About Us
Dapper Dogs Day Spa is a wellbeing-first pet grooming studio based in Trevallyn, Northern Tasmania.
Founded by experienced pet groomer Konor Kruse, Dapper Dogs Day Spa was created to redefine grooming. More than a grooming service, Dapper Dogs prioritises animal comfort, calm handling and long-term wellbeing ahead of speed or appearances alone.
Konor brings a clinically informed approach to grooming, with a strong focus on gentle techniques, clear communication and understanding each dog’s individual needs. Every groom is approached with patience, care and respect, creating a calmer experience for dogs and greater confidence for their owners.
Our beliefs
Dapper Dogs Day Spa is built on the belief that grooming should support a dog’s health, comfort and quality of life. Through transparent conversations, practical coat-care guidance and a judgement-free environment, owners are empowered to better care for their dogs between visits.
More than a grooming salon, Dapper Dogs Day Spa is a place where wellbeing comes first, trust is built over time and every dog is treated as an individual.
Our Guiding Values
-
Every decision starts with the animal’s comfort and safety. We prioritise calm handling, low-stress techniques and individual needs, ensuring each groom supports wellbeing, not just appearance.
-
We communicate openly about what we see, what your dog needs and why. We lead with clarity, transparency, and zero judgement giving you honest advice and pricing you can rely on.
-
We share practical grooming knowledge without judgement or jargon. Our goal is to empower owners with clear, supportive guidance that helps them care for their dogs between visits.
-
We create a calm, welcoming environment where dogs and owners feel at ease. Friendly communication and genuine care make every visit relaxed and reassuring.

Our support extends beyond the groom. We offer ongoing advice, recommendations and follow-up to help maintain your dog’s comfort, coat health and overall wellbeing.
