- Confirm vaccination requirements
- Get breed pricing and de-matting policy upfront

Frequently asked questions
How much is dog grooming in Randburg?
In Randburg, expect small-dog full grooms at the lower end of national pricing and large or matted-coat dogs at the top; mobile grooming vans typically charge a 20-40% convenience premium.
Can grooming help with shedding?
Yes — de-shedding treatments (bath, conditioner, high-velocity dry and undercoat raking) remove huge amounts of loose undercoat and are the right approach for double-coated breeds. Never shave a double coat for shedding.
Do groomers need a licence or qualification?
In most countries grooming is unlicensed — anyone can trade. Certificates (e.g., City & Guilds in the UK, NDGAA/IPG internationally) and salon reviews are the real quality signals, so ask what training your groomer has.
Is mobile dog grooming worth the extra cost?
For anxious dogs, seniors, or multi-dog homes, usually yes — one-on-one attention, no cage drying, no travel stress. The premium is typically 20-40% over salon prices.
What's included in a full groom vs a bath and tidy?
A bath-and-tidy covers wash, dry, brush-out, nails, ears and light trimming. A full groom adds a complete haircut or de-shed treatment. Teeth cleaning, flea treatments and de-matting are usually extras.
How much does dog grooming cost?
Pricing scales with size and coat: a small short-haired dog costs least, while large or double-coated breeds (doodles, huskies, spaniels) cost 2-3x more. A full groom includes bath, dry, haircut, nails, ears and sanitary trim.
What does a dog parlour cost in South Africa?
Full grooms typically run R250-500 for small dogs and R500-1,000 for large or doodle coats, with many parlours offering collection and delivery for a small fee.
