Keeping Pets Clean, Comfortable, and Looking Their Best
Your pet's coat, skin, nails, and ears are all part of their overall health. Regular grooming helps prevent matting, skin irritation, ear infections, and overgrown nails that can affect the way your pet moves and feels. At Pine Plains Veterinary Hospital, our grooming services are performed in a safe, clean environment by a team that genuinely loves animals. We proudly serve pet owners throughout Pine Plains and the surrounding Hudson Valley communities.
Our Grooming Services
- Bath & Dry: A thorough wash with pet-safe shampoo followed by a professional blow-dry, leaving your pet clean, fresh, and comfortable.

Grooming for Every Breed and Coat Type
Every pet is different, and so is every coat. Whether you have a double-coated golden retriever that sheds year-round, a curly-coated doodle prone to matting, or a short-haired cat that just needs a seasonal deshed, our groomers adapt their technique to suit your pet's specific needs. We take the time to understand your pet's coat before we begin, and we welcome your input on length, style, and any sensitivities your pet may have.
Dogs with longer coats or those prone to tangles benefit from more frequent grooming visits to prevent painful matting close to the skin. Shorter-coated breeds may need less frequent full grooms but still benefit from regular nail trims, ear cleaning, and bathing to keep skin healthy. We are happy to recommend a grooming schedule that fits your pet's coat type and lifestyle.
How Regular Grooming Supports Your Pet's Health
Grooming is not just about appearance. Routine grooming plays a meaningful role in your pet's physical health and early detection of conditions that might otherwise go unnoticed between veterinary visits.
During a grooming session, our team keeps an eye out for changes in your pet's skin and coat, including dryness, flaking, redness, lumps, or signs of parasites. Ears are checked for odor or buildup that could indicate an early infection. Nails are examined for cracking, splitting, or abnormal growth. These observations can be the first sign that a veterinary appointment is needed.
Because we are located within a full-service veterinary hospital, any concern noticed during grooming can be escalated to our medical team on the same visit. That level of continuity between grooming and veterinary care is something most standalone grooming salons simply cannot offer.
We recommend combining regular grooming visits with your pet's routine wellness exams to give your pet the most comprehensive care possible throughout the year.
