Calm grooms.
Happy dogs.
No drama.
An independent dog grooming salon in Cheltenham, with a mobile-to-home service for the dogs that find the salon a bit much. No muzzles, no rush, no nail-clip drama — just kind grooming, properly done.
Mobile rounds: Mon & Fri
Honest pricing.
No surprises.
Prices vary slightly with coat condition and size. We'll always quote before any extras — and there's no charge if your dog tells us they've had enough.
Bath & Brush
Warm bath, blow-dry, brush-out, nails, ear clean. Lovely between full grooms.
Full Groom
De-shed, breed-appropriate cut, bath, blow-dry, nails, sanitary trim. The works.
Hand-strip
Proper hand-stripping for terriers and spaniels. Keeps the coat working as it should.
Mobile-to-Home
We come to you in our converted van. Ideal for older dogs or salon-shy pups.
Cat Grooming
By appointment only, in a calm quiet room. De-mat, brush-out, bath where suitable.
Same dog. Happier coat.
I'm Sophie.
This is what I do.
I trained at Berkeley Dog Grooming Academy in 2013 and got my City & Guilds Level 3 the year after. Fear-free certified, which means I've been trained to spot stress signals early and stop before things escalate.
I work alone — never more than one dog in the salon at a time. Every dog gets full attention, and the nervous ones don't have to deal with strange dogs barking around them.
I groom my own three: a wiry Border Terrier, a daft Labrador and a cat who tolerates me on alternate Tuesdays.
Three steps.
No drama.
Meet & sniff
First visit is unhurried. Your dog meets us, looks around, gets a treat. We talk coat and behaviour.
Calm grooming
Slip-resistant table, hydraulic bath, soft lighting. Plenty of breaks. No muzzles — if a dog isn't happy, we stop.
Home happy
We text a photo when they're done. You pick up a calm, lovely-smelling dog who's had a nice morning.
“Our Bertie used to shake the whole drive home from his old groomer. Sophie's the first person he's actually trotted back to. Calm, kind, properly thorough — we're not going anywhere else.”
Let's get your dog
looking lovely.
We usually have spaces within 7–10 days. Mobile rounds fill faster, so get in touch early. First-time bookings include a free 15-min meet & sniff before we groom — no pressure.
