Hi, I’m Kelly! My passion for animals began at a very young age. I enjoyed the fascination of nature and how animals were emotionally connected to us as companions. I aspired to become a veterinarian, but my passions gravitated more towards the importance and care of a pets’ skin and coat needs; so I became a professional pet groomer!
Just like almost every aspiring groomer, I started out as a bather, working my way to the stylist status. From thereon, I have been professionally grooming dogs (and cats) since Fall of 2006. The skills of the trade were not the easiest, but I have always welcomed the challenge, as it pushes me to do greater and learn from it. Any chance that I get, I attend classes and seminars to further my skills and bring it to the grooming table.
My grooms are of exceptional quality that excels with basic and purebred cuts and styles to suit every breed; from shaves to scissoring, and even blending techniques. I am experienced with handling various breeds, sizes, ages, coats, medical conditions, and temperaments. I seem to have a particular niche for grooming Doodle breeds, as they are probably the most common, and popular, pet that I regularly groom. Many wonderful clients have been so ecstatic by my work, that they have recommended me to many other Doodle owners. So, in a world full of Doodles, I’m their groomer!
