Penwith Pooch Parlour

Penwith Pooch Parlour is a dedicated dog grooming service based in St Hilary, Cornwall, offering a welcoming environment for pets of all sizes and temperaments. The business is run by an experienced owner who has cared for a wide variety of breeds, from small dogs like Yorkiepoos to large breeds such as the Italian Spinone. The focus is on providing a positive and comfortable grooming experience, with a strong emphasis on the welfare of the dog. The team is known for being patient and kind, particularly with older dogs or those who need frequent breaks during their appointment.

The salon provides a range of grooming services tailored to the needs of each dog. These include a Full Groom, which covers a bath, clip/scissoring, hygiene and pad trim, and ear cleaning, starting from £40 for small dogs. There is also a Bath & Brush option for a relaxing wash and blow dry, and a Trim & Tidy service that adds a tidy of feathers and furnishings. For specific coat types, the business offers Hand Stripping, which is assessed on a case-by-case basis. The approach is flexible, with the groom adjusted to suit the dog's personality, mobility, age, and tolerance.

Customers frequently praise the calm and patient nature of the groomers, with many highlighting the attention to detail in the finished look. Reviews often mention the owner, Lindsay, for her kindness and ability to work at a pace that suits the dog. Owners of older dogs, such as Flo, appreciate the frequent breaks and the gentle handling provided during the session. The business has built a reputation for being a reliable and caring choice for pet owners in the local area.
