Mobile Pet Grooming in Ankeny, IA

Most mobile groomers in Ankeny charge between $75 and $150 for a full groom on a small or medium dog, and more for large or double-coated breeds. Prices usually run 20 to 40 percent above a salon because you get one-on-one service at your door. Ask each groomer about travel fees and multi-pet discounts.

Most do not. Modern grooming vans carry their own fresh-water tank, water heater and generator, so all they need is a legal place to park close to your door.

Plan on 60 to 90 minutes for one dog, depending on coat type and size. Because there is no waiting in a kennel, your pet is only in the van for the actual groom.

Yes, and it is one of the best reasons to book one. One groomer, one pet and no other animals around makes the visit calmer for nervous, elderly or reactive pets. Mention any health or behavior issues when you book.
