Being a dog owner means caring for your dog in every way: feeding, walking, playing, petting, and grooming. All dogs need grooming to a certain degree, but specific breeds need extra maintenance, which means bringing them to a groomer or doing it yourself.

The advantage of doing it yourself is that you save time and money, but you’ll need to buy a few grooming tools. Shopping for a good grooming kit will also take time. That’s why we did the work for you and developed reviews of 10 of the best dog grooming kits, so you can have the tools to groom your dog yourself or simply touch up their coat in between groomer visits.

The 9 Best Dog Grooming Kits

1. Wahl Arco Cordless Pet Clipper Kit — Best Overall

The best overall dog grooming kit is the Wahl Arco Cordless Pet Clippers. It is cordless, lightweight, and available in pink, champagne, and purple. It has a rechargeable battery that will run for 80 minutes, and the five-in-one blade, combined with being cordless, is quite adaptable.

The clippers can also trim hard-to-reach areas, such as the paws, ears, and face. The kit comes with the clippers, a five-in-one blade, NiMH rechargeable batteries, a storage case, a charger and charging stand, four attachment combs, a cleaning brush with blade oil, and instructions.

However, it is pricey, and the clippers are best for small and medium dogs with smooth and medium coats.

2. Pet Magasin Professional Grooming Set — Best Value

The best dog grooming kit for the money is Pet Magasin’s Professional Grooming Set. It gives you three tools that can work on dogs of any size, with any coat, and cats. It includes a double-sided brush, a de-matting comb, and a long-tooth undercoat rake.

The brush can work on any type of coat, the rake is great for safely thinning out the undercoat, and the de-matting comb effectively removes mats. The combination of all three brushes will help keep shedding to a minimum.

But if you have a smooth-coated dog, you only need one of these brushes, and the brush itself seems too small for large breeds.

3. Wahl Bravura Lithium Ion Cordless Clipper Kit — Premium Choice

The Wahl Bravura Lithium Ion Cordless Clipper Kit is our premium choice pick. The clippers run on a lithium-ion rechargeable battery that only needs a 60-minute charge and can even run while plugged in and charging. It can run for 90 minutes at full speed up until the battery is drained. It has an adjustable five-in-one stainless-steel blade and is durable enough to work on dogs, cats, horses, and other livestock. It’s lightweight and quiet and comes with six attachments, a case, a charging base and cord, a brush, and oil.

The main issue is its price. Also, the blades might jam up on long, thick hair on certain models.

4. oneisall Cordless Dog Shaver Clippers

The oneisall Cordless Dog Shaver Clippers are affordable rechargeable clippers with a fixed stainless-steel blade and ceramic moving blade. The blades are detachable, making them easy to clean. It is quiet and doesn’t vibrate much, so it shouldn’t spook your dog. It comes with six attachments, a charging cord, oil, a brush, a metal comb, and a pair of scissors.

One problem is that it might be too small for large dogs. The clippers aren’t wide, and grooming your dog will take a while. Additionally, the battery doesn’t always hold enough charge for a full session.

5. Sminiker Professional Rechargeable Cordless Clippers

Sminiker’s Professional Rechargeable Cordless Clippers are affordable, and you get multiple items with this kit, including four attachments, a brush, a charging cord, scissors, a comb, a nail file, and nail clippers. The blade is made of titanium, there’s a ceramic moving blade, and the unit makes minimal vibrations and is quiet. On a full charge, the clippers typically last up to 70 minutes.

But it doesn’t include blade oil, and the clippers take 5 hours to charge fully.

6. Wahl Lithium Ion Pro Series Cordless Animal Clippers

Wahl’s Lithium Ion Pro Series Cordless Animal Clippers work for dogs of all sizes and have self-sharpening high-carbon-steel blades. The battery enables you to use it for 2 hours, but it has a 15-minute quick-charge option for it to work instantly. It takes 3–5 hours for a full charge. The kit includes four colorful attachments, making it easy to identify the right guard for your dog, as well as a brush, oil, scissors, and a comb.

The issue is that these are large clippers, so while they’re great for medium and large dogs, you’ll want to find another product if you have a small breed. Additionally, the power button can be difficult to press.

7. Andis UltraEdge 2-Speed Detachable Blade Dog Grooming Clipper

The Andis UltraEdge 2-Speed Detachable Blade Dog Grooming Clippers are great for any coat type and breed size. There are two speeds, and the blade and drive cap are removable for easy cleaning. The Andis clippers have a 14-foot cord, so it’s easy to maneuver around your dog, and the power switch is lockable, so you can’t accidentally turn it off.

However, the clippers are expensive and don’t come with any attachments. They also tend to get hot after a while.

8. Frisco Beginner Grooming Kit for Dogs & Cats

Frisco’s Beginner Grooming Kit for Dogs & Cats gives you basic tools for grooming your dog and is inexpensive! You get a double-headed brush with bristles and rounded pins on either side, a slicker brush, a double-sided flea comb, and nail scissors. Both brushes are designed to remove loose hair and mats, and the flea comb has fine- and wide-toothed sides, which will remove pests and debris. The nail scissors will keep the nails well-trimmed.

But the kit is meant for small dogs because the brushes are tiny. Also, the slicker brush might be uncomfortable for some dogs.

9. Andis Pro 7-Piece Detachable Blade Pet Clipper Kit

The Andis Pro 7-Piece Detachable Blade Pet Clipper Kit has four attachment guards, blade oil, and a hard case. The clippers’ blades can be detached for easy cleaning or replaced with other Andis blades. They are ergonomically designed to fit comfortably in your hand and have a 12-foot-long cord. The motor is powerful yet quiet.

Unfortunately, the cord might be a bit short because the clippers need to stay plugged in. Also, they get hot after a while, and some dog owners might find they are too heavy.

Buyer’s Guide: Choosing the Best Dog Grooming Kit

Before you buy a grooming kit, read through this buyer’s guide, which covers a few points that might help you make the right purchase.

Size

Always read the fine print before you purchase grooming tools. One of the biggest mistakes that a dog owner can make is to assume that a tool will be big enough for their large dog or small enough for their toy breed. Check the dimensions of the tools and read the reviews. You don’t want to buy clippers only to find they are too tiny for your giant breed.

What’s Included

Always check what comes in your grooming kit. Most have a carrying case, but not all do. Blade oil and a brush are essential to maintaining a set of clippers. If the clippers don’t come with these items, you’ll need to purchase them separately.

If you need other items, such as nail clippers or scissors, and they aren’t in the kit, you’ll need to buy them yourself.

Your Dog’s Coat

Do a bit of research about your dog’s coat before investing in grooming tools. Look it up online or speak to your vet. Not every set of combs, brushes, or clippers will work for every coat type, and you’ll want something made specifically for your dog’s breed.

Also, watch a few videos on how to trim your dog’s coat and how to handle a pair of clippers. This can make the difference between a nice trim and a straggly mess!

If you need guidance on keeping your dog’s coat well-groomed, we suggest you speak to a vet.

If you need to speak with a vet but can't get to one, head over to PangoVet. It's our online service where you can talk to a vet online and get the advice you need for your dog — all at an affordable price!

Price

You get what you pay for, though many inexpensive tools can work quite well, especially for amateurs. But generally, the cheaper the clippers are, the more likely they’ll break down quickly or won’t do the job right. You should read reviews, though remember that a few of the negative reviews might be from people who didn’t know how to use the tools correctly.
