What should customers tip their dog groomers?

Welcome to The Tail Feathers, your best friend when it comes to professional grooming - or 2nd best friend if we’re counting dogs 😂.

In this issue, let’s explore the art of tipping…

Making great tips is one of the keys to making the big bucks in this career.

Once you’ve become a good groomer and learned how to keep your clients happy, most of them will reward you with great tips.

Like any other service industry, the amount a customer tips a pet professional can vary widely. So many pet parents ask themselves, “how much should I tip the dog groomer??”

According to the national average, pet owners should tip their groomer 15 to 20 percent of the service total.

That seems reasonable and in line with standard tipping practices in the U.S. but just like pricing your grooms, there are so many variables that come into play.
