Hi, I'm Angela.
I've been grooming dogs for 34 years, and I'm an International Certified Master Groomer. But what matters most to your dog is simpler than any certificate: time, patience and a calm pair of hands.
That's why I only ever groom one on one, in a parlour at my home in Arborfield. Yours is never rushed, just given my full attention, from the first brush to the finishing bow. Time and patience for nervous dogs, with gentle handling for older dogs, and every dog goes home looking and feeling their best.
I've two poodles of my own, Pawsha and Fonzi, so I know just how precious your dog is to you.

Loved by local dogs & their humans.
"Exceptional service from Angela. She is extremely knowledgeable and very skilled at dealing with nervous dogs. I wouldn't take my dog anywhere else. Her custom salon is warm in winter, cool in summer and my dog comes home happy and looking incredible."
"Angela has been a fabulous groomer to both my dogs. She ensures that they are happy and will always give them love and cuddles! Jack and Russell love going to the groomer and they come home looking dapper and smell amazing. Highly recommend."
"Absolutely amazing! She did a fantastic job with my Chester, and I couldn't be happier with the service. So lovely, caring and professional with him. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog groomer!"
