What You Need to Know
Because Creative Grooms require precision, planning, and an expert touch, we begin with a mandatory consultation. Clients will complete the consultation form at the bottom of this page.
Your groomer will review all details and may create a customized game plan, sketches, or design notes. They will then schedule a call with you to finalize the concept and help you understand the process, timeline, and care instructions. Once approved, we will arrange the ideal date and time for your pup’s artistic transformation.
Creative Grooming sessions are highly detailed and can be time intensive. Pricing begins with a minimum 2-hour session at $250, with each additional hour at $150.
Please Note: For curly-coated, double-coated, or wire-haired dogs, a full groom is required the day before with the same groomer. This reduces standing time and sensory fatigue, helping create a calmer, more comfortable experience during the creative session. Short-haired dogs may receive their bath and color on the same day without a pre-groom appointment.
