Purrfect Pet Grooming

Purrfect Pet Grooming is a pet grooming salon at Allenstown, just south of the Rockhampton CBD, where Tammy grooms cats as well as dogs. The cat work is worth flagging in a regional market with few options: one owner brought a Persian in to have a home haircut corrected and rated the result far better than anything the dog-only salons had managed. Regular dog clients book monthly shower and haircut appointments, with some travelling in from outer suburbs like Parkhurst rather than using something closer.

Patience is the quality reviewers keep returning to. A dog that disliked her previous groomer reportedly came home happy, and an owner whose dog hates having her legs and paws done singled out how calmly that part was handled. Trust is the other recurring note, with more than one customer saying Tammy is the only person in Rockhampton they would leave their pets with. It suits cat owners, pets that are touchy about handling, and dogs on a regular grooming schedule.
