I’ve found my niche in working with large, double-coated breeds, especially those that need a proper deshedding session to feel their best.
I groom from a private salon space inside a quiet, welcoming factory setting. It’s not your typical grooming salon—there’s no hustle and bustle, no overwhelming noise. I work one-on-one with each dog, giving them the time, patience, and calm environment they deserve.This setup allows me to connect with each dog individually, to build trust—especially important with the big, sometimes anxious ones. It’s peaceful, positive, and purposeful— Happy healthy dogs

Our dog hated being dried after a bath. It only took the second groom for our anxious boy to be totally calm and happy. Sarah is an amazing groomer who knows dogs and how to make them comfortable and happy. Could not recommend more, she is the absolute best!

Luna always enjoys her experience here.  And most importantly she looks beautiful every time
  Highly recommend 

Always the best service and even better results ! Daisy looks sooo cute and loves her visits here 

Hank loved his wash and feeling 10kgs lighter after a big deshed! 

Super friendly. Best of all, my dog looked happy and comfortable!!!

Absolutely amazing!  Highly recommend Pampered canines for all types of fur babies. Not only is Sarah talented but she’s a natural at it! Thank you very much Sarah, will definitely be bringing the boys to you from now on.

✂️ Feathering Scissor Tidy-Up – Precision with a Soft Touch 🐾

For that polished, just-groomed look without a full haircut, our Feathering Scissor Tidy-Up is the perfect solution. Using professional feathering shears, we gently trim and shape your dog’s coat for a natural, blended finish — no harsh lines or choppy cuts!

This service is ideal for:
✨ Shaping around the face, feet, tail, and legs
✨ Smoothing out uneven areas
✨ Maintaining a soft, flowy look between full grooms
✨ Dogs with feathered coats like Golden Retrievers, Border collies, and Aussie Shepherds

Feathering scissors allow for precision grooming while preserving your dog’s natural style — keeping them looking clean, neat, and effortlessly cute.

✂️ Rehab Groom – $60 (Add-On)
No judgment here — I know life gets hectic! But for oodle breeds, going over 12–14 + weeks without grooming usually means matting, even if the coat looks okay on top. If your dog’s coat can’t be safely brushed out, a shave-down is needed.

This $60 rehab fee is the base charge for all shave-downs and is added to your usual groom price. It covers:
• Extra time for safe grooming
• Equipment wear
• Managing discomfort and sensitive pups

➕ If the coat is severely matted or takes longer due to behaviour, an additional matting fee may apply. Final price will vary.

🔔 Please let me know ahead of time if your dog is matted or overdue. These grooms require more time.

After a rehab groom, dogs should return on a 4–6 week schedule depending on coat length and brushing at home to prevent matting and added fees. Keeps dogs happy and feeling their best.

Matted Coat Removal Fee

Matting can be painful for your dog and adds extra time and care to the grooming process. To ensure your pet’s comfort and safety, a matted coat fee will be added to the standard grooming price when needed.

Matting Fees:
	•	Mild Matting: +$15–$25
	•	Moderate Matting: +$25–$45
	•	Severe Matting / Full Shave-down: +$45–$80+

This fee covers:
	•	Extra time required
	•	Specialized tools and care techniques
	•	Safety and comfort-focused handling

We’ll always assess your dog’s coat before grooming and discuss any additional charges with you first. Regular brushing at home and frequent grooming appointments can help prevent matting and keep your pup happy and healthy!

Sensitive Dog Wash – Shampoo & Conditioner Add-On 🫧

Perfect for pups with delicate skin or allergies, our Sensitive Dog Wash is a gentle and soothing treatment designed to cleanse without irritation. We use premium, hypoallergenic shampoo and conditioner specially formulated for sensitive skin, free from harsh chemicals, dyes, and fragrances.

What’s included:
🌿 Mild, pH-balanced sensitive skin shampoo

🧖‍♀️ Gentle hand wash & rinse for extra comfort
🧼 Ideal for dogs with dry, itchy, or allergy-prone skin

This add-on is ideal for breeds known for skin sensitivities, senior dogs, or any pup needing a little extra TLC.

⏱️ Extra Time/Difficult Dog Handling Fee 🐾

At our grooming salon, your dog’s comfort and safety are always our top priority. While most pups enjoy their spa day, some may need a little extra patience, care, or time to get through the grooming process safely — and that’s okay!

If a dog is overly anxious, uncooperative, aggressive, or requires frequent breaks, we may need to spend significantly more time to ensure a calm, safe experience for both your pet and our groomers.

This additional time and care may involve:
🐶 Working slowly to build trust
🛑 Pausing to avoid overwhelming your pup
🧹 Additional cleanup or equipment resets

Why is there a fee?
Providing this level of care often takes much longer than a standard appointment. The fee reflects the extra time, effort, and attention needed to make grooming a positive (and safe!) experience for your dog — and helps us stay on schedule for all our furry clients.

Behavioural (non-compliant)

You will be notified via text when your furbaby is ready for collection. Please note that after the text has been sent, you will have 25 minutes to collect your pup. A late collection fee of $20 will apply for every additional 25 minutes. For the safety of your furbaby and others, dogs will be crated while waiting.
Thank you for your understanding!
