Carlton & Colwick
The salon
parks on
your drive
at your door
Rachael brings a fully fitted grooming van to driveways around Carlton, Colwick and nearby Nottingham. City & Guilds. Fully insured. Taking 2026 bookings.
How it works
Three steps. No kennel run.
Message for a quote, the van arrives, your dog is groomed on familiar ground — then walked straight back to the house.
01
Message or call
Share breed, coat and what you need. Rachael quotes and books a driveway slot.
02
Van arrives
Fully fitted unit parks at yours. Plugs into your electricity for hydrobath and dryers.
03
Groom & hand-back
Washed, clipped or brushed in the van — walked back. They never leave the driveway.
Why the van
One groomer. One van. Your driveway.
Rachael runs Rachael's Mobile Dog Grooming from a fully fitted mobile unit — not a parlour queue. Hydrobath, dryers and grooming kit travel with her. Your dog stays on home ground instead of a busy salon floor.
She trained to City & Guilds Just 4 Paws standard and has been grooming since November 2014. Around four years with military dogs and horses at DAC sit behind the calm handling on every visit. Fully insured. Prices she describes as cheaper than the average parlour — ask about 10% off first grooms.
The van is the studio
Plugs into your electricity. Full groom, wash & dry, hydrobath, brush-through, nails — all driveway-side.
