Malvern Vet Hospital has one of the best dog groomers in the business working at our vet clinic and is recognised for providing beautiful results. Dogs can be dropped at our veterinary clinic from around 8.30am and will be ready to return home by early afternoon. With over five decades of experience, you can ensure your dog will be pampered by a professional vet clinic.

As our dog grooming services are in such high demand, spaces are limited and bookings are essential. Standing appointment slots are limited but recommended when available.

Cat Grooming

Cats are generally groomed under sedation supervised by a vet and a vet nurse. Brush outs, knot removal and lion clips are the most commonly requested grooms.
