Why Are Grooming Prices Increasing in 2025?

At Zen Dog Grooming, we always strive to provide the best care for your pets at fair prices. However, due to rising business costs, we must adjust our pricing to continue delivering high-quality services. We want to be transparent with you on why we had to increase our cost.

Here’s a breakdown of the increased costs affecting our business:

Business Expenses Rising in 2025:

📌 Credit Fees – Increased by 2.6% + 0.15 cents per transaction
📌 Payroll Costs – Increased by $10 per month
📌 Rent – Increased by $200 per month
📌 Workers' Comp. Insurance – Increased by $80 per month
📌 Shampoo & Supplies – Increased by $6 per bottle
📌Blades & Supplies - Increased by $5 - $10 a blade
📌 Business Insurance – Increased by $40 per month
📌 Business License - Increased by $15 for the year
📌Phone Line - Increased by $5 a month

How This Affects Pricing

To maintain the same quality of care, cover rising expenses, and ensure we continue operating smoothly, grooming prices will increase slightly.

📍 Example:

Small dogs will see an increase of approximately $5, medium dogs $5–$10, and large dogs $10–$15. The final price will vary based on each dog's unique needs, coat condition, and the time required for their grooming and care.

We appreciate your continued support and understanding. Our goal is to provide the best care for your pups while maintaining a fair and sustainable business.

💙 Thank you for trusting Zen Dog Grooming!

I’m also incredibly thankful for my incredible Zen gang! Each and every one of you makes this journey so rewarding.

Important Policy Update for 2025

Starting in 2025, we will no longer be brushing out matted coats on pups that come into our care. Brushing matted coats is not only painful and stressful for your furry friends, but it also damages their hair. The brushed-out hair is often already dead and broken, which compromises the overall health of the coat.

To prevent matting and ensure your pup’s coat remains healthy and comfortable, we recommend the following:

● Brush your dog’s coat daily using the appropriate tools for their coat type.

● Keep your pup’s hair at a manageable length.

● Maintain a grooming schedule every 3 to 6 weeks, depending on your dog's coat type and length.

Our goal is to prioritize the health and well-being of your beloved pets, and we appreciate your understanding and cooperation in this matter. If you have any questions or need guidance on coat maintenance, please don’t hesitate to reach out!

Thank you for trusting us with your furry family members.
