At Fairview Boarding’s groom salon, we offer two levels of pampering to suit your dog’s needs — a Tidy Up for quick maintenance or a Full Groom for a complete transformation.

A Tidy Up is a light grooming session focused on keeping your dog neat and comfortable between full grooms. It includes a bath, blow-dry, nail trim, and trimming around the face, paw pads, and sanitary areas. It does not include clipping or changing the body hair length. Perfect, as a refresher between full grooms.

A Full Groom is a full-service makeover that includes everything in a Tidy Up plus a full body haircut, length reduction, and breed-specific styling. It’s ideal for dogs with high-maintenance coats or those needing a major trim or style update.
Key Differences:
Body Hair: Tidy Ups maintain current length; Full Grooms reshape and style the coat.
Purpose: Tidy Ups are for upkeep; Full Grooms are for total transformations.
