What should I do before my pet's grooming appointment?
Take your dog for a walk beforehand so they arrive calm. Let the groomer know about any skin issues, behavioral concerns, or areas your pet is sensitive about. Bring any vaccination records if it is your first visit — salons commonly require proof of rabies vaccination.
Is pet grooming stressful for dogs?
Some dogs find grooming stressful, especially if they were not introduced to it as puppies. A good groomer will work at your dog's pace and use calming techniques. If your dog is very anxious, ask about groomers who specialize in nervous pets or consider mobile grooming at home.
How do I choose a good pet groomer?
Look for experience with your pet's breed, positive reviews mentioning how the groomer handles pets, a clean facility, and willingness to discuss your pet's needs. Ask whether they use cage-free drying or kennel drying. A good groomer will flag health concerns they notice during the session.
Do I need to tip my pet groomer?
Tipping is appreciated but not required. If you are happy with the service, 15 to 20 percent is a common range in the GTA. If the groomer is the salon owner, tipping is optional.
