How Much Do You Tip The Groomer? She charged $40 per dog (2 dogs) for grooming which included teeth brushing and some extras. Excellent groomer who does not cage the pups, she lets them all play together and my pups loved it. It relieved the usual caged up stress. It is not her own business, she is employed by a doggy boutique. Thanks! |

I give $5 or 15% depending on how much the groomer does. Sometimes it is just a bath and nail trim, and clean up around the eyes and butt. Other times, it is a full cut. |
I usually tip 20%. Natalie goes to Petsmart and always sees the girl. She is also the manager of the grooming salon so I know she has been doing this awhile. I think if you tip well and regularly see the same person, they take better care of your baby and makes it easier on the dog as well. |
I tip 25-30% but she picks up my baby from my job and takes her with her. She also offered to bring her back if I needed. She only charges me 20.00 for everything and she takes great care of her.. |
i just had karleigh groomed a few days ago and they rasied there rates by $2.00 but i trust them and they do a great job so i still tip at least $7.00 |
I tip 20%. I have an excellent groomer who just loves my little one!! |
I'm glad someone asked this. I'm taking Jake to the groomer for the first time next week. I'm nervous:animal-pa |
wow i save alot of money by doing them myself lol |
I give a lot. Jazzie was groomed today and her bill was $42.00 - I gave $60 - no change. |
I have both babies done for $48 each (so $96.00) and tip $20 ..YIKES! It hurts when I write it down. I usually just sign the slip without looking. I am going to try to take them only every 2 months ... this is the first time I am going 2 months, so I shall see what happens and if I can see their faces. These babies are high maintenance .... but worth every penny. |
In the past I've only done approx 10% - where I go that's what they say the standard is. But now I take both of them to the instructor who teaches dog grooming - She charges $15 per dog for bath and brush out (nails and ears as well) and she's not allowed to accept tips! (She charges $25 per dog for others but as I have been going for years she has never raised my rates!) |
Something else I thought of... ask if they will give any discounts if you set up standing appointments. I know there is a a professional groomer by us who charges $35 per dog, but if you schedule six weeks out on a consistent basis, she charges $25 per dog. If you take them in every 3 weeks, she charges only $10. |
I just had Cali and Maya groomed yesterday and it was 44.00 total so I tipped her 16.00 since she is so reasonable. I have been using her for 17 years. |
Thanks for your responses. As it turned out the tip I gave was exactly 20% because the was the exact amount of cash I had with me. I feel better knowing that was a decent tip because I just didn't have any idea. I think Daisy and Teddy really liked it there. They didn't seem at all stressed when I picked them up like they are when they have spent all day in a cage. They got a report card that said they were perfect angels (hmmmm...I sure hope they were)...and today I got a "thank you and hope to see Daisy and Teddy Again" card in the mail. I guess they behaved ok since they are asking them to come back. LOL I am very pleased with the groomer and will definitely go back. It is like they get a doggy play day at the same time as being groomed. I think it was well worth the price. |
