Grooming

Dog groomers typically charge extra for additional services such as teeth cleaning, flea treatments and nail clipping. On average, expect to pay between $30 and $90 for standard grooming, depending on the size of your pet and its amount of fur.

Being a pet groomer is hard work, but can be fun and rewarding based on who you are working with. Of course some animals are harder to groom than others. Sometimes you will have a good day and others will be rough. ... Try not to get frustrated and understand each animal you groom.

In general, you should tip your groomer 15 to 20 percent of the service total. Appreciation tips are a token of gratitude and are whatever you can afford. Your groomer will sometimes throw in extra services at no charge, such as adding conditioner, brushing teeth or grinding nails.
