01 / Why Bramble

Eight years on a big-box timer. Then Bramble.

“I groomed at a big-box pet store for 8 years and hated rushing scared dogs through on a timer.”

Tess, owner and groomer

So in 2025 Tess opened Bramble on Haywood Road so every dog gets a calm, unhurried visit. There are two groomers, so only two dogs are in the shop at a time.

04 / Your groomers

Two groomers who take their time.

Tess

Owner and groomer

Groomed for 8 years at a big-box pet store, then opened Bramble in 2025 so every dog gets a calm, unhurried visit.

Kai

Groomer

Five years grooming, and great with doodles and big dogs.

Most people take whoever’s free. If you’d like Tess or Kai, just ask by name when you book.
