Grooming FAQs
What is the difference between Full Spa and Mini Spa grooming?
Both include a bath, blow-dry, brush out, nail trim, and ear cleaning. Full Spa grooming adds a haircut, either scissoring or shaving, while Mini Spa is the bath and maintenance package without a haircut.
Do you groom cats as well as dogs?
Yes. Our licensed groomer works with both cats and dogs, and our calm, patient approach helps pets of every temperament feel at ease.
What vaccines does my pet need before grooming?
Dogs need Distemper, Lepto, Rabies, and Kennel Cough (every 6 months), plus a fecal parasite screening every 6 months. Cats need FVRCP and Rabies, plus a fecal parasite screening every 6 months. We also recommend heartworm testing for dogs, FeLV/FIV testing for cats, and flea and tick prevention.
What if my pet’s vaccination records are not on file with you?
Bring a copy at drop-off or have your veterinarian email it to petupdates@dorrvetclinic.com. If you do not have records, we can administer the needed vaccinations during the grooming appointment for an additional fee.
What is the Special Puppy Intro Program?
It is a series of 3 grooming visits booked 4 weeks apart. Your puppy is introduced to bathing, handling, scissoring, drying, nail trims, and ear cleaning in a gentle, positive way.
How far in advance should I book a grooming appointment?
As early as you can. Our groomer fills up quickly, especially around the holidays, so more notice gives us the best chance of reserving your preferred day.
Can I walk in for a same-day groom, and what are drop-off and pick-up times?
Walk-ins are not accepted for same-day grooming, so please reserve ahead. Drop-off is available as early as 7am Monday through Friday, and pets should be picked up 30 minutes before closing. If you need your pet back quickly, tell us when you book.
