A grooming van usually needs a parking space close to your home. A mobile groom often costs a little more than a salon, because the groomer travels and only works on one pet at a time.
Many mobile groomers work from a fitted van with its own water and power. Others groom inside your home and need a socket and a space to work. Ask how your groomer works when you book.
Make sure there's parking close to your door, especially for a grooming van. Take your dog out before the appointment and keep other pets in another room during the groom. That way the groomer has your dog's full attention, and everyone stays calm.
