About me

Since 2017 I have been the proud owner of my own salon in Moreton in Marsh, where we groom all breeds and specialise in breed standard and show grooming as well as coat maintenance and teeth cleaning. We focus on the welfare of every animal in our care, ensuring they look and feel wonderful when their owners come to collect them.

I have always been passionate about animals and had thoughts of becoming a veterinarian.

My first dog, a Rough Coated Collie, immersed me in the dog showing world. I thought I was in paradise and quickly learned that the most successful dogs were groomed to perfection. That became my motivation and that I needed to become a groomer to have showring success with my own dog.

Having started my working life as a chef, I swapped busy kitchens for equally busy grooming salons. Training with one of the best dog groomers in Spain, Lassie Gomez, who also trained with Umberto Lehmann, the president of the European Groomers Association. My career in grooming started with the highflyers, which suited me very well as I also have a pilot’s license!

After initial training and gaining experience with Lassie and within a veterinary clinic for several years, I decided to start my own salon in Spain and continue to attend competition shows with my beloved Scottish Terriers. On 2015, I went to America to one of the Best Grooming Contest which I compete on Handstripping Class on Scottish Terrier  with a great results 2nd on my class, it was an amazing experience also I attended so many seminars to improve my Skills. 

I came to England and studied for my Professional qualifications and was delighted to receive ‘Up and Coming Groomer of The Year Award’ in 2016.

Learning and becoming more knowledgeable is especially important for me and my current studies are towards becoming an International Certified Master Groomer (ICMG)

I love being busy working with clients but also enjoying competitions with my own four dogs, beloved Scottish Terrier and three poodles.

Being surrounded by my passion for animals is a wonderful and is far away from being just a job, it is most definitely a way of life.

    We moved to Moreton-in-Marsh a little over two years ago after living abroad with our Samoyed-cross, Shadow. He's a bit of a stand out dog, who has become well-known at the school gates and around town in a short space of time. All I can say is that Cynthia understands "his celebrity" and ensures he is looking at his best at all times! :-) In absolute seriousness, Cynthia and Passion Grooms provides a superb, expert, service - and at very competitive rates. Look no further. You have found a gem here!

    Cynthia is a true professional. She is thorough and an expert in her field. She knows how to handle your pet and make them look show quality. We’ve been very happy with the results on our fluffy collie/Australian shepherd mix who doesn’t like being groomed. I recommend her wholeheartedly! She’s truly the best.

  • Julie Jones

    So happy to have found Cynthia. She is so professional but lovely too. My beautiful dog Dottie is a large dog with a very woolly coat and Cynthia worked her magic.

  • Margaret Newsham

    We have been taking our 3 clumber spaniels to Cynthia for 5 years now. Her skill and talent has helped us make our youngest boy Foggy up to his title of Show Champion, with many judges commenting on his wonderful presentation. Cynthia is not just a fabulous groomer she has become a wonderful friend. It goes without saying we cannot recommend her highly enough.

  • Vikki Lomas

    Cynthia groomed our lovely little Yorkie puppy, Belle, yesterday for the first time. She was a little knotty, and it was the first time to the groomer for Belle. I needn't have worried, as Cynthia did a beautiful job, and Belle now looks wonderful. She's smooth, adorable and smells divine. We'll be seeing Cynthia again in a few months.

    Finding Cynthia was a Godsend for our now 4 years old Border Terrier Charlie. He had a very scary experience with a previous groomer, was left with scabs, all over his body, bold patches and so on. Cynthia has been looking after Charlie for the past two years and we have nothing but praises for her skills, professional conduct, and most of all care. She's extremely skilled and patient, we wouldn't change her for the world. Thank you for saving Charlie. We love you Cynthia. xxx

    I can not praise Cynthia highly enough! Our dogs (Standard Schnauzer Fritz and Shi-Tzu Oskar) get groomed by her monthly since 3 years and simply adore her. They are always excited to see her with zero anxiety. Cynthia was very specific asking questions how I wanted them to be groomed, because I didn't exactly go for the breed standards. She does miracles every time and our boys get complimented on their looks on a daily base. Fritz has some spine degeneration and should not be strapped in during grooming as per vet's request. When I asked her to groom him without strap, she told me that's what she does anyway already as he is very calm and would not move on the table. So she really thinks ahead and really turns grooming sessions into a very positive experience for dogs, thank you so much for your care!

    I highly recommend Cynthia, both my dogs Bonnie and Indie always come away looking and smelling amazing. Cynthia is kind and caring and and puts my dogs at ease. Couldn’t recommend Passion Grooms highly enough.
