Grooming Marvellous

Grooming Marvellous is a well-established dog grooming salon based in Hoddesdon, offering a comprehensive range of pet grooming services. First opened in July 2007, the business has grown in popularity thanks to its clean, bright, and friendly environment. The salon is run by Jade Adams, an experienced and qualified groomer who is trained in Canine First Aid. The team is professionally trained to an advanced level in the latest techniques and is fully insured, ensuring the highest standard of care for every animal.

The business provides a full suite of grooming services, including bathing with double shampoo and conditioning, drying, clipping, scissoring, trimming, and hand-stripping. They also offer plaque removal, ear cleaning, and nail clipping. A key part of their approach is the use of hypo-allergenic shampoos for dogs with sensitive skin or allergies, and they are happy to use any medicated shampoos provided by a vet. The salon is designed to be a relaxed and stress-free experience, with no routine caging and no use of drying boxes, allowing dogs to socialise, play, and wander around with plenty of toys and beds.

Customers consistently praise the salon for its exceptional service and the happy, well-groomed appearance of their pets. Reviews frequently highlight the friendly and knowledgeable staff, with many mentioning specific team members like Daisy and the 'girls' who are described as taking great pride in their work. Clients often note that their dogs leave smelling lovely and looking their best, with one review noting a Kennel Club judge praised a groomed dog as the best seen all year. The team is also commended for their patience and care, particularly with puppies and dogs that may be nervous or have sensitive skin.

In addition to its core grooming services, Grooming Marvellous offers a Puppy Introduction service, which is noted as being particularly good for nervous dogs. The salon also provides a Doggy Day Care service for dogs to play and socialise during the day. The business is situated off the A414 Hertingfordbury Road, with allocated parking available. It shares its premises with GM Academy, a training school for new groomers, reflecting the team's commitment to professional development and high standards.
