The Spicy Dog Groomer Reviews 

Lianne is brilliant with our dog, it's clear to see that she really cares and the standard of grooming is fantastic. Our boy loves going to see her and the level of service is always top tier.

Lianne is very professional, knowledgeable, friendly and caring. I couldn't ask for a better person to groom our dog. Highly recommended!

Our dog Lenny is a very nervous boy and can be people reactive. We were bricking it the day of his grooming desensitisation appointment, we needn’t had worried, Lianne was great with him and he was even able to have his muzzle taken off after a few mins. A weight off our mind

Lianne is brilliant with my dog, so caring and understanding. Lianne has groomed both my dogs and they love being groomed here.
Lianne always sends them home looking and smelling nice with a ribbon, flower or bow tie.

This was our first time using Southend Dog Grooming. Lianne was very friendly and knowledgeable when it came to caring and grooming our 8 month old puppy. She give us advice on how to care for his fur and what brushes were needed. The little bow was a lovely extra.

I can't rate Lianne highly enough for the brilliant way she has helped our 8 year old German shepherd dog,
who had become anxious about being bathed and with having his nails trimmed. He had an initial de-sensitisation session, and when we picked him up he already had trimmed nails and was really relaxed and happy with Lianne. When we took him back for a full groom a month later, he started howling with excitement as we drove up the lane. As soon as he saw Lianne, he rushed over and leapt all over her (sorry Lianne - he's quite a big boy) ! He happily followed her in, and emerged a couple of hours later - again in a calm, relaxed state, with a lovely groom and trimmed nails ! Lianne clearly has a great rapport with a nervous dog. Not only will we be taking him back, we have now booked in his little sister who is nervous of a blow-drier, as we have complete confidence Lianne will be able to give her a great experience too.
I would highly recommend Lianne as a groomer, and especially for nervous dogs.

Second visit for Max and pleased to hear he is lot more relaxed.

Been going to Southend Dog grooming for the last few months and my dog always going’s in and comes out happy and looks well pampered. Highly recommend.

Lianne assessed my 4 Yr old lab as being very worried indeed about the grooming experience and so recommended starting with a gentle desensitisation session only. She was extremely patient and understanding and he came out a tired but a very happy boy with tail wagging. We are looking forward to our next visit, thanks so much Lianne! 👌

Mabel loves Lianne! And Lianne cuts her exactly as I wanted. Apparently all the SDT staff love Mabel too! She comes out smelling and looking beautiful. Thanks Lianne ❤️

Lianne was absolutely brilliant, from the moment we arrived she was so understanding and made me feel at ease as I have a slightly anxious lab. Lianne knew how to meet the needs of my dog straight away. Not only did star come out smelling wonderful she was happy too. I was so impressed I have booked both of my dogs to go back next week. Thank you Lianne

Leanne was incredibly patient and professional - this was my rescue dog’s first introduction to a groomers . I booked the desensitization session as I knew he’d be nervous and Leanne took all my ( and his ) fears away by gently introducing him to the saloon. She clipped his nails with no fuss and he smelt amazing afterwards. Would 100% recommend and was worth the drive from Croydon . Thank you SDT !

Lianne is amazing with our cockapoo. He's not the easiest dog to groom. He has issues with anyone touching his legs paws but after advice from Lianne, we have been working on this and he is so much better. Not quite 100% ok but she can now groom him at least. Lianne is so good with him, she is calm, loving and caring with our dog and wants to do the best job she can. We would definitely recommend her! Thank you Lianne

Super friendly, knowledgeable and a great service. Ragnar came out looking great with his bow tie!

Lianne was welcoming and explained what she was going to do and how long she would be. Rogan came out looking so much better with his coat shiny, smelling lovely and better still wearing a bow tie! Rogan has had hip replacements and has spinal issues so would not trust anyone else to groom him!

Had a brilliant desensitising grooming session with Lianne and Buster came out smelling amazing. She started to work on things Buster needed help with like the blower and nail trims and provided us with so much advice about how we can carry this on at home. Lianne also recommend products that she uses that are suitable for our boy. We’ve already seen huge improvements when grooming Buster, just wish we lived closer so she could groom him more often.

My golden retriever has never been so clean. She’s never liked water much so we was nervous how she would be but she was happy going in, happy during the clean (I got sent a video) and happy after. So really happy all round. Highly recommended.

FIRST CLASS GROOM
Lianne at Southend Dog Grooming does an amazing job. She does a full groom on my Caucasian Shepherd ( most groomers wont touch).
He looks and smells amazing. First class service.

Wonderful experience for our fur baby even if she’s a Labrador
Went in happy to meet the groomer, not stressed by a different environment and when collecting she was happy and clean

Thank you so much! He smells amazing.Booked in for next month already
