This guide is part of Terris Recommends, my researched, hands-on picks of the best local businesses and services in Singapore. Every recommendation is researched and ranked by me.

See all recommendations

Pet ownership in Singapore grew by 8% between 2020 and 2023, and one in seven households now has at least one furry (or feathery) family member. With that growth has come an explosion of pet grooming salons in Singapore, ranging from neighbourhood shops that have been trimming poodles since before you were born, to sleek new studios with cage-free policies and organic shampoos.

The problem is not finding a groomer. It is finding the right one. A nervous rescue dog needs a completely different experience from a show-standard Bichon Frise. A Persian cat with matting issues needs a groomer who specialises in feline handling, not one who treats cats as an afterthought. And every pet owner I have spoken to has the same fear: handing their pet over to a stranger and hoping for the best.

I researched over 20 grooming salons across Singapore for this list, checking groomer certifications, reading hundreds of Google and Facebook reviews, verifying current pricing, and confirming each salon is actively operating in 2026. Every salon below is tagged with a "best for" label because no single groomer is right for every pet. Whether you need budget-friendly basics, low-stress handling for an anxious dog, or a premium spa day for your pampered pup, there is a salon here that fits.

Key Takeaways

  1. 1 Pet ownership in Singapore grew 8% between 2020 and 2023, and one in seven households now has at least one pet.
  2. 2 Grooming runs S$40 to S$250 a session depending on size, breed and coat condition. Basic grooming covers bath, nails, ears and a sanitary trim; a full groom adds the haircut and styling.
  3. 3 The Grooming Table is the pick for anxious, reactive or special-needs pets who need a low-stress session, with a full groom from S$75 for a small dog.
  4. 4 Pawpy Kisses includes free pick-up and drop-off, OLO is the cage-free social option from S$50, and The Blep Club is the choice for sensitive skin and natural products. Jump to The Blep Club, best for natural products and transparency
  5. 5 The Pets Workshop handles dogs, cats, rabbits and guinea pigs in separate areas, which is what a multi-pet household actually needs. Jump to The Pets Workshop, best for families with dogs and cats

What to look for in a pet grooming salon

Before the list, a few things worth knowing. Singapore does not have a mandatory licensing framework specifically for pet groomers, which means quality varies enormously. The Singapore Kennel Club (SKC) runs the most widely recognised certification programme, and salons that hold SKC-appointed status have met baseline standards for hygiene, equipment, and groomer competency. Low Stress Handling certification is another credential worth looking for, particularly if your pet is anxious or reactive.

Here is what I check before recommending any grooming salon:

  • Groomer certifications: SKC certification, Low Stress Handling certification, or equivalent professional training. Self-taught groomers can be excellent, but verified credentials reduce risk
  • Handling approach: does the salon use cages or cage-free environments? Do they offer updates (photos, videos) during the session? How do they handle anxious or aggressive pets?
  • Hygiene standards: clean premises, sterilised equipment between pets, and separate areas for dogs and cats (cats are easily stressed by barking dogs)
  • Pricing transparency: good salons publish price guides or give clear quotes before the session. If a groomer cannot tell you what a basic groom costs, treat that as a warning sign
  • Range of animals: some salons only handle dogs. If you have cats, rabbits, or guinea pigs, confirm they have experience with your pet type

With that framework, here are the 10 salons I would recommend.

1. The Grooming Table, best for anxious or reactive pets

If your pet dreads grooming sessions, The Grooming Table should be your first call. Operating since 2012, this Lengkok Bahru salon is the only pet groomer in Singapore to be Low Stress Handling certified, a distinction that is not just marketing. It shapes everything about how they work: no rushing, no restraining, no groomer quotas, and no commission-driven upselling.

2. Pawpy Kisses, best for convenience with free transport

Getting a nervous or elderly pet to a grooming salon can be half the battle. Pawpy Kisses solves that problem entirely: they offer free transport for grooming appointments, picking your pet up and returning them home. For busy owners or pets that do not travel well, that single feature makes Pawpy Kisses worth considering before you look at anything else.

3. The Blep Club, best for natural products and transparency

The Blep Club started with a conviction that most pet grooming products contain ingredients no pet owner would choose if they knew what was in them. What began as a natural skincare line for pets grew into a full grooming salon, and that product-first philosophy still defines the experience. Every shampoo, conditioner, and balm used in sessions is 100% naturally derived and developed in-house.

Best for
pets with sensitive skin and owners who prefer natural, chemical-free grooming products.

4. OLO, best for cage-free grooming in a social environment

OLO built its entire model around one principle: no cages. Your dog is never locked in a kennel waiting for their turn or drying off post-bath. Instead, pets roam freely in a spacious play area where they can socialise with other dogs, and customers consistently describe the atmosphere as more like a playdate than a grooming appointment.

Best for
sociable dogs who thrive in a cage-free, interactive grooming environment.
Standout strength
fully cage-free model with free-roaming play area, SKC-certified groomers, and integrated dog daycare.

5. The Pets Workshop, best for families with dogs and cats

Starting from a single shopfront in Tampines Central in 2021, The Pets Workshop has expanded to three outlets (Tampines, Tampines Telepark, and Serangoon Nex) in just three years. That kind of growth in Singapore's competitive pet services market says something about the quality of the experience.

Best for
multi-pet households needing a salon that handles dogs, cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs with separate grooming areas.
Standout strength
SKC-appointed with dedicated separate areas for dogs and cats, three convenient outlets, and in-house grooming school.

6. The Grooming Angels, best for mobile house-call grooming

Not every pet can make it to a salon, and not every owner wants to deal with the logistics. The Grooming Angels has been offering house-call grooming across Singapore since 2018, bringing professional-grade grooming directly to your home. For elderly pets, post-surgery animals, or multi-pet households where transporting everyone is impractical, this is a genuine problem-solver.

Best for
pet owners who want professional grooming at home, especially for elderly, anxious, or post-surgery pets.
Standout strength
dual SKC and Low Stress Handling certification, 10+ years of experience, and island-wide house-call coverage.

If you want your Pomeranian to look like it just walked off the competition floor, Animal Arts Academy has the credentials to deliver. Established in 2006 and fully certified by the Singapore Kennel Club, AAA is not just a grooming salon; it is a grooming school whose graduates include competition-winning stylists. Their groomers regularly compete in grooming competitions both locally and internationally, and that level of skill shows in the precision of their breed-specific cuts.

Best for
pet owners who want breed-specific precision grooming or show-quality styling.

8. Likeable Pets, best for mobile cat grooming

Cats and car rides do not mix well. Likeable Pets understands this, which is why their mobile grooming service, operating island-wide since 2014, has become a go-to for cat owners who cannot face the drama of getting their feline into a carrier and across town. All groomers are certified with at least five years of professional experience, and the team has built a particularly strong reputation for gentle cat handling.

Best for
cat owners wanting gentle, experienced mobile grooming at home.
Standout strength
10+ years of mobile grooming experience, all groomers with 5+ years of professional training, and particularly strong cat handling reputation.

9. Pet Lovers Centre, best for accessible neighbourhood grooming

With over 70 shops across Singapore and 13 outlets offering grooming services, Pet Lovers Centre is the most accessible option on this list by a wide margin. Founded in 1973, PLC is not a specialist boutique groomer; it is a pet retail chain that also does grooming. And for straightforward, reliable grooming at a convenient location, that accessibility is the entire point.

Best for
budget-conscious pet owners wanting reliable grooming at a nearby neighbourhood outlet.
Standout strength
13 grooming outlets across Singapore, the most affordable pricing on this list, and 50+ years of operation.
Pricing

How much does pet grooming cost in Singapore?

Pet grooming in Singapore typically costs between S$40 and S$250 per session, depending on your pet's size, breed, coat condition, and the type of service. Basic grooming (bath, nail clipping, ear cleaning, sanitary trim) is cheaper than full grooming (which adds a full haircut, styling, and often a blow-dry).

Here are the typical price ranges as of 2026:

  • Basic dog grooming: S$40 to S$135, depending on breed and size
  • Full dog grooming: S$75 to S$250+, depending on breed, size, and styling complexity
  • Bath only: S$25 to S$60
  • Cat grooming (basic): S$85 to S$120 per session
  • Cat grooming (full): S$110 to S$175 per session
  • Mobile/house-call surcharge: S$30 to S$80 on top of grooming fees
  • Spa add-ons: S$10 to S$50 per treatment (medicated shampoo, mud bath, aromatherapy)

What drives the price up? Large breeds cost more because they take longer. Double-coated breeds (Huskies, Golden Retrievers) and heavily matted coats require extra work. Breed-specific styling (poodle clips, Bichon shapes) commands a premium over simple trims. Location matters too: salons on Orchard Road or in the CBD charge more than heartland equivalents.

A practical budget for regular grooming is S$50 to S$100 per month if your pet has longer fur or tends to mat easily. Short-coated breeds can stretch to every 6 to 8 weeks. Cat owners should budget slightly more per session since cats generally require more careful handling and specialist products.

How to choose the right pet grooming salon in Singapore

The right grooming salon depends on your pet's temperament, your budget, your location, and whether your pet has any special handling needs. Here is the checklist I would follow:

  1. Match the salon to your pet's personality. An anxious rescue dog needs a low-stress certified groomer, not a high-volume chain. A sociable puppy might love a cage-free salon where they can play between grooming stages. Know your pet before you book
  2. Check groomer certifications. Singapore Kennel Club (SKC) appointment is the most widely recognised standard. Low Stress Handling certification is a bonus for reactive or nervous pets. Ask if the groomer has formal training, not just experience
  3. Visit the salon first. Walk in and observe. Is the space clean? Do the pets being groomed look calm or distressed? Are tools sterilised between animals? Your instinct during a visit tells you more than any website
  4. Ask about updates during sessions. The best salons send WhatsApp photos or allow you to watch through viewing windows. If a salon refuses to let you observe, ask why
  5. Clarify the full cost upfront. Does the quoted price include drying, nail clipping, and ear cleaning? Or are those extras? Surprise charges at pickup are a common complaint. Get everything in writing before you hand your pet over
  6. Start with a basic session. Do not book a full groom with a new salon on the first visit. Start with a bath or basic groom to see how your pet responds before committing to a more involved (and expensive) service

A good grooming experience is one where your pet comes home relaxed and looking great. If your pet returns stressed, shaking, or with nicks, switch salons immediately. There are enough good groomers in Singapore that you should never settle for one your pet dreads visiting.

Next: How often should you groom your pet in Singapore?

How often should you groom your pet in Singapore?

Most dogs in Singapore should be professionally groomed every 4 to 8 weeks, while cats typically need grooming every 6 to 12 weeks. Singapore's heat and humidity mean pets get dirtier faster and are more prone to skin issues than in cooler climates.

Here is a rough guide by coat type:

  • Short-coated dogs (Beagles, Pugs, Dachshunds): every 6 to 8 weeks for a bath and basic groom. They shed but do not mat, so maintenance is lighter
  • Long-coated dogs (Shih Tzus, Maltese, Yorkshire Terriers): every 4 to 6 weeks. These breeds mat quickly in humid weather and need regular trimming to stay comfortable
  • Double-coated dogs (Golden Retrievers, Huskies, Corgis): every 6 to 8 weeks, with extra deshedding treatments during seasonal coat blows
  • Curly-coated dogs (Poodles, Bichon Frises, Doodles): every 4 to 6 weeks without exception. Curly coats mat rapidly and can cause skin problems if neglected
  • Short-haired cats: every 8 to 12 weeks, mainly for nail trimming, ear cleaning, and a bath if needed
  • Long-haired cats (Persians, Ragdolls): every 6 to 8 weeks to prevent matting and hairball issues

Between professional sessions, regular brushing at home makes a significant difference. Even five minutes of daily brushing keeps coats tangle-free and reduces the amount of work (and cost) at the next salon visit. Your groomer can recommend the right brush type for your pet's coat.

Singapore's pet grooming scene has matured well beyond the basic bath-and-trim shops of a decade ago. Whether you need a certified low-stress handler for your anxious rescue, a cage-free playdate salon for your sociable pup, a mobile groomer who comes to your HDB, or simply the most affordable option in your neighbourhood, there is a grooming salon on this list that fits your pet and your budget.

My advice? Start with one or two salons that match your pet's temperament and your location, book a basic session, and see how your pet responds. A groomer your pet trusts is worth their weight in kibble.

Grooming often surfaces something a groomer should not be treating, so it pays to have a clinic already picked: my guide to the best veterinary clinics in Singapore covers that. And if you are travelling, my pet boarding and hotels guide is worth reading well before you need it.

If you run a pet grooming business and your website is not bringing in the bookings it should, a well-designed site with proper local SEO can change that.
