ABOUT US

Founded by Vaughn Marshall in 2023, Vaughn's Dog Wash is focused on your dog's well being
At Vaughn's Dog Wash, we don't do fancy! If you are after a fancy Dog Show teddy bear cut, I'm not your groomer. However, I will do my very best to have your doggy trimmed and groomed as close to your requests as we possibly can. If your furry friend has matting, I will do my very best to get them out, however, this is not always possible and therefore, I will need to trim to get underneath them. Sometimes this means a shorter cut.
G'day! Meet the Team

Hi, I'm Vaughn!
I love dogs and I really enjoy working with them, from the little dogs to large dogs . One thing I try to do is keep your doggy relaxed throughout the grooming process. If I feel any dog is getting stressed, I will stop what I'm doing, hold the dog's head in my hands and looking it in the eyes, reassure him or her, that everything is alright. After a few pats, I find they are relaxed enough for me to continue.

Wish to Make a Booking?
My Calendar is booked at least 2 - 3 weeks ahead, however, sometimes I do get postponements or even cancellations, so I still may be able to see your doggy friend sooner.

FAQs
How Long Does a Grooming Session Take?
It is difficult to give an exact time frame, as each dog is different.
A basic wash and dry generally takes around an hour.
A Full Groom or De-shed will take between 1.5 hrs and 2 hrs depending on the dog.
Do You Provide Services For Anxious Dogs?
Yes.
We have found that anxious dogs is notall that uncommon. If a dog is getting stressed, the groomer will stop, gently hold the dog’s head and looking it in the eyes, comforts the dog and allows him/her to settle. Then we will continue the grooming process.
However, there are times where a dog may need some calming medication prior to a groom – if you are unsure about your dog’s anxiety, consult your vet.
What Products Do you Use?
We use some of the best brands of Dog Shampoos and Conditioners. These are of a professional standard and are safe for all dog types, including a range of medicated shampoos.
Very rarely will a dog have an allergic reaction to a product. Should this happen, we stop using it immediately.
Do You Offer Senior/Pensioner Discounts?
Yes we do!
When you book with us, tell us you are a Pensioner and we will reduce the price for you.
Please beware that we may ask to see your Pensioner card to verify your discount at the of payment.
