Cleo is... not a fan of being handled. The grooming team used the Fear Free approach and she came out looking beautiful without any of the usual drama. They even trimmed her nails without a single hiss. Miracle workers.
Grooming
Professional pet grooming in a veterinary setting — because your pet's skin and coat health matters.
Overview
About Grooming
Grooming isn't just about looking good — it's an essential part of your pet's health. Regular grooming helps prevent skin infections, matting, nail overgrowth, and ear problems.
Our grooming services are performed in a veterinary setting, which means if our groomers notice any health concerns — lumps, skin infections, ear issues — we can address them immediately with our medical team. It's grooming with a health-first approach.
