Welcome to Pimp My Pet

Hi, I’m your dog groomer, Chuckie.

With over 18 years experience, Academy trained and IPG certified, I love dogs of all shapes, sizes and breeds. My salon is quiet and offers a one-on-one service to ensure a calm environment for your pet. To give you the best service possible, I regularly attend seminars and workshops. I also compete when I can but my love is to groom and show dogs for breeders. I am also Lucky enough to be a part of the igroom hub team and able to pass on my knowledge to new groomers with their online tutorials. As a member of the Dog Groomers Association Of WA I adhere to their motto  “Grooming with knowledge and humanity”

I offer a wide variety of grooming services, from your basic bath or pet clip to your breed specific trim. Hand Stripping is my specialty.

You can find my salon in the tranquil surrounds of the Fur Kidz Resort in Canning Vale, Western Australia. To book, please call me on 0424 491 001 and leave a message, I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.

    positive review  Alfie came to Chuckie for the first time this week and came out looking fabulous! He isn't the easiest to work with as he has a firm westitude but Chuckie did an absolute 10/10 job on him. Thank you so much!

  • positive review  We take our Cairn Terrier Scrabble to get hand stripped. He looks fantastic after seeing Chuckie, and she is just so lovely with the dogs. 🙂

    Angie Boyce

    positive review  My dog Margaret has always been extremely nervous of haircuts since her toenails where clipped too much, making her bleed. We’ve tried a few groomers but Maggie remained so stressed. But along cane Pimp My Pet and we’ve not had an issue - the service is fabulous and Maggie seems way happier. Chucky is a dog whisperer and is now stuck with us 😉

    My Westie Hamish loves going to see Chuckie for a clip. Chuckie is always happy to see him. Hes happy from the time i drop him off and Chuckie always makes Hamish look amazing.

    Kenny Heng

    After having bad experiences with some of our local groomers, my partner and I are happy to travel to ensure our two boys, Django and Finn get a great haircut. Chuckie is professional and very patient with our dogs. Will be back for their next cut!

    Cal Groom

    We have had an amazing experience with Chuckie she was amazingly friendly towards us and our boys. I was so happy when I picked them up and they were happy and content not to mention looking very handsome. We will be back for sure �

    Naomi Mullan

    Maysie was very relaxed and comfortable with chuckie and seemed to enjoy being pampered. We are very happy with her first real Westie groom. Can't believe our 7 month old was so good she's usually a bit of a devil. Thanks chuckie.

    Rebecca McKenzie

  • Chuckie looks after my Lily like her very own. Highly recommended for pet grooming.

    Ray Anthony

    Thank you for making my Shiba Inu feel so relaxed and happy during her first professional groom. She looks beautiful! I'll be back with my Staffy soon xx

    Kimberley Chinnery

    Chuckie always does a superb job and she clearly loves what she does. Our dog can be a bit timid but still loves going to see her for his haircuts, and he always comes out looking fantastic! Would highly recommend Chuckie

    Mathew Weston

    I have been coming to Jamie for 13 years. She was brilliant with our first dog. Now with our new puppy Jamie is still just as fabulous. My mum takes her dog to her now too. Jamie is great at what she does and I will never go to anyone else!

    Carly Bizzaca

  • Thank you Chuckie for doing such a great job of grooming Murphy my Irish Terrier. He looks even more beautiful than ever. It was his first time and I was so nervous for him but he was just fine you treated him just the same as I do and obviously love your job �

    Angela Burton

    Thank you Chucky for an awesome job. We were so apprehensive about having our two Irish Terriers hand stripped, not wanting to cause them any stress or unhappiness. We needn't have worried. Chucky's good advice and professional approach were spot on. Lovely caring lady. We will be very happy to return.

    Malcolm Rodgers

    We love Pimp My Pet!! This was Julio the brave (not) second visit for a clip. He looks fabulous. Thank you so much for your care and kindness.

    Took my 5.5 month old puppy in for a trim. He immediately loved Chucky and she did an awesome job on our shaggy labradoodle, uncovering his true personality that was hidden underneath all the hair! Can't thank you enough. We shall be back!

    Sachelle Corbett

    Discovered Pimp My Pet last year when Bella stayed at Fur Kidz Resort and was very happy with the the result. Since then we've taken Bella to other groomers who were closer to home but have decided to return to Pimp My Pet. Chuckie is so knowledgable and caring and Bella looks so good after her visit.

    Jill Templar

    Our dog Gypsy absolutely loves Chuckie. The happy grunts & groans she makes when she knows it is wash day amaze us, she is so excited. Would definitely recommend, you can tell she genuinely cares and loves animals.

RESPONSE AFTER VOICEMAIL WAS LEFT YESTERDAY. I’ve noticed lately Groomers are being criticised for refusing doodle crossbreeds, and I need to be clear about why I no longer take anymore on.After 20 years grooming, 98% of doodles that has come through my salon has been medicated for anxiety, are hyper and are a risk to groom. My last two serious bites were from oodles and my shoulder injured. That’s not bias — that’s experience and safety.On top of that, many previous doodle owners have told me they would never choose this breed again after living with the coat, anxiety, and grooming realities.In my opinion majority of these dogs are not bred for coat type or stable temperament, and I can no longer support breeding that ignores both.Every professional groomer has the right to decide what they will and won’t groom. That choice is based on safety, ethics, and sustainability — and it’s no one else’s business.Saying no doesn’t make you unprofessional, lazy or precious. It means you know your limits and respect them.#groomingeducation #groomerssupportinggroomers #groomerlife #doggroominglife🐾✂️

My happy place. So lucky to be given this opportunity.. @dodgenottingham @sneridah Beautiful photos by @jodie_grieve product used @ivsanbernardaustralia #roughnutsaustralianterriers #aussieterrier #handstripping #

JENSON!! Temporary floof, permanent attitude. The blow dryer can’t tame a Cairn, babe. I promise it will settle!! Products used @ivsanbernardaustralia @dominatehair #handstripping #cairnterrier learn how with @igroomhub

My two favourite coat products for the show dogs @ivsanbernardaustralia  Black Passion and Green Caviar 10 in 1 Treatment. Using the foaming technique at a 1:3 ratio, a little goes a LONG way… only 10ml of product to 30ml of water. Ben is owned by @battlestar_jacks

Safe to say the poodle left thinking he was the absolute duck’s nuts.

Riley the Cairn Terrier came in for his very first hand strip today… and what a little legend he was 👏🐾

No drama, no negotiations, no tiny terrier tantrums — just stood there like a pro and took it all in stride. Safe to say Riley understood the assignment.

Fresh coat, tidy shape, and still full of that classic cheeky Cairn attitude ✨🐶 #cairnterrier #handstripping

Scruppers the young Cairn Terrier came in for his first hand stripping session a little late to the party, but he made an entrance.He fought a good fight at the start, tried the death roll, but once he realised hand stripping wasn’t the end of the world, he settled beautifully and came good in the endFirst sessions can be full of opinions, but Scruppers did well, learnt a lot, and left looking every bit the smart little Cairn Terrier he is. Pretty chuffed with himself #cairnterrier #handstripping
