What we do

Everything your dog needs to look and feel their best

From a quick freshen-up to a full breed groom, we keep your dog comfortable from start to finish. Here is some of what we do.

Full Groom

A complete service with bath, blow-dry, breed-specific haircut, nails, and ears, so your dog leaves looking and feeling their best.

Bath and Tidy

A warm, thorough bath and blow-dry with a light tidy-up, perfect for between full grooms or for low-maintenance coats.

Breed-Specific Haircuts

Classic cuts tailored to your dog's breed and coat, or a custom style if you have something in mind.

Nail Trims

Quick, gentle nail trims to keep your dog comfortable and on their feet, with patient handling for fussy paws.

De-Shedding

A deep clean and de-shed treatment to clear out loose undercoat and keep shedding around the house under control.

Anxious and Nervous Dogs

Extra time, patience, and a calm approach for dogs who find grooming stressful, so every visit feels safe and kind.

Pricing depends on your dog's size, coat, and condition. Call or text and we will give you a friendly quote.
Grooming day

What a visit looks like

No surprises, no stress. Here is how your dog's day with us goes.

1

Drop off and say hello

We meet your dog, talk through the cut you want, and note anything special about their coat or temperament.

2

Warm bath and blow-dry

A gentle, warm bath with the right shampoo for their coat, then a careful fluff dry until they are soft and clean.

3

Style, nails and finish

A breed-specific cut or tidy, nails trimmed, ears checked, and a final once-over so everything looks just right.

4

Home happy and fresh

We text you when your pup is ready for pickup, looking sharp, smelling great, and proud of their new look.
