We’re Not in Newbury Park Yet: But We’re Coming!

Ask what the groom includes, how long your pet will be there, how the groomer handles anxious animals, and how tools and tables are cleaned. Tell them your pet's coat type and any health or behaviour concerns.

Some groomers ask for them and some do not. Ask what they require. Rules differ by business.

Tell the groomer before the visit. Ask what they can do, whether there is a different approach, and whether they will stop if your pet is distressed.

Some groomers offer a mobile service and some work from a shop. Ask what is offered, what space and water they need, and how booking works.

Rules differ by state and city, and a business may need a local permit. Ask whether any licence or permit applies in your state and city. Pros Around does not check insurance.

The price depends on the size and difficulty of the job. Some pros publish a starting price on their listing. Ask two or three for a written quote that says what is included, and compare the scope as well as the price.

Only customers who contacted a pro through Pros Around can review them, using a link that works once. Pros can reply but cannot delete a review, and reviews are never sold. An admin hides a review only if it breaks our rules, and the reason is recorded.

By the plan a pro has chosen, then a Featured badge, then review quality. A higher plan can place a pro higher; between pros on the same plan, reviews decide. Anything paid for is labelled.
