When it’s time for your dog to get glam, you can either book a visit to the groomer or have professional grooming services come to you. From a basic shampoo and cut to a glamorous groom inspired by the Manic Panic color spectrum, these groomers give the best cuts in town.

All the experienced groomers at this Brewerytown salon are pet owners as well as clients, so you can book your dog’s day at the spa with confidence.

Fairy Tales Mobile Grooming

If a grooming session inside a salon stresses out your dog, try curbside pickup from Amanda Bowman instead. The National Dog Groomer’s Association of America member brings the full spa experience — with your dog as her only client — to your front door. And scheduling is a breeze, because after your dog’s first appointment you don’t even need to be home for future pickups and grooming sessions. The van is climate controlled, with its own power and water, so no hookups at your home are required.

When owner Philip Stevenson took over Spot’s Spot Pet Grooming in 2011, he styled the salon to resemble a living room to make your dog’s comfort his first priority.

Stylish Pooch owner Rahanna Gray, seen on season five of Netflix’s “Queer Eye,” specializes in adding swag to your dog’s wag.

When your dog needs a day at the “spaw,” pet insurance can ensure a peaceful retreat. Consider protecting your dog with a ManyPets health insurance plan to help you cover veterinary care in case your dog gets more than a bad ’do at the groomer.
