"A good groomer is an integral part of your dog's life."
Dogoverboard takes pride in providing the highest-quality style grooming from experienced professional pet stylists who are continually trained to make grooming a pleasurable experience for your dog. We do not use casual groomers, amateurs or unskilled students.
Dogoverboard is a progressive salon offering a range of comprehensive grooming services by appointment, ensuring personal attention and a low stress environment for all breeds of dog.
Our groomers regularly compete in, and win at international dog grooming competitions. They also attend international biannual grooming conferences to ensure the correct and latest grooming techniques such as Asian Fusion, are available for your dog.
We pay particular attention to the dog's skin condition, coat type, ears, eye areas, nails and pads. These details are commonly missed by other groomers. Our Newcastle based dog groomers pride themselves on being canine care professionals, able to recognise and identify what is best for your dog and offer unbiased advice.
Our team of professionally trained groomers can help you maintain your dog's coat and healthy appearance all year round. Whether it is a
maintenance trim, a foot, face and bottom trim, a full
makeover, nail art or body colour dying or chalking, we can help your dog look, feel and smell beautiful.
For the owner who really cares about the look and comfort of their pet, our groomers specialise in clipping, scissoring and hand stripping to the owners preferred length and style. We are particularly fond of Maltese, Shihtzu, Cocker Spaniels, Schnauzers, Bichons, Cavaliers and all other common groom breeds. Most dog breeds that require grooming, should be regularly groomed at least every 4 to 6 weeks. Many caring owners prefer to have their loved dog groomed or bathed weekly or fortnightly.
Dogoverboard have a large team of experienced professional groomers, so grooming multiple dogs is not a problem. Dog owners with more than one groom dog can have their dogs groomed at the same appointment time. You do not need to book different appointment times or wait longer for your dogs to be groomed. Also if you have groom dogs and groom breeds that do not require clipping, we can bath and dry the non groom dogs whilst the groom dogs are being groomed. We regularly cater for clients with multiple dogs. Four or five dogs from the same owner are no problem.
All dogs are special however many dogs have "special needs" from medical conditions, old age, fidgety puppies or dogs who have previously experienced bad grooming or handling. It takes experience, patience and acquired skills to work on special needs dogs. At Dogoverboard we provide the best care, patience and attention. Our Newcastle based dog groomers are expert in handling special needs dogs which sometimes require express grooming. Due to the amount of additional time required to care for special need dogs, the service is an extra cost.
Selecting a grooming service can be a risky unknown especially if you have to leave your loved companion behind closed doors for services that you are not allowed to see. Chances are your dog could be subjected to sedation, harnesses, harsh restraints, force or cage drying and inexperienced rough handling without your knowledge, any of which can cause your loved companion serious behavioural problems or worse.

We will not tolerate any form of inhumane treatment of dogs. Dogoverboard does not use sedation, force, restraints or cage drying. These inhumane practices are commonly used other grooming establishments.
All dogs are bathed and groomed in open view. You can observe your dog and other dogs being clipped, scissored, bathed and dried by our trained staff.
Dogoverboard's grooming service is available 6 days a week, Monday to Saturday. Unlike behind closed door grooming shops, our pet stylists limit the number of dogs to allow special attention to detail and loving individual care.
Our grooming services are highly specialised and very popular with our dog lovers. As our groomers are all highly skilled pet stylists, we do not pick-up dogs. Our clients love to discuss their doggy needs face-to-face with a professional groomer. We devote caring and fun time with your pet as if it was our own. All dogs are groomed with lots of love, kisses and cuddles. To avoid disappointment, appointments are necessary. Our trained Newcastle dog care professionals can, however, clip nails, clean or pluck ears, clean nasal folds and carry out anal expression without appointment.
