Hi everyone,
I wanted to share an important update with you all.
Since announcing my upcoming house move, I’ve experienced a significant loss of clients, which has unfortunately made it difficult to sustain Mel’s Dog Wash as a full-time business. For the time being, I’ve made the difficult decision to step back from grooming and take on another job until I’m in a position to rebuild my client base.
This means that Mel’s Dog Wash will not be continuing in the same way as before. I know this may be disappointing, and I truly appreciate your understanding and support.
I will still honour the appointments I currently have booked, although my availability will be slightly different. If you have an appointment outside these hours, I may need to adjust it with your agreement:
• Monday: after 1pm
• Tuesday: all day
• Wednesday, Thursday, Friday: evenings (1 appointment only)
Please rest assured that I’ll give you plenty of notice if any changes are required.
I am more than happy to recommend other trusted 1-to-1 groomers in the Staveley area if you need to make alternative arrangements.
This decision has been incredibly hard for me, but I need to prioritise my health and well-being right now. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your loyalty, kindness, and support over the years. I’ve absolutely loved looking after your dogs and will treasure the bond I’ve built with them and with you.
I am happy to answer any questions you may have and I will get back to you later today.
Thank you,
Mel
