Pricing:

Dog grooming looks expensive on the surface, but the reality behind the price is very different.

Groomers are dealing with exactly the same cost of living pressures as everyone else. Rent, mortgages, food, fuel, electricity, insurance and council tax have all gone up, and grooming salons are hit particularly hard by energy costs because dryers, clippers and bathing systems run all day.

A typical groom price is usually split three ways. Roughly a third goes to the groomer as wages. A third goes straight to the government through tax, National Insurance and VAT where applicable. The final third goes back into the business to cover rent, utilities, insurance, equipment servicing, sharpening, products, software, training and saving for big-ticket items like hydraulic tables or professional dryers that can cost thousands.

When you break it down, a £60 groom that takes two hours works out at around £10 per hour for the groomer before personal tax.

That is less than minimum wage, for a skilled, physically demanding job that carries real risk of injury.

Grooming is not just washing a dog. It involves training, handling skills, animal welfare responsibility, physical strain, ongoing education and significant overheads. Many groomers have already absorbed rising costs for years before increasing prices, often at the expense of their own income.

Everyone is feeling the squeeze, including groomers. Higher prices are rarely about profit, they’re about survival. Without realistic pricing, experienced groomers simply cannot afford to stay in business, and that ultimately reduces choice and standards for dog owners.

Working from home does not mean no overheads. It still involves utilities, equipment, consumables, maintenance, insurance, training, tear and wear, all of which add up very quickly. The bills,responsibility and expenses are still very real.
Saying there are no overheads massively undervalues the work and misrepresenting what it actually costs to run a safe, professional grooming set up.

Molly might just be my longest standing customer. She followed me to 3 different salons! She's the loveliest Yorkshire Terrier 😍
Today she was bathed in Iv San Bernard - Fruit of the groomer Arancia (Orange).
Smells sooo yummy and fresh, it felt like we were in Seville for a few seconds... until I looked out the window and saw the pouring rain 🌧 🤣
