Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer any special de-skunking or lake-rinse services for dogs who have been swimming in Carp Lake or had a run-in with local wildlife?

Yes, we absolutely do. We offer a specialized lake-rinse that uses a clarifying shampoo to remove lake algae and odors, as well as a powerful, pet-safe de-skunking treatment. This is a very common request from local pet owners, so we're well-equipped to handle these specific situations that come with the beautiful Carp Lake environment.

My dog gets anxious during grooming. Do you have any calming techniques or quieter appointment times available?

We understand this is a common concern. We offer 'low-stress' appointments, which are the first appointments of the day when the spa is at its quietest. Our groomers are trained in gentle handling techniques, and we can work in short, positive sessions. We also recommend a good walk at the Carp Lake Township Park beforehand to help your pet relax.

Given the seasonal ticks in Northern Michigan, do your grooming packages include a tick check and prevention treatment?

Yes, every grooming service includes a thorough full-body tick check, especially important after your pet has been in the woods or tall grasses around Carp Lake. While we can remove any found ticks, we are not licensed to apply preventative treatments. We recommend consulting with your local veterinarian, such as the nearby Mackinaw Veterinary Clinic, for the best long-term tick prevention plan.

We're vacationing in a rental on the lake for a week. Can I book a one-time grooming appointment, and what is your cancellation policy for visitors with uncertain travel plans?

We welcome vacationers and offer one-time appointments based on availability. We highly recommend booking before you arrive. We understand travel plans can change due to weather on the Straits, so we offer a flexible 24-hour cancellation policy for our visiting guests. Just give us a call if your ferry is delayed or your plans shift.

What do you do with the pet hair clippings? I've heard some groomers in the area donate them for wildlife nesting material.

That's a great question! We do collect and bag clean, non-treated fur clippings. We then make them available to local wildlife rehabilitators and residents for use as nesting material for birds and small animals, supporting the local ecosystem around Carp Lake. We avoid donating fur from pets who have recently been treated with flea/tick medications.
