It depends on size and coat. Matting, flea treatment, or a nervous pet can add time and cost. We always tell you the price first. **Q:** How long does a grooming visit take? A: A basic bath and trim takes about an hour. Heavily matted coats or anxious pets may take longer. We never rush a pet just to save time. **Q:** Should I groom my pet at home or bring them in? A: Home brushing works fine between visits. But baths, nail trims, and de-matting are safer with a pro. We have the right tools and skill to keep your pet safe. **Q:** How often should my pet get groomed? A: Most dogs and cats do well every four to six weeks. DeSoto's heat and flea season may mean more baths in summer. Senior pets or pets with skin issues may need a different plan. **Q:** Can I wait if my pet's coat is a bit matted?

The longer you wait, the harder de-matting gets. **Q:** What signs show my pet needs grooming soon? A: Watch for matting, strong smell, lots of shedding, or scratching. Long nails that click on the floor are a sign too. See any of these? It's time to book a visit. **Q:** Do you groom pets with special needs or health issues?
