The Team
Tanya and her mum, Wendy, founded Brittanya in 2008. Back then, it was called Mucky Pups but a name change to Brittanya occured in 2012 and Wendy retired in 2013. Together, they created a grooming salon based on their belief that pet grooming should be as safe and pleasant for the dogs as possible. This continues to be the ethos to this day.
Tanya holds her City & Guilds Level 3 diploma in Pet Grooming and is a qualified Pet First Responder. She has appeared on television showcasing her dog grooming skills and has achieved numerous awards for her grooming talents and also judges in grooming competitions.
Her own pets are:
Amber, the Standard Poodle; Luna and Tori, the Chihuahua’s; and Perry, the Sphynx Cat.

Aimee joined the team in April 2017 as an apprentice and since progressed to being a full time stylist and now Assistant Manager. The furry loves of her life are Gus, her chocolate Labrador and Pedro, her Newforest Pony.
Chloe joined the team in March 2016 after working with us for a year on Saturdays. She now heads up the bathing and preparation areas and is training to become a stylist. Her own dog is Barney who she rescued from HULA in 2022.
A team that has been together for so long works extremely well together. Once a year we will also take on a work experience student from Moulton College studying Animal Welfare.
Speaking of which …
Alex joined us two years ago on work experience through Moulton College and has now joined us as a full time employee as a Dog Grooming Apprentice with the College of Animal Welfare. He and his family have four dogs but his personal shadow is Dasch, the Toy Poodle.
