A home-based dog grooming studio in Nelson East, between the Brook and Maitai rivers and about five minutes' walk from the Nelson city centre. The website says the owner-groomer is Nelson's only Certified Master Groomer, a member of the National Dog Groomers Association of New Zealand, and a certified pet aromatherapist. The studio describes its work as personalised, holistic and unhurried, with a calm, homely space for dogs. A full groom includes nails clipped and filed, ear cleaning, anal glands checked and cleared if needed, a sanitary trim, a hydrobath with Smith & Burton shampoo and conditioner, and a brush and blow dry. The website says prices can change, and asks people to call or text 021 1123 890 to book.
Customers say the groomer has a real gift with dogs, and that their dogs are content and happy in the studio. One says the dog comes home clean, smelling lovely and looking perfect. Another says the groomer goes above and beyond, including helping with a dog's behaviour during grooms. Customers mention the grooming quality, the cut, the wellbeing of the dogs and the smell of the grooms most often.
