Testimonials

Lottie

Tracey

I took my nearly 17 year old, nervous Sussex spaniel Lottie to Soph for the first yesterday. Lottie was in desperate need of grooming as my usual groomer is on maternity leave. Soph was really friendly and professional and did an amazing job on Lottie. I was so happy that I’ve already booked Lottie’s next appointment.

Rui

Dannii

Sophie is amazing with my little dog! He’s very nervous when it comes to being groomed and because of this we’ve been turned away by a few in the past but Sophie always gets the job done and he comes out with his tail wagging and immaculate fresh hair cut every time!

Margo

Janet

Margo had her first visit for a puppy groom today…met by the lovely Sophie who immediately put us both at ease…Margo looked amazing when she came out. Thank you Sophie. X

Teddy

Sarah

Took our 14 week old puppy for his first prince groom. Such a lovely welcome from the staff. Was totally impressed with his little groom and his bath, he looked even more adorable. Highly recommend them, will definitely be coming back

Dodger

Karen

I recently took my Shih tzu, Dodger, to Cleo’s Castle Pet Services for a full groom, and I am beyond impressed with their work. Dodger is extremely sensitive and has been to six different grooming shops, where he often upset other dogs with his crying and was difficult for the groomers to handle. Despite this, Cleo’s Castle did a fantastic job grooming him. The staff were professional, friendly, and incredibly patient with Dodger. I was amazed that they were willing to have him back for another grooming session. The service was beautiful, and they even provided a lovely gift bag at the end of his first grooming. We are definitely booked for a second grooming. Highly recommend Cleo’s Castle Pet Services!

Terms and Conditions

PAYMENTS

Payment should be made on collection of your dog. I can accept payment by cash or card. Prices are subject to change without prior notice.

GROOM FEEDBACK

If you are dissatisfied with any aspect of your pet’s groom please let me know within 3 days (preferably, before you leave). Reasonable requests to alter the trim will be dealt with immediately or changes noted for the next groom. Please don’t leave negative feedback anywhere without contacting me first, I take great pride in our service and want my clients to feel the same.

PHOTOGRAPHS

Your dog may be photographed before, during and after its groom. Photographs may be used on my website, social media or other printed materials.

NO DRYING CAGES

I have a strict no drying cages policy. All of my clients’ are finished by hand by myself. I choose this for the safety and well-being of my clients.

FORMS

By signing the forms, You understand that your pets will be treated with the utmost loving care and attention. You leave your pet(s) at your own risk. You understand that in an emergency, should a vet be required at any time during the grooming process, that the cost will be payable by you. You understand that, if your pets coat is matted, this establishment is not responsible for your pet's skin condition.

DROP OFF

Please be punctual. If you arrive more than 15 minutes late for your appointment we may have to re-schedule. I work by appointment only; the appointment slot allocated for your pet's groom has been booked at your request exclusively. A no-show results in lost income. I treat late arrival as a missed appointment, in which case the deposit you have paid will become non-refundable.

COLLECTION

I work by appointment and do not have the staff or facilities for your pet to stay after the groom has been completed. Any pets not collected at the agreed collection time will incur an additional charge. For every 15 minutes that a pet is kept in holding after the agreed collection time, I will charge £15 per 15 minutes.
