About us

Meet Judith Yates, the heart and soul behind our dog grooming haven! 🐾 With a deep-rooted passion for animals, Judith is not only the proud owner-operator but also a skilled and dedicated groomer. She learned the art of grooming at Angel's Grooming Academy from the absolute best.

Judith's love for animals goes beyond the grooming table – she spent four years in an animal welfare role at the RSPCA in England, fostering a genuine affection for dogs and a commitment to their well-being. Her exceptional animal handling skills ensure that every furry client feels comfortable and cared for during their grooming sessions.

In addition to her notable achievements, Judith holds a certificate in Veterinary Nursing, bringing a level of expertise that goes beyond grooming aesthetics. She also served as a Kennel/Cattery Manager for three years, showcasing her organisational skills in maintaining a safe and happy environment for animals.

But Judith's journey doesn't stop there – she's invested time in learning about canine behaviour by completing two dog training courses under the guidance of Mark Vette, a renowned dog behaviorist. With this comprehensive background, Judith is not just a groomer; she's a true friend to your furry companions, providing top-notch care, expertise, and a whole lot of love. ♡

Personalised Care

At Dirty Dogs, we recognise the unique needs of every dog and so customise the products and services based on the individual skin and coat types. We understand that one shampoo does not fit all, providing personalised care that caters to the specific requirements of each furry friend.

Flexible Scheduling

In addition to our commitment to a comfortable grooming experience, we understand the demands of a busy lifestyle. If your furry companion needs to stay a bit longer, rest assured that we can work around your timetable to provide the best care possible. Extra charges may incur.
