From Shabby to Chic
A change in career brought a lifelong animal lover to dog grooming — and it turned out to be the most natural fit imaginable. After completing formal qualifications in Dog Grooming and Behaviour/Training (including basic care for dogs), the home studio in Box Hill North opened its doors.
The name says it: every dog arrives however they arrive — tangled, muddy, scruffy — and leaves looking their absolute best. Not because it's fast, but because the time is taken to do it properly.
"At first, it may take longer than a normal grooming session — but in my experience, once they start trusting you, future sessions are shorter. It's worth the patience."
This is a home-based studio, not a commercial salon. There’s no conveyor belt of back-to-back appointments, no crate between sessions. One dog at a time, in a calm and familiar environment, handled by someone who genuinely loves the work.
