MOBILE DAY TODAY AUG 11 😁
Xanny here to keep you updated for our mobile day!!

Our next dates are…
September 15th
October 13th
November 17th
December 15th
Remember with all our VFT treats sold were a step closer to a mobile van for full grooms!🧡
Hello friends!
We will be at the Pembroke farmers market tonight from 5-9 rain ☔️ or shine ☀️
Halloween is August to November for me! (and then lowkey still Halloween for the rest of the year)
As I originally wanted to have a fully loaded pet skin and coat market…. My orders did not come in with time for me to get everything ready and my shampoo is on back order 🥲. So I’m going full force Halloween VFT!
HALLOWEEN TREATS FUR DOGS!!! (kitties are coming but I was making treats for the doggie paddle as well!)
Pumpkins have quail eggs as a protein which can be a great alternative snack for the allergic to life pups! We all know or have one 🤣 (all the love to the bully and doodle owners that deal with this and all the other pet parents with itchy kids!🧡) AND speaking of itchy kids….apple cider vinegar sneaking its way in!
Ghouls are tasty bacon and chicken to hid the fibre packed veggies, hiding those veggies from the picky kids… I’ve had huskies eat these!!!🥦
Bats are protein PACKED with eggs, beef and beans! ITS BULKING SEASON💪(not the best choice for those with kidney issues)
Witches hats are low protein using just Greek yogurt as our protein source and filled with berries (great for our friends on hydrolyzed protein diets)🫐🍓PROBIOTIC SNACKY
All made with love by a certified veterinary assistant, specializing in skin and coat, a certification in nutrition…..and a huge passion for pets!☠️🎃👻😈👹🖤🧡HAPPY HALLOWEEN! All will also be available at the shop!
EDIT:HOME
Hello again friends!
Here is a pup one of our clients found wandering
We’ve cut her nails and she has a treat but wondering if she has a home. Again no identification
Chocolate lab
Female
Very friendly
Loved getting her nails cut even though they were curly!! An absolute sweetheart
The client that has her doesn’t have Facebook so I am posting for him and can reach him when we find her people!
Since Covid has these clinics a little messed up and having to catch up with doing lots and lots of kitties, they are now doing dogs again!
How awesome would it be if we managed to get the van to deep river for some more pets??!!
I’ve sponsored a day before, $2500 covers the van for one day and then you just pay for the equipment and products used! I WILL ABSOLUTELY DO IT AGAIN!!!!
In June when I was helping 2 years ago one of our clients got her cat spayed, microchipped, rabies vaccine, and all the core vaccines for $146.
Remember animals are a privilege and it’s our responsibility as the owners to give them the best life possible as they are only here for a fraction of our lives!🧡
Petawawa MASH Registration – sponsored by Petawawa Toyota! Thank you for contacting the Ontario SPCA and Humane Society about our SPCA Veterinary Outreach Services, which will be performing spay/neuter surgeries on Wednesday, August 21st – Friday, August 23rd at the Royal Canadian Legion Branch ...
Hello friends!
I meant to get this up yesterday but here is the august calendar!
Some super exciting things happening this month…
💚august 9th I’ll be at the farmers market in Pembroke for the night market. For this market I’m doing a skin and coat theme!
All things pet health grooming… itchy dogs no more!
🚙mobile day on the 11th the cut off will be the 10th at noon to sign up!
🧡discount bath day on the 12th make sure to snag a spot for your pups monthly bath and nails!
🎉then I’m off for a few days spending my birthday with my furry family!
🎃the 23rd I’m at the Halloween night market (in Pembroke again) y’all know I have to be there!!! Come trick or treat with your pets!
💜pop up nail trim on the 25th!
🌻and off again for some camping and outdoor fun to soak up the last bit of summer before coming back to Saturdays in September!
Nails can be trimmed by appointment or no appointment needed when I (Heidi) I am in the shop, at the pop up in pet, at the markets in Pembroke, mobile, or even in your car!!! No more painful long nails!❤️🩹
Hey friends!
💜I have been so so busy and thank you for all your patience!
I went away for the weekend to celebrate a dear friends bachelorette party! In the last month my phone stopped working, the square stand broke and almost took the iPad with it(new stand now!), and my computer I bought in November is at the vet after it drank my morning coffee.🥲
🧡I will be answering everyone tomorrow to get us started for a great august! I am taking some time off for august so there is limited in shop time and we are booking into the end of September for preferred timing and dates but last squeezes are coming soon!

Hey Y’all!
The time has come.. price changes!
I have officially been grooming with my own biz for 5 whole years!!!
When I came to deep river in 2022 was the first time I changed my prices, which was also when I started charging tax…. Yes I foot the bill for a year of not charging anyone tax. And now as I turn 25 in august I am charging my worth! If this is no longer feasible for you please let me know as I will have a program for people wanting to keep their pets maintained but need a little help. Otherwise I have no hard feeling in clients seeking a better option for themselves. At the end of the day I am friends with lots of groomers in the valley, I can recommend someone else or send a new groomer my notes on your pets. The only thing I care about is animals being taken care of. In order to do all the extras in free grooms for rescues or my free weekly gifts to random customers I have to match my prices to inflation!
With that being said I want to be able to expand my reaches for the community so I am still actively looking for a mobile grooming van to service the whole valley with all my equipment! I will have a few gift baskets to raffle to raise money for the van as well as any treat sales (besides tax or the machine charges) also going to this dream! I hope to be offering full grooms on the road in the new year!
UPDATE: Below are the weights for the different sizes of dogs 🐶
Extra small = 15lb and under
Small = 16-35lb
Medium = 36-60lb
Large = 61-90lb
Extra-Large = 91-120lb
Giant = 120lb+
If anyone is interested in learning about this trip there’s a presentation in deep river tonight! But no worries if you aren’t in our neck of the woods, it will be available online as well!

Hey friends,
All set up at the Petawawa civic centre, fun time for this rainy day! 10-2
I’ll have everything available at the shop this week as well!🐩🐕🐈⬛🐈
Hey Y'all, happy heatwave!
you may have notice I didn't post last squeezes for may or the start of June appointments... long story short there weren't any!
This time of year is insane for grooming! taking off all the winter coats/ swimming hot spots and matts/once a year groom messes, and of course our lovely regulars.
I've opened as much as I can so here's the last bit of June from myself (Heidi) and Cheryls post will follow!
please note: I'm not shaving your double coated dog because he's hot. It is hot out, we are all hot. it's not because of his protective coat and a gentle reminder weight is a factor!
More education to follow later, but as always ask me any questions you have and maybe we can work out the best outcome for your pup!
Here's the just of the dreaded shedding shave:
-it is ugly as hell
-sunburn
-heatstroke
-more shedding
-breakage
-damaged hair that comes back like straw, breaks off when you touch it, and matts easier
-have you ever seen shaved brain from family guy..... lets not
-spots of alopecia or no regrowth
-over production of oil (greasy dogs and the white flakes of grease that you think are dandruff from dry skin)
-I am happy to refer you to another groomer but the *educated groomers that care about your dog and not money would rather see you go to another groomer than feel the guilt of ruining the coat.
I will be at the petawawa civic centre from 10-2 for the hello summer vendors market, and I will run outside to cut nails if they need to be cut... if your pets need anything let me know!
As always tell your pets I love them and get there nails cut!
Xanny and her new Snuffle Max toy are here to tell you ITS MOBILE DAY!!🚖
Follow along here as we start in Mackey and make our way through the valley. 💜
We have 34 stops today and 56 pets to service!
Please be patient and we can’t wait to see all our furry friends!🐁🐕🦺🐕🐇🦜
Good morning everyone!!🍓
We had a great time at PemBARK this weekend and we have some "barks and bites" left over, selling at the shop for $5.
This is a little healthy trail mix for pups that tricks them into loving veggies! we also have whole chicken hearts in there and some yogurt drops because we all know the little chocolate chips or m&ms are the best part for us!
Sorry for the later calendar update, We are gearing up for lots of new and exciting things at VFT!
🛁 Another discount bath day next week! We had so much fun at the last one, can't wait to have another!!
🚗 Mobile is happening the 8th this month then we are back to our regularly scheduled dates!!
💅 Pop up at pet value in Petawawa again, last Sunday of the month!
💆♀️ I'll be having into to massage sessions on the 26th. Send a message to secure your spot!
🪒 Shave day will be happening on the 24th, this is people just wanting their pups shaved down for the summer, if there isn't enough interest in this day then we will just fit the appointments into other regular days. This would be another discount day!
🌞 Very excited to be at the hello summer vendors market! It's 10-2 at the Petawawa civic centre (no nail clipping at this one), selling products I trust and use daily, some things I make and use daily, information always, some snacks for the fur babies, and some other fun things!
Hey friends!!
Today and tomorrow the (1st and 2nd) cutting any nails possible!!! I have my whole set up, if your dog is difficult or aggressive no issues here please bring them out and let me help!!
Riverside park in pembroke!
We also have some puppy trail mix $5
Paw and snout oil $15
Davis medicated ear cleaner $5
Nail trimming $15
I also have more tools for other small services
Hey friends!
Here all the last appointments for private sessions in May!
Sheila and I are both here working on the pets so there's no limitations!
-Faster timings for those who can't stand for long
-Quiet space for those who don't enjoy the company of other furry friends
-You can stay with the pet in the salon area "behind the desk"
Let's talk bath days!!
This is minimal grooming day so we can get everyone in for baths and I can enjoy the pet skin care more as that's my favourite! 🛁
You will notice I have different prices for this day... I have attached a sample of a bath day form where you can request other services to add and what's all included, but these are discounted days! Still using our high end products at a very small cost for healthy coat and skin! 💚
This would be ideal days for those with skin issues for me to look at as well as..
-washing and brushing out doodles between grooms
-getting in those dogs that "don't need" groom and yet are itchy, have dander/grease, or you just want to stop getting that film on your hands from petting your dog!!
-blowing out and controlling shed
-checking all over for fleas or ticks
Just a reminder that your pets skin cycle is 21 days, our skin cycle is 28 days. If you get itchy after not showering for a month imagine how your dog feels with a full coat! 🧡 If you have any questions at all please send me a message!
And here we have the rest of Cheryl's appointments for the month!
Please note before I even get a chance to post these, some of the appointments have already been snatched up! 💚
Hey everyone,
Here are the rest of the dog grooming appointments for May with Heidi!
I have my sister (Hazel) here to help me with reception so we can get all these doggies booked in! 💜
I hope everyone enjoys this beautiful day!
Good afternoon everyone!
Just wanted get the May calendar out quick so you can see all the fun stuff I have planned!! 😆
💚 SHAVE DAY: This is a day for people who don't want anything fancy they just want a good one size cut! This can be bald or fluffy, or a simple shave no bath yet as some of our older friends can only handle one thing at a time!
With that being said I know there's also people that think grooming is a scam and just want their dog naked for the summer because it's easy and nothing else is "Needed". I have seen too many dogs injured by their owners trying this super easy job... please just let me help. THIS WILL BE A DISCOUNTED DAY!!!
💜 BATH DAY: This is a day for just bath, blow outs, brushing and nails. This is to keep up with pets that either want a bath between grooms, short haired pets (that we think don't need grooming), anyone needing a bath, or animals with owners that hate pet hair but have pets hehe! This will also be A DISCOUNTED DAY!!!
Grooming and proper baths are very important to your pets health, whether you believe me or not I want to make sure everyone can have access to some pet care! ❤️
🧡 MASSAGE: As I finish up my case studies I'll be fully certified come May!!! With just starting off I have 14 half hour spots. These will be priced $40 for 30 minutes (for now as I'm feeling it out!) This is massage intro and will include a full body assessment (by a veterinary assistant), full range of motion testing, 20 minutes of a full body massage, and a write up of findings/ recommendations.
🖤 PRIVATE SESSIONS: Just one on one grooming for pets with Heidi. This can be pups that don't like to be around other pups or just need some one on one grooming training!! This will also be sheila and I working to make sure we can accommodate for the big guys as well!!
Pop up at pet value in Petawawa! And because of our April mobile day being postponed I'm not sure if it will fit into this month but I will try my best!!
Happy Sunday Everyone!
Today is our mobile day. Follow this post's updates to see where we are and what we have done so far. As always this mobile day is our one day a month where we bring small services, such as nail trims and ear cleaning to you at home. We will be covering an area of Mackey to Haley Station so your patience is appreciated!
Please enjoy this picture of Sadie(standard poodle) and Cody(Maltese) on a road trip for VFT 😆 (People think I am very young, but give me any piece of technology and I need some grandkids to tell me how to work my iPhone)
Heading to Mackey as we speak/type!!
Hey friends,
🧡 Heidi update
I (Heidi) am back! I was pretty much bedridden for a week, then we tried a week of going slow and trying to not add appointments just to see where my limits were... and now I'm felling great!! Still trying not to lift the pups just yet but our little team made it through and were ready to get back to seeing all our furry friends again!!
💜 Mobile update
April has been a $h!t show! But let's just keep moving forward! With that being said, Evan and I will be on route tomorrow. I know this is last minute but we were really trying to play it by ear for what I would be able to do. Now feeling great, I feel ready to visit some friends! I'll be sending out a little reminder today, but because it's been so crazy feel free to spam me either pop a comment here, email, text, insta or Facebook dm! We will be making our route tonight to start bright an early so I will put a CUT OFF TIME OF 7AM SUNDAY APRIL 21ST!
💚 Shop update
With our hours changing for summer, I'm doing a slow transition in the month of May! I have made our may calendar and you will see some fun new days, like bath day, shave day, and private sessions! Stay tuned for everything explained, but in the meantime here are the last appointments for April!
Hi Friends!😃
I'm overwhelmed with the love from all of you! 💕 (and with the amount of other menstruating humans going through the same BS 🤬)
As I said I'm opening up this Sunday for grooming. As of now I'll still be doing mobile just on the 21st, and the pop up at pet value on the 28th! Here's the last appointments available this Sunday...4 have already been snatched up before I even got a chance to make a post!
Thank You as always for being the best clients around! 💜
