Where you groom

How grooming works on Petme in Anchorage

You decide where each session happens in Anchorage. Groom at your own place, travel to owners' homes around Spenard, Turnagain and South Addition, or offer both and let the owner pick on each request.

At your place

Owners bring the pet to you. The address is not part of the request: it is shared in chat, the same way it works for drop-in visits in Anchorage.

At the owner's home

Travel to the pet with your kit. You set a home-visit radius of 3, 5, 10 or 20 km, whether you work the stretch from Spenard to the Hillside or stay near Spenard.

Dogs you will meet in Anchorage

Owners in Anchorage often keep Alaskan Husky, Siberian Husky and Labrador Retriever. Price your full groom for each dog size, and send a custom offer before payment when a coat needs more work than the request suggested.
