K9 Design: We are your local dog groomers here in Tacoma WA. Below mentions about how we operate and some of our salon policies. Please note that we have our full policy posted at our front desk. Read carefully and let us know if we can answer any questions that you may have.
What To Expect Before and During Your Dogs’ Visit:
We require at least 4 hours per dog (even for small chihuahua’s). This ensures that each dog gets their appropriate breaks and quality attention from each employee during their stay.
Unfortunately, we are a NO MUZZLE FACILITY and do not accept dogs that may show aggression in any form. Alongside aggression, we do not accept dogs that may be a high risk to injury due to lack of cooperation. This includes, basic handling in order to complete the groom, excessive wiggling, nipping due to brushing or grooming, non-tolerance to the blow dryer and nail trimming. If nail trimming is the only concern we would be more than happy to either exclude this service or provide 2 groomers (unless safety is a concern). Our top priorities are always the safety, happiness and stress levels for everyone: clients, employees and of course, our beloved pets. Proof of vaccinations are required in order to provide any service.
Once your dog has completed their rotation we will inform you by call or text. We ask that you please wait for our phone call before arriving to pick up. This ensures that your dog is ready. When you come to pick up, we encourage all clients to converse with us about how your pups’ day went! This would also be the time to reschedule your appointment. Here at K9 Design Grooming Salon we really do love treating your pup to a spa day! We can’t wait to see you and your precious pup!
ATTENTION NEW CLIENTS: Please have your dogs vaccination records ready. We do require them before we service your K9. You may bring them the day of your appointment or email it to k9designgroomingsalon@gmail.com. Thank you!

K9 Design Salon Policies
Emergency Events
In the case of an emergency event, I (the pet owner) authorize K9 Design Grooming Salon to seek immediate veterinarian care for the well-being and safety of my pet and at my expense. I understand all effort will be made to ensure my pet is cared for and attended to promptly and in an educated and experienced manner. I understand all effort will be made to contact me should such an emergency event take place.
Pet Health & Personality
I understand grooming can cause stress in some pets and I will inform my groomer of any heart, stress related conditions or personality prior to being groomed. I understand it is necessary to have my pet’s vaccinations completely up to date prior to being received for grooming. If you need to submit electronic proof of vaccination to us, you can do so at k9designgroomingsalon@gmail.com
Pet Coat Condition
I understand grooming can cause stress in some pets and I will inform my groomer of any heart, stress related conditions or personality prior to being groomed. I understand it is necessary to have my pet’s vaccinations completely up to date prior to being received for grooming.
Standard Cancellations
K9 Design Grooming Salon requires at least a 24-hour notice prior to requesting a change in appointment time or to cancel a scheduled appointment. This is a matter of courtesy to your groomers and so the appointment time can be made available to another client on the waiting list. If two (2) appointments are missed without the proper notice, said clients will be required to prepay for services prior to future appointment scheduling
Holiday Cancellations
When booking for the week of & week prior to federal holidays, extra cancellation policies apply. K9 Design will require all clients’ payment card information be provided at time of booking and kept on file. (Full card information is securely stored and encrypted, even from us, for security and privacy.) If you need to cancel or reschedule, we require a full day notice prior to the date / time of your scheduled service. This is due to holiday season busyness and in courtesy to your groomers and clients on the waiting list. We cannot accept a cancellation or reschedule without proper notice. For example, if you are set for Wednesday at 3pm, call us no later than Tuesday prior to closing: 6pm. We cannot accept a cancellation after hours by voicemail that may not be received until the following morning. If the proper full day notice is not given, we will have to charge the full price of the missed service. This is due to high demand in the season and as it leaves us unable to fill your appointment spot with someone else on the waiting list.
