How much does dog grooming cost in Doncaster in 2026?
Doncaster is a small file for this directory: seventeen dog groomers with a confirmed phone number, spread across eight areas from Doncaster centre out to Barnsley. Of those seventeen, only two publish an actual price list. This guide sets out exactly what those two charge, and what to expect from everyone else.
Published prices, September 2026
| Groomer | Where | What's published |
|---|---|---|
| Canine Couture Grooming Salon | Stainforth (Thorne & Hatfield) | Grooms from £20 (French Bulldog, Chihuahua) to £65 (Alaskan Malamute); general grooming, haircut or deshedding £30; ultrasound scanning £20; microchipping £10 |
| Animal Crackers | Barnsley | Full bath & groom from £19 (small) to £28 (large); bathing with nails and ears from £14; nails and face trim from £6 |
What each list actually shows
Canine Couture, on East Lane in Stainforth, prices by breed and size: £20 covers a French Bulldog or Chihuahua groom, rising to £45 for a Cockapoo or Golden Retriever and £65 for an Alaskan Malamute, alongside a flat £30 for general grooming, a haircut or deshedding on its own. It also lists ultrasound scanning at £20 and microchipping at £10, which are not grooming services but are worth knowing about if you're already booking an appointment there.
Animal Crackers, on Dodworth Road in Barnsley, prices by dog size rather than breed: a full bath and groom runs from £19 for a small dog to £23 for medium and £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. The groomer there says they have 35 years' experience, including hand-stripping wire-haired breeds and spaniels.
Why the other fifteen don't publish a figure
Most of Doncaster's listed groomers have no working website of their own, relying instead on a directory listing, a phone number found through Google, or an address repeated across multiple sources with no site to check for pricing. Several businesses with a genuine working site, including Chaiquinta Pet Hotel and Grooming Salon, Blingbabes Groom Room, House of Hounds and Immaculate Dogs, still quote on request rather than publishing figures online. Two businesses, All Dogs Grooming Parlour Ltd (Bessacarr) and A Mucky Paw Solution (Bentley), have a confirmed address but no phone number this directory could verify, so they are not listed here at all, let alone priced.
What this means for you
Two data points from a town of seventeen groomers isn't a market rate for Doncaster, but they are the only figures on record: £19 to £28 for a full bath and groom at Animal Crackers in Barnsley, and £20 to £65 depending on breed at Canine Couture in Stainforth. For everyone else, ring ahead, describe your dog's size, breed and coat condition, and ask for a price before you book, since almost none of this town's groomers publish one.
