“My dog is quite timid and can get scared easily, having had a few bad experiences with other groomers I took her to Anita and the difference was incredible. She takes such good care of her and Mabel always gets excited when I drop her off”
“Not only did she come out transformed, she came out wagging and happy. Anita is patient and kind we'll definitely be back and recommend her without hesitation.”
“Henry our 4 year old Spinone went for his first ever groom with Anita, we weren't very hopeful as we struggle to get anywhere near him with a brush and he looked a real mess. We were absolutely amazed when we picked him up at just how he looked.”
“Anita is so knowledgeable & only has one dog in her grooming room at a time, so it's a relaxed atmosphere for the dogs. Ava always looks beautiful after her groom and is so happy and chilled.”
“He isn't the easiest dog to groom but she knows what he's like with his funny little ways so always gives him a break if he needs it”
“Anita was knowledgeable about different types of dog coats and their grooming needs. Our Border Terrier was happy and relaxed with her and looked very handsome after his grooming”
