A dedicated, Melbourne grooming studio
She Walks has now established a new studio, based in Carlton North, Melbourne.
We work one on one with your dog, this is so they have our full care and attention.
We have also launched a retail shop on-site, where you can buy our Dog Eats range, as well as the latest, exclusive industry grooming products.
Only the best for your stylish dog
We only sell products that we use with our own dogs. Nicola is the owner of a Lagotto Romagnalo, Labradoodle and Toy Poodle.
She has developed a style of grooming to help fellow owners style their dogs to perfection, so furry friends always leave the studio looking trim and tidy.
We specialise in grooming specific breeds, including:
- Lagotto Romagnalo
- Cavoodle
- Labradoodle
- Border Terriers
- Poodle
- To name but a few!


Specialist dog grooming services
We can offer hand stripping if required and can also help out those furry friends who are in need of just a bath and nail trim.
Visit the dog grooming studio
Every Friday and Saturday, you’ll find us in our private grooming studio situated at 777 Nicholson Street, Carlton North, Melbourne.
Our room is fully equipped with the latest industry products and offers your dog a relaxed space to be pampered in.
Pricing and policies
Full groom from *$95 toy breeds/small dogs
In-between groom from *$90 toy breeds/small dogs
*Extra fee of $30 incurred for matted dogs, dogs that take that little bit longer to groom due to behaviour, or dogs that take a little longer to groom due to irregular grooming appointments.
Nails $15
Bath only from *$55 small dogs / *$85 medium and larger dogs
Breed trim Lagotto $150** starting from small/medium
* Curly coated or fleece coated dogs require re-booking anywhere from 6 – 8 weeks. For you to get the best styled groom, and for your dog to not be on the table too long, we believe the groom should be completed in 2 – 2.5 hours. Regular grooming helps your dog maintain a beautiful coat, and allows us to provide the best groom possible.
** The Lagotto breed trim takes more time than a usual groom, because of their tight curly coat. There is a 3-stage process before we get the coat ready for clipping. It’s important to maintain a schedule of grooming so that your dog is not on the table for too long and the process is as easy and enjoyable for him or her. We advise a regular grooming schedule, (anywhere from 6, 7 or 8 weekly) based on your dog’s coat type.
Cancellation Policy: As we work one on one, we require a 48 hour notice on cancellations, this is so we can fill your spot to a doggie in need.
