Services
Dog Grooming
Our professional dog grooming service caters to all breeds, offering de-matting, shampooing, blow-drying, and breed-standard clipping. Using modern equipment, we ensure a stress-free experience while maintaining coat health and appearance. Services include nail trimming, ear cleaning, and styling tailored to your dog's specific needs.
Home Boarding
Secure home boarding with individual or social options in a spacious garden environment. We accommodate special requirements and medication administration, requiring up-to-date vaccinations. Dogs enjoy supervised exercise and 24/7 care in a family home setting, reducing stress compared to traditional kennels.
De-Matting
Specialised de-matting service removes tangles and prevents skin irritation using gentle techniques. Available for all coat types, this treatment restores coat condition while maintaining pet comfort. Regular de-matting promotes skin health and prevents painful matting in long-haired breeds.
Nail Trimming
Professional nail trimming service prevents overgrowth and discomfort using precision tools. We safely shorten nails to appropriate length while minimising stress for anxious pets. Regular maintenance prevents mobility issues and maintains paw health for active dogs.
Collection Service
Convenient collection and return service removes transportation barriers for busy owners. Available on request within our service area, this option ensures timely appointments without requiring client travel. Vehicles are equipped for safe, comfortable pet transport.

Report
Avoid at all costs for dog boarding. You dont see inside the house where your dog stays. And mine dies the following day after collecting her. She as taken no responsibility just passed it over gor insurance to sort. She is now being sued for neglect and reported to council for them to look into. Was told she keeps dogs locked in her kitchen , whilst hers are in the room and they do not socialise. AVOID
