Grooming by Kaitlyn
Grooming on the dog’s terms, in their home.
Coming Soon
Grooming by Kaitlyn provides in-home, comfort-first, behavior-informed grooming services. Every decision, from product selection to handling technique to appointment structure, is made around each individual dog rather than a production schedule. Because every dog deserves a groomer who has deliberately built their approach around that.
Comfort & Safety Standards
Not every traditionally offered grooming service supports long-term coat health or emotional well-being in every dog. The standards below reflect a veterinary-informed, comfort-first approach to evaluating when certain procedures are appropriate. These decisions are made on a case-by-case basis, with the dog’s health, stress level, and medical guidance in mind.
Anal Gland Expression - Should only be performed in veterinary settings, will not be performed during grooming.
Dematting - Matting is addressed by shaving; prolonged brushing is not performed.
Ear Plucking - Performed only when specifically recommended by a veterinarian.
Teeth Brushing - Offered only when part of an established at-home dental routine and medically appropriate.
