Our pet-centered approach to grooming is focused around a fabulous experience that ends in an even more fabulous groom! We take the time before every appointment to discuss your preferences and pet’s needs so we can be sure to give them an amazing groom that you and they will love. Please allow for around 2-3 hours per pet appointment to allow us the time to take care of your pet with the kindness and gentle skill they deserve.
We try very hard to stick to three hours or less. With large or matted dogs, however, it may take a little longer to groom them safely and efficiently.
Each dog is kept in a safe and sanitized personal kennel according to the AKC Safe Salon standards when they are not being groomed. This is not only to maintain a sanitary salon space, but for their safety as well as the safety of any other dogs in the salon at the same time. We pride ourselves on maintaining a safe, sanitary and comfortable space for all dogs on and off the grooming table.
Each pet is pampered with individual attention. Unless a family has multiple pets that come in together, all dogs will be separated.

Heather is a seasoned grooming professional who started in 2012 as a bather in her aunt’s shop. Fear Free Certified, Heather prioritizes the well-being and comfort of her furry clients above all else. She believes in creating a stress-free environment to ensure a positive grooming experience for every pet.
While she may have reached many milestones in her career, Heather still harbors ambitions of becoming a master groomer, despite acknowledging the role her age plays in this pursuit.
Driven by circumstance, Heather found her calling in the grooming industry following her divorce. What started as a necessity soon blossomed into a fulfilling career as she honed her skills and transitioned from bather to groomer.
Among her favorite breeds to groom, Heather has a soft spot for Standard Poodles, as she has one of her own named Seamus, affectionately known as “the old man”. Alongside Seamus, Heather shares her home with Finn, a spirited Woodle who found his forever home after a chance encounter at the grooming shop, and Bo, a feline friend with a disdain for Heather’s affection. The dogs and her enjoy hiking together.
In another life, Heather might have pursued her childhood dream of becoming a travel agent and traveling the world. If not grooming, she envisions herself as a dedicated stay-at-home mom or working in some capacity with animals.
Passionate about her craft, Heather thrives on the challenge of grooming difficult dogs, embracing the opportunity to help them overcome their fears and anxieties. She understands the anxiety some dogs may experience during grooming and emphasizes the importance of establishing trust and forming bonds through regular grooming sessions. She strongly desires that every pup feels cherished and cared for when they visit the salon.

Cambree embarked on her grooming journey in 2023. She continues to propel her career forward, driven by an eagerness for knowledge and her deep love for animals. She approaches her craft with enthusiasm and grabs every opportunity to expand her skill and expertise.
Her passion for animals traces back to her childhood dream of becoming a veterinarian. This dream pushed her to work in a shelter, where she witnessed firsthand the consequences of a dog not being properly groomed. Their stories fueled her passion and she became determined to make a difference.
In her grooming practice, Cambree doesn’t have a favorite when it comes to breeds. Instead, she embraces each furry client with open arms, eager to learn from their unique characteristics and grooming needs.
At home, Cambree shares her life with Maple, an Australian shepherd whose boundless energy and curiosity drive them to explore new places for walks.
If grooming weren’t her path, Cambree envisions herself owning her own cozy bookstore or at least working at one. Reading is one of her favorite hobbies and her preferred way of destressing.
For Cambree, grooming isn’t just a job – it’s a calling. She wants her customers to know that her passion for pet styling shows in every aspect of her work. Despite the physical and emotional toll that pet grooming can have on a groomer, she finds immense fulfillment in the opportunity to nurture and learn alongside the dogs she cares for.
