About me
Hi, I’m a fully qualified, multi award winning dog groomer, my salon is modern, clean and a friendly environment to bring your dog to.
I am two times winners of the Pet Industry Federations grooming salon of the year and I have been placed at many grooming nationals at Championship level, I’ve even scooped 1st place in America at one of the biggest grooming competitions.
I am a master groomer and a member of the guild of master groomers, working to the highest standards, tailoring your dogs groom to your requirements or to breed standard.
I am also lucky enough to work in the media featuring live on channel 4 numerous times and also as the judge on BBC1s prime time Pooch Perfect show.
