We Built the Grooming Studio We Could not Find
Pet WASH exists because our founder's anxious Labrador deserved better — and so did the bill. Transparent pricing, stress-free handling, and breed expertise aren't extras. They're the standard.
From One Anxious Lab to 200+ Pets a Month
In 2019, our founder Laura spent £65 on a grooming session that was quoted at £40 — and came home to a trembling dog who'd clearly been rushed. That was the last straw. Pet WASH opened six months later with one table, one groomer, and a simple promise: the price you see is the price you pay, and your pet will leave calmer than they arrived. Today we operate a full salon with 12 breed-certified groomers and a mobile unit that covers a 15-mile radius. We've groomed over 8,000 pets across 85+ breeds, and our 92% rebooking rate proves that consistency and care aren't just marketing words — they're measurable outcomes.

The Principles That Shape Every Session
These aren't aspirational values on a wall. They're operational standards every groomer follows daily.
Price Transparency as Policy
Every quote is breed-specific and locked in before booking. If coat condition requires extra work, we call you first — never charge first.
Low-Stress Handling Certification
All groomers complete 40+ hours of fear-free handling training. Anxious pets get extended warm-up time at no extra cost.
Veterinary-Grade Hygiene
Tools and surfaces are disinfected between every pet using hospital-grade solutions. We photograph the clean setup before each session.
Breed-Specific Training
Each groomer specialises in breed families — terriers, spaniels, doodles, flat-faced breeds. Your pet gets a specialist, not a generalist.
