Hair Off The Dog is a one-on-one dog grooming service at 404 Stokes Valley Road in Stokes Valley, Lower Hutt. Each dog is groomed alone by a certified groomer. A full groom includes a warm bath with at least two washes, a hand blow dry, a nail trim, a full body clip, a pad trim and a face tidy. A groom for double-coated breeds adds a double shampoo, a conditioning treatment, a blow wave and a thorough brush to remove loose coat. A mini groom is offered too, but it is not suitable for long-haired double-coated breeds. A flea shampoo costs $20.00 as at 2026 and is added when needed. De-matting is charged at $1 a minute as at 2026.
Booking is made through the enquiry form or online. Payment is due on the day of the appointment, by cash or bank deposit, as the business does not take EFTPOS. Owners are asked to arrive no more than five minutes early and to collect the dog within 30 minutes of the reminder text. Daycare is not offered, and the groomer may refuse a dog that cannot be groomed safely. Photos of groomed dogs may appear on the website or social media. It suits owners who want their dog groomed on its own.
