About
When it comes to my grooming the part that makes me excited and satisfied to do my job is the smiles from the owner's and the kisses from the text pets. Knowing that even though it's temporary I could brighten someone's day.
What I enjoy most about the job I do is that I can provide customers with extensive knowledge on how to take care of their pets coat. I love working with patterns making beautiful artwork out of a dog's coat.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I will speak with you via text or call about you dogs information. If you choose to book with me I will have you text upon your arrival and I will greet you and your fur baby outside.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have 6 years experience in grooming. I have trained under multiple professional groomers and graduated from Animal Behavioral College with my certification in grooming. I also carry a 2-year associate in veterinary assistance and a four-year bachelor and veterinary technology.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your services? If so, please share the details here.
All my pricing is on an estimated scale so there will be no surprises when you show up to pick up your baby.
How did you get started in this business?
I started grooming when I worked in an animal hospital as a Kennel technician but I absolutely fell in love with the aspects of grooming and the smiles I received from happy clients and of course all the kisses from the furry ones.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I have extensive knowledge and experience handling animals with high anxiety behaviors, disabilities, and Senior pets.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I recently groomed a Yorkshire terrier who had severe anxiety issues. I introduced myself to the pet very slowly and cautiously. The owner explained to me that he has bit every single groomer that he has gone to which deemed him ungroomable. After a couple of sessions with me he no longer has the anxiety of being groomed and absolutely loves coming to see me.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
My best advice when hiring a groomer is to look at their experience and their knowledge on how to deal with different coat textures. If a groomer tells you that they can shave a golden retriever extremely short then that groomer is not the groomer for you.
What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
The questions that should be asked when hiring a groomer is, what is your experience? Do you have references? Can you show me some of your work? And overall questions that pertain to how an animal is groomed.
