Pet Grooming in Ormond Beach

Ormond Beach's groomers range from neighborhood salons and pet spas to self-serve dog washes and mobile vans that work from your driveway. 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.

Heat, humidity and the water

Florida's heat and humidity keep thick coats damp, which can lead to hot spots and skin infections, and sand and salt water add to it after a day at the beach. Rinse your dog with fresh water afterward, brush out any sand or debris, and ask your groomer to dry the coat fully and point out irritated skin. Book summer appointments early in the day, never leave your dog in the car, and for double-coated breeds such as huskies, shepherds and golden retrievers, ask for a de-shed rather than a shave: the undercoat protects them from heat and sunburn.

City license and rabies

Ormond Beach has its own animal control and its own license. The city's animal code requires all dogs and cats six weeks and older kept in the city to be licensed. Licenses run for one year starting October 1, and the application needs a certificate showing each dog or cat four months or older has been vaccinated against rabies within the past 12 months. The tag must be worn on a collar. Volusia County's contact sheet lists a separate animal control office for the City of Ormond Beach. Florida law also requires rabies vaccination from four months old, and groomers will ask for proof. Training and experience vary, so ask how long the groomer has worked, where they trained, and whether they groom your breed often. Before the first visit:

• 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.

Rabies alert

In March 2025 the Florida Department of Health in Volusia County issued a 60-day rabies alert for part of Ormond Beach after a confirmed case in an unvaccinated cat captured near Collins Street and Hand Avenue. It advised owners to keep pets under direct supervision and on a leash and to avoid contact with wild or stray animals. Keep your dog's rabies vaccination current.

Storm season

Volusia County's pet planning page advises you to identify local boarding kennels that may be able to shelter your pet, and to keep leashes and collars with current license, identification and rabies tags attached securely. Book grooming well before a forecast storm, since salons fill up and close ahead of landfall.
