Frequently asked questions

• Do I need to supply Scrubby Doo with electricity and water?

  NO! We are equipped with a 50 gallon tank of clean water that is filled daily, and a 50 gallon tank for the dirty bath water. Our ONAN generator provides all the electricity we need. Our van is equipped with a water heater to provide a nice, warm soothing bath for your doggie.

• How does this work?

  First you call 847-544-8120 to set up an appointment. Our groomer arrives at your home or business in the Grooming Salon on Wheels to groom you doggie in the driveway or along the curb. After meeting your doggie, either you or the groomer brings the pet to the Mobile Salon. We proceed with the groom and ring your bell when your friend is clean and groomed.

• How much time does this take?

  Generally a groom takes between 1 and 1 1/2 hrs. The time required can vary based on size, condition of coat, temperament of pet, age, special needs pets. We allow generous appointment times so we are not rushing out the door before your pet is complete.

• Is it necessary to book an appointment? If so, how far in advance?

  Just like any mobile service, we need to schedule an appointment in advance. If you want a certain day or time booking in advance increases your chance of getting the exact time and day you want. We have a very flexible schedule to work with your schedule.

• Can I inspect the van and stay with my pet during grooming?

  You are welcome to inspect the van from the doorway only. Our insurance carrier prohibits anyone from being inside the groom area other than the groomer. You may sit in the passenger seat of the van if you wish to remain with your pet during the groom time.

• Why is mobile grooming more expensive than a grooming salon or box pet store?

  We believe in Quality over Quantity. Mobile grooming is a specialized service that offers convenience: at your doorstep service and one on one attention to your doggie from start to finish.

• Why is a shave down sometimes more expensive than a regular haircut?

  In many cases your pet is matted, has an extremely thick coat, is excessively dirty or has other conditions which makes shaving more difficult than a normal cut. Great care and extra time is spent to shave the coat properly while trying to prevent discomfort for your pet.

• Do you groom cats?

  I'm sorry but we specialize in dogs only. We offer a link to a cat groomer under our "Links" header.

• Do you come out and trim nails only?

  Currently we only provide a full grooming service. If we are at your home and you have a second pet that requires a nail trim we are happy to provide the service.

• What forms of payment do you accept?

  We accept cash, checks, Master Card, Visa, Amex and Discover, Zelle
