He was taught on the job as a bather and worked his way up to groomer status, thanks to the master groomers who taught him along the way. Andrew’s favorite breed would be a Yorkie, but his favorite cuts are lamb cuts, poodle cuts with pom poms, and patterns like schnauzers and Westies. Andrew just celebrated his 6th year at Spawlash and looks forward to many more.

FAQs
Find answers to your most pressing questions about our grooming services right here.
How can I get an accurate quote for pricing out a full-service bath or groom?
The best way to get an accurate quote is to bring your dog in so a groomer can assess and discuss your dog's needs with you first-hand. Pricing can vary based on the dog's size, coat type, coat condition, and behavior, which directly impacts how much time and effort it takes a skilled groomer to complete.
What if my dog is aggressive or fearful?
We assess each dog on a case-by-case basis and do our best to accommodate your furry family member's specific needs. We work hard to build a long-term trusting relationship with every dog, get to know them as individuals, and help them feel as comfortable as possible.
Can I stay and watch while my dog is groomed?
You can stay in the retail area, shop, or browse our products while your dog is being groomed in the enclosed groom room. However, we cannot allow pet parents to be in the groom room as this is a distraction for both the dogs and groomers.
Why wasn't a groomer available when I came in for a walk-in service?
Sometimes our groomers finish their day early or take time off, and we cannot guarantee a groomer will always be available until 3 PM for walk-in services.
Do you accept walk-ins?
Yes! We accept walk-ins for nail trims, nail filing, teeth brushing, and gland expression from 9 AM – 3 PM, so long as a groomer is available.
Do I need an appointment?
Can I stay and watch my pet being groomed?
What about anxious or reactive pets?

What should I do to prepare my pet for a groom?
Should I pre-book recurring appointments?
Absolutely — and we encourage it! Pre-booking on a recurring schedule (every 4, 6, or 8 weeks) is the best way to keep your pet's coat and skin in optimal condition. Your pet also benefits from building a lasting relationship and bond with a stylist they know and trust. Clients who pre-book recurring appointments get first choice of their preferred day and time — plus $5 off every recurring service! 💜
Why does Self-Wash close at 3:45 PM?
Self-Wash requires clients to finish bathing their dog by 4:30 PM so that we have time to properly sanitize and disinfect equipment for use the next day.
What are your Self-Wash hours?
Self-Wash is available Tuesday through Sunday from 9 AM to 3:45 PM. All clients must be done using self-wash by 4:30 PM so we have time to properly sanitize and disinfect equipment for use the next day.
What is included in Self-Wash?
Do you really track the free 6th wash?
Does my dog need to be on a leash at all times?
Yes! For your dog's safety and the safety of others, please keep your dog leashed at all times while in the salon, including the self-wash area. Just because your dog is friendly doesn't mean other dogs are.
Are children allowed in the Self-Wash area?
Yes! We encourage families to make their dog's spa day a fun family event. However, please be sure to watch your children and keep them in your self-wash station area. We can't have children left unattended and potentially running up to someone else's dog that may be fearful or aggressive.
What if you don't have the product or service that I'm looking for?
Please ask! We do our best to accommodate, whether it be ordering a retail product you'd like to see us carry or pricing for a custom service that isn't listed on our services menu.
What do you carry in the boutique?
How do you determine retail pricing?
How much does a groom cost?
All prices shown in this menu are starting-at prices. The best way to get an accurate quote is to bring your dog in so a stylist can assess their needs first-hand. Final pricing can vary based on size, coat type, coat condition, matting, behavior, and how much time and effort the groom requires.
Why might my dog's price differ from what's listed?

What kind of coat does my dog have?
Knowing your dog's coat type helps you choose the perfect Spa Package! Drop coats (Yorkies, Maltese, Shih Tzus) have long, silky hair that flows downward — our Silky Drop Coat Spa is ideal. Double coats (Huskies, Golden Retrievers, Corgis) have a dense undercoat beneath a protective topcoat — try our Shed-Free Double Coat Spa. Wire coats (Schnauzers, Terriers) have a coarse, bristly texture. Curly and textured coats (Poodles, Doodles, wire breeds) benefit from our Volume & Body Spa for lift and structure, or our Detox Spa for deep cleansing. Smooth/short coats (Labs, Beagles) benefit from our bath services and Gentle Skin Spa. Not sure? Just ask your stylist — they'll recommend the best treatment for your pup.
