When I first adopted my dog as an undergraduate student living in FSU apartments, one of the first things I needed to consider was where to get my dog groomed. Coming from the shelter he was half-shaved due to severe matting and the rest of his fur was long and messy. I didn't know anyone else in the city that lived with a dog in pet-friendly apartments near FSU so I had to do some significant research and ensure that I took him to a place that I trusted.
Mod Dog Boutique
My dog has gotten groomed at Mod Dog Boutique a few times and always comes out looking rather spiffy. The groomers there do such a good job and makes him look handsome every time. In the past, Mod Dog has sold dog treats, leashes, collars, harnesses, and more in the lobby. After grooming appointments, I like to purchase a treat for my dog there to make up for the grooming process, as he doesn't particularly enjoy it, but that is no fault of the groomer. Mod Dog Boutique is located near Florida State University which makes it a super convenient option for FSU students.
Groom Vroom Mobile Pet Grooming

On their website, Groom Vroom Mobile Pet Grooming has a full list of services and even some before and after photos that depict some adorable haircut transformations if you ask me.

There are so many great options for dog grooming near FSU apartments. For Florida State University students, you don't need to look far to find a great groomer. I'd also like to add that most groomers offer bathing, nail trimming, and other important services besides trimming up your dog's fur. Maintaining a dog's fur and hygiene can be important to their health, regardless of your dog's breed. If you don't currently take your pet to a groomer, perhaps you should consider it, especially if you don't enjoy bathing them or trimming their nails.
The above options were just a few of the many wonderful groomers here in Tallahassee. There are countless small businesses that would love to beautify your furry friend. I hope you and your dog find one you mesh well with.
