Nissa Kyte on Growth, Grooming Competitions and Cat Pricing

In this episode of the Pet Groomers Community Podcast, Jo and Lexi are joined by Nissa Kyte, owner of Cloud K9 Professional Grooming in Leicestershire.

Nissa shares how she moved from primary school teaching into dog grooming after realising she needed a career change, and how that decision led her into building a successful grooming business, competing, cat grooming, seminars, model dogs and award nominations.

They chat about the importance of continuous learning, why competitions can be such a brilliant way to improve, and how feedback from judges can help groomers build confidence and refine their skills. Nissa also talks honestly about the work she has put into improving her scissoring, her love of poodles, Asian-style grooms, creative model dogs, and why prep work is such a big focus for her.

There is also a great discussion around pricing, including cat grooming prices, charging properly for lion trims, adding teeth cleaning into dog grooms, and why being stricter with clients can help create a stronger, more sustainable business.

A fun, inspiring and very honest episode for groomers who want to keep learning, push themselves creatively, charge their worth, or simply hear from someone who has achieved a huge amount in a short space of time.
