The UAE’s rising number of expatriates has seen a huge influx in another kind of resident – pet dogs. In recent years, the Emirates has become a nation of pup lovers, with all manner of businesses popping up to meet the many needs of our furry friends.
One of the most notable success stories in this field is Shampooch. Famous for its bright pink and yellow vans that can be seen all around Dubai, the company started out as a mobile dog groomer. Shampooch’s to your door, expert one-on-one pooch pampering service quickly led to a reputation for luxury with a personal touch.
Over the 14 years since the business has expanded to include many more services in its impressive portfolio.
Shampooch now has a dedicated daycare play space designed especially for the entertainment and care of four-legged friends. Staff are committed to helping dogs socialise, learn new tricks, and, most importantly, stay safe while their human owners are otherwise occupied.
To ensure all dogs get the very best experience, Shampooch’s expert team offers temperament evaluations. This simple “meet and greet” style service allows the team to assign dogs into suitable playgroups depending on size and personality.
The company also now offers salon grooming for those who prefer to drop off their pet rather than book a home visit. The fully stocked salon offers everything that a pampered pooch could ever desire, from hand scissored grooming to all natural shampoos and conditioners.
As if this were not enough for the UAE’s spoiled pets, Shampooch’s Boutique Dog Hotel promises a canine staycation to match your vacation, with spacious kennels, advanced technology air filtration systems, and all the treats, cuddles, and exercise a pup could ask for.
Shampooch’s success is a shining example of what can happen when you follow your passion as an entrepreneur. The family-run business believes that dogs deserve the very best care – and that is reflected in every single service on offer.
