Grooming by Barb offers full service dog grooming for ALL DOGS, big or small,  as well as CATS

~ Grooming services include a bath, blow drying, brushing, nail trim, ear cleaning, and anal gland expression. For short coated or non trimmed breeds, all dead hair and mats will be removed allowing the dog's skin to breath and remain healthy. For those dogs who require a hair cut, I will do my best to make your dog look as YOU would like them to look. Bring a photo!

~ All pets need periodic grooming. Grooming eliminates mats and dead hair and promotes healthy skin, feet, and ears.  Pets clean themselves ....some....but dead hair causes hair balls in cats, mats in both dogs and cats and long hair is often found all over the house from both. 

~ No heated cage dryers are used for the safety and comfort of your pet.

~ Special services include skunk baths, flea baths, tooth brushing. I will trim nails, faces, private areas, express glands and brush teeth on a drop in basis, call ahead to make sure I am here... not gone with the dogs!!!

~ Competitive Rates:  call for a quote, but be aware that matted, large, hairy, and special needs pets may require an extra fee.

~ Pick up and delivery available for just $15, or, drop off in the morning, let them spend the day, and pick them up after work. If you would like your dog back quickly, let me know and I can have them done in 2-3 hours.   I aim to suits your schedule best.

~ Puppies and kittens under six months are always half price. Pups and kittens need an introduction to grooming while they are young and I will take the time to see that they get a gentle bath, nail trim, coat trim if necessary, AND have a good time.

~ Old pets need more time and rest periods while the necessary cleaning and trimming takes place. They will be treated respectfully and have the time to take a nap or two during the process.  Please let me know when you make your appointment if you pet has special needs. 

~ Extra large dogs can easily be bathed on the matted floor at GROOMING BY BARB for greater security and safety.

~ Private exercise area set aside for grooming dogs. It is fully enclosed, covered, and safe!

~ Phone messages are appreciated! If I don't answer when you call it is likely I am grooming other dogs and can't leave them. Please leave a message and I will get back to you ASAP and no later than that evening when the dogs are done. My concern is for the safety and comfort of the dogs I am grooming at the moment.....thanks for understanding!

Barb Peterson, owner and groomer at GROOMING BY BARB, has bred, raised, and shown dogs for over 25 years. Our home is dog friendly and equipped to handle both small dogs and very large dogs.   We have also shared our lives with cats all along. If you have special concerns, feel free to call and discuss them with me. Our dogs are not out in the home when grooming dogs are present. I don't feel that grooming dogs need to compete with the owner's dogs on their property. Your dog will be treated with utmost care and respect and only positive reinforcement is used with all dogs in our house.
