At Sit Bark and Relax, we treat your furry family members as if they were our own. They are always treated with love and respect and made as comfortable as possible during their day at the spa. We provide a variety of services to me their needs.
Hydro Massage Bath
Your dog will be treated to a massaging, deep-cleaning, warm bath. The massaging spraying gets down under the coat to open up the pores and truly get your dog's skin and coat squeaky clean without excessive time in the tub. (included in groom cost)
Exclusively Envirogroom Bath Products
Gentle, yet effective natural shampoos, conditions, and fragrances that contain no wheat, gluten, or parabens and are nontoxic and biodegradable. Envirogroom products are protein and vitamin fortified to leave your pet's coat soft and shiny, as well as clean and smelling fresh. (included in groom cost)
Cranberry Facial
Your dog is treated to a facial while at the spa! Cranberry Facial is a special, mild cleanser by Envirogroom designed especially for cleaning the head and sensitive face area and safely and effectively, leaving your dogs face fresh and clean. (included in groom cost)
Brush and Blow Dry
After the bath, your dog will be dried and thoroughly brushed to remove small tangles and undercoat. We offer deshedding for those professional shedders. Most dogs will blow dried by hand, but some coats dry better under a fan or blower it a cage. No heated cage dryers are ever used. (included in groom cost - there may be an upcharge for tangling, excessive undercoat, or deshedding)
Pawdicure
Your dogs nails will be clipped to an appropriate length and filed smooth to avoid scratches from freshly clipped edges. If desired, your pet's nails can also be painted in your choice of color (red or pink currently, but selection will be improving soon) for an additional $5 fee. (included in groom cost/$5 for painted nails)
Clip/Trim
Whether your pet desires "a little off the top" or a buzz cut, we can accommodate. Pictures of your favorite trim are always helpful, but not necessary. Please be advised that I do not de-mat. I will brush out small tangles or excessive undercoat, but any large mats will need to be cut out. This may result in a shorter cut than desired for your pet if matting is extensive. Please understand that this is for your pet's comfort. De-matting is an extremely uncomfortable and painful process and leaves damaged hair that is more prone to matting again. Hair will grow back. If your dog is matted and requires a shorter clip than desired, please consider a shorter interval between spa visits. (included in FULL groom cost - matted/tangled coats may require an upcharge)
One on one attention for your pet. I groom one dog (or family of dogs) at a time, straight through so they spend minimal to no time in a crate and get to go home as soon as they are done.
