Most dogs should be professionally groomed every 4–8 weeks. Double-coated and curly-coated breeds such as Goldendoodles, Poodles and Huskies usually need a groom every 4–6 weeks, while short-haired dogs can go 8–12 weeks between full grooms. Brushing at home between visits helps prevent matting and keeps the coat healthy.

At Ivy Pets in Brooklyn, dog grooming is priced by weight. A Baths Only package starts at $70, Standard Grooming at $90, and our full Pamper Package at $115, with prices rising for larger dogs. Final pricing depends on your dog’s size, breed and coat condition — call (718) 820-0002 for an exact quote.

A full grooming service at Ivy Pets includes a bath with premium shampoo and conditioner, a blow-dry and full brush-out, a breed-specific or custom haircut, nail trimming, ear cleaning and a sanitary trim. Every Full Groom finishes with a light coat spritz and a fresh bandana.

Yes — grooming is safe for senior and anxious dogs when it’s done with patience and care. Our groomers use a calm, low-stress approach, and because Ivy Pets is a full veterinary practice, a licensed vet team is always on-site for added safety with nervous, senior or special-needs pets.

Yes, we groom matted coats using a humane, pain-free approach. Light matting can often be gently brushed out, while severe matting is carefully clipped to avoid pulling the skin. For your dog’s comfort and safety, our groomers always recommend the kindest option rather than forcing out tight mats.

A typical dog grooming appointment at Ivy Pets takes about 2 to 4 hours, depending on your dog’s size, coat type and the services booked. Small, short-haired dogs are often ready sooner, while doodles and heavily matted coats take longer. We’ll give you an estimated pickup time at drop-off.
