Pet Grooming Services
in Tinley Park, IL
Caring for your dog shouldn’t feel stressful, rushed, or overwhelming. At Rosemary’s Grooming, we’ve built our entire approach around comfort, calm energy, and one-on-one attention. Located right here in Tinley Park, IL, we specialize exclusively in grooming small dogs twenty pounds and under, giving every pup the gentle, individualized care they deserve. Since opening our doors back in 1984, we’ve earned the trust of local pet owners by providing dependable dog grooming services that keep pets clean, healthy, and happy without ever using tranquilizers or high-pressure environments.
Whether you’re coming from around the Oak Park Avenue historic district, near Vogt Visual Arts Center, or any surrounding areas, you can count on us for a welcoming space where your dog is treated like family. We believe grooming should be peaceful and positive, and that’s exactly what we aim to deliver every single day.
Why Our Dog Grooming Services Matter
Small dogs have unique grooming needs, and many feel anxious or overwhelmed in loud, crowded grooming salons. That’s why we’ve created a calm, cage-free environment where pets never have to wait in a line of barking dogs. We take only one client at a time, which means your dog receives our full attention from start to finish.
Because we focus on small breeds only, we understand how to handle delicate coats, sensitive skin, and tiny paws with care. Our grooming sessions usually take an hour or less, and since we never use tranquilizers, we rely solely on patience, gentle handling, and years of experience to ensure your dog feels safe throughout the process.
Our Dog Grooming Services
We offer a full range of dog grooming services tailored specifically to small breeds. Every appointment follows a simple, effective routine designed to keep your pet looking their best while supporting their overall health.
Full Dog Grooming
Our full grooming service includes clipping, bathing, blow-drying, nail cutting, ear cleaning, and anal gland expression when needed. We work in a step-by-step process that keeps dogs calm and ensures every part of the grooming session is handled with care.
Dog Haircuts
As small dog haircut specialists, we shape and style coats according to your preferences and the needs of your pet. Whether you love a classic trim, a tidy puppy cut, or a neat seasonal style, we create clean, even results that keep your dog comfortable and adorable.
Dog Nail Cutting
We offer both scheduled and walk-in nail trims. Our gentle approach helps make nail cutting less stressful while keeping your dog’s nails at a healthy length to prevent discomfort and mobility issues.
Ear Cleaning
Routine ear cleaning helps prevent infections, especially in smaller breeds with long or folded ears. We clean ears carefully and thoroughly to keep them free of buildup and irritation.
Anal Gland Expression
Our anal gland expression service helps ease your dog’s discomfort while preventing odor and irritation. This helps reduce discomfort, scooting, and odor while supporting your dog’s health.
A Calming, One-Dog-At-A-Time Environment
Many dogs feel uneasy when they see other pets waiting in cages or hear multiple groomers working at once. At Rosemary’s Grooming, this never happens. We schedule one dog per appointment, meaning your pet never waits in a cage, never gets rushed, and never shares the grooming space with another animal.
This approach keeps grooming sessions short, smooth, and much less stressful for both dogs and their owners. Our clients love knowing their pets receive personal attention the entire time they’re here.
