“Fantastic dog groomers, my Mum took Tess for her first full Monty groom and Tess loved it! She was a little nervous never having been to a groomers before and Adam was fantastic with her. Communication great throughout, facilities excellent and the booking process exceptionally easy and straightforward!”
“The result was absolutely perfect, and we're so happy with Juno's groom. They kept us updated throughout the whole process, which gave us so much peace of mind, and they truly went above and beyond for us. You can really tell how much care and love they put into what they do.”
“Adam was very welcoming today for our first visit. Our dog can be nervous but he clearly has a lovely way with them as she has come out with the best cut. Adam listened to what we wanted and delivered amazingly.”

“Very happy with the way that they groomed our dog. She smelled wonderful too. I dropped her off and they took a couple of hours to wash and groom her and then delivered her back to us. Sterling service, will definitely use them again.”
“Recently visited barks and tails dog grooming for the first time, Adam did a fantastic job with our spaniel. He made us feel very welcome and did an amazing job with our overgrown pooch. Would highly recommend.”
