"*" indicates required fields Aussie Pet Mobile Pet Release Form At Aussie Pet Mobile we want your pet’s grooming experience to be pleasant and as enjoyable as possible. It is important to understand that some pets respond to grooming differently, even with best efforts. We make every effort to make it a safe and positive experience. Sometimes pre-existing conditions arise unforeseen to our groomers, such as skin allergies, shampoo allergies, moles, clipper sensitivity, matting and tangles, fleas, fear, behavioral issues, bone or joint sensitivity, heart condition, seizures, etc. It is helpful that you, as the pet owner, inform us of anything that you are aware of prior to grooming. Fleas & Ticks: In order to protect transfer of fleas from one appointment to the next, it is our policy to reschedule appointments immediately following a pet with fleas, to flea bomb the van and tools, and for the groomer to change uniforms. If you suspect your pet has fleas or ticks, please inform us prior to the service. Please note that parasites are a health hazard to your pet as well as to humans. If fleas and ticks are found during the grooming process, your pet will be given a flea bath and you will be charged an additional fee of $40.Initial* Reset signature Signature locked. Reset to sign again Matted Coats and Excessive Undercoats: Unmaintained coats cause a variety of health problems for your pet. Fleas, ticks, and other parasites may be lurking in the coat causing further skin infections. The skin underneath can be raw and inflamed. Severely matted coats will require a shave down. We are happy to show you how to care for your pet’s coat in the future, however we cannot brush out a coat that is already severely matted due to the stress and the pain it will cause your pet. Your pet may be nicked or cut because we have to work so closely to the skin to remove the coat. We are careful, but it is possible an injury may occur. Shaving a severely matted coat is a very delicate process and an additional fee will be charged. For double coated breeds it is very important to brushout the undercoat. If these breeds are not regularly shedding their coats it is likely being packed against the skin causing similar skin issues to that of matted hair. Additionally, it may not be possible to complete the bathing process without addressing the packed in undercoat because soap can be trapped and not fully rinsed out. Coats in this condition will require additional blowout/brushout fees in order to properly complete the basic bath. The rate for these situations is $30 per each additional half hour above what a typical groom for a similar size pet and services would be. This charge will only be added if the groom goes longer than a standard scheduled appointment.Initial* Reset signature Signature locked. Reset to sign again Current Vaccinations: Puppies and Kittens must have completed all their shots before the first groom. By signing this contract, owners attest their pets are current on Rabies. State Law requires each pet to have current rabies vaccination prior to being groomed. While Aussie Pet Mobile adheres to a stringent sanitation procedure for all vans and equipment, we also strongly advise that each pet be vaccinated against distemper, hepatitis, parainfluenza adenovirus type 2, parvovirus, corona, leptospirosis, and bordetella prior to being groomed. Aggressive or Dangerous Pets: Owners MUST inform us if your pet(s) bites, has bitten, or is aggressive to people, other pets or specific grooming procedures. Muzzles may be used if necessary. Muzzling will not harm your pet, and protects both the pet and the groomer. We reserve the right to refuse/stop services for such pet(s) at any time before or during the grooming process. Health or Medical Problems & Senior Pets: Grooming procedures can sometimes be stressful and can expose hidden medical problems or aggravate a current one during or after the groom. Because senior pets and pets with health problems have a greater chance of injury, the groomer’s first objective for these pets is cleanliness and comfort. Please let the groomer know of any health concerns your pet may have. Additionally, to the best of your knowledge your pet is healthy enough to get groomed.Initial* Reset signature Signature locked. Reset to sign again Panting, Drooling, & Similar Signs of Stress: Should your dog or cat exhibit any signs of being over stressed, we will stop the groom. You will be called out to the van to discuss what we are observing, and with you, determine if we should continue. Your pet’s well-being is our first priority. Accidents: There is always the possibility an accident could occur. Grooming equipment is sharp, even though we use extreme caution and care in all situations, possible problems could occur including cuts, nicks, scratches, quicking of nails, etc. Every effort will be made to insure your pet is groomed as safely as possible. In the case an injury does occur to your pet during the groom, the groomer will take care of the injury according to our safety and accident policy. And in the case of a serious injury he/she will inform immediately. Appointment Cancellation, Tips, Payment & Returned Checks: If you need to reschedule your appointment please contact us within 48 hours of the appointment, otherwise you may be charged for the appointment. Tips are always appreciated but NEVER expected. If a groomer exceeds your expectations a tip of 15-20% is typical. 100% of tips go to your groomer. Payment for groom services is due at the time of service. We accept, cash, check, credit, and debit cards. For your convenience and with our prior arrangement, you may put your credit card on file with us. We will charge your card for services the following day. There is a $25 return check fee.Initial* Reset signature Signature locked.
