Dog Grooming in Colorado Springs — Free Quotes from Local Groomers

One request reaches independent Colorado Springs groomers, from early-opening salons on North Academy to vans that work the Front Range, and they reply with prices and openings.

Free, no obligation. We pass your request to independent local providers who reply directly.

How the free quote works

  • Free, no obligation. One request, no account, no payment. Groomers reply with availability and you choose.
  • Independent local providers. Salons, mobile vans and self-wash shops in Colorado Springs set their own prices and schedules; we don’t groom dogs ourselves.
  • Licensing checked where we list it. Colorado requires a PACFA groomer licence for salons, mobile vans and self-wash stations. Our listings carry the tag only when confirmed; check any business on the CDA Active Facility List.

Colorado Outdoor Dogs is an independent directory. We don’t provide boarding, daycare, grooming or training ourselves. When you send a request we share your details with the matched provider(s), who may pay us a referral fee. Verify PACFA licensing, vaccination policies and pricing directly with the business.

What to expect

Published prices as of October 2026; typical ranges, not quotes. Providers set their own prices, so confirm with the business.

Colorado Springs salons mostly book by appointment, with walk-ins accepted for quick jobs like nail grinds and ear cleaning. Several groom cats as well as dogs and ask for a phone consultation first. A full groom covers bath, dry, haircut, nails and ears; de-shedding, which matters for the city’s many shepherds and huskies, is an add-on billed by coat. One resort on the north side publishes time-based pricing at roughly $60 an hour, which is a useful way to think about any groom: a heavy, matted or wriggly dog costs more than the size chart suggests.

Bring rabies proof. Expect the groomers you are matched with to quote their own prices; the table shows the published Front Range range for comparison.

Choosing a groomer in Colorado Springs

The north side has the longest hours. The PetSmart grooming salon at Chapel Hills on North Academy opens at 7 am most days, books full grooms and matted-coat removal by appointment and takes walk-ins for nail grinds and teeth brushing; it is PACFA licensed and sits in the same building as a PetsHotel. Farther out in the pine country, Black Forest Dog Resort’s grooming side publishes baths from $45 and full grooms from $60, billed by time at about $60 an hour, and is convenient to tack onto a boarding stay.

Independents on the east side. Annie’s Pet Salon on Barnes Road grooms dogs of every size, with larger dogs handled by a two-person team to keep things calm and quick; it opens at 7:30 on weekdays and closes Sundays. Wag N’ Wash at Stetson Hills pairs first-come, first-served self-wash stations with an appointment salon, a practical stop after a red-dirt day on the west-side trails.

Mobile covers the whole Pikes Peak region. Barkbus sends a self-contained van to your door with all-in pricing for its signature bath, and separate charges for haircuts and de-shedding; enter your zip code on its site to confirm coverage, which varies by area. Mobile is the sensible route for a large or anxious dog that does not travel well on I-25.

Local rules worth knowing. City dog licences are issued through the Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region, and the city’s off-leash areas require dogs to be inoculated and licensed. Groomers here see a lot of cheatgrass and foxtail from June onward, especially from the Garden of the Gods and Red Rock Canyon dog runs, so ask for a paw and ear check with every groom in summer.

Dog Grooming in Colorado Springs: questions

What does dog grooming cost in Colorado Springs?

Published Front Range prices in October 2026 were $60 to $85 for a small dog’s full groom, $85 to $95 for medium and $105 to $120 or more for large. One Black Forest groomer publishes baths from $45 and full grooms from $60, billed at about $60 an hour. The groomers you are matched with set their own prices.

Which Colorado Springs groomers take walk-ins?

The PetSmart salon at Chapel Hills takes walk-ins for nail grinds, teeth brushing and ear cleaning, and Wag N’ Wash at Stetson Hills runs first-come self-wash stations with no appointment. Full grooms almost everywhere in the city are by appointment, and Annie’s Pet Salon does not advertise walk-in availability.

Is there a groomer in Colorado Springs that handles big dogs well?

Annie’s Pet Salon on Barnes Road grooms large dogs with a two-person team so the process is faster and calmer. Mobile services like Barkbus are another option, since the dog is handled alone in a van at your home. Tell any groomer the breed and weight when you request a quote so they can plan time.

Do groomers in Colorado Springs need a PACFA licence?

Yes. Colorado’s PACFA law licenses salons, mobile groomers and self-wash stations through the Department of Agriculture, with an inspection before the license is issued. Our directory shows a PACFA tag for Chapel Hills PetSmart, Black Forest Dog Resort and Wag N’ Wash where we confirmed it; check any business on the CDA Active Facility List.

Can I book grooming at the end of a boarding stay?

Often, yes. The PetSmart PetsHotel at Chapel Hills shares a building with its salon, and Black Forest Dog Resort grooms dogs that are already boarding. Ask when you book the stay, since exit baths are scheduled around pickup time and busy holiday weeks fill quickly.
