A full groom, finished by Ella
The studio
Quiet, calm and entirely about your dog.
There's no busy salon floor and no queue of dogs waiting their turn. Every appointment at Ella's K9 Care is one-to-one in a private studio in Little Budworth, so your dog has Ella's full attention from drop-off to collection.
It's grooming as it should be: patient, precise and built around your dog's coat, temperament and the life they lead, whether that's long walks in Delamere Forest or the sofa at home.

Years caring for dogs
Meet Ella
A groomer who's a dog person first.
Ella has four dogs of her own and more than four years' experience caring for other people's. She holds a Level 3 Diploma in Dog Grooming, completed alongside extensive placement experience at a professional grooming and training facility.
The studio brings that experience together: technical skill, a calm pair of hands, and genuine care for every dog who comes through the door.
Ella was very professional and the dogs took to her immediately. She was very calming and knew how to handle them, and we can thoroughly recommend her to others with similar needs.
