How often should my petโs nails be trimmed?
Dogs usually need trims every 3โ4 weeks, cats every 10โ14 days, and small pets like rabbits or guinea pigs need regular maintenance to prevent overgrowth and discomfort.
Can nail trimming at home be safer than the groomer or vet?
Yes! In-home nail trims keep your pet in a familiar environment, reducing anxiety and stress while allowing professional caregivers to handle nails safely.
What happens if I donโt trim my petโs nails regularly?
Overgrown nails can cause pain, posture issues, slipping, joint strain, and even arthritis. Long nails can curl into the paw, causing wounds or infections.
Do you trim nails for all types of pets?
We trim dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, and other small pets as needed. Each nail trim is customized to your petโs size, temperament, and comfort level.
What if my pet is anxious or uncooperative?
Our trained caregivers know how to work gently with nervous or squirmy pets. For very difficult cases, a second caregiver may assist for safety, with prior notice if extra fees apply.
How long does an in-home nail trim take?
Most nail trims are about 15 minutes, but anxious or uncooperative pets may take longer. Our caregivers work calmly to ensure safety and comfort, not speed.
