Dear Furry 2 Fluffy Pet Grooming Customers,
I wanted to take a moment to share some important updates regarding my grooming prices, which will take effect on February 1, 2025. Please know that this decision was not made lightly, but it is necessary for me to continue operating in today’s economy, where costs are rising. After researching pricing in our area and online, I have adjusted my grooming services to reflect more realistic rates. While most services have only increased slightly, there are some significant changes to a few specific treatments. The full groom service, and full groom/cut service have experienced the most noticeable updates. Additionally, I have revamped the frequency program and added a $25 fee per pet for appointments that are canceled or rescheduled within 24 hours. As a small business, it’s crucial for me to maintain a consistent schedule to stay financially viable. In considering discounts, I chose to rework the frequency program rather than introduce additional discounts. I want to ensure that my loyal customers feel valued. Under the new frequency program, after 10 grooming visits, you will receive a $10 discount on your grooming bill. I am currently accepting new clients, and if you refer someone who books an appointment, you will receive a $10 discount off your next visit after their first appointment is paid. I am also introducing a new service called the Mini-Shed Treatment for $10, which includes a brush-out and blow-out but does not include a bath. This option may benefit pet owners whose shedding pets typically come in every eight weeks, allowing them to come in every four weeks to help manage shedding between appointments.The Full Groom service includes a bath, brush-out/blow-out, nail buffing, ear cleaning, and hygiene trimming around the face, feet, and rear. Although the new price may appear to have increased, it is now discounted by 20% compared to the previous nearly 45% discount. The Cut with Full Groom is also discounted by 20% and includes a full body haircut, bath, brush-out/blow-out, nail buffing, ear cleaning, and hygiene trimming. Again, while this service seems to have increased in price, it was similarly discounted by 45% prior to these changes. Finally, the pricing structure for nail buffing/clipping will now be standardized at $15, regardless of your pet's size. Please feel free to reach out if you would like to know the new prices for your pets or if you have any questions or concerns. I assure you that making these changes has been challenging for me, and I truly appreciate your continued support. I care for each of your pets as if they were my own. If you decide that you no longer need my services, please let me know so I can update my mailing list. Please, reach out if you need to discuss options.
