GROOMER PROFILE

Hi, most of you will know me, but I thought I would just reintroduce myself.
I am Tracy. Owner of Tracy's Grooming.
I am old enough to know better, but young enough to still remember.

I have been Grooming for 33 years. I have been Grooming from my house (and mobile) for 31 years (in may this year).

I got into Grooming because I had a Toy Poodle and was a single mum. I had little money and couldn't afford regular professional Grooming. So I thought I would learn how to do it.
I did my training through the Victorian Dog Grooming School. (No longer around). I did it part time. 8 months, 3 days a week) this training was in a very busy salon. There was no paperwork, it was all hands on experience.
My intention was to stay until I learnt how to groom my dog. Well, I fell in love with Grooming and decided to stay and make a career out of it.

My loves... My family, Ron and Tegan. My dogs, both past and present, are my world. Boxers are my passion. I have owned Toy Poodle, Golden Retriever, Border Collies and Kelpies.
I love doing obedience training with my dogs, going for walks and just generally hanging out with them.
My favourite breed to groom is an Airedale. I love the clip and how it looks.
But to be truthful, I love all breeds. They all have different characteristics and needs.

The photo is of myself and my Oldest (present) boy. This is Floyd. He is a dog we bred. He is 8. Red and white Boxer

Look forward to seeing your beautiful furbabies soon.

With the current extreme weather conditions we are experiencing, we have had to put some conditions in place to protect us and your dog.
This applies to ONLY MOBILE!
If the outside temperature is 35*, the inside the van can potentially climb to 40*. (Even with the air conditioning running at capacity.)
It is unsafe for us and also your dog to be in the van in that heat.
We will do our best to get to every one but it may mean we can only work half days. Hence, there may be a delay in getting your dog groomed. I hope you understand. If you are desperate,and can not wait, you are more than welcome to bring your dog to us. The salon is climate controlled at 18*!

Happy New Year to you all.

We have had a couple of cancellations for Thursday and Friday this week, here at the salon. Small dogs only.! If you are interested in these appointments send me a message.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Cheers Tracy and Tegan

12 months ago, I opened my dream. My own salon. After 30 years from working out of my home. I still get a buzz when I go to work in there! Now for many more years.
I want to thank every single client. Your loyalty has made us what we are today.
Lastly, I want to thank my wonderful husband again. Without his vision and hard work, the salon would have never happened.

21/11/2024

Hope everyone is safe and well. Enjoying the Christmas spirit.

We are fully booked until mid January. I do have a cancellation list set up.

Please ensure you are on time to your appointment. If you are even 5 minutes late, that pushes everyone else back.

If you can't make the appointment, please let me know with ample time so I can fill it with someone who is desperate for an appointment.

Also, please be patient with us. We are working at 110% capacity. We are doing our best.

From Tegan and myself, we would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for keeping us busy. For your loyalty over this past year.
We Hope everyone has a safe and happy Christmas and new year.

Unfortunately, we are at capacity, and with Christmas fast approaching, we can not take any new clients.
*** The "new client" is determined as not been to us within the last 6 months!***

We are fully booked for October. A few appointments are left in November and December. Once they are gone, we do not have any more.

Have a great day.

G.S.T. is now payable on all grooms. Effective immediately. (October 2024)
In the new year there will also be a price increase. ($5 or $10 increase, depending on the type of groom)
I have absorbed the costs, for years, but i can no longer. As you are all aware the cost of living has increased. The business expenses have also increased.
I feel, even with the price increase and G.S.T. my prices are still very reasonable.
However, if you are struggling, please come and talk to us. We are happy to work something out.

26/09/2024

Just a reminder that Tegan and I are going to enjoy some time off to recharge.
We are closed from 28th September to 7th October.
I will not have my phone or computer with me.
I will not have internet access.
I will get back to you when I am back.

See you when we are back

Holiday photos.
With school holidays upon us and Christmas just over 3 months away, show me your holiday snaps with your dogs.
I don't take my dogs on holidays, a bit hard with 4 dogs!
Here is a great photo of Daisy and Marley watching over Uluru.
