Meet Our Team

My amazing team of groomers is what makes 4 Paws so special. Each of our staff members is highly-skilled, well trained and absolutely love what they do. It is important to me, that all of my staff have the same ethos and life principles that are aligned with myself and my business. Unfortunately the Dog Grooming Industry is not regulated, businesses can come and go with little experience.

Luckily for you and your dogs, my team at 4 Paws Dog Grooming self-impose their own service levels. This means that your expectations can be high and you know that the team will deliver the best service and the best dog grooming in Sandgate and the wider area.

Have a look at our Gallery page for examples of our work and to hear from some of our regular clients. I look forward to welcoming you to our salon. In the meantime, I would love to introduce the team…

Have a Question?

As a smaller, family-run business we know that experience matters! We have over 25 years of collective experience in Dog Grooming and animal care, which sets us apart from many in this industry.

Here at 4 Paws Sandgate, we are driven to give your fur babies the best grooming experience possible.

We do this using a combination of professional techniques, high-quality products and a keen eye for detail. It is our mission to ensure that both you AND your pooch leave happy and content.

We pride ourselves on our wonderfully experienced team of stylists that will put your dog’s needs first, no matter what. This is a major priority for us.

The 4 Paws Vision

My vision when I bought 4 paws in 2018 was clear. It was to build a reliable and professional grooming Salon. I insisted on high standards that supported my team and provided the customers with the highest quality of service.

I have worked very hard on creating a work environment that reflects my integral core values and who I am as an individual. As a team we work united together showing one another support and respect. I feel I have now successfully crafted the dream team!

My staff are absolutely amazing! I could not be more proud of the team. The service they provide to their wonderful clients cannot be bettered in the Sandgate and North Brisbane area. Arriving at work is easy when you have created a work culture that is happy, professional and supportive!

Now having successfully created and nurtured my dream team I can focus on delivering to 4Paws customers with the very best care and live my dream every day. Myself and the team look forward to welcoming you to our salon.
