Are you supposed to tip your dog groomer?

Like you tip your hair stylist? If so, what's the standard amount? Do you tip if the groomer owns the business?

I don't take my dogs to a groomer - but after having worked with someone who groomed on the side and bathing a few dogs for her in a pinch - I definetly would if I was satisfied with their work. Grooming is alot more difficult than you may think. Especially if the owner doesn't upkeep the coat or the dog isn't well behaved.



I doubt there's a standard amount - it doesn't even have to be money, as Jennifer T pointed out. Just a little something to show you appreciate what they're doing.



You can't really compare it to a human going to a hairstylist. You sit still. You don't try to bite, scratch, snarl or bark at your hairstylist. You do not urinate or have a bowel movement wile they're trying to do your hair. You don't try to jump out of the chair or fight when they try to wash your hair. There are groomers that have to deal with this for some dogs.

I never tip the dog groomer. Maybe I am a bit selfish, but I figure I'm paying $60 for a dog shampoo and haircut. That's for only a couple of hours of work! They are making plenty enough money off of me!

Some people do, some people don't. It is not expected that you tip, like it is in a restaurant, but if you really like your dog's cut. than they accept tips and are usually very grateful. I give a 5 dollar tip if I really like my dogs cut, but that is for a full service trim. I would still tip if the groomer owned the place, she would still appreciated it and did as much work as she would have had she not owned the place.

I don't tip my dog's groomer. I think $60 is too much to groom a dog in the first place.

that's left up to you-did you like the look of your pet when they are done? Do you want a last minute appt? TIPS stands for: To Insure Proper Service. If you like your groomer and want to keep their services, consider it.

Tips are really designed to reward satisfactory or excellent work. If you groomer is the greatest, feel free to tip generously. If your groomer is not so good...don't, then find a better groomer. Many of my customers give me neat things like "Best Groomer" certificates for my walls and pics of their dogs on vacation or in Christmas photos. Trust me, any token of appreciation is cherished.

I always do. Of course I also take in 5 dogs at once! All of the dogs love this lady and she is sooooo good with them. I think she deserves a little extra something!
