  • Hair Clipping & Trimming: Breed-specific styles or practical trims for comfort and hygiene
  • Nail Trimming: Helps maintain paw health and posture
  • Ear Cleaning: Prevents buildup and reduces the risk of ear infections

Why Choose Our Veterinary Grooming Salon?

Unlike stand-alone grooming salons, our team includes experienced veterinary staff who can identify and report any skin conditions, lumps, or other concerns during grooming. We’re proud to offer canine grooming in Hershey that supports your pet’s health as well as their appearance.

We’re also a great fit for more sensitive pets. Being located inside a veterinary hospital allows us to provide a calm, low-stress environment, perfect for anxious animals or pets with special medical needs.

FAQ: Grooming Services

Can I bring my puppy for grooming?

Absolutely. We specialize in gentle, stress-free puppy grooming in Hershey, helping young pets adjust to grooming from an early age.

Are grooming services available to non-clients?

Yes, grooming services at Hershey Veterinary Hospital are available to the public. However, proof of current Rabies, Bordetella, Distemper, and Parvovirus vaccinations is required for new clients bringing dogs for grooming.

If your pet’s vaccinations are not current at the time of the appointment, Dr. Schengrund can administer the necessary vaccines during the visit.

For anesthetic cat grooming, vaccinations for FVRCP and Rabies must be current as well, and can also be updated at the appointment if needed.

This vaccination policy helps us maintain a safe environment for all pets in our care.

What makes your dog grooming different?

The professional dog groomers in Hershey Veterinary Hospital work within our full-service veterinary hospital, allowing for added peace of mind during every grooming appointment. If a skin issue, parasite, or lump is noticed during grooming, our medical team is on-site to provide a prompt evaluation or recommendation.
