Professional Grooming for a Healthy, Happy Pet
Regular grooming is essential for your pet's health and wellbeing. Beyond keeping your dog looking and smelling great, proper grooming helps prevent skin issues, matting, and allows our groomers to spot potential health concerns early. At Carden Kennels, our experienced grooming team treats each pet with gentle, patient care.
Our bath services include shampoos selected for your pet's coat, thorough hand drying, and a complete brush out. For dogs with longer or curly coats, we offer full groom packages that include trimming and styling. We also provide ala carte services like nail trims, sanitary trims, and ear cleaning for quick touch-ups between full grooming appointments.
Grooming is a perfect add-on to your pet's boarding stay or daycare visit. Schedule a bath before pickup so your furry friend comes home looking their absolute best! Many of our regular daycare clients book monthly grooming appointments to maintain their dog's coat health.
