Dog Grooming Packages

Each dog grooming session includes a relaxing bath and massage, blow-dry, nail trimming and buffing, ear cleaning, thorough brush-out, a light trim around the face, feet, and sanitary area, and a refreshing spritz of cologne upon request. Learn more about our dog grooming process here.

Basic package -> light hair trim

Complete package -> full haircut

Does your pet needs more than a light trim but less than a full haircut? We’re got you covered! Your pet will receive our Basic grooming package with an “extra scissoring” add-on (cheaper than a full haircut).

Dog Grooming Add-ons

Looking for a little something extra for your pet? The following services are available at our Chagrin Falls salon as add-ons to a dog grooming package. 

Our enzymatic toothpaste helps remove plaque, fight bad odors and prevent tartar buildup.

Good oral hygiene is essential for a fresh and healthy mouth. Our enzymatic toothpaste is designed to target plaque and tartar, while also freshening breath and supporting overall dental health. Adding a tooth brushing session to your dog’s grooming routine can give their oral care an extra boost.

While tooth brushing during grooming helps, we highly recommend brushing your pet’s teeth at home for even better results and long-lasting oral health.

Please note: This service is not available as a stand-alone offering and must be added to either a Basic or Complete Grooming Package.

Our Anal Gland Expression service is available on an as-needed basis to help maintain your pet’s comfort. We only perform external expression, which is a gentle, non-invasive technique that can assist with gland maintenance. Some dogs, especially smaller breeds, may need occasional help with this, while many can express their glands naturally.

This service is not included in our grooming packages, as not all dogs require it routinely. If internal expression is necessary, we recommend consulting your veterinarian for the proper care.

Please note: this service is an add-on and must be purchased in conjunction with either a Basic or Complete grooming package. It is not available as a stand-alone service.

Save with our bundled service of tooth brushing and anal gland expression during the same visit.

Tooth brushing helps maintain your pet’s dental health, while anal gland expression targets other important wellness needs. For details on each service, please refer to the descriptions above.

Please note: this bundle is not available as a stand-alone service and must be added to either a Basic or Complete grooming package.

Add extra trimming to your Basic Grooming Package with our “Extra Scissoring” add-on. This service goes beyond the light trim of the face, feet, and sanitary areas included in the Basic Package, offering additional trimming for areas like the chest, belly, tail and legs.

For breeds that require more detailed sculpting, like Pomeranians or Golden Retrievers, this add-on ensures your pet’s specific grooming needs are met.

Please note: In most cases, extra scissoring is not available as a stand-alone service and must be added to a Basic Grooming Package, though we can do a sanitary trim or face trim (corners of the eyes on breeds like Shi Tzus, bichons, or doodles for example) or a visor trim (bangs) separately without a full package.

A cleansing treatment designed to soothe dry skin and alleviate skin allergies.

Treat your pet to the ultimate skin-soothing experience with our Skin & Coat Detox with Nexderma— a gentle, vet-trusted system that calms irritation and brings out a healthy, shiny coat. Using Silvet Herbal Shampoo and Moisturizing Hydrocortisone Conditioner with nano-silver technology, this upgrade helps fight bacteria, yeast, and inflammation while hydrating sensitive skin. Better yet, this add-on service is available to cats and dogs!

Note: This is not available as a stand-alone service and must be purchased as an addition to either a basic or complete grooming package.

A three-step bathing process with extra brushing and carding to reduce shedding.

This treatment can reduce shedding by over 50%! It begins with conditioning, followed by shampooing and then another round of conditioning. Each step uses more shampoo, conditioner and water than a typical bath to ensure deep moisture and loosen the dead undercoat.

Afterward, your pet will undergo a blow-dry session combined with brushing to further eliminate excess hair. Once dry, our we use specialized tools to reduce hair buildup, leaving your pet with less shedding.

Please note: shedding may temporarily increase after the Deshed Treatment as loosened hair follicles are released, but it will subside within 24-48 hours.

Our non-toxic flea shampoo kills fleas on contact and is required if your pet has fleas.

Fleas can be a nuisance, causing discomfort for your pet and potentially infesting your home if left untreated. If fleas are found during your pet’s grooming appointment, this add-on service will be applied. Our safe, non-toxic flea shampoo eliminates fleas on contact, offering quick relief without harmful chemicals.

Please note: this service is not available as a stand-alone option and must be added to either a Basic or Complete Grooming Package.

Hair chalking is a pet-safe way to give your furry friend a fun, colorful makeover with simple designs. These temporary designs can be easily removed with a wash or a wipe using a damp towel. It’s a great option for adding some festive flair during the holidays!

Add a pop of vibrant color to your dog’s nails with our nail polish add-on service.

We offer a variety of fun shades to choose from, and we always use pet-safe nail polish to ensure your dog’s safety and well-being. After the grooming session is complete, our stylist carefully applies the polish and gives your pet time to dry.

Walk-in Nail Trims for Dogs & Cats

We don’t just shorten your dog’s nails; we’re proud that every nail trim we perform includes nail buffing, a process that smooths rough edges and reduces the risk of splitting.

Grooming services are available by appointment only, but we gladly welcome walk-ins for dog nail trims. If bringing your pet in the afternoon, we recommend calling ahead to ensure groomers have not yet left for the day.

Cat Grooming

Regular grooming is essential for your cat’s overall health and well-being. It helps prevent matting, reduces shedding, and keeps their coat soft and shiny. Grooming also supports your cat’s hygiene by preventing hairballs and skin issues, while giving you a chance to detect early signs of health problems like lumps, bumps or irritations. 

Smoochie Pooch cat groomers use a gentle approach to keep cats comfortable and relaxed, and utilize high-quality tools and techniques tailored to your cat’s specific coat type. 

We offer both basic and complete grooming packages for cats. Learn more about our cat grooming services.

Veronica K.
"This place is great! My family has brought our two dogs (two different coat types) here for years and we've always been extremely happy with their cuts and care! They always do a great job and are awesome at taking feedback and making sure the cut is exactly what their looking for. Plus, the staff is super nice and friendly! Our dog's looking handsome as ever!"
Lisa B.
"The staff goes out of their way to help our furry friends be their best. One of our dogs is a long haired shepherd, is getting older, but loves to be outside in the cold. She tends to be difficult to groom because of her long hair. The staff did a great job and did their best to make everyone happy."
Rebecca M.
"This place is great! They do a great job grooming my dogs and it’s obvious that they love the animals that come in."
Robert D.
"They really take good care of my dog Tank. He’s really big and has bad arthritis in his hind legs, yet they still manage to get him in the bath tub. He always comes home smelling great and with a big smile on his face. I highly recommend these guys. They are also very accommodating."

Frequently Asked Questions

Before each appointment, we take the time to discuss your preferences and your pet’s unique needs to ensure they get a grooming experience you’ll both be happy with. Please allow 2-3 hours for each session, so we can give your pet the attention and gentle care they deserve.

While we strive to complete all grooming within three hours, larger dogs or those with matted coats may require a bit more time to ensure they are comfortable and safe.

As each grooming appointment is customized to your pet’s unique needs, the price can vary based on several factors. Give us a call at (440) 543-2443 to tell us about your pet, including their breed, size, age, and the services you’re interested in. We’ll provide an estimated quote, but please note that the final price may adjust after we assess your pet in person during the appointment.

Call for a Free Quote

Every pet receives individualized care and attention. To ensure your pet’s safety and well-being, we keep all dogs separated unless a family brings in multiple pets during the same visit.

  • We recommend walking your dog before their appointment to help them release energy and use the bathroom.
  • If your pet takes anxiety medication, inform the groomer right away. Ensure it’s administered at the proper time so it lasts throughout the grooming session.
  • Bring your pet on a leash and your cat in a carrier.
  • Prepare to arrive on time to your appointment. Arriving late can result in rushed services and can incur a late fee or appointment cancellation.
