Our grooming van: a complete salon, parked at your door

  • Own water and power on board, nothing needed from your home
  • Air-conditioned grooming area, salon-standard equipment
  • One pet, one groomer, no cages and no waiting animals
  • Cleaned and disinfected after every single groom

The vans and the people

The vans, and the people inside them

Our own photographs from real visits in Dubai. This is the van that parks outside your home, and the groomers your pet will actually meet.

What is inside the grooming van

People imagine a car boot with a brush in it. It is not that. Each van is fitted out the way a fixed salon is, just smaller and closer to your home:

  • A professional grooming table, so pets of every size are handled safely
  • A warm-water tub with its own fresh water tank
  • Professional dryers, clippers and breed-specific tools
  • Full air conditioning, running for the whole session
  • Its own power supply, so we never plug into your home

Why the van is easier on a pet than a salon visit

The hardest part of grooming is usually not the groom. It is the car ride, the waiting room, the barking, and the cage your pet sits in between the wash and pick-up. The van removes all four. Your pet is never caged, never waits, and never leaves your street.

It also means one groomer gives your pet their full attention from start to finish. Most sessions take 45 to 90 minutes, and you are a few steps away the whole time.

What the grooming van needs from you

A parking space within reach of your door, and somebody at home to hand the pet over and take it back. That is all. The van brings its own power and its own hot water.

What happens when the grooming van arrives

Message us

Tell us your pet, your area and roughly when suits you. We reply with the exact price and the slots we have. No forms, no waiting for a call back.

We come to you

Our air-conditioned van parks outside your building or on your driveway. We come to your door and collect your pet. You do not have to drive anywhere.

One pet, one groomer

Your pet has the van, and the groomer, entirely to itself. No cages, no waiting, no other animals barking. Most sessions take 45 to 90 minutes, depending on the groom.

Back to you, clean and calm

We bring your pet back to your door and tell you honestly what we found: skin, ears, nails, matting. Then you pay by card or cash at the van.

Questions about the van

Do you need water or electricity from my home?

No. The van carries its own fresh water tank and its own power. We arrive, groom and leave without plugging anything in or filling anything up. Nothing is needed from your home.

Where does the van park?

On your driveway, outside your villa, or in a visitor space at your building. The van is no longer than a large 4x4, so a normal parking bay or a driveway is enough. If parking at your building is tricky, tell us on WhatsApp and we will plan it before we arrive.

Is the van air-conditioned?

Yes, fully. The grooming area is air-conditioned like a salon, which matters in Dubai for most of the year. Your pet is never groomed in the heat.

Does my pet stay in the van alone?

Never alone in a cage. One groomer works with one pet from start to finish. There are no kennels and no other animals waiting. Most sessions take 45 to 90 minutes, and your pet is brought straight back to your door.

Is a van groom more expensive than a salon?

No. Our prices start at AED 170 for dogs and AED 190 for cats, including VAT, and there is no call-out fee, no travel charge and no parking charge. The price you see on our pricing page is the full price.

How is the van cleaned between pets?

The table, tub and tools are cleaned and disinfected after every single groom, and towels are changed for every pet. A cat is never groomed straight after a dog without a full clean-down.
