"I trained to be a Dog Groomer at Top Trimz on a 28-day course ending in 2014, this was one of the best decisions I have made career-wise. I have a job that I love and that I can fit around my family life, and that has given me the opportunity to work for myself and be my own boss. I can't speak highly enough of the training I received at Top Trimz, if you are considering a job in dog grooming look no further, you wont regret it."

"There is a lot more to it than meets the eye and the course is quite intense, however, I thoroughly enjoyed and Marie works very hard to ensure you have all the right skills to build your ability and confidence. I opened my salon 18 months ago and it is a thriving business and building all the time. I tell everyone I trained with the best."

"I thoroughly enjoyed my time here at Top Trimz. I now have the knowledge and experience to help me kick start my career. Marie and Catherine were so helpful and their knowledge is beyond compare. I wouldn't have wanted training elsewhere."
Beth Jobson | Training completed in 2015
"Ive had a wonderful and enjoyable course here at Top Trimz, couldn't have asked for anymore. Marie and Catherine have been totally amazing, so friendly, welcoming and understanding. I wish I could do it all again."
Nicola Mann | 2015
Top Trimz are extremely professional and deliver fantastic training. The training programme is varied in delivery and is learner centred throughout. Elements of the training I particularly liked were; induction, practical hands on work, observing demonstrations, group discussions and applying some of the theory work to practice. Every day I would come away motivated and looking forward to the next learning experience.

"I was one of Marie's first students in 2012, after leaving my job as a supervisor for 14 years I took a 28-day course with Top Trimz and the training I received was exceptional, an opinion shared by the other students training with me. We all went on to run our own successful business' , and all keep in touch to this day and still have support from Marie if needed. I have a lovely customer base and make over 3 times the salary I did as a supervisor. I've never looked back, and within the next year or two, I plan to open a Main Street shop and employ staff to help with my ever-increasing business."
