GroomQuoteHow much does it cost to groom a Maltese?
Typical starting range
$65–$80
This is a national starting range for a Maltese with a well-maintained coat and no add-ons. Matting, temperament, and your ZIP code can all move the real number.
Size: Small
Under about 20 lb (Chihuahua, Yorkie)
Coat: Long
Flowing coat, needs regular trims (Shih Tzu, Yorkie)
Maltese temperament
Maltese are gentle and people-oriented, usually calm for grooming, though their small size and delicate build call for extra-careful handling.
Grooming a Maltese
The long, silky white coat mats easily and shows dirt fast, so it needs brushing every day or two - many pet owners keep it clipped short rather than maintaining the floor-length show coat.
How often does a Maltese need grooming?
Every 4-6 weeks, plus regular brushing between visits so the coat doesn't tangle.
