Grooming by the Sea

Grooming by the Sea is a dog-grooming service at Bushland Beach, on the northern beaches side of Townsville, where Bev does the grooming. There are only a handful of reviews, but they say much the same thing: the haircuts are well judged and repeatable, with regular clients noting their dog gets the same good cut every time rather than a different result depending on the day.

For a small operation the range in that feedback is fairly broad. A young dog came in for its very first little face trim and stayed settled through the appointment, while at the other end an elderly and reportedly cranky dog was groomed without any fuss. Reviewers also describe Bev as friendly and knowledgeable, and several simply say they will be back. It suits owners around the northern Townsville beaches after a straightforward, competent groom — including young dogs being introduced to clippers and older dogs who need a groomer unbothered by a bit of grumbling.
