We know finding the right salon and groomer is the key to your dog’s happiness. It is therefore important that you go to a groomer that can adapt to your dog’s needs and personality.
At 4 Paws we offer one to one grooming and strive to make your dog feel that extra bit special.
At 4 Paws we understand that the majority of dogs do not enjoy grooming and may suffer from anxiety and stress while in the grooming atmosphere, so we ensure a safe, loving environment to put them at ease.
With 4 Paws you can feel confident that we will treat your dog like one of our own.
As we have your dog’s wellbeing at the heart of everything we do, on your first visit you will be asked about your dog’s medical history. We will ask if your dog has any lumps or bumps, if their vaccinations and monthly treatments are up to date, as this will enable us to notice if anything is different from their previous visit, which you may not have noticed from seeing them every day. It also means that we can adapt and alter our methods to suit your individual dog.
After always being drawn to animals, I realised what I truly wanted to do for the first time in my life was dog grooming. Once the decision was made I wanted to do it correctly, so I started studying to be a dog groomer. I subsequently passed both my City and Guilds Level 2 to be an assistant then the Level 3 to be a dog groomer, which has led to my being fully City & Guilds qualified.
Both my husband Ian and myself have lived in Primrose Jarrow all our lives and you will generally see us out and about or walking our 2 dogs locally.
I previously worked in a busy grooming salon in Gateshead, working with all breeds, shapes, sizes and ages together with very different temperaments and personalities.
We have converted our garage and set up a little grooming salon to offer a wide range of dog grooming services, with easy parking available outside our home.
Both Ian and myself will be working in the Dog Grooming Salon, as we want each dog we see to have a happy, enjoyable experience and we want you to continue to come back to see us.
We are both committed to offering a dedicated, reliable, friendly service to make your dog at home while they are in our care.
