Holiday Ready: How to Prep Your Pet for the Season’s Festivities

The holidays are just around the corner which means lights, guests, cozy nights in, and plenty of photo ops. But while you’re planning your menus, decorating your home, and booking family photos, don’t forget to get your pet holiday ready, too.

We know how busy this season can get. That’s why we’re here to help you prep your pet with expert grooming that keeps them looking, smelling, and feeling their absolute best for all the festivities.

Why Holiday Grooming Matters

The holidays bring a lot of extra attention to your home and your pets. Whether you're hosting guests, traveling, or taking family photos, your furry friend is part of the celebration. A professional grooming appointment ensures they’re clean, fresh, and festive without any last-minute stress.

The bonus is a clean pet also means a cleaner home during a season filled with visitors and cozy couch time.

1. Book Early Because Appointments Fill Fast

The holidays are one of the busiest times of year for grooming salons. If you want your pet to look their best for Thanksgiving, holiday cards, or New Year’s, do not wait until the last minute.

2. Winter Coat Care is Essential

Cooler weather does not mean you should skip grooming. In fact, winter coats need even more attention to prevent matting, shedding, and dry skin. A well-brushed and trimmed coat helps your pet stay insulated without collecting tangles, snow, or debris.

3. Treat Dry Skin and Paws

Heaters, cold air, and frequent indoor lounging can all lead to dry, flaky skin and cracked paw pads. Our soothing, moisturizing grooming treatments help combat seasonal dryness and restore comfort.

4. Nail Trims and Fresh Breath Go a Long Way

Between house guests and holiday snuggles, your pet will be getting a lot of attention.

• Nail trims prevent scratching furniture or visitors

• Teeth brushing and breath freshening make those up-close moments more enjoyable

• Ear cleaning helps reduce odor and keeps infections at bay during a time when pets are indoors more often

  
  

5. Add a Festive Touch the Safe Way

Let your groomer know if you’d like your pet to leave looking extra festive!
