Taisa did a great job with my elderly and not too easy anymore pup! She took her time and patience and Pupa loved her. She is usually pretty scared when coming out of groomers but this time she was completely relaxed.

Amazing groom on my show cocker today by Taisa. She was patient with my anxious puppy and made sure he was happy throughout the experience. He looks (and smells) absolutely incredible. 10/10!

Took my 6-month-old poodle, Koffee, to Taisa for his very first groom, and I couldn't be more impressed! He's super excited and full of energy, but Taisa handled him with such care and patience.

My dog, Bella, usually gets nervous during grooming, but Taisa was so patient, kind, and gentle that she actually seemed relaxed and happy. It was obvious that the visit wasn't rushed.

Taisa did a brilliant job grooming my dog at a very affordable price! She even does pick up and drop offs for an additional fee which is super convenient.

Absolutely love the way Taisa groomed my cockapoo Olive. She looks so cute! She also did an amazing job on her teeth with the ultrasonic cleaning.

Excellent service, from someone who clearly adores dogs, and dogs feel comfortable with. That in itself is priceless.

A toy poodle's teddy-bear transformation. Slide the handle to compare the shaggy before with the finished cut.

"Wow what can I say... best dog groomer I have ever come across. Attention to detail is outstanding."

Terms & conditions

The fine print

The short version. Booking an appointment means you've read and agreed to these.

Dog health

Your dog should be fit, healthy, vaccinated and free from parasites. Tell Taisa about any conditions or medication before the appointment.

Matting

De-matting is £25 an hour on top of the groom. Heavily matted coats may need a shave-down, which is £15 extra.

Fleas

Dogs found with fleas get a flea treatment bath and the salon is sanitised. From £20, depending on severity and size.

Payment

Paid in full at the appointment, in cash. That applies to collections and drop-offs too.

Cancellations

48 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule. Without it, the full groom price is still due.

Collection

Collect at the agreed time. There's a 15-minute grace period, then £5 per 15 minutes.

Older & anxious dogs

Elderly dogs are groomed at the owner's risk. Dogs that need sedation can't be groomed, and a groom can be stopped if a dog can't cope safely.

Photos

Photos and videos may be shared on social media. Just say at the start of the appointment if you'd rather they weren't.

Full terms are pinned on Instagram.

How much is a groom?

It depends on your dog's breed, size and coat condition. Send a message with a photo and Taisa will give you a price.

Do you groom puppies?

Yes. First grooms are welcome, and puppies get plenty of time and patience to settle in.

My dog is nervous or elderly. Is that OK?

Grooms are one-to-one, so there's no rush and no other dogs around. Elderly dogs are groomed at the owner's risk, and dogs that need sedation can't be groomed.

What if my dog's coat is matted?

De-matting is £25 an hour on top of the groom. If the coat is too matted to brush out, a shave-down is £15 extra.

How much is teeth cleaning?

£50 for the first ultrasonic deep clean, then £35 per session if you keep it up every 2–3 months.

Can you collect my dog?

Yes, pick-up and drop-off is available for an extra fee. Ask when you book.

How do I pay?

Cash, in full, at the appointment.

What if I need to cancel?

Give 48 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule. Otherwise the full groom price is still due.
