While we try to give accurate price quotes, your pet's grooming fee may vary. Prices are based on the actual work involved, so your pet's behavior and coat condition play a large role in setting the fee. This means that we can't give you a finalized price until the end of the groom. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Vania is an artist and you can tell she takes great pride in what she does. I needed to get my cat groomed in a bad way. He's a Persian and had some nasty mats that needed attention. She bathed and groomed him to perfection. Better than I expected. I can't recommend her enough. There is no doubt the next time I need it done again I will be calling her ASAP. Didn't take that long either. Highly recommended!

Vania did a great job with our golden retriever, Barleigh. This was the first time we've had her groomed and we will definitely be going back to K9 Design. I dropped her off in the morning and she was definitely a little afraid and wanted to leave with me. Vania was very calming for the dog and gently took her back to the grooming area. The result was great.
I picked Barleigh up and she looked like a new dog! She looked like herself, but just all spruced up. Her feet looked great, the nails were cut and filed, her feathering was all uniform, and her coat just looked thick and soft. The best part was she smelled great for a full week even after one swim in a pond!
