Our story
Ten years of dogs in our home — now in the tub.
Trims & Bubbles grew out of 10+ years of in-home dog boarding, right here in Dunlop, ACT. Over those years we've looked after every kind of dog — nervous rescues, bouncy puppies, senior dogs who just want a quiet corner — and learned how to make each one feel at home.
Now we're bringing that same patient, unhurried care to washing, grooming and trimming. Same calm hands, same love of dogs — with a professional groom at the end of it.
Real training and real experience behind every single groom.
Qualified dog groomer
A recognised dog grooming qualification.
The coat, skin and safety knowledge behind every wash, trim and style — so your dog is in properly trained hands.
10+ years with dogs
A decade-plus of in-home dog boarding.
Years spent reading temperaments and keeping anxious dogs calm and comfortable — exactly what makes grooming day stress-free.
Fully insured, and every groom finished with a coat-and-skin health check at no extra charge.

What to expect
Drop-off
Arrive at your scheduled time — we keep a relaxed pace between bookings so there's no rushed handover. A quick chat about anything we should know, and your dog settles in.
During the groom
Your dog stays only as long as their service takes — no boarding or day care. We work at your dog's pace, with breaks if needed, so it never feels like an assembly line.
A calm environment
Dogs settle best without their owner in the room — it keeps them focused rather than trying to get back to you. Happy to show you around before or after your appointment.
Pickup — or we bring them home
Collect your dog looking (and smelling) their best, with a quick note on how the groom went. Can't make it in? Add Pickup and Drop-off at checkout.
