About
I do personal in home pet grooming, dogs or cats. When at my home I do not kennel. Your pet will be worked on from start to finish. Also they are the only client at the time so they won't ever be in contact with other animals. My prices tend to be lower than your typical big box store. I have been actively grooming for about 20 years, so you're guaranteed a quality job done and great care taken with your animals. They will be treated gently with kindness and patience. Appointment times are available any day of the week, most times of the day. Last minute and same day appts usually available. Thank you kindly for your consideration and have a Blessed day!
The drastic change from before and after, and the fact that I did it. It's busy work thats hands on and creative. Every work day is different and fun.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Introduce myself to the owner then ask questions about their pet. I ask their name, age, weight, hair type, and behavior. Write down their info in the appointment book. Talk about the kind of cut they want. Talk about price and how long the pet will take for a full groom and all the work entails. Also discuss any special needs your pet may have.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I was apprenticed by two women who are master groomers. I've had keys to a few shops, have done closing and opening of. Was taught all about customer service and how to deal with people and do good business. I was the grooming department at Petland and was in charge of everything, including making out orders. I also work full time at a traditional grooming shop. I can be reasonable with my prices for people and help them if need be.
