Salt Lake City pet owners have access to a wide range of grooming options — from high-volume neighborhood salons in Sugar House and 9th & 9th to mobile groomers serving Holladay, Cottonwood Heights, and the Avenues. The best groomers in SLC handle double-coated breeds (huskies, golden retrievers, corgis) common in Utah's mountain climate, offer de-shedding treatments before the spring blowout, and maintain Fear Free or low-stress handling certifications. Pricing ranges from about $45 for a small-breed bath-and-tidy to $150+ for a full hand-scissor on a doodle. Use the listings below to compare reviews, neighborhoods, and specialties before booking.
Our verified reviews help you find groomers who are gentle with anxious pets, skilled with all breeds, and transparent about pricing. Look for certified professionals with Fear Free credentials for the best experience.

Most SLC groomers charge $45–$80 for small breeds (under 25 lbs), $70–$110 for medium breeds, and $100–$160+ for large or doodle-coated breeds. Mobile grooming typically adds $20–$40 over salon pricing. De-shedding treatments and de-matting services are usually billed in 15-minute increments on top of the base groom.
Most Salt Lake City vets recommend a full groom every 4–8 weeks for double-coated breeds and 6–10 weeks for short-haired dogs. Spring and fall are peak shedding seasons here — booking a de-shedding treatment in March and again in October dramatically reduces shed inside the home.
Fear Free is a certification program that trains groomers to recognize stress signals and use low-pressure handling, sedation-free anxiety techniques, and breaks during long appointments. Several Salt Lake City salons employ Fear Free certified staff — look for the badge on individual listings.
Mobile groomers are popular for senior dogs, anxious pets, multi-dog households, and homes far from a salon. Expect a $20–$40 premium per groom but you save the round-trip drive and your dog avoids the kennel environment. Most SLC mobile groomers serve Holladay, Cottonwood Heights, Sandy, and Draper on regular routes.
