We run a spacious, open-plan salon featuring just two grooming tables. This is key to keeping the atmosphere relaxed and focused.
Plenty of space for happy post-groom zoomies.
Fresh water and open crates for quiet time if they need a break.
A selection of toys to enjoy after their session.
We want that visit to end on a high, happy note!
Find Us Easily
You’ll find us conveniently located right on the Tidworth high street. Look for us opposite the entrance to Tesco and next door to the Sidbury Hill Veterinary Clinic.
There is on-street parking available (30-minute stay, Monday-Saturday) just a few metres from the front door. Why not drop your dog off for their full groom and grab a lovely cup of tea at the cafe up the road or do your weekly food shop?
It’s a convenient, stress-free drop-off.
Leanne’s Passionate Journey
After a successful career as a gymnastics coach, the 2020 pandemic opened a wonderful new door. Leanne chose to pursue her lifelong passion: expert dog care.
Coaching taught Leanne immense patience — a vital skill she now applies to make every grooming session positive and calm.
“I look forward to getting into the salon every morning. I’ve definitely found my life’s calling!”
A Little Fun Fact!
Before becoming Wizard of Paws, Leanne was an extra in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
See if you can spot her in the dueling scene at Hogwarts. She may not be a magician, but she certainly works magic on matted coats.
Meet the Furry Team
We love dogs, and our home is a busy, happy place thanks to our two rescues!
Lexi (Springerpoodle): Welcomed in 2018 as a pup, Lexi is a high-energy bundle who loves running and swimming. Nicknamed Stig of the Dump, she’s in her happy place when running through the mud and collecting sticks and leaves in her fur.
Dodger (Poodle-Show Cocker Spaniel cross): Adopted in 2021, Dodger is our grumpy old boy who prefers to be curled up on the sofa or looking for treats. Don’t leave your toast unsupervised — he’s a surprisingly fast pickpocket!
