A shop with no kennels and no cage dryers
Clover & Clip Grooming is a Fear-Free dog and cat grooming shop at 123 this street, TR 12345, where every pet is groomed straight through by one groomer, then collected.
There are no barking kennel walls here and no six-hour waits. A pet is checked in, combed through and priced, groomed from bath to finish with botanical shampoos and quiet hand-drying, and then goes home. A coat that needs more than the booked groom is re-quoted at check-in, and the owner decides.
Nothing is added during an appointment. Light tangles are brushed out at $15 per 15 minutes only when that is comfortable, a $22 flea bath only if fleas are found, and both are said out loud first. There is no upsell at the table and no charge that appears only on the way out.
Three house rules
-
The comb-out comes before the price
Every listed price is a range by weight and coat. The free comb-out at check-in fixes the exact figure, and any difference is named then rather than at the end.
-
The pet sets the pace
A worried pet gets breaks, a calming hoodie for the dryer or a shorter visit, never sedatives. An appointment that ends early is charged for what was actually done.
-
Comfort before the cut
A pelted coat is reset short rather than pulled through, and a double coat is never shaved. Clover & Clip Grooming promises gentle handling, not a look from a breed book.
A visit, in four steps
-
Step 1
Check-in and comb-out
Coat, mats, skin and mood, plus the Rabies record, before anything is switched on.
-
Step 2
The groom is agreed
One of the six grooms, with blade-length samples for a haircut, or a plain no for today.
-
Step 3
The bath and the hand-dry
Botanical washes, ear cleaning and a quiet fluff-dry by hand, never in a cage.
-
Step 4
Styling and a heads-up
The cut, the nails and the paws, then a call before the finish so pickup is never a wait.
What this shop will not do
Clover & Clip Grooming is a grooming shop and not a veterinary practice. It does not diagnose, treat or sedate, uses no harsh flea dips and no cage dryers, and a pet in pain or unwell is referred to a vet rather than groomed. It takes no walk-ins, asks for 24 hours’ notice of changes and suggests a four-to-six-week rebook for curly coats.
A tangle, a nervous pup or a price to check
The contact form sends a note about your dog or cat straight to the groomers. Book opens the same page, and a time is only fixed once a groomer has replied.
