Hi everyone! I wanted to let you know that I'll be taking a break from grooming for a while due to some health reasons. This wasn't an easy decision, but I need to take the time to focus on my health and recovery.

I truly appreciate your trust, support, and loyalty over the years. It's been a pleasure caring for your pets, and I'm so grateful for each of you.

With the summer heat, I also wanted to share a few reminders to help keep your pets safe:
• Make sure they always have access to fresh, cool water.
• Walk them during the early morning or later in the evening when it's cooler.
• Check the pavement with your hand before walks—if it's too hot for your hand, it's too hot for their paws.
• Never leave pets in a parked car, even for a few minutes.
• Keep an eye out for signs of overheating, such as excessive panting, drooling, weakness, or vomiting, and contact your veterinarian right away if you're concerned.

At this time, I'm not sure when I'll be returning, but I'll be sure to keep everyone updated if and when I'm able to resume grooming. Thank you so much for your understanding, kindness, and support. Wishing you and your furry family members a safe, happy summer!

Handsome little Max came in for a Lion cut. Hes seriously so cute, and nervous. He does not like his feet touched especially the back paws or his kiwis. 🤣 ( for the sani) who can blame him.

Some recent grooms, we got Teddy, Stormi, and Otis. 🥰 this little group here ..... amazing pups.
Normally tiny dogs are a bit harder for me to groom, personally, but these guys work with me so well. They also give kisses 😘🐾🎖🧽🫧🧼

As a groomer, some days go smoothly, while others can be a little more challenging. My top priorities are always your pet's safety and comfort.

Just like people, dogs can have off days, even if I've successfully groomed them before. They may become anxious, start drooling excessively, whip their heads around, or attempt to jump from the tub or grooming table. If this happens, I will stop the grooming process and focus on helping your dog feel calm and comfortable.

If I'm unable to safely complete the groom, I will adjust the price accordingly or, in some cases, provide the service free of charge. Your pet's well-being will always come before completing a groom.

I'm a day late but....HAPPY BIRTHDAY PEANUT !!! 😍🤩🥳🎂
Peanut is a wonderful 8yrs old, he loves picking on his big baby brother, treats, and making couch indentations. He adores his mom, his furry friends🧡 and running like a rabid boy in the grass.
He's the best thicken nugget ever.

Stormy is sooo stinkin adorable 😍 but dang are her nails hard to get. 😮‍💨🫠
Im looking into getting a scratch pad for the wall / door (where they all look for their parents at) or possibly one that is removable for the table 🧐🤨.
These teeny tiny dogs can be so tricky.
