Question 1

Where do the grooming sessions take place?

Accepted Answer

All grooming is done inside your home — right where your pet feels the safest and most comfortable. This is a fear-free grooming technique that helps reduce stress and anxiety for pets, especially those sensitive to travel, loud environments, or unfamiliar spaces.

Question 2

Do you have a grooming van or mobile salon?

Accepted Answer

No, D'yana does not use a mobile grooming van. Instead, she brings all her tools and supplies into your home or apartment's dog wash station, creating a calm, familiar environment for your pet.

Question 3

What do I need to provide?

Accepted Answer

All you need to provide is access to a wash area (such as a sink, bathtub, walk-in shower, or building dog wash station), electricity, and running water. D'yana will handle the rest, including thorough cleanup after the appointment.

Question 4

How often should my pet be groomed?

Accepted Answer

For most dogs and cats, grooming every 4–8 weeks is ideal to maintain coat health, prevent matting, and keep nails trimmed. Breeds with longer coats or special needs may require more frequent visits.

Question 5

What if my pet is anxious or fearful?

Accepted Answer

D'yana specializes in working with higher-anxiety pets and uses gentle, low-stress handling techniques. Her 18+ years as a veterinary technician mean she knows how to keep pets comfortable and calm throughout the grooming process.

Yes! D'yana is experienced with both cats and dogs, including senior pets and those with medical or behavioral considerations.
