Dog & Cat Grooming

About Our Pet Grooming Services

We know that it can be challenging to find a groomer who will be gentle, take good care of your pet, and give your pet the “perfect” look.

We take great pride in providing the highest quality services to every pet that comes to us for a grooming appointment.

If you have a young puppy or kitten, let’s get acquainted early to help ensure that your pet will be comfortable with grooming throughout his or her life!

Benefits of Pet Grooming

There are many reasons to bring your pet in for a professional dog or cat grooming.

We’ve listed a few of the most important benefits below:

• Maintains healthy skin and coat
• Prevents ingrown nails
• Treatment for hotspots and skin lesions
• De-matting and de-shedding
• Flea and tick checks and treatment
• Medicated shampoos for dry skin and allergies
• Keeps your pet cooler in the summer
• They will look and smell great!

In addition to these benefits, pet grooming can also be relaxing for animals. Taking your pet to the groomer can help your pet feel great — like he or she just came back from the spa.

What to Expect

Different pets have different needs, with some pets requiring a lot more trimming and brushing than others. We'll let you know if your pet has any special bathing needs at the start of the appointment.

• RPRS Shed-Less® Program

Reisterstown Pet Resort & Spa's Shed-Less® Program is a special and proven technique that on average removes 60% to 80% of your pet’s dead hair from their body and your furniture. Shedding takes place as your pet’s body goes through natural cycles to replenish itself. This includes hair!

The Shed-Less® treatment is designed to remove all of the dead hair at once so that you never have to worry about the constant frustration of battling with those endless waves of fur. Using special tools to part the pet’s hair, our professional groomers then use special accessories, massaging techniques, and shampoos to loosen and free the dead hair.

A specially-designed hair dryer is then used to fluff the coat and get the first layer of dead hair off. Brushing, Combing, and Carding your pet’s hair with a special accessory finishes up the treatment. The result? A lighter, cooler, and happier pet who will stop waging war on your unsuspecting furniture, carpet, and clothes.

How Often Should My Pet Be Groomed?

Most pets should be professionally groomed at least once annually and certain dog breeds need to be groomed far more often.

The length of time between appointments depends on:

• Type or breed of pet
• How fast your pet's coat grows
• Pet’s susceptibility to matting
• Time of year

How Can I Maintain My Pet’s Coat at Home?

Brush your pet's coat on a regular basis, but avoid excessive bathing. Bathing your pet too often can cause dry and flaky skin.

We welcome your questions about our grooming procedures and policies and are eager to discuss how we can make your pet’s next grooming appointment as happy and stress-free as possible.
