WEST BLOOMFIELD, Mich. -- Pet owners in the West Bloomfield area now have the option to have pet groomers come to them with the recent arrival of Aussie Pet Mobile, a moble pet-grooming service that offers a 15-step spa treatment to pets.

"Pets are an incredibly special part of people's lives and I am thrilled to open a business that offers professional, high-quality pet-grooming services to help maintain and achieve a pet's best well-being," said Beth Kascheres, franchise owner of West Bloomfield's Aussie Pet Mobile. "Having one of the most recognized names in the mobile pet grooming industry, I look forward to meeting the growing demand for mobile pet-grooming services in the area."

The Aussie Pet Moblie was created to help busy families keep their pets well maintained and groomed without having to schedule trips to the groomer.

"My typical customers are either very busy, have small children, have elderly pets or are elderly themselves. These are all great reasons to utilize the convenience of Aussie Pet Mobile. Of course, some just want their pets to have the best treatment possible," said Kascheres.

In the Aussie Pet Mobile, cats and dogs can receive one-on-one grooming attention in the comfort of a Mercedes van customized with air-conditioning, heat, electricity and water. The van doesn't rely on any outside electrical or water hookups, which makes the service just as easy for condo and apartment residents.

Spa treatment given to pets include professional shampooing, massage, blow dry, brushing, nail clipping and many other spa-like procedures. For an additional charge, pets can also receive aloe treatments for dry skin, nail grinding, flea and tick control and the FURminator, a tool used to remove excess hair and reduce shedding.

The Aussie Pet Moblie services areas such as Troy, Bloomfield Hills, Birmingham, Franklin, Keego Harbor, Farmington, Walled Lake, Novi and South Lyon. Pricing for all of Aussie Pet Mobile's services depends on the breed, size, coat condition and types of services.
