We had a mobile groomer, Grooms 2 Go. Business owner. He is very hard working. I always tipped him. He actually was less expensive than any other groomer we took our golden to.
When we took in a 15-yr-old abandoned foster golden, the dog hadn't been groomed in ages. He was full to the brim with hair. The mobile groomer (I wish I could remember his name) picked the poor thing up (he could barely walk due to untreated arthritis), carried him to the truck, blew the excess hair out with a blow dryer, and gave him a bath, carried him back to the house. $60. Later he told me he drove to an empty field and blew all the hair out of his grooming truck.
I loved that guy. We used him for both goldens for a long time. This owner deserved his tips, and his Christmas tip as well.
