Mobile Pet Grooming Pricing Calculator

Mobile dog groomers typically charge $75 to $150 per dog depending on size and coat type, plus a convenience fee of $10 to $25 for the mobile service. Small dogs with short coats start around $55 to $75. Large dogs with long or double coats run $100 to $130. Doodle breeds of any size command a premium due to the extra dematting and styling time. Add-on services like de-shedding, teeth brushing, and nail grinding add $8 to $25 per service.

A convenience fee, also called a mobile fee or travel fee, covers the cost and value of the groomer coming to the client's location rather than the client driving to a salon. Most mobile groomers charge $10 to $25 per visit. The fee helps offset fuel, van maintenance, and the time spent driving between appointments.

Most mobile groomers complete 5 to 8 dogs per day depending on coat type and appointment length. A full groom on a small short-coated dog takes about 45 minutes. A large doodle may take 2 to 3 hours. Groomers who focus on small or short-coated dogs can see 8 or more per day; those who specialize in large or double-coated breeds typically see 4 to 6.

Doodle breeds require significantly more time than other dogs of the same size due to their dense, curly coats that mat easily. Charge at the top of your size bracket at minimum, and add a surcharge of $20 to $40 for heavy matting. A medium doodle that takes 2 to 2.5 hours should be priced at $90 to $115. Be transparent with clients that price increases with coat condition.
