Frequently asked questions

• How is Wag & Shine different?

  We started with a mission to make every grooming experience a happy one. We take great pride in unsurpassed attention to safety, quality, and comfort. Grooms occur in state-of-the-art grooming vans with amenities of an upscale salon. Stylists are highly skilled professionals and industry veterans.

• What is the background of your groomers?

  Our team is made up of highly experienced grooming stylists, each with at least 5-10 years of grooming experience. All stylists are vetted through a robust interview process and background check.

• Will you need to use my electricity or water?

  No, we do not need to use your electricity or water. Our vans are top of the line Mercedes Benz Sprinters specially designed for grooming. They have electricity and carry their own clean and heated water.

• How long will it take to groom my dog?

  We typically allow 1-2 hours per dog. The amount of time spent depends on the dog's size, breed, and temperament, as well as the regularity of grooming.

• How often should I get my dog groomed?

  This varies based on breed, lifestyle, grooming preferences, and coat type. For most dogs, we recommend grooming every 4-6 weeks. Dogs with medium or long hair will usually keep hair from getting overly matted.

• How old does a puppy need to be to have their first spa day?

  We recommend a bath after 10-12 weeks of age (and after appropriate shots have been administered). An early start on a grooming regimen will make it easiest for your furry family member to get used to the routine.

• Do you have a weight limit for dogs?

  We currently cater to dogs that are 55 pounds and under.

• My dog is matted – will you need to shave him or her?

  We will use a deep conditioner to detangle the hair and do our best to save as much of the coat as possible. Depending on severity, a complete shave may be required. This will be discussed and agreed upon before proceeding.

• Do you groom cats?

  We do not currently offer services for cats.

• What vaccinations do you require?

  We require all pets to be current on their rabies vaccinations and to wait at least 48 hours after any vaccinations before your appointment.

• Is grooming possible if my dog isn't feeling well?

  All pets must be in good health prior to receiving any grooming services.
