I hope everyone had a great holiday and start to the new year!
I will be back to grooming a little later this month. I’ve missed all my fur clients so much and am happy that I will be seeing them soon!
Starting next week, I’ll be getting ahold of everyone to get your pets scheduled. However, I do have some updates to my services and there are some pets that I’m still not able to groom at this time (Please read about these updates below). If your pet is in dire need of being groomed right now, please make other arrangements until you hear from me. As I’m sure everyone understands, I’m not able to groom every pet on day one of being back. Please wait for me to get ahold of you. I know that everyone is anxious to get back on a regular grooming schedule. However, it will take me time to get to everyone and I appreciate your patience.
The first update is, I’m not able to groom large dogs at this time. If your dog is over 35 lbs, you may not hear from me yet. As I work my strength and stamina back up this may change, and I’ll update those of you with larger dogs as I’m able to groom them comfortably and safely. Please make other grooming arrangements in the meantime.
I will no longer be grooming any pets that are a bite risk. Due to a higher possibility of infection from cut/bites, I’m no longer able to chance getting bit. Fortunately, this doesn’t affect very many of you as I only groom a few pets that have shown this behavior. I’ll contact those of you with bite risk pets to give you a list of other groomers in the area if you need.
I’m also going to start charging a cleaning fee for those pets continuously coming to me with fleas. When I groom a pet with fleas, I must do additional cleaning to treat/kill the fleas left behind. This takes additional time and products. However, since sometimes fleas happen unexpectantly, the first time your pet comes to me with fleas, there won’t be a charge. I’ll inform you of the fleas and recommend treatments. The second time your pet has fleas you will be charged an additional $25 cleaning fee on top of your pet’s regular grooming charge. If your pet continuously comes to me with fleas, you’ll be turned away until the flea problem is resolved. Again, thankfully this doesn’t affect most of you, but there are a few repeat offenders.
Lastly, I have adjusted my pricing schedule. To see my new pricing, please view my website at: https://www.fortheloveofpawsgrooming.com/services-pricing . This will show you my most current pricing information for your pet.
All that being said, I’m very excited to be back to grooming. I’m so grateful for all the wonderful people who sent me encouragement, kind words, cards, gifts, thoughts and prayers. I feel very blessed!! Thank you all!
