What good care looks like
A good groomer asks about your pet's health, age, temperament and vaccination record before the first visit. Ask how pets are dried (cage dryers left unattended can cause overheating), whether sedation is ever used (it should only be given by a vet) and how pets are kept apart.

Before you book
Have your pet's vaccination record ready, since licensed facilities ask for it. For boarding, visit first, ask about staff on site overnight and which vet is called in an emergency.
Check the badge first, then read the reviews and the response rate. Ask for a written quote that names the company on the licence, and pay only to an account in that company's name.
