How do you find a dog groomer in Norway?

Grooming salons in pet shops, what they offer and what it costs.

Answered at: Checked at:

Short answer

You can book a dog groomer online through pet shop chains such as Musti and PetXL, which offer bathing, clipping and nail trimming in their grooming salons. Musti lists a bath from NOK 899 and a short clip from NOK 1,299, while a nail trim at PetXL costs NOK 199. Musti says breed, habits and extra treatments affect the price.

Why

  1. Musti says it has Spa & Velvære grooming salons linked to more and more of its shops, and treatments are booked on its website.
  2. Musti's indicative prices start at NOK 899 for a bath, NOK 1,199 for a full shave, NOK 1,299 for a short clip and NOK 1,399 for a breed-standard clip, all with nail trimming included.
  3. PetXL offers bathing, clipping, puppy clipping, nail trimming, ear cleaning and hand-stripping, booked online, and charges 60 percent of the booked time for appointments not cancelled at least 24 hours ahead.

Details

PetXL sells a card for 10 nail trims at NOK 1,399 and shows its other prices on its booking page. Musti offers short sessions from NOK 199 for puppies and dogs that need to get used to the salon. Vet clinics can also trim nails: at Evidensia Lambertseter in Oslo, a simple nail trim without sedation costs NOK 498.

Tip

If your dog has not been groomed before, book a short introduction session first, so it gets used to the salon before a full clip.

What may differ

For cats, PetXL says some of its salons also trim claws and wash and clip cats.
