Happy mid-August!
Couple of important updates to share with all of our clients!⬇️
⭐️At this time, we are booking out 3-4 weeks on average. While this is a GOOD problem for a business to have, we understand that it makes booking a little tricky for some clients! That being said- we highly recommend you prebook your next appointment during check out each time. This helps ensure your pet is seen on an ideal schedule, and helps our groomer plan her work days.
⭐️ We never allow walk ins for any services within our grooming department! Please always plan to call ahead to get scheduled and keep in mind, we rarely offer same day services to be booked.
⭐️ At this time, we are not taking any new poodle mixes over 55lbs, and no new dogs of any breed over 70lbs. We understand this may not be ideal for some owners, but we have great referrals in the area, as well as our Franklin location, for larger breed dogs!
⭐️ We have updated our website, to make it a little more user friendly for clients! When you go to https://starvetcenters.com , hover over ‘services’, and then ‘grooming’, our Muskego location and Franklin location are now split! Please remember- we don’t allow online booking for any grooming services. We only have an online REQUEST form. When you fill out and submit a request form, please watch your email inbox for a response within 48 hours and make sure you confirm the time and date selection by responding back! We’ve had a few issues lately with clients requesting a date and time, our groomer responding, then getting no response back but the client shows up expecting their appointment was booked. We cannot book appointments if we do not receive confirmation from the owner.
⭐️ As always, we require vaccine documents to be sent in PRIOR to your pets grooming appointment, for verification. This includes any vaccine updates that are required for grooming- Rabies, DAPP, & Bordetella. It’s typically easiest to just have your vet email us a copy at the time the vaccine services are rendered.
⭐️ Lastly, it’s never too early to get your pets holiday grooming appointments booked! Our books are currently open through the first few weeks of January, but are subject to change. So it’s best to get your appointment booked early and we can make adjustments if needed as we get closer.
If you made it this far, thank you all for the continued business and support! Our small business is so appreciative to be growing at this rate!⭐️🫶🏼🐾
All my best,
Alayna, Star Vet of Muskego Groomer
