's health, allow for early detection of problems, and even improve your pet's mood. Regular grooming can improve you pet’s confidence and demeanor, resulting in a clean, pretty pet that is used to being around strangers.

The amount of time between grooming appointments depends on the type of breed along with size and lifestyle, but we recommend all dogs be groomed every 4-6 weeks or 4-8 weeks (depending on breed) at the minimum.

We use very mild, hypoallergenic and medicated shampoos and conditioners that are safe to be used once a week. In fact, most veterinarians recommend dogs be washed at least once a week with a medicated shampoo if they have skin or coat problems.

Absolutely! We'll be happy to use any client supplied shampoo or products, but Mama's Mobile Grooming does not accept responsibility when using a client supplied product vs. professional supplies provided by Mama's Mobile Grooming.

Grooming appointments typically last anywhere from 45 minutes to two hours, based on the size of the pet, coat condition, hair length, etc. (very hairy and/or large dogs understandably take longer).
