My name is Sharon Stanton and my business revolves around the care of pets, specifically grooming. We also offer a number of other services - such as walking, fostering and micro-chipping. Our main service is providing grooming courses at every level - from beginners to those wishing to run their own business.

I have been grooming for almost eight years. I started in an out building in my parents back garden and after completing an City and Guilds equivalent Dog Grooming course at 'Smartie Pants' school in Bedford I started my own business.

The training I provide is updated every year by attending regular seminars and training sessions throughout the country.

Following my growing success I then moved into my own building, increasing my client base and appointment capacity.After being there for two years I decided that bigger premises were needed again and moved to where we are now, extending the business to include our Pet Shop. I now have a client base of over 800 customers and we are still expanding. On our staff we have a qualified groomer from South Africa and a nearly qualified vet so we provide our customers a service second to none in our area.
