DOG GROOMING

I provide dog grooming services at my property in Kiriwhakapapa, Masterton (pick up/drop off service available for Masterton*).  ​(Please note I will not be taking on new clients during the month of April 2025; bookings from existing clients are still welcome during this time).

​

Fear Free Grooming - I'm a Fear Free Certified Professional. Founded in the US, Fear Free works to prevent and alleviate fear, anxiety, and stress in pets.  The method uses a combination of reward-based training, close monitoring of stress levels and desensitisation - you can read more about it here.​  

 

My grooming space has been set up with Fear-free principles in mind, on a quiet rural property with only one dog groomed at a time (or dogs from the same family).  Ramps/steps can be used for the table and bath to avoid the stress of being picked up.
