WHO WE ARE
Two friends, with different skills,Yvonne Knox and Fiona Lyle, had an idea; to join forces to set up and run their own dog grooming service This was the birth of Kip&Kaboodle Yvonne has been involved with animals since childhood. When living in New Zealand she qualified as an animal nurse. She then went on to run her own kennels and cattery Family ties brought her back to the UK where after a time working in an Owl sanctuary, she took an office job near Stirling.That job ended when she was made redundant. Now Yvonne had the time and money to question what she REALLY wanted to do, the answer was to train as a Dog groomer and get back to living and working with animals. She chose to do her training inAlmunecar, Spain with Claire and Chris who have been grooming dogs for years. http://www.perrossi.com |

Also a dog lover, Fiona has been: a host with ‘Barking Mad’-having dogs for their holidays, is a registered breeder with the kennel club for her Border terrier bitch and has experience of being self employed.
