How much do you TIP your groomer?
|
|
| I really think it's whatever you are comfortable with giving after you see your dogs. I know what a task it is to groom OES' (as we all do), and I KNOW they'd spend more time brushing my dog out than any other dog (purely due to size and length of hair), so I would take that into account.
If it was $100, most likely ...my husband and I would both tip about $20. If it was a shave down/clipping that cost $50, I would tip $10. |
| Pooh usually costs me $55
This time it was cheaper cause she gave me her %20 employee discount. I have normally given $10 but this last time I gave her $20. |
| Mine works for himself out of a little dog boutique where he is the only groomer and he sets his own prices. So I don't tip -- just like I don't tip the hairstylist if he/she is the owner of the salon. |
| I tip 25% as long as I like what they've done. I usually take Lucy and Clyde and I know Clyde is a lot harder than Lucy-- both in grooming and attitude! 25% ensures that they're properly compensated no matter what a terror he is. |
| Jill, look at that face, how could Clyde be a terror?
I also tip 25% because then you get a throughly dry dog back  |
| If you groom your own dog, why dont you get a tip from your spouse???
Like a pair of shoes or something?????? |
I always ask for a full back massage after grooming our dog. |
Yeah, Billy says why bother grooming the dogs when I can bring the dogs down to his sister and she will do it for free... Umm he forgets to add in gas money. That would be around $40... So I do it  and I am getting better each time. I would like a tip..especially after doing Peanut who bites 
When I did have a groomer they were always the owners of the places. I never tipped them Elissa |
| Thanks, guys for all the "tips." Bonnie did a great job on Maggie last week. This Tuesday Barney get's his initial cleanup. Then its monthly for both of them thereafter. I admire you people who do your own grooming, especially if you're working full time or raising a family. |

| I usually got around $5 for tips, $1-2 for the weekly baths that come in.
My biggest was $250 from someone that came in every single week as a "Christmas bonus". I was the only other person her cat liked, and I used to pet sit for her all the time also. Even after I quit my job there, I still went to her house to bathe her cat for her, lol I miss that cat (she passed away), but I still talk to the owner on occasion.  |
| I owned my own dog groomng bussiness for 4 years.
Most people would toss in an extra $10 for a $ 55 hair cut. Now that I'm only grooming Daisy, my tips are the kisses from her. Much less stress and a whole lot more rewarding. |
