We will not service any aggressive dog, regardless of breed, to ensure the safety of all our guests and staff. Dogs must be clean and free of parasites (ticks, fleas, mites, etc.). There will be a $30 bathing fee for any guest who needs to be bathed due to dirt or parasites before being boarding.

What is your reservation, cancellation and policy on deposits?Late Fee & No-Show Policy: Due to the one-on-one nature of our appointments, we may not be able to take your pet if you are more than 15 minutes late. Failure to cancel an appointment within 24 hours of your scheduled time will result in a 50% Inconvenience Fee added to your account. This must be paid before we will render any further services. Retrieving your dog more than 30 minutes after your pick-up call may result in a daycare charge of $15. We understand that emergencies happen, and try our best to be flexible for our clients. It is not fair to other clients, however, for their pets to be inconvenienced because of another customer. After your second no-call no-show event, you will not be eligible to rebook. Advanced deposits will not be refunded if reservation is not cancelled within the appropriate time frame. There may be additional cancellation penalties for reservations made three months or more in advance or during high demand periods. If the pet owner wishes to pick up pets earlier than the end reserved date, thereby cancelling reserved days, owner will be responsible for the full cost of the number of days reserved.

Non-Groomable Pet PolicyNON-GROOMABLE PET POLICY REMINDER: At Allen’s Pet Spa, we try to complete all pet services in their entirety and to you, the Pet Parent’s, satisfaction. This is how we make a living and if we are injured in any way shape or form it creates a ripple effect which causes us to not be able to service you, other clients, close for business, etc. If your pet is seen is deemed non-groomable or is hiding, you will be fully charged for the appointment due to the groomer’s loss of time in which they could have scheduled another appointment. What is a non-groomable pet? A pet described as one that, upon arrival and service attempted, evaluates any solo or combination of the following. Please note that this is not a comprehensive or exclusive list and is subject to each Groomer’s skillset and judgment. Too aggressive Overly anxious Sick or sickly in appearance Visibly too old and frail to withstand a full grooming session Unable to be handled by their owner or person in the home Has certain skin conditions including but not limited to lesions, mange, parasites, rashes, and open wounds Undisclosed heart or breathing conditions Mats so tight to certain areas that they must be taken care of by a veterinarian to safely remove via sedation Unvaccinated or expired vaccination If a we decide to proceed with grooming despite these factors or only judges a pet to be non-groomable after the grooming process has begun, you will still be charged for the aforementioned reasons as well as for the effort and risk the pet has posed to Groomer’s health and safety as well as to pets they will see in future appointments and for the additional deep cleaning and sanitization that may be required as a result. Grooming can be a stressful process for some pets and they can get overly worked up where they can pose a safety hazard to themselves by writhing, straining, thrashing, and making erratic movements, as well as an increase in high heart, blood pressure, and breathing rates. Should any of these be a factor, the grooming process must be stopped for the day and veterinary attention is advised prior to another grooming session to be attempted. While we want every pet to look their best, their health and safety are our number one priority. Should a pet be deemed as non-groomable, We reserve the right to require a letter of clearance from their veterinarian to have another groom attempted. If grooming has to be terminated due to a pet’s fatigue, stress, or other health conditions, subject to the Groomer’s discretion and availability, a reattempt may be possible for an additional fee ($50 in spa; $70 mobile/in-house). We realize it may seem counterintuitive to be charged an additional fee for an incomplete job but we must take into consideration that these are circumstances beyond the Groomer’s control & travel expenses (for mobile clients) and lost appointment opportunities are still a factor. Our Groomers will do whatever they can to make your pet’s grooming go as smooth as possible the first and second time around if required. If, after two attempts, the groomer cannot safely complete the groom in these scenarios, a letter of clearance from your veterinarian must be provided before another groom can be scheduled for your pet. Reattempts at grooming must be scheduled within 1 week of the original appointment or else a full, new appointment & corresponding fees will apply. Groomers assigned to reattempts (if other than the original Groomer) are made aware of the situation and, in accepting the appointment, agree that they are willing, capable, and trained to handle the particular circumstance.
