Book a Christmas GroomYour dog will be in the family photos, on the couch next to visiting relatives, and under the tree on Christmas morning. A holiday groom at Super Pet in East Falmouth makes sure your dog looks and feels its best for all of it. Here is exactly when to book and what to ask for.
The Best Dates for a Christmas Groom
A groom looks its best for about the first week. For Christmas 2026, plan around these windows:
- December 1 to 12: for holiday card photos, early parties, and families who travel off-Cape for the holidays
- December 15 to 19: a great balance of freshness and availability
- December 22 and 23: the freshest possible look for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day
Super Pet's regular hours are Tuesday to Friday 9 AM to 5 PM and Saturday 9 AM to 1 PM, closed Sunday and Monday. Holiday hours during Christmas week can differ. Call (508) 524-3489 to confirm.
If your dog was groomed for Thanksgiving, a Christmas groom 4 weeks later lines up well with the recommended 4 to 6 week schedule for curly and long-coated breeds.
What to Book for the Holidays
For the full holiday look
A bath and full groom (from $75) includes a bath, hand blow-dry, full brush-out, haircut to your preference, nail trim, ear cleaning, and a finishing bandana. For Goldendoodles and other doodle breeds, ask for a fresh teddy bear face and a tidy around the feet.
For holiday photos
Book the groom 1 to 2 days before the photo session. Add a spa and hydration treatment (from $50). Winter air and indoor heating dry out the coat, and a hydration treatment brings back softness and shine that shows up clearly in photos.
For a house full of guests
Add a de-shedding treatment (from $30) and teeth brushing (from $12). Less hair on the furniture, fresher breath when your dog greets everyone.
For cats
We groom cats too, in a calm space separate from dogs. Every cat is reviewed by our lead groomer before the appointment is confirmed, so contact us early in December. See cat grooming in Falmouth, MA.
Holiday Safety Reminders
Keep chocolate, grapes, raisins, xylitol-sweetened treats, and cooked bones out of reach. Secure tree ornaments and tinsel, and cover electrical cords. Poinsettias, holly, and mistletoe can upset a dog's stomach, so keep them up high. If your dog eats something it should not, call your veterinarian right away.
