‼️Existing clients‼️

2026 Block Bookings Now Open! ✂️🐾

I am now taking block bookings for 2026! I highly recommend getting organised and securing your appointments early to avoid disappointment — especially if you have preferred days or times.

Please get in touch with your schedule and preferences, and I’ll do my best to accommodate. If something comes up (such as a holiday or doctor’s appointment), it’s absolutely fine to reschedule, as long as plenty of notice is given. Please remember that last-minute cancellations will be subject to my cancellation policy.

Due to weddings and other commitments, I’ll be reducing my weekend availability next year. This makes pre-booking especially important if you’d like a weekend slot.

🗓️ How many weekend appointments are remaining (based on small/medium full grooms):
I may be able to offer limited out-of-hours appointments closer to the time.

This Thursday 4pm I have space for a small/ medium / Labrador bath appointment.

This will be offered at a slightly discounted rate for training purposes and would suit new clients, existing clients that haven't got an appointment coming up or a full groom client who would like a maintenance bath. Coat must be in decent condition (not compacted / choked with dead hair or matted as we will not be able to dematt your dog in a bath appt)

‼️WE ARE HIRING‼️
📍Tranent, East Lothian

Due to an increased demand we are looking for another talented dog groomer to join our team on a self employed basis. This would suit an experienced and confident groomer who is capable of working with all breeds / temperament of dog to a high standard and can work well within our existing team. Unfortunately this is not a training position and would not suit a groomer who is newly qualified.

Hours are flexible and you are in charge of your own diary. You will be responsible for your own clients however we will support you and help you with this along with anything else we can do. We have clients that we can recommend to you if we do not have the availability ourselves. You set your own prices (so long as you are not undercutting)

Electric table, bath, dryers and towels are included in rent. You will need to provide all the small equipment and shampoo. Our salon is 1-2-1 (by appointment only, so no walk ins distracting dogs) with separate rooms and a large reception area. We want to create as calm and stress free environment as possible for the dogs.

We are a very supportive team and would like to see each other grow within the industry. We continually strive to learn more via webinars, seminars etc. Since opening in December 2025 our salon has gained recognition and awarded within the community and we have placements in dog grooming competitions which we are proud of. We strive to continue on this positive path.

If you think that you would work well with us please get in touch with your CV along with examples of your work via social media, indeed or email [email protected]
