So this is the whole story behind Moore than just a groom Ltd came about 🐾So, I thought I’d share a little more about ME now that I’ve actually taken some time out! 😂
My little business started with what can only be described as a slightly bonkers idea… followed by my husband and fabulous father-in-law building me a brick shed. 😂🧱 Because apparently when you have a midlife crisis, you don’t buy a sports car… you get a dog grooming salon!
I worked in housing and care for 26 years. My whole career was dedicated to helping people, and I’m genuinely proud to say I changed many, many lives for the better. ❤️ I absolutely loved the people side of it, and if I’m honest, that’s the bit I do miss.
But eventually came the point where I thought, “I actually cannot do this anymore.” Stress, health, life and probably a healthy dose of midlife crisis all joined forces and I finally called it. I resigned.
Then I thought… what next?
Obviously… DOGS. 🐶😂
So I trained as a dog groomer, gained my Level 3 Diploma, became first-aid trained and I’m now a qualified AIMs instructor, which means I can even train YOU to issue your own qualifications!
From 26 years in housing and care to standing in a brick shed covered in dog hair… honestly, the career path makes perfect sense if you don’t think about it too hard. 😂🐾
And because you’re getting the full me, I’m also a very happily married mum of three.
My eldest lives in Brazil, where he’s a football coach and teaches English as a second language. 🇧🇷⚽️
My middle one is almost qualified as an electrical engineer. ⚡️
And my youngest is an environmental engineer. 🌱
So between them, I’ve somehow raised one who can coach football, one who can probably rewire your house and one who might save the planet… and I groom dogs. 😂
And this is me and my husband, the man who apparently thought building a brick shed for my mad idea was a perfectly sensible thing to do! ❤️
I genuinely love what I do, I love meeting all your lovely dogs (even the ones who arrive looking at me like I’ve personally offended their ancestors 😂), and I’m so grateful for every single person who supports my little business.
So if you’re local and have any questions, need a groom, fancy a chat or just want to know whether your dog really does need that haircut…
I absolutely welcome all your enquiries. 🐶❤️
Thank you for supporting my crazy little career change. Turns out the midlife crisis wasn’t such a bad idea after all! 😂✂️🐾
