Bark&Claw

I can’t recommend Maria enough! She did an amazing job grooming my Maine Coon. He was made to feel calm and comfortable throughout, and the results were fantastic. She also helped with his greasy tail and dandruff, and his coat looks so much cleaner, softer, and healthier already. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she works with and takes great pride in what she does. I’ll definitely be coming back. Thank you so much!

Professional service with excellent results. Beau loves it here, and Maria is great with him. He comes home fully groomed, looks and smells great. I travel to get my cat groomed as I wouldn't use anyone else. Would highly recommend, as cats can be very anxious, but Maria has that special touch.

maria is amazing she was so good with my wee rescue cat and did an amazing job making her look so good. maria explained everything to me and was so gentle and caring with my cat 10/10 experience with her

Maria is very talented and caring my Mainecoon is really relaxed with her and loves his pamper sessions 💕

Fabulous job

Maria is great, always has your cat’s best interest at heart, really takes her time to make sure your cat is comfortable. Toffee came back to us smelling great, feeling soft and most importantly relaxed. Thank you!

Absolutely wonderful. I traveled quite far for this appointment and will be doing it again. My first time having a long haired cat and I knew I needed to do something to help her with her fur around her backside but didn’t know where to start. Bark&Claw was recommended to me and I had a very thorough chat with Maria before booking as I wasn’t sure what I needed to book to get the right treatment for my kitten. She suggested I book ‘the fluffy ones’ appointment so that it would cover the appointment and she’d do a hygiene trim and whatever else my kitten would allow. The appointment itself was calm and Maria took her time to speak to me about my kitten before I left and she fully explained her plans to me and gave me an idea of the time she’d need and suggested shops nearby for me to pass the time in since I was so far from home. She phoned just before she was finished so I had time to get back to the salon. I arrived to find my kitten laid back relaxing in the little blow drying machine Maria has. My kitten was even more relaxed than when I dropped her off. Maria explained the entire appointment to me and what my kitten tolerated and didn’t tolerate! Clearly she had taken time to put my kitten at ease and I really appreciate this. She only charged me for what she got done, not for the time slot appointment I had booked, which I thought was very decent of her. She suggested ways I can help my kitten get more comfortable for the next appointment and even showed me some at-home shampoos I can use if my kitten gets herself in a mess! The shave was brilliant and my kitten is so much more comfortable and has a lot less things sticking to her belly and backside now! It is so reassuring that my kitten came away happy and content and with a wonderful hygiene trim! Thoroughly worth the trip and the money. Couldn’t recommend more highly.

Excellent experience. Very professional. My dog can out relaxed and happy and looking good

Fantastic service, worked a miracle on my scruff!

Always does a great job
