What owners say about Smiths on Google, in their own words.
We took our XL Bully here and they welcomed him with open arms! Everyone was so lovely and made him feel completely comfortable, which means so much to us. He came out looking and smelling absolutely amazing. You can really tell they care about the dogs they groom.
A huge thank you to the two lovely ladies at Smiths Grooming. They took amazing care when grooming my elderly cat Bella today. At 18 years old this was her first trip to the groomers and she couldn’t have been happier in their expert care.
My name is Ted & I am writing my own review for the wonderful groomer I met today. I don’t mind being groomed but this place made me love being groomed!! The lovely lady washed me so carefully, I went from Sir Stink-A-Lot to Sir Smarty-Pants.
My dog LOVES going to Amy, as soon as he’s in the car park he knows where he’s going and he’s off! Amy is amazing with the animals and they come out happy and extremely well groomed.
I’ve had my British Short Hair groomed at Smiths Grooming twice now and both times she comes back looking like a show cat! Everyone who works there are lovely and you can tell they all love animals by the way they interact with them.
We have been visiting Smiths grooming for years, our cockapoos love seeing Amy and always come out so well groomed and smelling wonderful. There is lots of space to park and Amy is always accommodating when booking an appointment.
Excellent grooming for our spaniel Huxley. He is quite old and totally deaf so grooming could be a challenge, but he obviously enjoyed this experience. Thank you so much. We will be back!
Absolutely amazing, taken both my cats here for a lion cut this year. … She has an affectionate and calm nature … my cats have always come away calm not stressed.
Would highly recommend Smiths Grooming. They were so gentle and loving to my two nervous dogs and made them feel very relaxed. Happy I’ve found a great place for my pups to be pampered.
I had my rag-doll cat groomed with Amy today at Smiths Grooming parlour, I am over the moon with the excellent job she done. Clearly very experienced, kind and professional. Amy was brilliant with my angry cat too.
An absolutely fantastic groom for my goldendoodle, Sandy. I asked for just a little trim and tidy and Amy did an absolutely wonderful job – exactly what I wanted. Sandy was so nicely trimmed and smelled gorgeous.
Wouldn’t take my dog or cat anywhere else! Amy is always so lovely and welcoming when I come down. She takes the time to get my fur babies settled in before she starts bathing/grooming. They always come out looking amazing!
