2015 was the year I got a little braver. I packed my bags—and of course, my dog (a beautiful Shih Tzu–Chihuahua cross called Kira)—and moved to the UK all the way from Mexico.
That’s how my journey as a dog groomer began, even before I realised it. For months, I searched for a dog groomer in my area to pamper Kira, but I didn’t have much luck. In the meantime, she started looking like a little Yeti! Like any dog owner, I was looking for someone kind, patient, and knowledgeable—so I decided to grab some clippers and give it a go. What could possibly go wrong? … Well, bless her, during this time I most definitely gave her some unique haircuts.
Fast forward to 2021—life had changed around the world, and after working in retail for a few years I knew it was time to take a leap and follow my dreams. That same year, I earned two qualifications as a International professional dog groomer and opened Bark & Co.
Today, I couldn’t be happier to welcome you and your pooches and to feel that every day, I make a difference to the well-being of our beloved furry family members.
Thank you for supporting my journey and giving me the chance to do what I love every single day.
