I have never known life without an amazing pet in it, and I would never want to. My life has always been about animals. I really began studying dogs when I was twelve years old, but I love cats just as much. The plan was always to have a job in the animal field and through crazy circumstances dog grooming fell into my lap and I am now coming up on five years of owning my own shop with my spouse Tristan.

We have four and a half dogs:
Bridgette: Dalmatian (Shelter), 11 yrs old, Psychological Therapy Dog
Caleb: German Shepherd, 11 yrs old, retired conformation and obedience dog
Tavis: American Foxhound, 8 yrs old, working on his AKC Championship
Otis: Shih Tzu, 7 yrs old, shared custody between us and my parents, He is our shop dog and greets all the furry clients
Milla: Dalmatian, 2 yrs old, Show Dog, Too smart for her own good

Gypsy Rose Lee: Manx sable tabby, The rabbit cat, The old soul, Came into our house on her own off the street and never left
