How much does dog grooming cost in Crawley in 2026?
Published pricing is thin across Crawley's dog groomers: of the thirty-four businesses in this directory, five publish an actual price list, and none of the others quote a figure anywhere found. This guide sets out exactly what is published, rather than guessing at the rest.
Published prices, September 2026
| Groomer | Where | What's published |
|---|---|---|
| DogTails Grooming | Three Bridges | Basic groom £23; full groom from £35; nail clipping £5 |
| Bones and Combs | Crawley (mobile contact) | Puppy grooming £35; bath and blow dry £40; nail clipping or tick and flea bath £10 each |
| Stop Drop and Paws | Bewbush | Wash, dry and tidy £35; puppy grooming (up to 6 months) £25; nail trimming £7; de-shedding £35; full groom from £35 |
| Tufts & Tails by Nadine | Horsham | Full groom from £40 (XS breed) to £50 (medium breed); large and XL on request |
| Paws & Relax | Southwater, Horsham | Bath and brush £40; full groom from £40 (small) to £65 (large); puppy intro £25 |
What a full groom costs where it's published
Where a full groom is priced by name, it starts at £35 (DogTails Grooming, Stop Drop and Paws) and rises to £65 for a large breed at Paws & Relax. Tufts & Tails by Nadine and Paws & Relax both size their full groom by breed, from £40 up to £50 and £65 respectively, with large and extra-large dogs priced on request rather than a fixed figure. Bones and Combs doesn't price a full groom by that name; its highest published figure, £40, is for a bath and blow dry, so treat that as the closer comparison for a full session there rather than its £10 nail-clipping add-on.
Why so few prices online
Most of Crawley's thirty-four listed groomers, twenty-nine of them, publish no prices at all. A good number have no working website of their own, relying instead on a Facebook page or an online listing rather than a first-hand site, which likely explains much of the silence. Several businesses with a working site of their own, including Dainty Dogs, Muddy Paws Grooming Studio, The Grooming Studio and both Merryweathers branches, still quote on enquiry rather than publish a figure. Elsewhere in the coverage area, The Betchworth Barkery charges £1 a mile for pick-up and drop-off on top of its own, unpublished, grooming price. Ask for a price, or an estimate based on your dog's size and coat, before booking anywhere in this directory.
What this suggests
Five data points aren't a market rate, but they are a starting point for a phone call: a basic wash-and-tidy from around £23 to £25, a full groom from £35 for a small dog rising toward £50 to £65 for a larger one, and add-ons like a nail trim or a tick and flea bath typically £5 to £10. Expect a boutique salon or a home studio taking dogs one at a time to sit toward the higher end once you factor in fewer dogs seen each day, but there's no published Crawley figure here to confirm that either way. Whatever the quote, ask what it includes: a bath, a full clip, nail care and ear cleaning aren't always bundled the same way from one business to the next.
