Denver’s first low-waste, holistic dog groomer offers haircuts, bath and brush services, nail trims, and dental services. For dogs who love a little extra TLC, they even offer reiki, a Japanese form of energy healing that's great for older pups and muscle rehab.
Here's what one happy customer had to say:
Thank GOODNESS I found this [Doggy Downtime]. My dog looks and smells AMAZING! I have never pet her before without dog hair flying everywhere, even after brushing her. Now I pet her and...NOTHING! Already made my next appointment and will be returning monthly.
Pet insurance for skin conditions
Regular grooming sessions aren’t just about keeping your pup looking fabulous—they can also reveal hidden health issues like skin infections or allergies. That's where pet insurance comes in handy!
Imagine your groomer finds a suspicious rash or an inflamed area during a grooming session. With pet insurance, you can get these issues checked out by a vet and get reimbursed for unexpected, much-needed treatments.

[Lily's Bath and Biscuits] is amazing. Truly more than I could ever imagined in a dog bath experience. Our dog is the cleanest she has ever been in years and we are all over her with snuggles. Such an incredible staff. We will be here for all future doggy baths!

Luke & Company Fine Pet Supply & Outfitter
Address: 530 Broadway, Denver, CO 80203

It’s the law of threes at Luke’s—three groomers, three self-service tubs, and three levels of service for each. The groomers work hard to provide your dog with some TLC in a stress-free environment, or you can take on the job yourself.
Great place for a self-service dog wash. They have private rooms for your pup to have a peaceful bath without distractions, and they provide everything you need.
Salon-style services range from a “Bath and Brush” to a full groom with breed-specific trims. Self-service packages start at $5 for the “Bring Your Own Supplies” option ($2 extra for the dryer) and go up to $15 for the use of all the tools. Either way, your dog will be ready to show up and show out.
Managing dog allergies
Grooming can sometimes reveal or trigger allergies or reactions to grooming products. That’s where pet insurance comes in handy! It's designed to help reimburse you for the costs of vet visits and treatments.
This can be a game-changer, especially for breeds prone to allergies.
Praise the Paw Dog Grooming
Address: 433 E 17th Ave, Denver, CO 80203

Jennifer Foreman’s boutique offers a full groom with all the trimmings, plus additional glow-up services like “Doggie Dye,” nail trims, anal gland expression, and teeth brushing. Each dog is scheduled individually to ensure a relaxed, stress-free visit.
This is our pup Barry’s favorite place to get pampered. We only trust [Praise The Paw] to take care of his grooming needs. He always comes out looking sharp and smelling so so fresh. Highly recommend.
Pet insurance for injuries or infections
Sometimes, grooming can lead to unexpected injuries or infections. That’s where pet insurance comes to the rescue! Imagine your pup getting a minor cut or developing an infection after a grooming session. With pet insurance, you can get reimbursed for the cost of treatments.

The groomers at Dog Savvy are all about staying on top of "pup culture," ensuring your dog’s style is always in vogue. They offer three tiers of salon service, plus a special tier just for Poodles and Doodle mixes.
While your pup is getting pampered, you can browse their shop for dog treats and even snag a little something for yourself—Dog Savvy sells greeting cards, stickers, and apparel for humans too.
When I had my senior dog Ruthie, I would take her [to Dog Savvy]. The staff is always so kind and the groomers did such a great job. Everything from her coat to her toe nails looked perfect when I picked her up.
Pet insurance for chronic conditions
Grooming isn't just about keeping your pup looking good; it’s also crucial for managing chronic conditions that need regular attention.
If your dog has a chronic condition like skin allergies or recurring infections, pet insurance can help cover the costs of those ongoing treatments and unexpected vet visits.
It’s a great way to handle unforeseen grooming-related health expenses, ensuring your pup stays happy and healthy without putting a strain on your wallet.
Regular grooming is more than just keeping your pup looking fabulous—it's essential for their overall health. From preventing skin conditions and detecting early signs of health issues to managing chronic conditions, regular grooming plays a vital role in your dog's well-being.
Dog insurance can help. It's designed to reimburse you for the cost of unexpected injuries, infections, and chronic conditions that can emerge during grooming.
For a well-rounded approach to your pup’s health, consider investing in professional grooming services and pet insurance. And while you're at it, look into our non-insurance Wellness Plan. It can help you pay for preventive care!
