“Amazing caring groomer, who genuinely cares about the dog.
We have a very nervous dog who has not enjoyed her grooming experience for quite sometime, so to pick her up from Florence & Oswald and for her not to be shaking was incredible. Liz took her time getting to know her and also gave us some great tips.
We were so pleased that we booked our other dog in and he was so happy too, both had a great experience and brilliant cuts. Both dogs rebooked.”

“As a dog trainer, I very highly recommend Liz as a groomer for any dog.
Nervous, excitable, fear-aggressive or even puppies… whatever your dog’s experience of grooming is, if you want them to begin to actually like being groomed then Liz is your person.
She goes completely at the dog’s pace. She will listen to their subtle signals to help them build up trust in her, which will make them much more confident in the salon. She also spends time getting to know your dog and what you want to achieve with them and will then do the groom in a very patient, empathetic and calm way, rewarding the dogs as she goes! Liz also made adjustments to the salon to accommodate my dog’s needs.
An absolute diamond, not just to Oswestry but to the whole grooming world! Ps - be careful if you do go there, it’s such a relaxing environment you may just fall asleep if you sit down!”

“Buddy has always been very unhappy about having his fur cut which, when you are a cockapoo is something that needs doing every couple of months.
However after taking him to Liz at Oswald and Florence he is a changed and very smart little pampered pooch.
Thank you Liz for your persistence and care looking after our special boy.”
— Rebecca & buddy
“An exceptional grooming service provided to my 4-month-old puppy by Liz. Dividing the grooming session into two stages was a brilliant approach, especially considering the young age of my puppy and his first experience. This ensured that the grooming process was gentle and not overwhelming for him.
Moreover, the care and attention to detail exhibited during the grooming session were truly remarkable. Thank you for going above and beyond to ensure that my puppy not only looked fantastic but also felt comfortable and safe.
I will not hesitate to recommend Florence and Oswald Grooming Spa services to all my fellow dog owners. Keep up the fantastic work!”
— Violet & Benny
“Max and Matilda look and smell amazing!
You worked so hard to help Tilda to feel safe and worked with her so that she was less anxious.
The time, care and customer communication you provide is the best we have encountered and we are very pleased you opened your business in Oswestry.
Thank you and we look forward to our next visit!”
— Jo, Mark, Max & Matilda
“Can’t thank Liz enough for her kindness and talent -
Overall great job from the first meet and greet (which I think is a fabulous idea to help our pooches with the salon experience) to Neyo’s groom, she understood his concerns and went above and beyond to meet his needs!
As an anxious dog mum, my fear is the groomers as Neyo has a spinal issue, you made me feel so at ease and most importantly Neyo was relaxed and happy!
I’ve already recommended you to all my doggy parents and Neyo can’t wait to visit again!”
— jodie & Neyo
“Highly recommend a visit here.
We took our Pomchi Dave, who is quite anxious and very nervous around new people. Having an initial meet and greet really calmed him for his grooming session.
Walked through the door to pick him up to find him happy and content curled up on Liz’s lap.
He’s like a new dog and have never seen him looking so dapper. His coat is silky soft and trimmed perfectly.
Thank you for all your advice on upkeep of his coat too. One very happy pooch!”
— Leanne & Dave
“Very friendly and professional service.
Penny was more than happy to go there and stayed without bother and looked fabulous when I collected her.
Nice and relaxed, parking available outside the shop front and great value for money. Thank you very much.”
— Holly & Penny
“Both our dogs are quite nervous of new places but Liz really went the extra mile to ensure they felt safe and comfortable by arranging a short settling in session before their grooming appointment. For their other appointments they were so eager to get through the door (could be the tasty treats of cooked sausages!) and again have come out not only looking and smelling so much better, but also very relaxed.
Would really recommend Liz as a very holistic and true professional approach and empathy for the nervous dogs and their owners.”
— Deb, Maisie & Rufus
“Thank you Liz for the best all round experience for me and my lovely Cockerpoos, Daisy and Coco.
This started with the meet and greet which helped me and the dogs to get accustomed with the environment, brilliant idea. The dogs were quite long and knotty but you took time and patience, and the end result was just brilliant - see you in 6 weeks!
Anyone looking for a fab groomer with that extra special touch, come and see Liz.”
— Gilly, Daisy & Coco
“Liz does an incredible job of making my muddy pup look and smell beautiful!
Grooming used to be a stressful process for her but since changing to F&O, my dog looks forward to going and adores Liz.
She goes totally at the pace your dog is comfortable with and also gives really useful tips for maintaining your dog’s coat at home.
I’d never go anywhere else, highly recommend!”
— Daisy & Plumb
“A lovely relaxed grooming salon and Mabel was made to feel at ease from the moment we walked in.
Mabel had the full works, relaxation, a calming bath with deshedding shampoo and conditioner. Her ears, folds and nose were delicately cleaned and balm applied, and nails carefully filed. She has come home a cleaner and very relaxed dog. would not hesitate to recommend this grooming Spa for anyone's pooches.”
— Bernie & Mabel
“Liz did a lovely groom on my old dog Oscar and was very patient with him! He looked very handsome when I picked him up!”
— Rhona & oscar
“Liz is amazing, took Eddie today for the first time, he was like something possessed, a lot would have given up… but Liz gave him the time and attention and he came out looking beautiful. I can’t thank her enough as he was a nightmare, another appointment booked.”
— Kerry & Eddie
Meet & Greet Consultation
Each new pet to us will start with this initial consultation. In this session I'll advise on general coat care, discuss the treatments you’re interested in. This is also an essential opportunity for your dog to get to know the salon and myself and to understand any of your pet’s individual requirements. Finally you will also fill out registration documents in readiness for your first appointment.
