Waggin' Wheels We come to you
Mobile grooming in Peoria — we pull right up!

Your dog's spa day,
parked in your driveway.

The spa comes to your driveway. Your pup never leaves the block. No car ride, no waiting room, no barking chaos — just Kelsi, warm water, and one very spoiled pup at a time.

What We Do In There

Every appointment is one-on-one in the van. Not sure which one your dog needs? Call and describe them — we'll figure it out together.

The Full Fluff

The works! Bath, blow-dry, full haircut, nails, ears, and a bandana on the way out. Your dog goes back inside looking like a brand new dog.

Bath & Brush

Warm bath, gentle shampoo picked for your pup's coat and skin, thorough blow-dry, and a de-shed brushout. No haircut, all the fresh.

Puppy's First Spa Day

A short, sweet, low-pressure intro to grooming for pups under six months. Lots of treats, lots of praise, zero drama. We go at their speed.

De-Shed Treatment

For the huskies, shepherds, and goldens shedding a second dog's worth of fur onto your couch. Deep undercoat work that actually makes a dent.

Nails, Ears & Tidy-Up

Quick maintenance stop between full grooms. Nail trim and file, ear cleaning, sanitary trim, and a face tidy so they can see again.

Senior & Special-Needs Grooming

Extra time, extra patience, non-slip footing, and plenty of breaks for old-timers and anxious dogs. Nobody gets rushed on my van.

Pricing depends on size, coat, and condition — ask and we'll quote you straight. Contact us

Hi, I'm Kelsi — and I already like your dog.

Kelsi Brandt · Owner & Lead Groomer

Twenty years as a pet groomer, a bachelor's degree in animal science, and a lifelong soft spot for animals led me here: serving the community's four-legged residents and treating every one of them like my own family. I run Waggin' Wheels solo out of a fully self-contained van, which means one dog at a time, no crates, no cage dryers, no barking chaos in the background. Just your pup, me, warm water, and about ninety minutes of undivided attention parked in your driveway.

★★★★★

"Our doodle Waffles used to shake for an hour after the salon. With Kelsi he falls asleep in the van. She trims his face perfectly every single time and I never have to leave my house. Total game changer."

★★★★★

"Our 14-year-old lab can barely do stairs anymore, so loading him in the car was rough. Kelsi comes to us, takes her time, and gives him breaks. He walks out wagging. Worth every cent."

★★★★★

"Two huskies. Blowing coat. I had honestly given up. Kelsi got what felt like a whole third husky out of them and my living room has been fur-free for weeks. She is a magician."

Questions People Actually Ask

Do you need to use my water or electricity?
Nope! The van is fully self-contained — my own fresh water, my own hot water heater, my own power. All I need is a spot to park reasonably close to your door.
How long does an appointment take?
Usually 60 to 120 minutes depending on your dog's size, coat, and how much they want to chat about it. You are welcome to stay home and get things done — I will knock when we are finished.
Do I need to be there the whole time?
Just for the hand-off at the start and the pickup at the end. Plenty of my clients work, run errands, or take a nap in between.
My dog is anxious / reactive / a little dramatic. Still okay?
Honestly, that is exactly why mobile works so well. No waiting room, no other dogs, no cage dryers, no strangers. It is just the two of us and we go at whatever pace your dog needs.
Do you groom cats?
Dogs only for now. I love cats dearly and respect them far too much to pretend otherwise.
What about matted coats?
I will always tell you honestly what is possible. Comfort beats style every time, so if a coat is badly matted the kind answer is usually a short shave-down and a fresh start. We can grow it back out together.
