Get behavior helpMany groomers won't take rabbits or rodents, and many vets only see them when they're ill. Sonia specialized in these animals during her master's, so your bunny, guinea pig or rat gets handling that suits a prey animal: low to the ground, quiet, and never rushed.
Book a small pet visitThe shop stocks the hay, bedding, homes and toys Sonia recommends to her own clients. It focuses on rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters and rats, with supplies for dogs and cats too.

Visit the online shopLots of pets panic during grooming because nobody has taught them it's safe. Because Sonia is trained in behavior, she can read stress signals in a dog's ears, a cat's tail or a rabbit's thump, slow down, and teach your pet to cope instead of just holding them still.
Every groom comes with a short report card: how stressed your pet was, what helped, and one thing to practice at home.
Short visits that build up step by step, for any species. Your pet moves on only when they're relaxed.

Two groomers turned Milo away for snapping. After three short visits he walks in wagging.
I hold a master's degree in grooming and animal behavior, with a specialization in rabbits and rodents. I work with every kind of pet, from big dogs to tiny hamsters, and I plan each groom around how that animal thinks and feels.
