When you visit DogCity West Seattle for a nail trim, you’ll receive fast, professional service designed around your pet’s comfort and safety.
We start by greeting your dog or cat calmly, helping them feel at ease in our grooming space. Our team is trained to read body language and adjust our approach based on how your pet is feeling. Nervous animals are given extra time and attention, while confident pets are handled quickly and efficiently to minimize stress.
Nail trimming is done using professional-grade clippers and grinders to ensure precision and reduce the risk of splitting. We carefully trim the nails to a safe length, avoiding the quick (the blood vessel inside the nail). For dogs with thicker nails or dark nail beds, we may use a grinder to smooth rough edges and prevent sharp points from forming.
Cats receive equally gentle care. We use cat-specific trimmers and restraint techniques that keep your feline calm and secure throughout the process. No muzzles, no rough handling—just patience, skill, and positive reinforcement.
If your pet is extra sensitive or has had bad experiences in the past, let us know when you book. We’ll work with you to make the visit as smooth as possible. This service is available as a standalone option or can be easily added to any grooming or bath appointment. And if you're short on time—walk-ins are welcome every day before 12 PM for quick, convenient care.
