Services in New York, New York

Most dogs benefit from professional grooming every 4-8 weeks. Breeds with longer coats may need more frequent visits.

Look for AAHA accreditation, read reviews, check location and hours, ask about emergency services, and schedule a visit to meet the staff.

Check staff-to-dog ratios, separation by size/temperament, vaccination requirements, emergency protocols, and facility cleanliness.

Requirements vary by state and service type. Veterinarians need licenses, while groomers and daycares may have local permits. Ask about certifications.
