Product Images, Mock-Ups and Colour Accuracy

Product photographs and digital mock-ups displayed on this website are provided for illustrative purposes only.

Many of our products are manufactured using sublimation printing, direct-to-film printing, vinyl application or other personalised production methods. Accordingly, the finished product may differ slightly from the digital representation shown on this website.

Whilst Boops & Kisses Pet Care makes every reasonable effort to accurately represent colours, sizing, positioning, finishes and overall appearance, slight variations may occur due to factors including, but not limited to:

• individual monitor and mobile device settings;
• screen brightness and colour calibration;
• printing methods;
• manufacturing tolerances;
• substrate materials;
• fabric composition;
• ink absorption; and
• supplier variations.

Such variations shall not constitute a defect or grounds for cancellation, refund or replacement.

Personalised Products

Products customised or personalised to a customer’s individual specification are produced specifically for that customer.

Customers are responsible for ensuring that all names, dates, wording, spellings, photographs, artwork and personalisation details submitted at the time of ordering are accurate.

Once production has commenced, amendments may not be possible.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care accepts no responsibility for errors resulting from inaccurate information supplied by the customer.

Order Cancellation

Customers may request cancellation of an order only before production, printing or personalisation has commenced.

Once production has begun, the order becomes bespoke in nature and cannot be cancelled.

Where production has commenced, no refund shall be payable unless otherwise required by applicable consumer legislation.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the right to refuse cancellation requests once manufacturing has commenced.

Refunds, Returns and Replacements

In accordance with the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013, personalised or bespoke products manufactured to a customer’s specification are exempt from the statutory right to cancel.

Accordingly, Boops & Kisses Pet Care does not accept returns, exchanges or refunds for personalised items that have been correctly produced in accordance with the customer’s approved order.

Nothing within these Terms excludes or limits a customer’s statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 where goods are faulty, damaged, not as described or otherwise fail to meet the required legal standard.

If a product is received damaged, defective or incorrect, customers must notify Boops & Kisses Pet Care within a reasonable period after delivery and provide:

• clear photographs of the affected product;
• photographs of the external packaging;
• photographs of any internal packaging where applicable; and
• any further information reasonably requested to investigate the claim.

Failure to provide sufficient evidence may delay or prevent the processing of a claim.

Every product undergoes quality inspection prior to dispatch.

Customer-Supplied Images and Artwork

Customers warrant that all photographs, artwork, logos, designs and other content supplied for personalisation are suitable for reproduction and do not infringe the intellectual property rights or other legal rights of any third party.

For optimum print quality, Boops & Kisses Pet Care recommends that images supplied are:

• a minimum resolution of 300 DPI;
• at least 2000 × 2000 pixels; and
• original high-quality image files wherever possible.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care accepts no responsibility for poor print quality arising from low-resolution, compressed, pixelated, blurred or otherwise unsuitable images supplied by the customer.

Where image quality concerns are identified before production, reasonable efforts will be made to contact the customer. However, where no response is received within a reasonable timeframe, Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the right to proceed with production using the files originally supplied in order to avoid unreasonable delays.

Copyright in Customer Content

Customers remain solely responsible for ensuring they possess all necessary copyright permissions, licences or other legal rights to reproduce any image, photograph, logo, artwork or design submitted for personalisation.

Images obtained from internet search engines, including Google Images, social media platforms or other online sources are frequently protected by copyright and may not be lawfully reproduced for commercial purposes.

By submitting artwork, customers warrant that they have all necessary legal authority to authorise its reproduction.

Customers agree to indemnify and keep indemnified Boops & Kisses Pet Care against any claims, losses, damages, legal costs or liabilities arising from the reproduction of customer-supplied material that infringes the rights of any third party.

Delivery, Dispatch and Production Times

Delivery services selected during checkout relate solely to the postal or courier service used following dispatch and do not include production or manufacturing time.

Estimated production times are provided for guidance only and shall not constitute a contractual guarantee.

If an order is required by a specific date, customers should contact Boops & Kisses Pet Care before placing their order.

Whilst every reasonable effort will be made to meet requested timescales, no guarantee is given that an order will be completed or delivered by a particular date.

Where necessary, customers may be advised to upgrade to an expedited delivery service at additional cost.

Nail Trimming Procedure

The health, welfare and safety of every pet remain the primary consideration throughout the nail trimming process.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care will determine, at its sole professional discretion, the most appropriate method of nail trimming based upon the individual pet’s temperament, behaviour, health, nail condition and overall tolerance of the procedure.

Nails may be trimmed using professional nail clippers, a nail grinder or a combination of both techniques.

Where a pet displays signs of anxiety, stress or discomfort, or where the quick extends close to the nail tip leaving limited nail available for safe trimming, a nail grinder may be used to reduce the risk of discomfort or accidental injury. Customers acknowledge that the use of a nail grinder may increase the duration of the appointment.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care does not guarantee that every nail can be shortened to a customer’s preferred length where doing so would compromise the welfare or safety of the pet.

Owner Assistance

Where reasonably required, the owner or an authorised representative may be requested to assist by safely holding, supporting or reassuring their pet throughout the procedure.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the right to determine whether owner assistance is necessary to safely complete the appointment.

Failure or refusal to provide reasonable assistance where requested may result in the procedure being discontinued if, in the professional opinion of Boops & Kisses Pet Care, it would be unsafe or detrimental to continue.

Incomplete Nail Trimming Appointments

Whilst every reasonable effort will be made to complete the nail trimming service during the scheduled appointment, there may be occasions where this is not possible.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the right to discontinue or postpone the procedure where, in its sole professional judgement:

• the pet becomes excessively anxious, distressed or aggressive;
• the pet cannot be safely handled;
• additional assistance is required but is unavailable;
• continuing the procedure may compromise the health, welfare or safety of the pet or any person present; or
• any other circumstance arises that makes completion of the service unsafe or inappropriate.

Where an appointment cannot be safely completed, a further appointment may be offered.

If the follow-up appointment is carried out at the customer’s premises, only the applicable mileage charge shall be payable, provided the original nail/grooming fee has already been paid. Where the customer attends the grooming salon for the follow-up appointment, no additional nail trimming fee shall be charged.

Limitation of Liability

Boops & Kisses Pet Care shall exercise all reasonable skill, care and professional judgement when carrying out nail trimming services.

However, customers acknowledge that nail trimming involves an inherent risk of minor injury, including accidental contact with the quick, particularly where the quick has naturally extended, the nail structure prevents visual identification of the quick, or where the pet moves unexpectedly during the procedure.

Accordingly, Boops & Kisses Pet Care shall not be liable for any minor bleeding or accidental injury resulting from:

• unexpectedly long or concealed quicks;
• sudden, unexpected or involuntary movement by the pet;
• inaccurate or incomplete information provided by the owner regarding the pet’s behaviour or medical condition; or
• circumstances beyond the reasonable control of Boops & Kisses Pet Care.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded under the laws of England and Wales.

Refusal or Discontinuation of Service

Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the absolute right to refuse, postpone or discontinue a nail trimming service at any stage where, in its sole professional opinion, it would be unsafe, inappropriate or contrary to the welfare of the pet to proceed.

No pet shall be subjected to excessive restraint, force or unnecessary stress for the purpose of completing a nail trim.

Where a pet is unable to safely tolerate the procedure, customers may be advised to seek assistance from a veterinary surgeon. A veterinary practice may be able to undertake the procedure using alternative handling techniques or, where clinically appropriate, sedation.

The decision to refuse or discontinue a service shall be final and shall be made solely in the interests of animal welfare and the safety of all persons involved.

Last Updated: 12 October 2026
Effective Date: 09 September 2024

Introduction

These Terms and Conditions govern the provision of all dog grooming and associated services supplied by Boops & Kisses Pet Care (“the Groomer”, “we”, “our” or “us”).

By making an enquiry, submitting a booking request, paying a deposit, attending an appointment or otherwise using any service provided by Boops & Kisses Pet Care, the owner, keeper or authorised representative of the dog (“the Customer”) confirms that they have read, understood and agree to be legally bound by these Terms and Conditions.

These Terms are intended to safeguard the health, welfare and safety of all dogs entrusted to our care whilst protecting the interests of our customers, staff and business.

Nothing contained within these Terms and Conditions shall affect or limit any statutory rights afforded to consumers under the laws of England and Wales.

Health, Welfare and Veterinary Information

The Customer warrants that, to the best of their knowledge, the dog presented for grooming is fit, healthy and suitable to undergo the requested grooming services.

The Customer shall disclose prior to every appointment any information that may reasonably affect the safety, welfare or handling of the dog, including but not limited to:

• epilepsy;
• diabetes;
• arthritis;
• heart disease;
• respiratory conditions;
• allergies;
• skin disorders;
• recent surgery or injury;
• medication;
• anxiety;
• nervousness;
• aggression;
• previous biting incidents; or
• any other medical or behavioural condition.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care relies upon the accuracy and completeness of information supplied by the Customer. We shall not be liable for any injury, illness, delay or additional costs arising from inaccurate, incomplete or undisclosed information.

Dogs showing signs of illness, infectious disease, significant pain or any condition which, in our professional opinion, may compromise their welfare or the safety of others may be refused admission or have their appointment terminated immediately.

Whilst vaccination remains a matter for the owner’s personal decision and veterinary advice, Customers acknowledge that Boops & Kisses Pet Care cannot guarantee that dogs attending the premises will be vaccinated. We maintain strict hygiene procedures, including the cleaning and disinfection of grooming equipment, workstations and contact surfaces between appointments, to minimise the risk of disease transmission.

Puppies attending their first grooming appointment must be at least twelve (12) weeks of age and have completed any vaccinations required by the owner or their veterinary surgeon. Wherever reasonably possible, puppies should be introduced to professional grooming before sixteen (16) weeks of age to encourage positive lifelong grooming experiences.

Grooming Risks and Veterinary Treatment

The Customer acknowledges that professional dog grooming involves the use of sharp instruments, heated equipment, electrical appliances and handling techniques, all of which carry an inherent risk of accidental injury despite the exercise of reasonable skill and care.

Every reasonable precaution shall be taken to minimise such risks. However, Boops & Kisses Pet Care cannot guarantee that accidents will never occur.

Dogs presenting with matted coats, skin conditions, elderly age, behavioural difficulties or undisclosed medical conditions are at an increased risk of clipper irritation, skin abrasions, accidental nicks, bruising, coat loss or the exposure of previously concealed skin conditions.

The Customer expressly accepts these inherent risks when instructing Boops & Kisses Pet Care to carry out grooming services.

Where a dog suffers an illness, injury or medical emergency whilst in our care, Boops & Kisses Pet Care may administer appropriate canine first aid where reasonably necessary.

Where, in our reasonable opinion, veterinary attention is required, every reasonable attempt will be made to contact the Customer before treatment is sought.

If the Customer cannot be contacted within a reasonable period and urgent veterinary treatment is considered necessary to protect the health or welfare of the dog, the Customer authorises Boops & Kisses Pet Care to obtain such treatment on the dog’s behalf.

Unless the need for veterinary treatment results directly from proven negligence on the part of Boops & Kisses Pet Care, all veterinary fees, medication, consultation charges, transport costs and associated expenses shall remain the sole responsibility of the Customer.

Any concerns regarding the quality of a groom or any alleged injury must be reported to Boops & Kisses Pet Care within twenty-four (24) hours of the appointment. Failure to notify us within this period may affect our ability to investigate the matter.

Behaviour and Handling

The Customer shall disclose any history of aggression, biting, excessive anxiety or behavioural concerns before each appointment.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the absolute right to refuse, suspend or discontinue grooming at any stage where, in our sole professional judgement, the dog’s behaviour presents an unacceptable risk to its own welfare, to other animals, to Customers or to members of staff.

No dog shall be subjected to excessive restraint, force or unnecessary stress for the purpose of completing a groom.

Where a dog cannot safely tolerate part or all of the grooming process, Boops & Kisses Pet Care may modify, shorten or discontinue the service without liability.

Where grooming is discontinued due to behavioural concerns, the full grooming fee together with any additional handling charges reasonably incurred shall remain payable.

Muzzle Requirement

It is the owner’s responsibility to provide a suitable muzzle for their dog where they are aware, or have been advised, that their dog presents a bite risk or may pose a risk to the safety of our groomer or others.

Where a muzzle is required, the owner must provide a suitable, correctly fitted muzzle that their dog is comfortable wearing. The muzzle must allow the dog to breathe, pant and drink safely.

If a muzzle is required but the owner is unwilling or unable to provide one, we kindly ask that the dog is not brought into the salon. We reserve the right to refuse or discontinue a grooming appointment where we believe a dog presents a safety risk and appropriate safety measures have not been provided.

Pregnant Dogs, Dogs in Season and Sedation

Boops & Kisses Pet Care does not groom dogs that have been sedated under any circumstances.

Pregnant dogs are accepted entirely at the Customer’s own risk. Whilst every reasonable care shall be exercised, Boops & Kisses Pet Care accepts no liability for pregnancy-related complications arising before, during or after the grooming appointment unless caused by our negligence.

Dogs that are in season should not attend the salon. If a dog arrives whilst in season, Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the right to postpone or cancel the appointment in the interests of hygiene, safety and the welfare of other dogs attending the premises.

Coat Condition and Styling

The Customer is responsible for maintaining their dog’s coat between grooming appointments through appropriate brushing, combing and general coat care.

Where severe matting is present, Boops & Kisses Pet Care shall determine the most humane and appropriate method of coat removal.

Where, in our professional opinion, brushing or de-matting would cause unnecessary pain, distress or compromise the dog’s welfare, we may require the coat to be clipped short.

Where reasonably practicable, the proposed clipping procedure shall be discussed with the Customer before grooming commences.

The Customer acknowledges that clipping severely matted coats may expose pre-existing skin conditions, parasites, sores, bruising, haematomas, irritation, infections or other underlying medical issues that were previously concealed beneath the coat.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care shall not be liable for any medical condition revealed as a consequence of removing a severely matted coat.

The Groomer’s professional judgement regarding the health, welfare and safety of the dog shall take precedence over any cosmetic styling request.

Fleas, Parasites and Infectious Conditions

The Customer warrants that, to the best of their knowledge, the dog is free from fleas, ticks, mites and any other contagious parasite or infectious condition at the time of attending their grooming appointment.

Where fleas, flea dirt, ticks or other parasites are identified during a grooming appointment, Boops & Kisses Pet Care shall make every reasonable effort to contact the Customer before proceeding. In the interests of animal welfare, we will not knowingly allow a dog to remain untreated for an active flea or parasite infestation whilst in our care. Where appropriate, a flea shampoo treatment service may be administered before grooming continues, and an additional charge will be added to the Customer’s final invoice to cover the cost of the treatment together with any reasonable additional time, cleaning and sanitisation required. Such treatment is carried out to protect the welfare of the affected dog and to minimise the risk of cross-contamination to other animals attending the salon.

Where the Customer declines the recommended flea treatment and the associated additional charges for treatment, cleaning and sanitisation, Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the right to immediately discontinue the grooming appointment. The Customer shall be required to collect their dog without delay, and the full grooming fee, together with any reasonable charges incurred up to the point the appointment was discontinued, shall remain payable.

Customers who are aware that their dog has, or may have, fleas, ticks or another contagious parasite must ensure that appropriate treatment has been administered before attending any appointment.

Appointment Times

Appointment times are estimates only and are provided for scheduling purposes. Grooming duration may vary depending upon the individual requirements of each dog.

Factors that may extend the duration of an appointment include, but are not limited to:

• coat length and condition;
• matting or excessive undercoat;
• breed and size;
• temperament and behaviour;
• welfare or comfort breaks;
• drying requirements;
• additional handling; and
• unforeseen welfare concerns.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the right to extend, shorten or modify any appointment where reasonably necessary to protect the health, welfare or comfort of the dog.

Whilst every reasonable effort shall be made to complete appointments within the estimated timeframe, no guarantee is given regarding collection times.

Collection and Drop-Off Service

Where Boops & Kisses Pet Care provides a collection and drop-off service, the Customer shall ensure that the dog has been given an adequate opportunity to toilet prior to transportation.

Where a dog soils, vomits or otherwise contaminates the vehicle during transportation, Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the right to charge a vehicle cleaning fee of £5.00. Customers may provide puppy pads or other protective coverings for use during transport if they so wish.

Whilst every reasonable care shall be exercised during transportation, Boops & Kisses Pet Care shall not be liable for delays caused by traffic conditions, road closures, adverse weather, vehicle breakdown or other circumstances beyond its reasonable control.

Photographs, CCTV and Marketing

Boops & Kisses Pet Care may take photographs or video recordings of dogs before, during and after grooming for legitimate business purposes including, but not limited to:

• portfolio displays;
• social media;
• website content;
• promotional material;
• staff training;
• quality assurance; and
• business marketing.

Unless the Customer notifies Boops & Kisses Pet Care before the appointment that they do not consent to such use, the Customer grants Boops & Kisses Pet Care a perpetual, royalty-free licence to use images of the dog for the purposes set out above.

Personal information relating to the Customer shall be processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable data protection legislation.

Payment, Cancellations & No-Shows

Boops & Kisses Pet Care will issue payment requests on Sundays for appointments booked for the following week.

Existing customers may choose to pay for their sessions in advance or upon completion of the booked service.

New customers are required to pay for their session no later than 9:30 am on the day of their appointment. Payment must be received by this deadline to confirm your attendance. If payment is not received by the specified deadline, Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the right to cancel the appointment and offer the booking to another customer.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care also reserves the right to require full payment in advance for future bookings where a customer repeatedly cancels appointments, fails to attend scheduled appointments, makes late payments or otherwise breaches these Terms and Conditions.

Customers wishing to cancel or rearrange an appointment must provide at least forty-eight (48) hours’ notice before the scheduled appointment time.

Where at least 48 hours’ notice is provided, any payment made for the affected appointment will be refunded in full.

Where less than 48 hours’ notice is provided, the following cancellation charges will apply:

• Between 24 and less than 48 hours’ notice: 25% of the session fee.
• Less than 24 hours’ notice: 50% of the session fee.
• Cancellation without notice or failure to attend (no-show): 100% of the session fee.

Where payment has already been made, the applicable cancellation fee will be deducted from the amount paid, and any remaining balance will be refunded. Where the cancellation fee equals the full session fee, no refund will be due.

Where payment has not yet been made, the applicable cancellation fee will remain payable.

These charges are intended to compensate for the time reserved for the appointment and the difficulty of offering the booking slot to another customer at short notice.

Failure to attend a scheduled appointment without prior notice will be treated as a no-show.

In the event of a no-show, the full session fee will be payable. Any payment already made for the missed appointment will be retained and will not be refunded.

Following a no-show, customers may be required to complete the booking process again before another appointment can be accepted.

Customers are responsible for ensuring they understand the payment deadlines, cancellation notice requirements and applicable cancellation fees before confirming a booking.

All refunds and cancellation charges are subject to applicable consumer protection laws.

Rescheduling Limits

Each booking may be rescheduled a maximum of two times. After the second rescheduling attempt, we will require full payment at the time of booking.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the right to cancel or rearrange appointments due to staff illness, emergencies, adverse weather, equipment failure or circumstances beyond its reasonable control. In such circumstances, any payments paid shall be transferred to the next mutually convenient appointment or refunded at the Customer’s option where no suitable alternative can be agreed.

Payments and Additional Charges

Where reasonably practicable, Boops & Kisses Pet Care shall endeavour to notify the Customer of any significant additional charges before carrying out any additional work. However, where immediate action is necessary for the welfare of the dog or to safely complete the groom, Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the right to proceed without prior approval.

Customer Responsibilities

The Customer warrants that they are the legal owner of the dog or have full authority from the owner to instruct Boops & Kisses Pet Care to provide grooming services.

The Customer agrees to provide complete, accurate and up-to-date information regarding the dog’s health, behaviour and welfare before every appointment.

The Customer shall notify Boops & Kisses Pet Care without delay of any changes to the dog’s medical condition, medication or behaviour occurring between appointments.

Right to Refuse or Terminate Services

Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the absolute right to refuse, suspend or terminate any grooming service at any stage where, in its sole professional judgement:

• the dog’s welfare may be compromised;
• the dog presents a risk to itself or others;
• the Customer has provided false, misleading or incomplete information;
• payment obligations have not been met;
• the Customer behaves in an abusive, threatening or inappropriate manner; or
• continuation of the appointment would otherwise be unsafe or unreasonable.

Where a grooming appointment is terminated for any reason set out above, the Customer shall remain liable for all grooming services carried out prior to termination together with any reasonable charges incurred.

Limitation of Liability

Nothing in these Terms and Conditions shall exclude or limit liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation or any liability which cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under the laws of England and Wales.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care shall not be responsible for any pre-existing medical condition, skin disorder, illness, parasite infestation, coat damage, behavioural issue or underlying health condition that becomes apparent during or following the grooming process unless directly caused by our negligence.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Customer agrees to indemnify Boops & Kisses Pet Care against any claim, liability, loss, damage or expense arising from inaccurate information, undisclosed medical conditions or behavioural issues relating to their dog.

Relationship & Responsibilities

Boops & Kisses Pet Care operates as an independent business. The Walker provides dog walking services as an independent contractor and is responsible for their own insurance, tax and any other statutory obligations applicable to their business.

The Walker will provide the agreed services with care, kindness, professionalism and consideration for the welfare of the dog(s). The Owner agrees to provide all relevant and accurate information needed to allow the services to be carried out safely and appropriately.

The Walker will always aim to provide a reliable, compassionate and trustworthy service. The Owner should raise any concerns regarding the service as soon as reasonably possible, ideally within one hour of the Walker returning the dog(s).

In the event of an emergency, severe weather or circumstances outside the Walker’s reasonable control, the Walker may use their professional judgement to make reasonable decisions regarding the safety and welfare of the dog(s). The Walker will inform the Owner of any incident or concern that may affect the dog(s)’ health, safety or wellbeing.

The Walker will provide suitable waste bags and will dispose of dog waste responsibly in accordance with local requirements.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care generally limits dog walking to a maximum of two dogs from the same household at any one time, with walks primarily being provided on a solo basis.

The Owner must provide suitable and secure collars, harnesses and leads for the dog(s). Coats, muzzles or any other necessary equipment must also be provided by the Owner where appropriate.

The Owner is responsible for ensuring that all required vaccinations and preventative treatments for their dog(s) are kept up to date and that accurate information is provided to the Walker. Where vaccinations are required for a particular service or activity, the Owner must be able to provide appropriate evidence if requested.

The Walker is not required to carry out any duties or additional tasks that have not been agreed as part of the service. Any additional requests will be considered at the Walker’s discretion and subject to availability.

Where required to provide the service, the Owner gives the Walker permission to access their property. The Owner is responsible for providing safe and suitable access arrangements.

Both the Owner and Walker agree to provide at least one week’s notice where possible of planned holidays or periods when regular dog walking services will not be required.

If the Owner is away from the property, dog walking services will only continue with the Owner’s prior agreement and where suitable arrangements have been made to provide the Walker with access to the property and the dog(s).

Payment & Payment Terms

Payment for dog walking services may be made on the day of the walk, on the final walk of the week, or, where agreed in advance, at the end of the calendar month following the final walk.

Payment may be made by cash or bank transfer. When making a bank transfer, please use your name and the date of one of the walks as the payment reference.

All payments must be made within the agreed payment period. Any unpaid balances may affect future bookings or services.

Walking Schedule & Bookings

The Owner may request specific services, dates and times, but all bookings remain subject to the Walker’s availability.

Requests to change or add services may affect the agreed schedule and availability. Weather conditions, emergencies or circumstances outside the Walker’s reasonable control may also result in changes to the planned schedule.

Where possible, the Walker will confirm the upcoming week’s agreed services by the Sunday before the start of that week.

Any services agreed between the Owner and Walker will be confirmed by email, telephone or another agreed method of communication. A booking is considered confirmed once the arrangements have been agreed by both parties.

Cancellation & Termination

Either the Owner or Walker may end the dog walking arrangement by providing at least 24 hours’ notice before a scheduled visit.

The Owner may cancel a scheduled walk with at least 24 hours’ notice without being charged. Cancellations made with less than 24 hours’ notice may be charged in full or, at the Walker’s discretion, the visit may be rearranged.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the right to end the service immediately where there is serious or repeated misuse of the service, including excessive cancellations and rebooking, abusive or threatening behaviour, bullying, or inappropriate treatment of the Walker or business.

If the Walker is unable to attend a scheduled walk due to unforeseen circumstances, they may, with the Owner’s agreement, arrange for a suitable substitute Walker to provide the service. Any additional cost associated with arranging a substitute will be the responsibility of the Walker unless otherwise agreed.

The Walker reserves the right to immediately suspend or terminate services if a dog displays aggressive, dangerous or otherwise unsafe behaviour that presents a risk to the Walker, the public, other animals or the dog itself.

Providing inaccurate, incomplete or misleading information about a dog’s behaviour, health, medical needs, temperament or other relevant circumstances may result in the service being suspended or terminated immediately.

Where services are terminated due to unsafe behaviour, misleading information or serious misuse of the service, any outstanding fees already incurred remain payable.

Adverse Weather

The safety and welfare of the dog(s) and Walker will always take priority.

Dog walks may be shortened, modified, postponed or cancelled where weather conditions make walking unsafe or unsuitable. This may include extreme temperatures, strong winds, heavy rain, snow, ice, thunderstorms, lightning or other hazardous conditions.

As a general guide, walks will not normally take place when temperatures fall below 0°C or rise above 25°C. However, the Walker may use their reasonable judgement based on the actual conditions, including humidity, wind chill, direct sunlight, ground temperature and the individual needs of the dog(s).

Where a normal walk cannot safely take place due to weather conditions, the dog(s) may instead receive an appropriate outdoor toilet break at the Owner’s property followed by indoor companionship and interaction for the remainder of the booked period, where suitable.

Liability

The Walker will maintain appropriate public liability insurance in connection with the services provided.

The Walker will take reasonable care when accessing and leaving the Owner’s property. However, the Owner remains responsible for ensuring that the property is reasonably safe and suitable for access.

The Walker cannot accept responsibility for loss, damage or security issues arising from another person being given access to the Owner’s property, keys, access codes or other means of entry during the period of the booking.

The Owner remains responsible for veterinary costs, medical treatment and other reasonable expenses arising from illness, injury or incidents involving their dog(s), except where such costs arise directly from the Walker’s proven negligence or other legal liability.

The Walker does not normally provide transportation of dog(s) to veterinary practices, grooming appointments, kennels or other services. However, in an emergency, the Walker may make reasonable arrangements where they consider this necessary for the dog’s welfare.

Where the Owner specifically authorises their dog to be walked off lead, the Owner acknowledges the additional risks associated with off-lead walking and accepts responsibility for losses or damage caused by their dog, including injury to people or other animals, where legally applicable.

Dog walking and outdoor activities involve inherent risks. These may include, but are not limited to, interactions with other dogs or people, bites, altercations, escape, traffic, uneven or hazardous ground, extreme weather, plants, seeds, grass awns, insects, parasites and encounters with wildlife or other animals.

Dogs can behave unpredictably, even when they have previously demonstrated reliable behaviour or have received appropriate training. The Owner acknowledges these inherent risks and agrees to provide accurate information about their dog’s temperament, behaviour, health and any known triggers.

Nothing within these terms is intended to exclude or restrict any liability that cannot legally be excluded or restricted under applicable law.

The Owner acknowledges that they have read and understood these terms and the potential risks associated with dog walking and outdoor activities.

If a dog bites or injures a person, another animal or otherwise becomes involved in an incident that may require reporting, the Walker may be required to report the incident to the appropriate authorities and will provide relevant information where legally required.

Indemnity

Each party agrees to act responsibly and with reasonable care. Where legally applicable, each party may be responsible for losses, claims or costs arising directly from their own negligent, intentional or unlawful actions.

Emergencies

In the event of an emergency involving the dog(s), the Walker will attempt to contact the Owner using the emergency contact details provided.

Where the Owner cannot be contacted within a reasonable period and immediate action is considered necessary to protect the dog’s health or welfare, the Walker is authorised to use reasonable judgement and may:

• Contact the dog’s registered veterinary practice.
• Arrange for veterinary advice or treatment.
• Transport the dog to the nominated veterinary practice where reasonably necessary.
• Transport the dog to an emergency veterinary clinic if immediate treatment is required and the usual veterinary practice is unavailable.
• Take other reasonable steps considered necessary to protect the dog’s welfare.

The Owner remains responsible for veterinary treatment and associated costs, except where such costs arise directly from the Walker’s proven negligence or other legal liability.

Keys, Access & Security

The Walker will take reasonable care of any keys, access devices, entry codes and personal information provided for the purpose of carrying out the agreed services.

Keys and other access devices will be returned or securely stored in accordance with the arrangements agreed with the Owner. They will be returned to the Owner when the service ends or sooner if requested.

The Owner should notify Boops & Kisses Pet Care immediately if any access details, keys or security arrangements change.

Assignment

Neither the Owner nor the Walker may transfer their rights or responsibilities under these terms to another person without the prior agreement of the other party, unless otherwise required or permitted by law.

General Terms

These terms may be provided and accepted electronically, including by email or other digital communication. Electronic acceptance will be treated as confirmation that the Owner has received and agreed to the applicable terms.

Headings are included for ease of reading only and do not affect the interpretation of these terms.

Where the context allows, words referring to one gender include all genders, and words referring to the singular include the plural and vice versa.

If any provision of these terms is found to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue to apply to the fullest extent permitted by law.

These terms may be updated from time to time where reasonably necessary. Where an update materially affects an existing booking or ongoing service, the Owner will be informed of the relevant changes.

Introduction and Nature of Service

These Terms and Conditions apply to all Emmi® Pet Teeth Cleaning services provided by Boops & Kisses Pet Care (“the Service Provider”, “we”, “our” or “us”).

By booking, purchasing or attending an Emmi® Pet Teeth Cleaning appointment, the owner, keeper or authorised representative of the pet (“the Customer”) confirms that they have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions.

Emmi® Pet Teeth Cleaning is a cosmetic, non-invasive ultrasonic teeth cleaning service designed to assist with the removal and management of plaque and tartar build-up and to support improved oral hygiene.

The service is not a veterinary dental procedure and does not replace professional veterinary dental assessment, diagnosis or treatment.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care does not provide veterinary advice, diagnose dental conditions, prescribe treatment or carry out any procedure that requires veterinary qualification.

Where a pet displays signs of dental disease, infection, oral pain, loose teeth, excessive bleeding, severe tartar accumulation or any other condition requiring veterinary attention, the Customer will be advised to seek advice from a qualified veterinary professional.

Pet Health Requirements and Suitability

The Customer confirms that, to the best of their knowledge, their pet is fit, healthy and suitable to undergo Emmi® Pet Teeth Cleaning.

The Customer shall disclose any relevant medical, dental or behavioural information before treatment, including but not limited to:

• existing dental disease;
• oral infections;
• loose or damaged teeth;
• gum conditions;
• sensitivity or pain;
• recent veterinary treatment;
• medication; or
• behavioural concerns.

The Customer confirms that their pet does not have any known condition that may make the procedure unsuitable or unsafe.

The Customer must inform Boops & Kisses Pet Care of any known aggressive behaviour, handling difficulties or anxiety that may affect the safety of the procedure.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the right to refuse, postpone or discontinue the service at any time where:

• the pet becomes distressed or excessively anxious;
• the pet displays aggressive or unsafe behaviour;
• the pet appears unwell;
• the pet cannot safely tolerate the procedure; or
• dental concerns are identified which require veterinary attention.

No pet shall be forcibly restrained or subjected to unnecessary stress for the purpose of completing an Emmi® Pet Teeth Cleaning session.

Results and Treatment Expectations

The Customer acknowledges that results from Emmi® Pet Teeth Cleaning vary between individual animals.

The outcome achieved may depend upon factors including, but not limited to:

• the severity and duration of tartar accumulation;
• the condition of the pet’s teeth and gums;
• age;
• diet;
• breed;
• genetics; and
• ongoing home dental care.

Whilst the service may assist in reducing plaque, tartar build-up and improving breath freshness, Boops & Kisses Pet Care makes no guarantee regarding:

• the amount of tartar removed;
• the level of improvement achieved;
• whitening results; or
• the number of sessions required.

The Customer acknowledges that multiple sessions and ongoing maintenance appointments may be required to achieve and maintain the best possible results.

Customer Responsibilities

The Customer agrees to:

• provide accurate and complete information regarding their pet’s health, dental condition and behaviour;
• inform Boops & Kisses Pet Care of any changes affecting suitability for treatment;
• follow any reasonable aftercare or maintenance recommendations provided; and
• understand that ongoing dental maintenance is generally required to support long-term oral hygiene.

The Customer remains responsible for seeking veterinary advice where recommended.

Liability

Boops & Kisses Pet Care shall take all reasonable care to ensure the safety, comfort and welfare of every pet receiving Emmi® Pet Teeth Cleaning.

The Customer acknowledges that animals can behave unpredictably and may react differently to handling, equipment, sounds or procedures.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Boops & Kisses Pet Care shall not be liable for injury, stress, adverse reactions or complications arising from the pet’s behaviour, pre-existing conditions, undisclosed information or circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

Nothing within these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation or any liability which cannot lawfully be excluded under the laws of England and Wales.

Personal Toothbrush Head Policy

Where a Customer purchases an Emmi® Pet toothbrush head, payment must be made at the time of booking the initial appointment.

Each toothbrush head purchased shall be allocated exclusively to one individual pet and shall not be shared between animals.

The toothbrush head will be stored securely at the salon between appointments and thoroughly cleaned and disinfected after each use.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care maintains individual toothbrush head allocation procedures to prevent cross-use between pets.

Customers will be advised when their toothbrush head is no longer suitable for continued use and a replacement will be required.

Initial Emmi® Pet Teeth Cleaning Appointment

All dogs must attend an initial Emmi® Pet Teeth Cleaning appointment before any follow-up appointments can be booked.

The initial appointment fee is £45.00.

The initial appointment includes:

• an assessment of the dog’s teeth and gums;
• suitability assessment for the procedure; and
• provision of an individually assigned toothbrush head for the dog’s future use.

Follow-Up Appointment Options

Pay As You Go
Customers may choose to pay for individual follow-up sessions at a cost of £35.00 per appointment, subject to availability.

Six Session Block Booking
Customers may purchase a block of six follow-up sessions at the advertised discounted rate. The full cost of the six-session block must be paid before the first session can be booked or carried out.

Block Booking Terms

The six-session block is designed to support a regular dental care programme, with weekly appointments recommended wherever reasonably possible.

Customers should aim to attend appointments approximately once per week until all six sessions have been completed.

Following completion of the initial six-session course, customers may:

• continue with maintenance appointments;
• purchase a further six-session course; or
• move to a pay-as-you-go arrangement.

A further six-session course will remain available at the same rate where the existing toothbrush head remains suitable for continued use.

Where a replacement toothbrush head is required, the subsequent six-session course price will be £130.00.

Where customers choose pay-as-you-go appointments following completion of a course:

• sessions remain £35.00 where the existing toothbrush head remains suitable;
• the first appointment requiring a replacement toothbrush head will be charged at £45.00.

Appointment Scheduling and Attendance

Customers are responsible for booking appointments in advance and ensuring they attend scheduled sessions.

Whilst weekly attendance is recommended, Boops & Kisses Pet Care recognises that unforeseen circumstances may occur.

Customers should contact Boops & Kisses Pet Care as soon as possible if they are unable to attend a scheduled appointment.

Block Booking Expiry and Missed Appointments

All six sessions included within a block booking must be used within three (3) months from the date of purchase.

Any unused sessions remaining after this period shall automatically expire and shall not be refundable, transferable or exchangeable for cash or credit.

Where an appointment is missed or cancelled without sufficient notice, the scheduled session shall be deemed used.

No replacement session, refund or credit shall be provided for missed appointments.

Refund Policy

All payments for Emmi® Pet Teeth Cleaning services are non-refundable.

Block bookings, unused sessions and prepaid appointments cannot be exchanged for cash or transferred into credit.

Consent and Acceptance

By booking or attending an Emmi® Pet Teeth Cleaning appointment, the Customer confirms that they:

• have read and understood these Terms and Conditions;
• provide consent for Emmi® Pet Teeth Cleaning to be carried out on their pet;
• understand that the service is non-veterinary and cosmetic in nature; and
• accept responsibility for providing accurate information regarding their pet’s health and behaviour.

Food, Treats and Essential Supplies

The Client shall ensure that an adequate supply of food, treats, medication, cleaning products and any other essential items required for the care and wellbeing of their pet(s) is available for the duration of the booked Pet Drop-In Service.

The Client is responsible for providing sufficient instructions regarding feeding routines, portion sizes, treat allowances and any specific dietary requirements.

Where additional food, treats or essential supplies are required during the provision of the service, Boops & Kisses Pet Care reserves the right to purchase such items where reasonably necessary to protect the welfare of the pet(s).

The Client agrees to reimburse Boops & Kisses Pet Care for all reasonable expenses incurred in purchasing additional supplies. Evidence of expenditure, including receipts where available, will be provided upon request.

Veterinary Care and Emergencies

Boops & Kisses Pet Care will take all reasonable care to ensure the safety, welfare and comfort of all pet(s) receiving care.

In the event of illness, injury, accident, medical concern or emergency involving the pet(s), Boops & Kisses Pet Care will make reasonable efforts to contact the Client or the nominated emergency contact provided at the time of booking.

Where urgent action is required and the Client or emergency contact cannot be reached within a reasonable timeframe, the Client authorises Boops & Kisses Pet Care to make decisions considered necessary to protect the health and welfare of the pet(s).

This may include transporting the pet(s) to a veterinary surgeon, seeking veterinary advice or authorising emergency treatment where recommended by a qualified veterinary professional.

The Client expressly authorises Boops & Kisses Pet Care to transport their pet(s) to a veterinary practice where this is considered necessary.

The Client accepts full responsibility for all veterinary consultation fees, treatment costs, medication costs, transportation charges and any other expenses incurred in relation to veterinary care provided.

• history of aggression, biting or reactivity; and
• any other information that may affect the safe provision of the service.

The Client acknowledges that Boops & Kisses Pet Care relies upon the accuracy of the information provided when assessing suitability and preparing appropriate care arrangements.

Failure to disclose relevant information, or the provision of inaccurate or misleading information, shall constitute a breach of these Terms and Conditions.

The Client shall be responsible for any loss, damage, injury, additional expense or increased risk arising from information being withheld, inaccurate or incomplete.

• behavioural information;
• emergency contact details;

A booking shall only be confirmed once Boops & Kisses Pet Care has provided written confirmation of acceptance.

Service Availability and Cancellation by Boops & Kisses Pet Care

Boops & Kisses Pet Care will make every reasonable effort to fulfil confirmed bookings.

In the unlikely event that Boops & Kisses Pet Care is unable to provide a confirmed service due to circumstances beyond its reasonable control, the Client will be notified as soon as reasonably practicable.

Where Boops & Kisses Pet Care is unable to fulfil a confirmed booking, any deposit or payment made specifically for that booking shall be refunded in full.

Such refund shall represent the Client’s sole remedy and the full extent of Boops & Kisses Pet Care’s liability in relation to the cancelled booking.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care shall not be responsible for any indirect losses, inconvenience, alternative care arrangements, travel expenses or consequential costs arising from the cancellation of a service.

Policy Statement

Boops & Kisses Pet Care is committed to providing and maintaining, so far as is reasonably practicable, a safe and healthy working environment for all persons who may be affected by its business activities, including customers, visitors, contractors and animals entrusted to its care.

Boops & Kisses Pet Care shall comply with the requirements of the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 (as amended) (“COSHH Regulations”) and all other applicable health and safety legislation.

Appropriate measures shall be implemented to identify, assess, control and monitor risks arising from hazardous substances used in connection with the operation of the business.

Scope

This Policy applies to all activities undertaken by Boops & Kisses Pet Care within its home-based grooming salon and to all hazardous substances used in connection with the provision of its services.

As a sole trader, the proprietor is responsible for ensuring compliance with this Policy and all applicable legal obligations.

Responsibilities

Boops & Kisses Pet Care shall be responsible for:

• carrying out and reviewing COSHH risk assessments;
• identifying hazardous substances used within the business;
• implementing appropriate control measures to minimise risks;
• ensuring hazardous substances are used, handled and stored safely;
• complying with manufacturers’ instructions and Safety Data Sheets (SDS), where available;
• maintaining appropriate standards of cleanliness and hygiene throughout the salon; and
• reviewing this Policy on a regular basis.

Hazardous Substances

The business seeks, wherever reasonably practicable, to use products that present the lowest foreseeable risk whilst remaining suitable for their intended purpose.

Hazardous substances used within the salon may include, but are not limited to:

• dog shampoos and conditioners;
• grooming sprays and coat treatments;
• detangling products;
• disinfectants and sanitisers;
• cleaning chemicals;
• ear cleaning solutions;
• eye cleaning solutions; and
• any other products requiring assessment under the COSHH Regulations.

The use of vegan-friendly or low-toxicity products does not remove the requirement to assess and control any potential hazards associated with their use.

COSHH Risk Assessments

Suitable and sufficient COSHH risk assessments shall be completed for hazardous substances where required.

Risk assessments shall consider, where applicable:

• skin contact;
• eye contact;
• inhalation of vapours, aerosols or sprays;
• accidental ingestion;
• allergic reactions;
• environmental hazards; and
• any risks to animals, customers or visitors.

Safety Data Sheets (SDS), where supplied by the manufacturer, shall be obtained and retained where reasonably practicable.

Control Measures

Boops & Kisses Pet Care shall implement appropriate control measures to minimise exposure to hazardous substances.

Such measures may include:

• selecting products with the lowest reasonably practicable level of hazard;
• complying with manufacturers’ instructions;
• avoiding unnecessary mixing of chemicals;
• ensuring adequate ventilation within the grooming salon;
• maintaining appropriate standards of hygiene;
• washing hands following the handling of hazardous substances;
• cleaning work surfaces following use; and
• preventing unnecessary exposure of animals to cleaning products or chemicals.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Suitable Personal Protective Equipment (“PPE”) shall be worn where identified by the relevant risk assessment or manufacturer guidance.

PPE may include:

• disposable or reusable protective gloves;
• protective aprons or clothing; and
• any additional protective equipment considered necessary for the safe use of specific substances.

PPE shall be maintained in good condition and replaced where damaged, contaminated or no longer fit for purpose.

Storage of Hazardous Substances

Hazardous substances shall be stored securely to minimise the risk of accidental exposure, contamination or misuse.

Where reasonably practicable, substances shall:

• remain in their original containers;
• be clearly labelled;
• be stored in accordance with manufacturers’ recommendations;
• be kept in a cool, dry location; and
• be stored away from animals, food preparation areas and unauthorised access.

Emergency Procedures

Appropriate action shall be taken in the event of any accidental spill, leak or exposure involving a hazardous substance.

Emergency procedures may include:

• immediate containment and safe cleaning of spills;
• rinsing affected skin or eyes with clean water;
• following first aid instructions provided by the manufacturer;
• seeking medical advice where appropriate; and
• obtaining veterinary advice where an animal may have been exposed.

Where applicable, emergency procedures contained within the relevant Safety Data Sheet shall be followed.

First Aid

A suitably stocked first aid kit shall be maintained within the grooming salon.

Any accidents, incidents, adverse reactions or exposure to hazardous substances shall be recorded and reviewed to reduce the likelihood of recurrence.

Waste Disposal

Hazardous substances, empty containers and associated waste shall be disposed of responsibly and, where applicable, in accordance with manufacturers’ instructions and local authority waste disposal requirements.

No hazardous substance shall be disposed of through drains or watercourses unless such disposal is expressly permitted by the manufacturer and applicable environmental guidance.

Monitoring and Review

Compliance with this Policy shall be monitored on an ongoing basis.

COSHH risk assessments shall be reviewed:

• at least annually;
• following the introduction of any new hazardous substance;

• Safety Data Sheets;

• incident and accident records; and
• records of any reviews undertaken under this Policy.

Policy Review

This Policy shall be reviewed annually or sooner where there is any significant change in legislation, products used, working practices or other circumstances that may affect its effectiveness.
