POOCH Luxury Pamper and Play

POOCH Luxury Pamper and Play is a dog grooming salon and daycare in Narellan, in Sydney's Macarthur region. The business pairs a full grooming service with supervised group daycare under one roof, so a dog can be groomed, play, or do both in a single visit.

Grooming is organised around the coat rather than a one-size-fits-all wash. There are tailored pampers for long-haired dogs, double-coated breeds that need undercoat raking and de-shedding, short-haired breeds, and breed-specific styling for the likes of Poodles, Schnauzers, Scottish Terriers and West Highland Terriers. A gentler Puppy First Pamper eases young dogs into the experience from two weeks after their second vaccination. The salon is also set up to work patiently with reactive and anxious dogs, including those on anxiety medication, and treats daycare socialisation as part of helping nervous pets settle.

Daycare runs Tuesday to Saturday with an initial assessment day, current vaccinations and a flat collar required before a dog joins the group. It suits owners who want grooming and play handled together by people who clearly take their time with each animal.
