Short BARK & Sides

IT’S HAPPENING!! 🤩🤩

As most of you know my time as Short Bark & Sides is coming to an end & I’m embarking on a new, super exciting chapter!

From Tuesday 10th February I’ll be working within in their brand new, deluxe groom room. Sabine, Urs & their team have created such an amazing space, every detail has been carefully considered with the comfort & wellbeing of your doggies being top priority! I can’t believe my luck that I get to be part of it.

I’d like to say a huge thank you to every one of my clients; old & new, for your support over the years. From what started as a hobby in my parents’ garage to have led me here 9 years later is remarkable. All thanks to you & your lovely pups! I’m forever grateful! I can’t wait to bring you all with me on this next adventure!

For now here’s a sneak peak at the new space!

Thank you
Lauren 🐾❤️

As many of you know, I have returned to work following a lovely maternity leave with my little boy and I am now doing less hours than before.

I have decided to launch a waiting list where I can then offer cancellation spots, odd gaps etc.

Thank you 🐾
