Gareth and the team are a wonderful team of groomers! They are calm, kind and compassionate. They use the best equipment to groom dogs/cats of any size! The premises is always clean and welcoming, and nothing is ever too much trouble...Gareth's expertise is 2nd to none...I wouldn't take my pets anywhere else, a truly wonderful groomer!

Mazie really didn’t like her grooming experience until she met Gareth. Now she’s really happy, still not sure she likes the hairdryer but she really likes Gareth and the Team. Can’t recommend them highly enough, especially for neurotic Divas!

So thank you team ❤️
Rachel Saundry, September 2025
My dog is an anxious soul. We have been going to Gareth and his team since he opened. My dog loves going and I am happy to leave him for 2 plus hours with no anxiety about my dogs anxiety. He even kisses Gareth when he sees him. Always a friendly team to pets and their owners. Always on time and never mess me around with appointments. Not sure what I’d do without this place. It’s a small business with a big heart.

Deborah Mitchell-Firth, September 2025
We researched and found Cornish Dog Barber. Our puppy Bella, a cockapoo booked a Puppy Meet & Greet and Grooming package.
Initial meet & greet was positive and they're friendly and professional.
Second, was her first bath & blow dry with trimming of nails and eyes. She was totally relaxed 😌 when we picked her up, after an hour. Couldn't believe how well she was, as she's was only 13 wks old.
Pat Mitchell-Firth, September 2025
Our puppy Bella has had her first shampoo and dry, with the Cornish Dog Barber, they were brilliant, right through booking the appointment to the welcome we all got, and to cap it all Bella loved it.
I’d give them 11 out of 10.

Allison Randlesome, August 2025
Our young flatcoated retriever is fairly excitable and typically loves to overcompensate with his love for life, Gareth and his team from the start proved to be a calming Influence and kind,, they gave him a proper trim and groom according to type, consequently he looks amazing every time. He's always happy to see Gareth and his team and we are always delighted with the quality of groom, kindness and true professionalism, also the personal attention he receives every time. I wouldn't go anywhere else.
Lynn Burt, August 2025
The only people I trust with my dog

Having recently moved further away from The Cornish Dog Barber I did consider changing to a groomer nearer to home, but when you find a fantastic groomer like Gareth and his team, it’s worth the extra travel time!

Susan Gellatly, August 2025
Our dog had had an horrific experience at another groomers where they cut her ear and she had been incredibly nervous. She comes back from The Cornish Dog Barber looking and smelling gorgeous and she knows it. If you have ever seen a dog show off that they look amazing... that's Pepper! The personalised touch of a bow or bandana is always really lovely and always really highly complimented by anyone that sees her. Pepper has gone from being terrified of being groomed to loving it- thats all down The Cornish Dog Barber.
Gina George, August 2025
My 9yr old Westie Jazzy has always been super nervous going to the groomers and hated going. Since taking her to The Cornish Barber I couldn’t believe how relaxed she was after her first visit. They are so patient with her and cut her beautifully, they really listen to what I ask for and after a few visits know how we like her groomed without me having to explain at length.
Everyone is so friendly and welcoming and they have gone above and beyond to squeeze me in when I had made a mistake on the online booking platform.
They are simply the best groomers I have been to and throughly deserve this award.
Nigel Smith, August 2025
Fantastic service and dogs are so cared for
Rowena Clayton, August 2025
I have 2 Alaskan Malamutes 1 standard coat wolf grey and white and a long haired sable and white they are in regularly for a full groom with deshed. They trot happily in for their grooms, love the groomers and look stunning.
Louise Collins, August 2025
They are all brilliant kind and patient with both my boys
Wendy Ball, August 2025
Daisy has been going to the Cornish Dog barbers for a couple of years now after we lost our previous groomer. We were so relieved to have found Gareth, he is calm and friendly. Daisy runs in happily and comes out without any agitation (she has separation anxiety). Gareth also grooms her just the way we request keeping her feathers and maintaining her coat beautifully. There is also little touches like a pretty bow or bandana themed to the month she attends. We picked a winner when we chose The Cornish Dog Barber!
Nikki Lange, August 2025
So many people I know use The Cornish Dog Barber, all dogs come out looking amazing! Such a professional and friendly service, with dogs being cared for to the highest standard.
Alan Conway, August 2025
Always getting asked where I get Gazza groomed.
Lauren Trelease, August 2025
Gareth and his team have been grooming my miniature labradoodle since he was a puppy. Not only are they incredibly patient, but they are also unbelievably kind, which shines through in their love of animals.
My dog hates being brushed at home, and is a pain in the neck when I try, but every single time he goes to the Cornish Dog Barber, he goes in and comes out happy as Larry, with a super waggy tail - which has possibly got something to do with the positive reinforcement and treats.
The team work hard to making grooming a positive experience, and despite being a little nervous, it's evident in videos that my dog has a fab time while he's there! I wouldn't consider going anywhere else at this point.
