About Professional Canine Stylists

Professional Canine Stylists is a boutique dog grooming salon on Goodwood Road in Kings Park, in Adelaide's inner south. The business first opened on Unley Road back in 1983 and moved to its refurbished Goodwood Road premises in October 2019, so it carries a long history of looking after local dogs. It describes itself as Adelaide's first sustainable dog grooming salon, running as a zero-waste operation certified by Sustainable Salons, with a dog-hair recycling program.

The approach is built around patience and animal welfare. The salon does not use neck restraints, working instead on the belief that a calm manner and a genuine love of dogs will help most dogs settle happily on the grooming table. The aim, in the salon's own words, is to keep dogs comfortable and help them enjoy the experience, with services framed as a spa day rather than a chore. The team is led by owner-groomer Alicia, who has groomed since 2012 and specialises in double-coated breeds, alongside manager Belinda, who holds a Bachelor of Science in Animal Behaviour, plus additional groomers and assistants.

It suits owners who want an unhurried, welfare-first groom from an experienced, family-run team.
