First and foremost, the safety and well being of your pet(s) is of highest importance.

Allergies
Paws 'n Motion is not responsible for any allergic reactions resulting from the manufacture- recommended use of any products. Please consult your veterinarian prior to having your pet treated if you have any questions concerning your pet sensitivity to such treatments.

Vaccinations
Paws 'n Motion encourages all pets receiving grooming services to be up to date on ALL vaccinations. However, we only require pets to be current on Rabies vaccinations if they are just receiving grooming services. It is important that you know even if your pet is up to date on all his/her vaccinations your pet can still get kennel cough and other health issues. Remarkably like getting a flu shot and still catch “The Flu” and the same way kids in daycare can pass on “The Pink Eye” to one another, this also apply to dogs. Paws 'n Motion is not responsible for transferring of kennel cough or any other upper respiratory infections.

Payment

I understand that due to the nature of pet grooming all quoted prices prior to grooming my pet are only estimates. Final price will depend on temperament of each pet, and the condition of its coat. Upon physical inspection of my pet by a “Pet stylists”, or “Bathers”, a good faith estimated price will be provided. Extra charges may apply for pets that are matted, have fleas and/or difficult to manage. Often, we are not aware of these extra charges until we have begun the grooming process, because of this the price originally quoted at drop off could increase.
Payment is due at time of services (cash or card only).
I understand Paws 'n Motion has the right to refuse service to me and my pet at any time for any reason.
