How much does dog grooming cost in Barnsley in 2026?
Published pricing is the exception among the 34 dog groomers this directory has confirmed across Barnsley, Royston, Cudworth, Wombwell and Penistone. Only two publish a genuine full-groom price list: Animal Crackers (Barnsley) and Oodlicious Dog Grooming (Barnsley town centre). A third, Pride and Groom in Penistone, publishes prices for a nail clip, anal gland expression and microchipping only, not a full groom. This guide sets out exactly what each one charges rather than guessing at the rest.
Published prices, September 2026
| Groomer | Where | What's published |
|---|---|---|
| Animal Crackers | Barnsley (Dodworth Road) | Full bath & groom £19 (small) to £28 (large); bathing with nails and ears from £14; nails and face trim from £6 |
| Oodlicious Dog Grooming | Barnsley town centre (Victoria Road) | Full groom £33 (extra small/teacup) to £70 (extra large); bath & tidy £22 to £38; nail trim £9; ear clean £7 |
What the two price lists show
Animal Crackers, on Dodworth Road, prices a full bath and groom from £19 for a small dog up to £28 for large, with a cheaper bathing-only option (nails and ears included) from £14 and a nails-and-face-trim add-on from £6. Oodlicious Dog Grooming, which specialises in wool-coat and wool-mix breeds such as cockapoos and labradoodles, prices its full groom by size from £33 for an extra small or teacup dog up to £70 for extra large, with a cheaper bath-and-tidy option from £22 to £38 and small add-ons for a nail trim (£9) or ear clean (£7). Together the two lists suggest a basic wash starts around £14 to £22, and a full groom starts from £19 to £33 for the smallest dogs, rising well past £60 for the largest.
The one add-on price list
Pride and Groom, a family-run pet shop and salon in Penistone, publishes prices for a nail clip or anal gland expression (£5, walk-in) and microchipping (£10 for a standard chip, £15 for a mini one) only. Its full-groom pricing isn't published, so it isn't in the comparison above; ask for a quote for your dog when you call.
Why so few prices online
Most of the other 31 businesses in this directory rely on a directory listing, a Facebook or Instagram page, or a phone number with no website at all, which is the likely reason for the near-silence on price. Several with a working website of their own, including The Paw Spa, Rivendown All Pets Grooming Services, Dogzi K9 Beauty & Dog Grooming Salon and Bubbles'n'Bark Dog Grooming, still ask you to call rather than publishing figures.
What this suggests
Two full price lists and one add-on list aren't a market rate for the whole Barnsley area, but they're a useful starting point for a phone call: expect roughly £14 to £22 for a basic bath, and £19 to £33 upwards for a full groom on a small dog, with larger dogs and coat type adding to that. Ask exactly what's included in the base groom price before you book, since ear cleaning, nail trims and de-matting are sometimes bundled in and sometimes charged separately.
