Choosing a groomer in Edmonton
Edmonton's groomers range from neighbourhood salons and pet-store grooming counters to mobile vans that park outside your home. A full groom usually covers a bath, haircut, nail trim and ear cleaning; most groomers also offer bath-only visits, de-shedding and quick tidy-ups between full grooms.
Business licences
Edmonton's Business Licence Bylaw says a person must hold a valid licence with all the appropriate business categories for the type of business they run, so ask any groomer whether the business is licensed with the City. A licence is not a measure of skill, so also ask how long the groomer has worked and whether they groom your breed often.
Your pet's licence
All cats and dogs over six months of age, even indoor pets, must be licensed with the City of Edmonton and the licence renewed every 12 months. Groomers will usually ask for proof of rabies vaccination, and many boarding and day care businesses ask to see the licence too.
Winter cold and summer heat
The City's pet safety page suggests keeping pets indoors or shortening walks during extreme cold snaps, and warns that salt and chemicals in ice melt can irritate a dog's paws. Wipe your dog's paws after walks, and ask your groomer to keep the fur between the pads trimmed so ice does not build up. In summer the same page says dogs should be exercised in the cooler morning and evening, and that it is not recommended to shave your dog, because a coat of fur protects against UV damage and helps keep some of the sun's heat out. For double-coated breeds such as huskies and shepherds, ask for a de-shed rather than a shave.
Before the first appointment
- Tell the groomer about your dog's health, age and temperament.
- Ask how dogs are dried; if a cage dryer is used, someone should check the dog often.
- Ask which vaccines they require, and reschedule if your dog is coughing.
- If the coat is badly matted, ask about a short clip rather than hours of brushing out.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does dog grooming cost in Edmonton?
It depends on your dog's size, coat and condition, so ask each groomer for a quote. Large dogs, thick or curly coats and matted fur cost more, and a bath-only visit costs less than a full groom.
Do groomers in Edmonton need a licence?
Edmonton's Business Licence Bylaw requires a business to hold a valid licence with the appropriate business categories for the work it does. Ask the groomer whether the business is licensed with the City.
Does my dog need to be licensed in Edmonton?
Yes. All cats and dogs over six months of age, even indoor pets, must be licensed with the City of Edmonton, and the licence is renewed every 12 months.
How do I protect my dog's paws in winter?
The City advises avoiding ice melt and salted roads where you can, because salt and chemicals can irritate paws. Wipe your dog's paws after walks and ask your groomer to keep the fur between the pads trimmed.
Is mobile grooming a good option?
A mobile groomer works from a van outside your home, usually with one dog at a time. That suits anxious or older dogs and saves a trip across the city, though it usually costs more than a salon.
What vaccinations does my dog need for grooming?
Groomers will usually ask for proof of rabies vaccination. Many also ask for DHPP and Bordetella (kennel cough), so check with the groomer when you book.
