SEG Lv3 accreditedMeet Joanne
Your local groomer in Herne Bay.
I'm Joanne Taylor — SEG Lv3 accredited and fully insured dog groomer, and owner of The Floof Spa. I groom one dog at a time from my quiet studio in Herne Bay. Local collection & drop-off is available for £5 when you need it. No crates, no queues, no surprises.
If your dog is nervous, senior, or has never been groomed before, tell me — that's exactly what I'm here for.
- Just you, your dog, and me — no other dogs in the room.
- You'll know the final price before the appointment, not at pickup.
- I'll stop, slow down, or shorten the groom if your dog needs it.
- Ask about staying for a first visit — agreed case by case.
