Hi Everyone!

Welcome to 2025 🎉🎉🎉

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Years!

Just a little reminder, that the pricing schedule for 2025 is now in effect!

Please don't stress.. most of you are already inline with said pricing... but there are a few that aren't and may be looking at an increase of approx $5 - $10 depending on your pooches grooming needs.

Please understand it is necessary at times to make these changes in order for me to continue to work, covering my products, utilities, maintenance/upgrading of my equipment and of course my time (although, I don't fully cover this 😉) so I can continue to provide you and your pooch with a quality groom!

Thank you all once again for your continued support. Means the absolute world to me that you trust me with your babies and allow me to do what I love!

So Excited to see what 2025 brings..see you all soon!

Much love,
Mel ☺️🐾

Dear Valued Pawrents,

I thought it was about time "The Doggy House" uploaded an official Pricing Schedule. Effective as of 1st January 2025.

Please note there are some changes/ fine tuning of pricing. Most of you are already inline with this schedule.

You will all be informed in time, via reminder text, if your doggy's grooming costs are affected.

I always want to be able to provide you and your furbabies with the best service and care possible, at an appointment pace that is not stressful for your pets. In order to do this, I need to occasionally raise my prices to keep everything in balance.

I can't thank you all enough for trusting me with your precious pooches, and your ongoing support!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Much Love,
Mel Xx

Hi Everyone,

Hope you're all well and finding reprieve from this weather!

This is just a quick message to apologise of I've missed a call... a message... a comment...
Work life/dance life/ personal life has been busy! Finding a balance has proven quite difficult, and so close to christmas..one of the busiest times of the year! And this week is looking to be a record breaker! So please be patient with me, it's only lil ol me running the show 🤣🤷‍♀️

Finally, The Doggy House weekly VIP Reels are all up-to-date and uploaded!

Just to also let you know I'm absolutely jam packed booked up for the remainder of the year. At this stage I'm not taking on any newbies. I will reassess this well into the new year!

One final note.. I will be taking 2 weeks leave from January 10th 2025, but will put out an official notice within the next week!

Who's all ready/prepared for Christmas? Not me! 🤦‍♀️

Much love,
Mel 😊🐾

I'm still here... ! 🤣
Sorry guys for the lack of posting... I have some catch up to do! There's a VIP Reel in the making (from 2 weeks ago)

Last week I was off with yet again another viral infection... in the lead up to my end of year dance concert, on Saturday!

Today I'm back to work... already exhausted haha but I'm here.
Please be patient while I bet back into the swing of things!

I will answer all message as soon as I can

PS. Check out my new Apron! ❤️👌🐾

Much love,
Mel 😊❤️🐾

EDIT... just so there's no confusion. If you have been bringing your pooch to me but aren't on a regular grooming schedule, your doggy is still welcome!
It just means there may be a bit of a wait around my customers on a regular grooming schedule.
Sorry if I've caused any confusion.

Hi Everyone,

I've been holding off with this post... but it's time.. at this point, I'm temporarily not taking on new doggies.. I'm fully booked and don't have the capacity to take on anymore Doggies, right now!

My regular Doggies need not worry as you all have a permanent spot according to your grooming schedule!

I will update when The Doggy House has the capacity to take on newbies again!

Thank you everyone for your ongoing support! It means so much to me, that you trust me with your furbabies and I have opportunity to do what I love to do!

Much love,
Mel ❤️ 🐾

Hey Everyone,

Just wanna say "Hi" and let you know I'm still here 🤣

The last couple of weeks, life has been very busy.. and then last week I came down with the dreaded flu. Happy to say I'm some what on the mend. Unfortunately I've developed a secondary chest infection.. but I'm getting there!

Sorry for the delay in updating with The D🐶ggy
H🏠use weekly Reels. I know how much you look foward to seeing your furbabies in their spot light 😍.. but they're up and ready for viewing! Better late than never.

Enjoy!

Mel ❤️

Yep! The flu got me...
The Doggy House has been forced to rest! I will be off for this week and back to normal as of next week. I'm already in the process of rescheduling your pooches. Thank you for your understanding. I'm sorry if this has caused an inconvenience🙏 🐶🏠🐾❤️
