Local pet groomer named best in Australia
LOCAL pet grooming service, Tablelands Mobile Pet Services, has been announced as one of the best pet grooming services in Australia after they won a prestigious Australian Small Business Champion Award.
Jason Drury has been the proud owner of Tablelands Mobile Pet Services since December 2019 and has spent the last few years travelling the region pampering pets of all shapes and sizes.
It was his passion and commitment to his craft, alongside a bit of liquid confidence, that pushed Jason to nominate for the awards however he never really expected to win.
It was a surreal feeling for Jason and his wife as they walked into Australia’s second largest casino and host of the awards, The Star in Sydney, and it was even more of a surreal feeling when Tablelands Mobile Pet Services was announced as the winner, beating out 11 other nominees.
Upon hearing the news, Jason’s first reaction was to “grab my wife and gave her a big kiss” – his number one supporter before taking the stage.
“Without my wife, I couldn’t run my business the way I do,” he said.
Jason said it was a feeling like no other as he walked on stage in front of thousands of people to accept the award.
“When they announced it, I felt a sense of relief but I also had a sense of achievement not only for my business but for our local area,” he said.
“I am over the moon that the judges down there thought my business was good enough to win this award.
“It is amazing to be able to bring this award back to the Tablelands.”
Jason would like to thank every one of his clients who have supported him over the years and encourages any businesses, big or small, to start putting their hands up for these types of awards as “you never know” if you will walk away a winner
