for Stocksbridge dogsDog groomer, walker & boarder in Stocksbridge
If you live in Stocksbridge, you’re about 7.8 miles south of Clayton West, where I groom, board and walk dogs.
A steel town in the Little Don valley, in Sheffield, just east of the Peak District and about 9 miles from Barnsley. That puts Stocksbridge within reach of my grooming, walking and home boarding, and dogs do travel for a groom or a stay. Hounds of Love is a small, personal service. Dogs from further afield come to Nanette’s garden studio in Clayton West for grooming and to stay at her home while their owners are away. It’s all done by one person, so your dog is the one getting the attention.
