How much does dog grooming cost in Wandsworth and south-west London in 2026?
Published pricing is rare among the thirty-nine dog groomers listed across Wandsworth and south-west London: only two businesses, The Pet Spa London's Balham branch and SW Dog Groomers (based in Wimbledon, covering Tooting and Streatham), publish genuine price lists. This guide sets out exactly what is published, rather than guessing at the rest.
Published prices, September 2026
| Groomer | Where | What's published |
|---|---|---|
| The Pet Spa London – Balham | Balham | Dog full groom from £70; cat wash & tidy from £89; cat lion cut from £119 |
| SW Dog Groomers | Wimbledon (covers Tooting and Streatham) | Nail clipping £15; wash and go from £30; full groom from £39 (short-haired) or £79 (long-haired) |
What each one charges
The Pet Spa London's Balham branch, on Hildreth Street, is one of the few salons in this directory that grooms both dogs and cats, and its site gives starting prices for both: £70 for a dog full groom, £89 for a cat wash and tidy, and £119 for a cat lion cut, plus walk-in cat nail clipping. Its sister branch in Chelsea does not publish branch-specific prices of its own. SW Dog Groomers, based just outside the eight named areas in Wimbledon but explicitly covering Wandsworth, Tooting, Streatham, New Malden and Putney, publishes a fuller walk-in price list: £15 for a nail clip, £30 for a wash and go, and a full groom starting at £39 for a short-haired dog, rising to £79 for a long-haired one.
Why so few prices online
Most of the thirty-nine businesses listed here, including long-established salons like D-O-G Grooming Studio and Bishop's Bark, and chains like Pet Pavilion and London Dog Grooming Co., quote on enquiry rather than publishing a price list. Several run home-based or one-to-one setups, including Dog Street Pet Grooming, Canine Hairline and both branches of Dog & Groom, where a fixed grid doesn't suit a bespoke, appointment-only style of booking. Mobile and home-visit operators add a call-out charge that varies by postcode and dog size, which is another reason a flat published price is rare among them; Diva Dogs London is the one exception that does publish its £45 call-out fee, even without full groom prices to go alongside it.
What this suggests
Two data points from thirty-nine listings isn't a reliable market rate for an area stretching from Chelsea's King's Road to Streatham's Green Lane, but they are a starting point for a phone call: a full groom for a small dog looks to start somewhere in the high-£30s to £70 range across these two salons, before your own dog's size, coat and condition are factored in. Ask for a size-based quote before booking anywhere else in this directory, since an asking price and a final price can differ once the groomer has seen your dog.
