“Lily is just great. Having a nervous dog makes you overthink everything you do however she was AMAZING with my Alfie. She won him over, give him time and didn’t rush any part of the service.”
“Lily is a wonderful groomer with a kind heart. My dog Frida has never been a fan of the groomers but Lily is very patient, gentle and understanding. She always puts Frida’s needs first and is building a trusting relationship with her.”
“I took him for a de-shed, wash and trim and Lily did not disappoint! He came home looking, feeling and smelling beautiful!”

“Lily did an amazing job with our dog, she took time to get to know him on his first visit and understood that he could be nervous so took her time with him.”
