š One Year of SoPo Paws! š
Iām beyond grateful to be celebrating our first anniversary. This year has had its ups and downs, but one thing has stayed true: our incredible team and the wonderful clients who make it all possible.
Thank you to everyone who has trusted us with their pets, referred a friend, written a Google review, shared your stories, or booked with us time and again. Your support means the world.
When we opened, I imagined it would just be me, my daughter, and a single bather. Today, weāre thriving with 5 talented groomers, 3 dedicated bathers, and a groomer/bather flex positionāall here to give your pets the care they deserve.
Our team is constantly learning and growing. We listen to a grooming podcast every week, are heading to the New England Grooming Show, and three of our groomers are Fear Free Certified. We have one dedicated cat groomer and one certified rabbit and guinea pig groomer. Every member of the team is pursuing further education, refining their skills, and adapting techniques to make each pet as comfortable as possible.
š The biggest thanks this year goes to my family. I work endlessly at home and at the shop, and their support keeps me going.
⢠My husband is always thereāsupporting, helping, and keeping our family running.
⢠My daughter works part-time at the shop, does her schooling there, and jumps in whenever we need a hand setting up.
⢠My son uses his carpentry talents to bring my ācrazyā ideas to life whenever something needs fixing or updating.
I am so honored to be a part of this amazing community and I look forward to many more stories of growthāfrom our pets, our staff, and the families we serve. We hope to continue being a positive change in grooming for your four-legged family members.
Hereās to many more years of wagging tails, happy hearts, and the love that makes it all possible. šš¾
