June is here, which means more sunshine, more adventures, and more muddy paws.

Whether your pup is heading to the beach, the park, or just lounging in the yard, a fresh groom can help keep them comfortable all summer long.

Ready for your dog’s summer refresh?

Long weekend = 10/10 fun
Also… 10/10 messy

If I could, I’d book my own groom right now 💻🐾

Since I can’t… my human has to do it

Dakota is slowly opening up her schedule again (on light duty), so don’t wait too long

Myth: Shaving your dog keeps them cooler in the summer
Fact: A dog’s coat actually helps regulate their temperature and protect their skin

For many breeds, shaving can do more harm than good—especially heading into warmer months

Every dog is different, which is why grooming should always be tailored to them

Spring = shedding season

One simple thing you can do at home:
👉 Use a damp washcloth or grooming glove to gently wipe your dog’s coat

It helps grab loose fur without a full brushing session and can make a big difference in how much hair ends up around your home

A little maintenance goes a long way

Mother’s Day looks a little different this year…

From being “just” a dog mom to The Jimmer… to now also being a mom to a sweet little human.

But one thing hasn’t changed—my heart has always been about caring for others, whether they have two legs or four.

To all the moms (dog moms included), Happy Mother’s Day 💛

Hi everyone! It's come to my attention that I have not been receiving texts via my booking system. I am also having some technical difficulties on my end with it as well that I'm working on getting resolved.

So if you've been trying to reach out, please try again or give me a call. Or message me on here.

I am getting some texts so if you are hearing from me (not my automated texts), we're all set!

Thanks everyone & I'm so sorry for the difficulties!

Spring is in full swing, and that means mud, shedding, and all the things that come with it.

If your dog is due for a groom, now’s a great time to reach out and get on the schedule.
