City and Guilds was the only option of qualification back in the day, so I sat them as I’m a huge believer in education. Was really good as I learnt a lot of extra material and facts that have actually been beneficial over the years.

I had my miniature schnauzer groomed by Carol and she did a fantastic job. Will definitely use her from now on for both my schnauzers

Wendy Walsh

We struggled to find a cat groomer for our cat in Dublin. We've been here four times now and Carol does a great job on our cat. The cat gets matted hair and Carol is excellent at shaving her carefully and leaving her looking neat and tidy. Would highly recommend.

Carol did a great job putting my dog Cara at ease, and did a great job on grooming her too. She looks great!
