Kept small, by choice.
Clover & Clip has been grooming on Marlowe Row since 2017: two dog stations, one cat room, and one pet per table. It has stayed this size because a calm, quiet room is what makes a groom go well for an anxious pet.
- Two dog stations
- A separate cat room
- Appointment only
At the drying table
Why the hand-dry takes so long
Drying takes up most of a groom, and speed is not the point. Warm moving air opens the coat to the skin, lifts out loose undercoat and leaves a straight coat for the scissors. No pet is shut in a heated cage dryer here.
Two rooms
Dogs through one door, cats through another
The dog room
Two stations, one pet each, with the trolley between them. No dog waits in a kennel for its turn, because grooms are spaced so none has to. A dog that is finished early goes home early.
The cat room
Its own room and its own door, used on dog-free Tuesday and Thursday mornings, so no cat sits through a morning of barking and dryers. No cat is sedated, and a cat that has had enough goes home with the groom unfinished.
The bench
Four rules for every table
- Blades, combs and shears are disinfected between pets and sharpened on a schedule, not once they start to pull.
- Dryers run at the gentlest setting that will finish the coat, and are never aimed at a face.
- Shampoos are tearless and pH-balanced, and you can ask the name of any product used at collection.
- Each table holds one pet at a time, and the next pet comes out only after the last has gone home.
