I have a temperamental cockapoo who really doesn't like being groomed. Many other groomers had voiced concerns, Katie didn't even hesitate, "bring him in, he'll be fine". She has a great way with dogs... See more

Written by the company

Welcome to Katie’s Pet Heaven! My name is Katalin Balatincz and I have been working in this industry as a qualified dog groomer for 22 years since I have earned my degree in my home country in Hungary. I have worked in the UK as a mobile groomer since 2016. Year by year I try to expand my knowledge more with different courses; I am also interested in Asian fusion freestyle grooming. As of 2020, with thanks to a high demand of old, loyal and new clients who return to my service, I have been able to push my business even further and open my own salon. The side of the salon has free parking for customers available at any time. Katie’s Pet Heaven will always welcome any size and any breed of cats and dogs. I will always strive to find the best and new different grooming techniques and products to achieve the maximum customer satisfaction. My business aim is to always give the best standard of service, whilst giving your lovely fur babies the care and attention they need.

Maggie

Maggie, our small black & white smoothie cockapoo had her first ‘professional’ wash & dry with a slight ear trim today . We thought it would be a good idea as she is going to board with Katie for a holiday in March . My husband wanted to keep her slightly scruffy & Katie listened & Maggie looks beautiful, soft & smells amazing 💕 I am sure she is going to have a great holiday with Katie 🐶🐶

Katie and the team are amazing

Katie and the team are amazing! Our cockapoo goes their for his hair cut which is always great. So we decided for him to stay their for boarding whilst on our recent holiday, and all I can say is what a service you get. Regular updates on how your dog is doing, videos and pictures too which is an awesome touch.
Eddie absolute loved his time with Katie and the team. Would highly recommend!

Rocco loves going to Katie's pet…

Rocco loves going to Katie's pet heaven, as they are so friendly even when he can sometimes be not quite so friendly.
This was our 4th time of using them and he is already booked in for his 5th grooming session which must speak for itself.
They trim him just the way we like it, he goes in looking like a fluff ball and cones away looking like a teddy bear. Thank you and see you in April.

I took my Pomeranian in for a groom

I took my Pomeranian in for a groom , but was very disappointed with his groom this time . His tear stains around his eyes were not removed and his eyes were still dirty! Also I noticed his back legs still had straggley hair and was not cut properly

Hi, thank you for your review.
I have a note on your file about this grooming. Your dog was in incredible condition and very bad skin condition. I advised you please take this dog to the vet immediately. We keep the picture how the dog arrived and how looks when was sent home. Really sorry you are not happy with our job but we can't make magic in this case

I don't feel I got good value for money.
Paying premium price you expect premium service. but Nail, ears, and eyes left undone. Cut was no better than 2 other local salons who don't have awards to their name.

Easy on line appointment system

Easy on line appointment system, no leaving messages on answerphone because the groomer is busy clipping dogs! Easy parking at the shop. Friendly and helpful staff. Reasonable prices and my pooch has a fabulous cut, she looks great!

Was left feeling completely insulted…

Was left feeling completely insulted and angry after I was told that my loyalty card had six stamps on it but I had only visited five times, the inference being that I had added a stamp myself, I am really not that desperate to go to those lengths, I shall not be using there services again.

Dear Andy Scott.
Thank you for your review, we learn something from all comment.
Really sorry you went very angry about this situation. We had a problem what my colleague try to solve on a very polite way.
Sometimes people have more than one account, last minute booking etc.
He never said you are lying or did the stamp by yourself. We have a security camera and I heard and watched all conversation and i had a shock when you start shouting with him for no reason.
I am glad you don`t want to come back to us, because in my shop this behaviour is not acceptable. Anger and aggression don`t solve the problem. We wish you all the best in the new grooming shop.
Katie behalf of Katie`s Pet Heaven

I won't use anyone else

We've moved to Hampshire from London and needed a new groomer for my fluffy Australian Labradoodle. After an extremely awful experience another groomer nearby who failed to provide the agreed service, I found Katie. Katie was absolutely fantastic and provided the exact teddy bear grooming style that I requested at the highest standard! She was kind and gentle to the dog and it's also very clear how much she's passionate about her job. She's very experienced, friendly and professional and I couldn't ask for a better customer service from her. She was able to groom my dog in the perfect teddy bear style that my dog's has been maintaining for the past three years. I can tell she takes pride in showing off her outstanding grooming skills unlike many other groomers who would rather shave the dogs off and earn easy money. I've booked the next groom with Katie and I would recommend everyone to try out this fantastic groomer. Thank you so much, Katie!

Wonderful service at Katies

Wonderful service at Katies - I have used her service for both Grooming & Boarding and I wouldn’t want to use anyone else. It is such a pleasure to see her greet us when we drop our precious ‘Cargo’ with her. My Archie loves Katie’s as much as he loves his ‘mummy’ - me :) Would 100% recommend using Katie’s Pet Heaven to everyone
