Meet John
Hi, I'm John, and I've been a passionate dog groomer for over three years. My love for dogs and my artistic background led me to combine my two passions into a fulfilling career in dog grooming. I take pride in providing top-quality grooming services, ensuring each dog looks and feels their best.
At home, I have two beautiful Pomeranian mixes named Eevee and Blondie who inspire me every day. When I'm not grooming, I enjoy traveling and hanging out with friends. One day, I hope to compete and showcase my grooming skills to the world. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend!

Meet Michelle
Dear humans:
Anything is paw-sible with a dog by your side. That's why I'm the ulti-mutt dog lover!
Hello, my name is Michelle. I grew up in rural Dulzura CA and my friends were rabbits chickens and dogs. As a teen, I volunteered at the USDA quarantine cleaning and caring for birds. Next, I assisted my local cat breeder. Lastly, as a senior in high school, I applied to every Petco and PetSmart in San Diego. I was hired in 2003 starting as a bather. A year later I attended grooming school in Escondido. I entered competitive grooming within my first year of graduating and won grooming a Lakeland Terrier as well as a Pomeranian. In 2007 I was promoted to Salon Manager. This position was grooming dogs full-time while training other bathers and groomers also. I maintained this position until 2022 after choosing to leave the corporation to be able to continuing my favorite career while raising my daughter too.
At home, I have a Terrier (Zippy) Pomeranian (Boba), and a juvenile (Zaydee). I enjoy volunteering as Secretary for PTO and parent representative on SSC at my daughter's school. I love the sun, being active and my favorite food is Medjool dates.
I'm so proud to say I have enthusiasm and over 2 decades of success behind my grooming practices. Thank you!

Grooming FAQs
Is grooming safe?
When done correctly and performed by professionals, grooming is not only safe, but it's important for your pet's health and well-being.
How often should I groom my dog?
It depends, based on the breed and coat type. The average is every 4-6 weeks but our professionals will help you determine the schedule that's best for your pet.
How often do nails need trimming?
For the health and comfort of your dog, we recommend trimming nails every 6 weeks.
Are vaccinations required?
Yes. In order to maintain a safe environment for all of our furry friends, all dogs must be current on their rabies, distemper and bordatella (kennel cough) vaccinations.
How old does my puppy need to be for her first grooming?
It is good to get your puppy familiar and comfortable with the grooming process as early as possible and after the first set of puppy shots, usually 12-16 weeks of age. This will help them learn that grooming is a safe and pleasant experience.
