The groomer

Meet Phoebe Harris

9 years grooming

Hello! I’m Phoebe, and I’ve been passionate about dogs for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of owning, breeding, and showing Great Danes at championship level, as well as working at the renowned Corriebran Irish Setter kennel, where I helped care for boarders and prepared dogs for the show ring.

I'm a fully qualified groomer with a Level 3 Advanced Diploma in Dog Grooming and a CPD certification in Canine First Aid. My grooming journey began in August 2017 with a mobile grooming van, and thanks to the support of wonderful clients, I opened my salon in Barnwell in December 2018.

You’ll usually find my Basset Hound, Chief, snoozing somewhere around the salon — he's the real boss here! I’m also proud to work with the Basset Hound Rescue Network of Great Britain, fostering hounds in need until they find their forever homes.

When I’m not grooming, I enjoy spending time with my pony, Flo, who I share with my 17-year-old daughter.
