UPDATED PRICELIST!

Below is price list updated for 2025 unfortunately with everything in this world going up, i have to too😪

Please note these prices are ‘FROM…’ so although
ouch it says $95 it can vary with size, matting, temperaments and also style of clip you are wanting.
Although a light trim sounds like less work…. It isn’t 😁
These prices also now include GST, so please if you require a GST receipt let me know and I can email one through.

I appreciate you all beyond words as you are what makes this business go round and keeps me doing a job that I absolutely love, while meeting new faces, both human and four legged!

WAIMATE ANNOUNCEMENT! 📣
Some are aware some maybe not (I’ve lost track of who i have spoken to about it 🤦🏼‍♀️)

After 5 years it saddens me that I am closing my books in Waimate. Come September I will no longer be traveling to Waimate for grooming. With Hunter turning 5 (yes 5!) it will no longer be able to fit into my day.

I will however still be grooming from Temuka and I know, and appreciate that some of you are wanting to continue using me and are willing to travel to Temuka to do so. If you would like help finding another groomer, mobile or just closer I am more than happy to pass on their numbers and also grooming information if wanted.

Worried about your precious pup getting cold over winter?

Now is a great time to book in a grooming before the cold weather really kicks in, this insures time for hair growth before it really sets in

It is important to keep your regular appointments during this time, even if you want to keep them long, to minimise the cause of matting by being thoroughly brushed out and high knotting areas being trimmed

There is always a ‘winter clip’ option where we can groom your dog a few lengths longer to keep cover over the colder months and then return to the ‘summer clip’ for the warmer months.
A winter clip will also insure quicker drying after being out on the dewy morning grass (with longer hair they stay wet for longer making them colder)

To make a booking or for any enquiries phone 0210346374 or private message our page

We still have a few spots left for the month of May.

They are never ‘just a dog’ they are family ♥️

JUST A DOG
“From time to time, people tell me, "lighten up, it's just a dog,"
or "that's a lot of money for just a dog." They don't understand
the distance traveled, the time spent, or the costs involved for "just a dog."
Some of my proudest moments have come about with
"just a dog." Many hours have passed and my only company
was "just a dog," but I did not once feel slighted.

Some of my saddest moments have been brought about by
"just a dog," and in those days of darkness, the gentle touch of "just a dog" gave me comfort and reason to overcome the day.
If you, too, think it's "just a dog," then you will probably understand phrases like "just a friend," "just a sunrise," or "just a promise."
"Just a dog" brings into my life the very essence of friendship, trust, and pure and unbridled joy.
"Just a dog" brings out the compassion and patience that makes me a better person.

Because of "just a dog," I will rise early, take long rides and look longingly to the future. So for me and folks like me, it's not "just a dog" but an embodiment of all the hopes and dreams of the future, the fond memories of the past, and the pure joy of the moment.
I hope that someday they can understand that it's not "just a dog," but the thing that gives me humanity and keeps me from being "just a man." So the next time you hear the phrase "just a dog," just smile--because they "just don't understand." - Author Unknown
