“Jen has been grooming our anxious cockapoo since early 2025. He comes back relaxed and looking & smelling great every time. Her background as a dog behaviourist has helped turn grooming into a positive experience for him and we can't thank her enough. … She is polite, professional, always keeps us updated on progress, and clearly LOVES dogs.”
“Jen has so much patience with him and he has grown to love her, which is a big deal because I could count on one hand the amount of people he's accepted. She takes her time and is so gentle with him. After every visit he looks utterly adorable and smells divine. The cute little bow on his collar is a lovely touch. I would not go anywhere else now.”
“Jen clearly adores animals and goes above and beyond in caring for them, keeping them safe, and giving them lots of exercise and fun. She is always very flexible in helping us when needed. And our dog smells absolutely gorgeous after one of her blueberry baths!”
“Jen has been such a help with grooming my dog. She is great at getting all the loose hairs out without making him uncomfortable and it's clear she loves all the dogs who come in.”
“Her grooming service is also highly recommended, conducted to her usual exceptionally high standards. Reassuring to know your dog is loved and cared for as much as at home.”
“Jen did a fantastic job of giving our elderly dog a fantastic groom. Would highly recommend”
