Yes! If your pet has a special medicated shampoo, please bring along with you! However, we would recommend using our preferred range of shampoo for better grooming results.

​

  • MY PET HAS TEMPERAMENT ISSUES. CAN I SEND IT FOR GROOMING?

​

For the safety of our staff member, we may evaluate your pet’s condition on a case by case basis. It is advisable that your pet is trained and rehabilitated by a professional personnel before going for a grooming session. Pawfessional Pet Care reserves the right to refuse admittance to any pet that demonstrates aggressive behaviour, or fail to meet our temperament policies.

​

  • MY PET HAS FLEA/TICKS ISSUES. CAN I SEND IT FOR GROOMING?

​

For the safety of other pet guests, we strongly advise that your pet is currently on flea/tick prevention. We undertake stringent measures to ensure a clean & comfortable environment for our pet guests.

​

  • MY PET’S FUR IS ALL MATTED. MAY I REQUEST FOR A SPECIFIC TRIM / STYLE?

 

We will assess the coat condition and advise on the most suitable style for your pet. In most cases, we will recommend a shave down as the detangling process may cause stress, pain and discomfort to your pet (please note that more than 1 grooming session may be required if your pet is severely matted). Prices of dematting will vary according to the size of your pet & condition of coat. We strongly encourage to keep a manageable fur length for easy maintenance. There is a high chance that your pet’s skin will become irritated during the clipping process. We will use a medicated shampoo to help sooth any irritation that may occur. Matted coats can cause a variety of skin & health problems. Matted fur does not allow for air circulation to the skin, causing hot spots, bacterial and fungal infections. Fleas, ticks and other parasites may be lurking in the coat causing further skin infections. The best way to prevent tangling/matting is frequent brushing.

​

Pawcation Daycare
​
  • WHAT IS PAWCATION DAYCARE?

Every furry guest will attend an Evaluation Day, where we will check his/her temperament, play style, and energy levels. Daycare is available daily from 11am – 8pm, Monday – Sunday.  We request that you pick up your pet on time, or before, to avoid incurring a late fee.

​

  • DO I NEED TO MAKE DAYCARE RESERVATIONS?

       

Pet owners must produce their NRIC or Passport upon registration. We highly recommend reservations especially during the Peak / Holiday seasons. We do accept walk-ins, however, daycare is limited to the ratio of furry guests to staff members. Hence, pet owners are strongly encouraged to make reservations in advance to avoid disappointment.
