Q. Can you remove dog hair?
A. Yes, we use different methods and pet hair tools to remove the hair.
Q. Why do you charge extra to remove dog hair?
A. It takes a lot longer to do a valet with pet hair so we charge extra for the time it'll take us to remove it. We don't always charge if there's a small amount of hair.

A. It depends on the condition of the vehicle, but on average - a mini valet takes 1 hour & full valets take 2 hours.
