About Circle of Fluff Dog Grooming

Circle of Fluff is a private dog grooming studio on Wellington Street in St Kilda, working with small to medium dogs under roughly 20-25kg in a cage-free, one-on-one setting. The studio frames its work around a "Humanity Over Vanity" philosophy, putting a dog's comfort and wellbeing ahead of a picture-perfect finish.

Grooming here is fear-free and unhurried, with a single dog seen at a time rather than a busy salon floor. The groomer is Fear-Free certified, and photos and videos are shared during the appointment so owners can see how their dog is settling in. That calm, patient approach makes it a sensible fit for anxious or sensitive dogs and for puppies, who can be eased in through a dedicated first-groom session and home-grooming workshops for pups under six months. Alongside core grooming, the studio offers wellness-minded extras including deshedding, breed-specific styling, and tailored DIY grooming courses for owners who want to maintain their dog's coat at home.

For owners who value a quieter, more considered experience over a quick in-and-out trim, Circle of Fluff is built around exactly that.
