How much does dog grooming cost in Basingstoke and north Hampshire in 2026?
Published pricing is the exception across Basingstoke and north Hampshire's dog groomers: of the 33 businesses listed in this directory, only one, Wiggle Waggs and Washes in the Hook area, publishes a genuine price list. This guide sets out exactly what is published, rather than guessing at the rest.
Published prices, September 2026
| Groomer | Where | What's published |
|---|---|---|
| Wiggle Waggs and Washes | Hook (Sherfield-on-Loddon Garden Centre) | Full groom from £45; bath and brush from £30; puppy groom £20; nail clipping £10 |
What the one price list shows
Wiggle Waggs and Washes, run by groomer Emily from a unit inside Sherfield-on-Loddon Garden Centre, charges from £45 for a full groom and £30 for a bath and brush, with a flat £20 for a puppy groom and £10 for a nail clip on its own. It also publishes a cancellation policy: 25 to 50 percent of the booked fee is charged for a cancellation inside 24 hours, which is worth knowing before you book. Alongside its priced services, the salon also offers hand stripping, de-shedding, teeth cleaning and flea treatment, though those aren't individually priced online.
Why so few prices online
Most of the 33 businesses in this directory have no website of their own, relying instead on a directory listing, a Facebook or Nextdoor page, or a phone number confirmed independently, which is the most likely reason for the near-silence on price. Several with a working website of their own, including Barkerz Grooming Parlour, Pesky Pooch Dog Grooming, Happy Tails Grooming, Abbey Road Grooming, Pimp My Pooch Dog Grooming, Dogwood Basingstoke Pet Grooming Spa, Furdresser Dog Grooming, Gruffs, The Grooming Table and JMS Professional Mobile Dog Grooming Service, still ask you to call or quote per dog rather than publishing figures. Dogwood Basingstoke Pet Grooming Spa lists its services, including a blueberry facial and de-tangling, without pricing any of them.
What this suggests
One price list from one groomer in one of eight areas isn't a market rate for Basingstoke and north Hampshire, but it's a useful anchor for a phone call: expect a full groom to start somewhere in the £35 to £50 range for a small dog, based on what's published in this and neighbouring directories on this site, rising with coat length, matting and breed size. Ask exactly what's included in a quoted price, whether nails, ears and a de-shed are part of the base groom or charged separately, and whether a mobile groomer adds a call-out cost, before booking anywhere in this directory.
