.COVID-19 Update May 2020:
Vermont is slowly opening up. I am excited to be allowed to groom again, but only outdoors. Which is very much weather-dependent, but also on your property. I can work under shelter, but it needs to be aerated, like a covered porch or open garage. Social distancing measures continue to apply. I have started to working off the backlog and it was so nice to see some of my furry and human friends again. Not unexpectedly, though, they needed a bit more attention than usual, since it has been a while. With lots of flexibility on both sides I should be able to see your pet within the next 3-4 weeks. I have hired a helper to support me, particularly for larger dogs. I really do appreciate your patience, understanding, and cooperation. It might be a while before I can see your pet, but I have prepared a page for you to help you: CLICK HERE to visit my Grooming Tips and Suggestions page. Be well, stay safe, and stay in touch!

While I provide house-call grooming services for pets of all ages, I have a soft spot for senior pets. I see wisdom in their eyes, and there is a gentle calmness about them. Working with senior pets is my passion, not only as a groomer, but in all aspects of their health and well being. My main priority is the comfort of the animal, providing gentle home grooming sessions. I do not put an older dog in the bathtub. I don't force a pet to do anything, and I respect their physical and emotional limitations. I use gentle tools, cleaners, and conditioners for coat care. As our pets age, their aches and pains can make a trip to the groomer painful and unpleasant. I give those pets the grooming they need while eliminating stress and pain. No grooming on the table, no baths, only gentle handling and care. Of course I use the same approach on all pets I see, their comfort is my priority. My grooming sessions happen in your pets home, where they get one-on-one attention. Call or text Fresh & Furry at (802) 333-4321 or by e-mailing to schedule an appointment. |
"We had Dirk Ussler of Fresh & Furry Pet Grooming come to our house to groom one of our dogs who is old and has health issues. Dirk showed up right on time, did a fantastic job and our old "Buddy," usually unhappy about being groomed, was totally fine throughout. We will definitely become "regulars" with Dirk."
- Warren Thayer, Norwich, VT EDDIE LOVES DIRK THE MOBILE PET GROOMER
The Sunday Valley News featured an article about Dirk Ussler and his mobile pet grooming service, Fresh & Furry Pet Grooming. Well, I have first hand experience to share! - Read the article. Dirk is great! He was very gentle with Mandy, our 17 yr. old cat, and did a wonderful job. Highly recommended.
- J. Seidensticker, NH A great experience! Sophie looks good (and clean), smells great and her fur feels wonderfully soft! She's a rescue dog and a bit wary,but Dirk's mellow yet very attentive demeanor worked--she calmly settled down for her brushing and clipping (and what a lot of dirty stuff came off her). And he gave me some good tips along the way. We will gladly welcome Dirk back for a post-mud season visit to get her ready for summer.
- D. Anderson, VT We highly recommend Dirk.. He does such an amazing job with our labs.. If I could give him 10 stars I would .. Thank you for being so good to our girls Dirk... : )
- A. Thresher, NH I highly recommend Fresh and Furry Pet Grooming. Dirk made my dog feel very comfortable and she kept following him around even after he was done with grooming her.
