Hi everyone! This is Rory, one of the groomers at Above & Beyond Pet Spa ๐
I wanted to make a quick post because I know thereโs been some confusion after the last announcement ๐
I am still grooming at the salon! Beginning next week, Iโll officially be transitioning into independently managing my own appointments and services while continuing to work out of the salon space.
What this means:
๐พ Iโll still be seeing many of my existing clients
๐พ Scheduling with me will now be done through messaging the salon page directly
๐พ My regular availability will primarily be Wednesday afternoons/evenings
๐พ Occasional additional availability may be announced separately
๐พ Grooming will continue to focus on individualized, low-stress handling and care
I also want to clarify how pricing will work moving forward:
๐ Existing appointments already scheduled with me will continue under the salonโs current pricing structure.
๐ New appointments scheduled moving forward will follow my independent pricing structure, which is based more directly on the individual time, labor, coat condition, behavior, and grooming needs involved in each appointment rather than flat breed/coat tier pricing.
Routine maintenance appointments will generally remain more straightforward than extensive deshedding work, full reset grooms, coat-sparing dematting requests, or complex hand-scissoring appointments.
Iโm happy to provide estimates at booking upon request, though final pricing may still vary depending on coat condition, behavior, and labor requirements fully assessed during grooming.
I will be able to accept most forms of payment with a card reader. I may not always have change available for cash transactions. I additionally use PayPal and Cashapp.
Iโm incredibly grateful for everyone who has trusted me with their pets so far!
