Failure to call 24 hours before your appointment or failure to have your pet available at the scheduled time WILL result in a charge of $50, which must be paid within 7 business days. All scheduled multiple pet clients, who may decide not to groom one of their pets at the last moment, WILL be responsible for part or all of that pets grooming charge. There will be a $25 trip fee for those such missed scheduled appointments, which must be paid within 7 business days. Ultimately it is the Client’s responsibility to keep track of their scheduled appointments. However, Groomer Has It will attempt to make a courtesy phone call or text one business day ahead to remind you. If you are a first time Client and you are a no show when groomer arrives for your scheduled appointment, Groomer Has It will not schedule any future appointments unless a prepayment is made.
APPOINTMENT TIMES An appointment time is truly an ‘estimated time of arrival’. Arrival time will be in a 1-2 hour time span. As a mobile service, our schedule is subject to interruptions and delays, such as, but not limited to: Refueling, traffic, driving distance from previous appointment and running over on a previous appointment. If Groomer Has It feels they will be more than 15 minutes early or late, Groomer Has It may call ahead.
KEY ON FILE SERVICE For existing clients, Groomer Has It offers a limited ‘key on file service’. Client provides Groomer Has It with a key to keep on file, a garage code, or some other form of access to the home, Groomer Has It will come by at your scheduled grooming appointment time to care for your pet and Client just leaves an approved form of payment. Groomer Has It will not be held responsible for damages or theft to Clients home or property while on the service call for grooming your pet(s). Please call us to discuss the possibility of this type of arrangement.
MATTED OR NEGLECTED COAT Excessive de-matting is a painful, time-consuming and costly procedure that causes extreme discomfort and can aggravate, or cause skin problems. Client is aware that neglect of the pet’s coat can be cause for problems after grooming such as clipper/brush irritation. If Client’s pet does not remain still accidents can happen such as, cuts, nicks, etc. from clippers or scissors. However, it is at Groomer Has It’s discretion to determine if it is safe for the pet to be de-matted, if not, a “shave-down “of the pets coat will be completed. Shaving your pet may dramatically change your pet’s appearance and the hair will be very close to the skin. This may expose pre-existing skin conditions. Client’s pet will receive a shave down & start over (additional fee for shave down.) Closely shaved pets are also prone to sunburn & should either have sun screen applied daily or should be kept out of the sun until the hair grows sufficiently to protect the skin. In some cases pets may also exhibit brief behavioral changes. In certain breeds & coat types, the coat may not grow back the same. Removing a heavily matted coat includes the risk of nicks, cuts and/or abrasions due to moles, warts or skin folds trapped in the mats. Heavy matting can also trap moisture near the pet’s skin which can cause mold, fungus, bacteria or skin irritations that exist prior to the grooming process. The after-effects of mat removal procedures may include itchiness, skin redness, self-inflicted irritations or abrasions, or failure of hair to re-grow. Client is responsible for the condition of the pet’s coat and will not hold Groomer Has It responsible in the event of adverse effects of mat removal.
CURRENT VACCINATIONS/VETERINARY INFORMATION Your pet’s safety is first
at Groomer Has It. We require a current rabies vaccination expiration date before any grooming services will be performed. Proof of Rabies Vaccination shall be provided to Groomer Has It upon request as well as current Veterinarian information.
SAFETY/DOG BEHAVIOR Client must inform us prior to grooming if your pet has bitten someone or has aggressive tendencies. Groomer Has It will not accept any aggressive dog. If false representations about the pet’s behavior were made when asked during booking of an appointment, we will discontinue services and Client will still be responsible for the full grooming charge. Client will be liable for any bites or any property damage caused by their pet(s). For Groomer’s safety as well as your pets, Groomer Has It has the right to refuse service in the event of a pet that cannot be handled safely. FOR OVERLY AGGRESSIVE OR OVERLY STRESSED PETS, GROOMER HAS IT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MAINTAIN YOU AS A CLIENT
SENIOR PETS AND PETS WITH HEALTH ISSUES Grooming procedures sometimes
can be stressful, especially for a senior pet or a pet with health problems. Because senior pets and pets with health problems have a greater chance of injury, these pets will be groomed for cleanliness and comfort, in styles that will not add to their stress. Groomer Has It will not be responsible for accident or injury to an elderly or health-compromised pet during their grooming.
FLEA/TICK INFESTATION/SALON SANITATION Flea and tick infestation
cannot be tolerated. Client is responsible for keeping their pet(s) flea and tick free. If a flea or tick is found on your pet, Groomer Has It will administer a flea and tick shampoo to eradicate the fleas in order to maintain salon sanitation. If Groomer Has It finds an infestation of fleas or ticks on a pet, an additional $75 de-bug cleaning fee will be added in addition to the groom fee for this service. There may be side effects, including, but not limited to allergic reactions, which may result from the manufacturer-recommended usage of said products, which Client agrees that Groomer Has It will not be held responsible for. Additionally, Client is also aware that any such treatments are not guaranteed to be one hundred (100%) effective.
