A Pet Parent's Guide to Finding Pet Grooming Florida

By David Russell


It doesn't matter what kind of cat or dog you own. Any pet has specific grooming needs that owners need to help with. Some pets may only need regular baths and nail trims. Others have more complex needs. If your dog or cat has needs that you can't manage, a company offering pet grooming Florida may be just what you need to keep your fur baby looking and feeling their best. Here are some things to look for when you need to hire someone to care for your pet.

Many people groom pets but may not be a licensed groomer. It can be a good idea to look for someone who has completed courses or received certification to ensure that they know what they are doing. An inexperienced person may not know how to handle specific types of fur or they may injure your pet with clippers or scissors. You may also be unhappy with the way your dog or cat looks when you get them back.

You may be tempted to avoid going to the groomer but this is actually a mistake. Unless you are able to cut your fur baby's hair and nails yourself they will need to be cared for by someone else. Long nails can grow into a pet's feet and end up causing serious problems. You also need to make sure that your dog or cat's fur is not matted as it can make the skin sore.

It is much easier to find a groomer who will work with canines. Felines also need to have their fur cared for especially if the cat is older, overweight, or long haired. A professional who works with felines may be harder to find but it is worth the effort to find someone who will do so.

It can be a good idea to get the names of several grooming companies and then visit or speak to each one in order to find out more about them. Visiting the salon will let you see that it is clean and well-maintained. Obviously if you are visiting during working hours there will likely be some fur around but you want to make sure that things look clean and in good condition.

Some canines will need to be treated in specific ways. Some dogs need to have their hair plucked instead of shaved. Others will need to have their double coats taken into consideration and cannot simply be shave down to get rid of tangles or excess length. Ask how a salon will deal with these situations in order to make sure they know what they are doing.

You may also want to ask the groomer whether they have special shampoos or products on hand that can handle certain health issues. Dogs with allergies may need special shampoos such as those made with oatmeal. It can be a good idea to inquire whether you can bring your own shampoos as well in case a veterinarian prescribes one for your pup.

There are many ways you can find potential salons. You can look online for names or inquire at a local pet store or veterinary clinic to find out who they recommend. If your friends have dogs you may also want to ask them who they use or who they would avoid. Then, once you have a list of names you can begin talking with different professionals until you find one who will suit your needs the best.
