Hands-on dog grooming training from day one with The Paw Pad Dog Grooming Academy, Northwich Cheshire

Being a professional dog groomer is a great career choice if you are thinking of changing jobs or earning extra cash. During times of recession, the pet industry tends to survive barely unscathed. People love their pets and want them to keep fit and healthy.

One of the best feelings is when a dog that’s been scared of the groomer and the grooming experience finally relaxes and lets you clip their nails, clip their fur, dry their head or trim their pads without stress. Gaining that trust from a dog makes it all worthwhile and here at The Paw Pad Dog Grooming Academy in Cheshire in the North West, we train you so all your pampered pooches are perfect!

The benefits of becoming a trained dog groomer are that you’ll make new friends, meet and fall in love with hundreds of dogs and have a lucrative career. You will also have a skill that you can take with you, wherever life takes you and be your own boss, giving you the flexibility for your own work-life balance.

Become a much-needed, qualified and trained dog groomer with help from The Paw Pad Dog Grooming Academy. There is a dog grooming course suitable for everyone seeking to set up their own dog grooming business. No previous dog grooming experience or qualifications are required before you start your dog grooming training.

At The Paw Pad, we love dogs, and we believe that the finished look of a dog is as important as the loving care and attention we give our pets.

What Our Students Say about their Dog Grooming School

I recently completed my level 3 dog grooming course and the team were fantastic. The trainers and owner were extremely welcoming and made me feel comfortable from the beginning. The level of training provided was excellent and the support is still there when you finish the course. On day 1 you are given health and safety briefing for your own safety and the dogs, this is carried on throughout the course as health and safety for all parties is their main priority. They are all amazing at what they do and their love for the dogs is unreal ♥️ I would highly recommend a course or a dog groom here.

Rebecca Decker

I completed my level 3 diploma here at the Paw Pad Grooming School. I would highly recommend anybody wishing to change their career to dog grooming to enrol here, the 'team' are fab-u-less! Just to add, the safety of the dogs during our training was definitely the biggest priority, this is probably the most important lesson that I walked away with.

Jo Mason

Honestly - we wouldn’t want to trust anyone else with our springer spaniel! Every team member goes above and beyond, whether for a groom or day care services. We feel lucky to have such a caring team of experts in the area who are just really lovely humans!
