About Fur friends pet services Grooming

---

At fur friends pet services we initially started as a Pet care service business, trading as a franchise company under the name of My Best Friend Dog Care Chigwell. We opened our initial business just 6 months before the first lockdown and really did fear the worst. However our fears were alleviated pretty quickly as our four legged customers came steadily walking through our doors and our business has grown beyond our expectations. Over the past 5 years we have had the best time gaining invaluable hands on experience of providing quality and trustworthy care for our local community of beloved pets. During this time though, we have seen a real need for high quality groomers in the local area, our beloved fur friends often come to us in desperate need of a groom, but their parents frequently struggle to find a good qualified groomer and when they do it can be difficult to get regular appointments appointments. 

nearly 1 year ago we made the decision to expand our already successful pet care business and move into the world of Dog Grooming. 

Our Grooming team is led by Andrea, our experienced and insured, City and Guilds qualified groomer.

Andrea is level 2 and 3 city and guilds qualified and did her training hands on at an elite working salon located in the heart of London. Andrea has a calm, soft and gentle approach to handling dogs and believes in using only positive reward based methods when handling and grooming dogs. she has always had dogs in her life and her earliest pooch memories are of her German Shepard Zara who was the beloved family pet. 

Andrea has a meticulous eye for detail, design and aesthetics.

Nicóla is mainly on cuddle duties, answering the phone, helping to wash and dry when needed, whilst running the walking, doggy daycare and boarding business.

At Fur Friends Pet Services we believe that the welfare of your dog is and always needs to be at the forefront of everything that we do. it is of the upmost importance to us and every decision we make will always have your dogs wellbeing and health at the center of it. In all areas of our services we believe only positive, reward based methods to achieve any and all outcome. we will never use force or negative methods to achieve an outcome. we are a cage free salon and whilst your dog is waiting to be collected they will have free roam of the daycare area. if your dog is frightened or reactive towards dogs then we will make special arrangements until they can be collected.

Most importantly we believe in trustworthy and kind care. having 2 of our own fur babies  we take pride in treating each of our fury customers as one of our family members and would not provide any thing less then what would for our own babies.
