Riley & Rex - Non-Slip Handle Pet Nail Clipper
Description
TL;DR: The Riley & Rex Non-Slip Handle Pet Nail Clipper is an at-home grooming tool with stainless steel blades and a textured, non-slip handle for safer trims. Available in Small and Large, it suits dogs (and smaller pets) of different sizes and is a practical pick for routine nail care near me.
Regular nail trims keep dogs comfortable on walks and help prevent overgrown claws from affecting posture and mobility. This clipper is built around two simple priorities: a clean cut and a secure grip while you work.

- Non-slip, textured handle to improve control and reduce slippage mid-trim.
- Two size options: Small (approx. 4.72″ blade length) and Large (approx. 6.25″).
- Designed for routine, at-home nail care as part of a standard grooming kit.

Who is it for?
This clipper is made for dog owners who prefer handling nail trims at home instead of booking a grooming appointment each time. The non-slip handle is particularly helpful for anyone new to trimming, or for steady, careful work on older dogs — a useful option if you've been searching for nail care near me that you can do yourself.
It's a straightforward alternative for households that don't want to rely on a nail care spa for every routine trim, while still giving you a controlled, comfortable grip during the session.
Feeding & use
Trim small amounts at a time, cutting below the quick (the pink area visible in lighter nails). Keep styptic powder on hand in case of a nick, and reward calm behaviour between cuts to build a positive routine.
Aim to trim every 3–4 weeks, or when you hear nails clicking on hard floors. Short, consistent sessions are easier on anxious dogs than long, occasional ones.
Pair it with the rest of your grooming kit
Round out at-home nail care and grooming with the Riley & Rex - Non-Slip Handle Slicker Brush for detangling, or the Riley & Rex - Pet Grooming Glove for loose-hair removal during bath time. Cat owners may prefer the smaller, cat-specific Dexypaws - Cat Nail Clipper for more delicate claws.
Available for same-day pickup at our North York, Toronto storefront, or ships Canada-wide.
