Coonan Pampered Pets Dog Grooming

It is a very daunting experience leaving your pet for the first time with a stranger. I for one totally understand, so here is a little bit about myself to reassure you that your pet is in safe hands. I opened Coonan Pampered Pets in 1996, first in Mitcham and then Merstham.

I have had experience in other animal professions: Veterinary practices, the RSPCA and Boarding Kennels and Cattery; where they incorporated a dog/cat grooming business and where I spend 5 years. This is a quotation from the manageress, Maureen, (who at the time worked for the kennels; now owner of Pooch Parlour) 'We were all sad to see her leave. I for one have seen many staff come and go, and I felt particularly sad to see this work colleague "move on". I considered her my equal and her care for the animals is something that has to be seen to be appreciated and I have rarely said that about any of my work colleagues. She will be greatly missed'. I have owned and still have many animals - ranging from the smallest - guinea pigs,rabbits, cats to the biggest - German Shepherds. My commitment to my pets is extremely important to me. I do my up most to keep them safe, to exceed a happy and healthy life no matter what disabilities or hurdles they may encounter in their life. I will only deal with the best vets when it comes to one of my fury friends. Therefore, any animal that steps in to my parlour is treated as one of my own; I would not have it any other way.
