Who We Are?
Our Greatest passion......
Spoiling, loving and caring for our Fur-kids is the very reason I joined “The Pooch Parlour” in 1996! The need for a safe, stress free, fun, loving and comfortable environment is of utmost importance for our customer’s babies and our mission is to provide exactly that.
The Pooch Parlour opened their doors in 1973, one of only 3 salons in Alberton at the time. With Suzanne at the stern since 2003 and thousands of four paws beautifully groomed, we can proudly say that we are still known for our kind and gentle expert way with fur-babies.
Our loyal customers testimonials will bear witness to the above!
“We clean ’em cos we luv ’em”
Our Pooch Parlour culture...
… is aimed at the very best service, highest quality products, customer satisfaction and most of all the happy tail wags and face licks of our babies.
Our Pooch team consist of 10 individuals with one common quality, we are all lovers and spoilers of Pet-children. We give the same care and attention to your Fluffy or Fi-Fi as we care for our own human children
We have love, patience, skills,
understanding of pet behavior and acquired years of experience through working together.
We are truly a pet-loving family with hardly any staff turn over, we stick together and we have a personal relationship with our fur-kids and customers

Our Happy Clients!
"The staff are absolutely amazing from collection to grooming to delivering. I have been a customer of The Pooch Parlour for over 20 years and wouldn't dream of using anyone else. I just love this team and so do my fur babies."
Traci Holdcroft
"My Maltese poodle gets very exited when we arrive at The Pooch Parlour. The staff are very friendly and efficient. Suzanne is very good at giving advice if he has a problem. He comes home looking and smelling great."
Julie Moncur
"Suzanne and her amazing team have been taking care of our pets for the last 19 years. Would recommend Pooch Parlour to anyone who wants a professional and caring dog parlour. Would not go anywhere else!"
Ronelle Joubert
"Nie net lewer Pooch Parlour 'n spa-dag vir my hondekinders nie, maar is altyd bereid om die ekstra myl te loop - so is ek selfs bygestaan gedurende die pandemie toe Suzanne met Adri reel om my siek baba hondjie VET toe te vat omdat ek Covid gehad het. Dit het sy lewe gered. Dankie Pooch Parlour vir al die liefde wat julle aan ons woefies betoon."
Cris, Hermien en die Geldenhuys hondekinders
"The staff at The Pooch Parlour are incredibly friendly and professional, and always make sure Spike is comfortable and happy for the last 15 years. Thank you for taking such great care of Spike for many years. Even more now in his golden years. I highly recommend the Poochy Parlour to any pet owner looking for exceptional grooming services."
Elizabeth van der Walt
"The Pooch Parlour has been an integral part of our lives. Every Thursday promptly the Van appears at our gate. Lunie, Blommie, Roxy, Axel, Sue, Gracie, Vonkie Bella and Daisy awaits the spa treatment! My doggies adore Adri - and cannot wait for her to arrive!! Truly and institutional business in Alberton!!! Taking them with when it is time to semi-grate else where."
