Our salon was thoughtfully designed to minimise noise and create a more relaxed environment for every dog that walks through our doors. Combined with experienced groomers who work patiently and at your dog’s pace, it helps make grooming a positive experience rather than an overwhelming one.

Every dog is different, but we believe a calm space can make all the difference.

If you’re looking for a quieter, gentler grooming experience, we’d love to welcome you to The Dog Barber.

Book online via the link in our bio or give us a call.

• $7 each

Because every fresh groom deserves a delicious finish.
