How much does dog grooming cost in Cambridge in 2026?
Published pricing is rare among Cambridge's dog groomers: of the nineteen businesses listed in this directory, spanning Cambridge itself, Histon, Sawston and Ely, only one 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Cambridge Home Grooming | Cambridge | Toy breed full groom from £42; toy breed bath & brush from £30; small/medium breed bath & brush from £35 |
Cambridge Home Grooming's full price list
Cambridge Home Grooming, known locally as Vicky, is the only business in this directory with published starting prices. It is a one-to-one, in-home service: the groomer travels to your address and works inside your own home, using a portable grooming station and your bath or shower, rather than running a fixed salon. Prices scale by size and by service level, from a £30 bath and brush for a toy breed up to a £42 full groom for the same size category; a small or medium breed bath and brush is £35.
Why so few prices online
Five of the nineteen businesses in this directory, Dapper Dog Grooming, Shampooch and Set, Handsome Hounds Ely, The Dog Bathing Company and Cheryl's Clip & Cut, have no confirmed website at all, relying instead on Facebook or a listing in a general local-services directory, which very likely explains at least part of the silence on price. But most of the businesses that do have a working website, including Plush Puppies Dog Grooming, Wagglebumz, NorthFen Grooming, Nat's Pawfection, Groom2U, Falkor Dog Boarding and Chloe's Dog Grooming, still quote on enquiry rather than publishing figures. Ask for a price, or an estimate based on your dog's size, breed and coat condition, before booking anywhere in this directory.
What this suggests
One data point isn't a market rate, but it is a starting point for a phone conversation: Cambridge Home Grooming's £30 to £42 range, for an in-home mobile service, is the only figure on record across all nineteen businesses covering Cambridge, Histon, Sawston and Ely. A fixed salon, or a specialist offering hand-stripping or ultrasonic teeth cleaning, such as Nat's Pawfection, NorthFen Grooming or Chloe's Dog Grooming, may charge more once premises costs or extra time are factored in, but there is no published Cambridge figure here to confirm that either way. Ring ahead and ask for a like-for-like quote before you commit.
