Groomers wages are commission based. If you do not show up to your appointment or cancel last minute, not only are we unable to accommodate another customer, but the groomer looses income. This is why Dogfather has a strict cancellation policy to protect our groomers and make sure that this does not hurt their bottom line.

Our cancellation policies are as follows:
PLEASE NOTE: We do not accept changes or cancellations to appointments via email or social media. You must call the store at 416.960.1088.
  1. Changing an appointment the day before (up until the store closes – voicemails after store hours is considered a same day cancellation) - $25 fee.

  2. Same day cancellation - 50% of the grooming fee will apply.

  3. No shows (meaning no phone call or calling after the appointment has already started) - 100% of the full grooming fee will apply.

  4. If a client fails to cancel or show up twice within a 12 month period, we will require the client to pay the full cost of the groom up front if they wish to book an appointment. This charge will not be refunded if they do not follow our cancellation policy guidelines.
