Lovely Pets

Rara Petcare is a dog grooming service that also offers day care, run with a clear focus on the comfort and wellbeing of the dogs in its care. Every groom begins with an assessment of the dog's skin, coat, ears, nails and teeth, and washes use pH-balanced, dog-specific shampoos with options including medicated, puppy and de-shedding formulas, plus a gentle head and face massage. The team styles coats to suit the breed, and lists experience with poodles, schnauzers, bichon frise, spaniels, terriers, shih tzu and many others. Grooming is suited to both long-haired and short-haired dogs across a range of coat types and temperaments, and puppies are welcomed for their first groom once their third vaccinations are done. Beyond the grooming table, day care gives small to medium dogs space to be entertained and socialised, with a wellness check, a gentle brush and a massage on arrival. The approach is unhurried and tailored, with grooming time and finish shaped by each dog's coat, knots and behaviour rather than a one-size-fits-all template. Booking is handled online.
