FAQ

  • Where do you set up?

    I use a provided wash space, in which the bathing and drying will occur (if outlet is available). My table and supplies are set up somewhere easy to be cleaned, such as a garage.

  • Do you need anything from me?

    At the start of my mobile grooms I require a quick consultation about what service you are requesting. This will ensure that I can achieve your desired result. Then, I will need a quick tour to show my work space. After that, you are welcome to do whatever you need while I work.

  • Do you have experience with (X) breed of dogs?

    I have been working with dogs for a very long time. Before I founded Snout & About I worked and volunteered in daycares, boarding, and shelters. Additionally, I have always been exposed to rescue breeds of my own. There is very rarely a breed, or temperament, that I haven’t interacted with. I have researched many breeds extensively to achieve the best results from my care. Every pup is different! While I often know expected temperaments, behaviors, quirks, activity levels, etc. it is also dependent on the individual. However, I approach each dog with kindness and compassion as they all deserve.

  • What qualifications do you have? How Long have you been doing this?

    I have been pet-sitting for several years! I decided in 2024 to further my education in the animal industry through Animal Behavior College. I am now a certified pet groomer, as well as having achieved a CPR, and first aid certification. The animal industry does not have the same regulations as many other industries, however, I believe it is most important to better my education in order to provide peace of mind to my human clients, and safety for my furry clients.

  • Do you offer nail trims?

    Due to the low traffic of stand-alone services, I cannot offer nail trims as an individual service. I believe in charging fair amounts for my services, if I want to continue with that standard I cannot offer this service on its own. However, if I am watching your pup for a stay-cation, I offer several add-ons! Nail trims, full service grooms, baths, and touch ups (Face, feet, fanny) can all be added onto a pet-sitting service for discounted prices.
