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; Finn the rescue mutt; and Perry, the Sphynx Cat.

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 an assistant 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.

On Saturdays and school holidays, Tanya’s son, Andrei, helps out and is learning the ropes. He has aspirations to take over the business one day.
