Hiring a dog groomer in Colac Otway: what to check

Before you book. Dog grooming generally doesn’t need a specific trade licence, so ask about the groomer’s experience and training, how they handle nervous or older dogs, and whether they hold public liability insurance. Local council rules can apply to home-based and mobile businesses.
  • Ask about the groomer’s experience with your dog’s breed and coat type.
  • Ask what’s included (wash, clip, nails, ears) and get the price up front.
  • Tell them about any health issues, matting or anxiety before the appointment.
  • Ask whether they hold public liability insurance.
  • Check the ABN on the ABN Lookup website.
  • For mobile grooming, check what power and water access they need.
