controlling blown out coat

We have a loft area in our town home that I want to use for grooming my Sheltie and future Collie. However, my mom is worried that the dryer will get dog fluff everywhere and won't be manageable (a reasonable assumption). I can dry the dogs outside in summer but we live in BC and they will have to be done indoors during the colder months. So, how do those of you with high velocity dryers contain the mess when drying indoors? I would appreciate if those of you who do home grooming could share about your set ups. Do you have a dedicated room? If not, how do you clean up after the floating fluff? Thanks! :)
 
I have setup a doggie spa in my basement. My high velocity dryer does create floating hair! But, I have setup several screens/standing partitions that keep most of the hair contained. You can get either three or four panel ones that fold up when not used.
 
Honestly, I get more dog fur around the house than I do when blow drying the hair.

If I dry them in the house I just hang/drape a sheet behind in the area the fur blows and then just shake it off outside when I'm finished.
