Dedicated professionals with a genuine passion for animal welfare and expert grooming techniques
sepia-birch began in 2020 when founder Rebecca Turner recognised a gap in Wolverhampton's pet care landscape. Having worked in veterinary clinics for nearly a decade, she witnessed firsthand how stressful traditional grooming environments could be for many animals.
The solution seemed clear: bring the grooming studio to the pet, not the other way around. What started with a converted van and a handful of loyal clients has grown into a trusted local service covering twelve neighbourhoods across the city.
Today, our small but dedicated team maintains the same founding principle: every pet deserves patient, individualised attention in surroundings where they feel safe.
Core values that shape every interaction with your pet
We approach every animal with patience and gentleness, recognising that each pet has their own comfort level and boundaries.
Your pet's physical and emotional wellbeing is paramount. We use only veterinary-approved products and techniques.
We're proud members of the Wolverhampton community, supporting local animal charities and rescue organisations.
Qualified professionals who genuinely love working with animals
Founder and Lead Groomer. City & Guilds Level 3 certified with additional training in canine behaviour. Particularly skilled with anxious and senior pets.
Pet Care Specialist and Home Visit Coordinator. Former veterinary nurse assistant with six years of hands-on animal care experience.
Junior Groomer and Customer Relations. Currently completing advanced grooming certification. Specialises in breed-specific styling for small dogs.
Every appointment begins with a brief assessment of your pet's mood, coat condition, and any concerns you might have. This allows us to tailor our approach on the day rather than applying a one-size-fits-all routine.
For new clients, we recommend starting with an introductory session. This gives your pet time to become familiar with our team member, our equipment, and the process itself—all without the pressure of a full grooming appointment.
Communication matters to us. After each visit, you'll receive notes on what we observed, any areas of concern, and recommendations for at-home maintenance between appointments.
