Proudly offering Manhattan small dog grooming, Manhattan pet massage and Manhattan pet stylist services! Staten Island and Brooklyn too!
Because each dog is different, the price of a grooming session will vary based on his or her size, hair type, temperament and the condition of the coat. I’m happy to provide an estimate over the phone, with a final price determined when I meet your pet.
To ensure your dog’s safety, please advise me of any pre-existing medical conditions, allergies or health issues. Current vaccinations are required for all dogs. If there is any information you can present to me about your dog so that I can make his or her first grooming experience with me a positive one, please let me know.
For a full explanation of my grooming policies, please refer to the Grooming Agreement at the end of this page.

- Teeth Brushing (Non-Scaling) - $ 5.00
- Shed-Less Treatment - $15.00
- Spa Bath Treatment - $15.00
* Please note that DE-MATTING IS EXTRA - De-matting a neglected coat can be painful and time-consuming, causing irritation to the skin from over-brushing. After de-matting, many dogs become frightened of the groomer. I enjoy grooming and want the dogs I groom to enjoy it too; if your dog has more than a few small mats, I may suggest a short trim as a more comfortable solution. The coat will grow back before you know it and you will spare your dog the discomfort of de-matting. Dogs with severe matting that require a short cut, may incur an additional fee above the price of grooming, based on the time it takes to complete the cut.
Ala Carte Options

Pet Caress Massage* $30
* Pet massage is available as part of the grooming experience or as a stand-alone service. Pet massage is a wonderful way to indulge your pet and contribute to his or her health and well-being. Among the many benefits of pet massage are:
- Helping puppies with socialization and training
- Reducing the pain of degenerative disorders, stiffness and muscle cramping in older or arthritic dogs
- Helping calm your pet before surgery or veterinarian’s visits
- Helping promote healing and releasing toxins in the body
- Calming and relaxing the nervous systems, improving circulation and mobility
Tracey’s Pampered Pups (TPP) Grooming Agreement
All dogs are required to be vaccinated and proof from your veterinarian of vaccinations must be shown in order to be groomed. The health of the dogs in TPP’s care is our number one priority. To that end, TPP requires that all dogs be current on the following vaccinations:
- Rabies
- Distemper
- Parvo
- Bordetella
Please note that for puppies this means that your puppy must be at least 16 weeks of age and up to date with their current series of vaccines which would include Bordetella and 2 rounds of puppy shots.
Tracey’s Pampered Pups provides small dog grooming services by appointment only in order to provide individualized attention to every dog. Please call ahead to schedule an appointment.
TPP will do whatever is appropriate for the well-being of your dog. However, if the services of a veterinarian are required, I will assume that the owner extends permission for treatment.
In the event of severe matted/tangled/knotted hair, your dog may need to be shaved down. If the dog has minimal matting, the dog will be brushed out for an extra fee. I will do my best to determine the appropriate cut needed if your dog is matted. If I determine after you leave your dog that it is necessary to shave his or her coat because the matting is too severe, I will contact you so that you can decide if you want me to proceed or you would like to pick up your dog without service.
TPP will not be held liable for whatever is uncovered on a badly neglected coat, or irritation caused by shaving short due to matting or lack of grooming. Removing a heavily matted coat includes risks of nicks, cuts or abrasions due to skin conditions such as warts, moles or skin folds trapped in the mats. Heavy matting also can trap moisture near the pet's skin allowing mold, fungus or bacteria to grow, causing skin irritations that exist prior to the grooming process. After-effects of mat removal procedures can include itchiness, skin redness, self-inflicted irritations or abrasions and failure of the hair to re-grow. TPP is not responsible in the event of adverse effects of mat removal. You should also understand that your pet may exhibit brief behavioral changes as a result of shaving.
Regular dog grooming should be done every 2 months and maintained at home between visits. Owners can pre-book their dog's next appointment prior to leaving any appointment.
In the event you cannot make your appointment, please call to cancel/reschedule a minimum of 24 hours in advance.
TPP must be informed if your dog has bitten, or is aggressive. I reserve the right to refuse any dog who is deemed uncontrollable, vicious or infirmed. Dogs that are uncontrollable will be sent home. Prorated charges may apply.
Grooming procedures sometimes can be stressful, especially for a senior dog or dog with health problems, and can expose hidden medical conditions or aggravate existing ones during or after the grooming. Because senior dogs and dogs with health problems have a greater chance of injury, these pets will be groomed for cleanliness and comfort, in styles that will not add to their stress. At my discretion, the owner may be asked to remain with their dog through the grooming process to limit anxiety.
TPP is a flea-free environment. To remain flea-free, all dogs scheduled for grooming must be on a flea and tick preventative.
Please make sure your dog has relieved itself prior to grooming. Please respect my property as well as the neighbors when bringing your dog to be groomed. Stoop and Scoop is the law, please bring bags.
All dogs must be collared and leashed when coming to be groomed.
TPP may from time to time take pictures of your dog and use them on the website or for advertising purposes. If you do not wish your dog to be used in this capacity, please inform me at your grooming session.
I will call you when your dog is finished and ready to be picked up. Payment in full is due at that time. All grooming fees must be paid by cash or check at the time services are rendered. Checks returned due to insufficient funds will be subject to a $35 returned check fee.
