Prescott Valley, AZ Animal Ordinances: Pet Groomer Rules (2026)

The Prescott Valley Town Code names pet grooming in two places. In the commercial and industrial article, § 13-05-010(D)(26) lists "pet grooming studios, including accessory product sales" inside the Service A use category, next to banks, barber and beauty shops, clinics and libraries. The use table in § 13-05-010(A) gives Service A a "P" in all six zones, with conditions attached by superscript: the CN entry carries notes 4 and 9, the CG entry note 9, the CI entry note 2 and the PM entry note 3. Note 4 caps each individual use at 2,000 square feet of building area and limits repair or fabrication of goods to five people on the premises at any time. Note 9 says outside uses require a conditional use permit under § 13-13-090. Notes 2 and 3 govern open land storage and screening.

For a groomer working from a house, § 13-04-040(B)(5) lists pet grooming as a conditional home occupation. It is allowed as an accessory use to any legal dwelling if the paragraph A requirements are met and the operator is licensed by the applicable state or county agency or, where no such license exists, has obtained a conditional use permit. Paragraph A limits the business to no more than 25% of all buildings on the lot and no more than 200 square feet of any detached accessory building. Clients are allowed only from 7 a.m. through 9 p.m., no more than five per day and one at a time. On-site sales and public display of items for sale are not permitted, outdoor storage of materials or equipment is not permitted, and goods cannot be visible from the street. Every home occupation must comply with the business registration requirements of Article 8-02.
