Less stress grooming, one paw at a time

Holistic grooming in the comfort of your home, helping to support your dog through patience, understanding, and a gentle approach

About Me

Welcome to Mellow Mutts, a different kind of dog grooming experience. Rooted in compassion, patience, and partnership, we believe that grooming should never be rushed or forced — it should be a process of building trust, creating calm, and honouring each dog as an individual.
Led by Melanie, a qualified Level 3 groomer, Mellow Mutts, combines years of hands-on grooming experience with a deep interest in dog behaviour, communication, and emotional wellness. Specialising in cooperative grooming we work with your dog, not to them. Our mission is to make grooming a low-stress, positive experience — not just a chore, but an opportunity to nurture wellbeing and connection

We focus on:

  • Emotional safety: Your dog’s comfort and trust are our priority.
  • Clear communication: We read and respond to your dog’s body language.
  • Holistic care: We support your dog’s whole health — physical, emotional, and behavioural.

Why Cooperative Grooming Matters

Dogs are sentient, emotional beings, and grooming can be an intimidating process if not approached carefully. Being handled all over their body with various tools can feel scary, and undesirable behaviour can manifest due to fear. Cooperative grooming builds trust, communication, and confidence, turning a potentially scary experience into a positive one. By investing time early, you set your dog up for a lifetime of calm, safe, and stress-free grooming—reducing fear, preventing accidents, and strengthening the bond between you and your dog
