Wonderful and exciting news!

We have our PERMANENT STATIONARY LOCATION! Wooop wooooop!

Many of you have been to our shop space we rent near Chena lakes and the owner has graciously offered us to convert the wood shop into a grooming salon!

We begin the conversion late April-May, so pardon our dust! It will be a work in process as we are still getting caught up financially but we are so excited to be able to finally offer committed and consistent appointments!

Scheduling is also as easy as a text or phone call at your convenience! Without worrying about routing we have much much more flexibility.

We operate Tuesday-Saturday from 9-4pm for PRIVATE one on one appointments and are available to offer pick up and delivery within North Pole with prior reservation for a rate of $15 each way.

Since we have lower overhead now, our pricing is a bit also lower!

We also have time to accept NEW CLIENTS now that we don’t have so much drive time factored in!

Thank you so much everyone for sticking around through the messiness, we are so excited to have stability and a safe place to work and care for all pets.

I strongly encourage rebooking your next appt at pickup; but if you’d prefer to just text when ready that’s fine too!

We currently have ASAP availability for the time being but as word gets out, summer is filling up quickly!

Soon we will also have online booking capability for your convenience ❤️

We accept cash, personal Venmo, or credit card payment through our secure processing system, Square 🎉🤑

Here are some cuties from this week and pics of the space we will be converting.

Thank you so much as always for your loyalty, patience, and patronage 🥰❤️

Well everyone, it is official. We are no longer going to be operating as a mobile grooming salon.

We are temporarily working out of a friend’s secure shop space while we wait to get into a retail location.

‼️ I owned the first one on one style salon in San Diego for 7+ years and intend on keeping our business model this way! No barking dogs in cages or waiting or cage drying. Every pet will still receive 100% of our full attention for their session!‼️

Please do not fret! The salon will remain a stress free atmosphere where we groom pets straight through and we will also have budget options available once we are settled in for customers who don’t mind a semi-private appointment for their pets.

Having a salon space will also allow us to hire more staff & train them up to our fear free purely positive, consent based pet grooming standards to continue raising the bar for pet related businesses here in Alaska.

Prices will be changing to reflect our current overhead beginning April 1st- most will be lowering by anywhere from $20-60 depending on service and pet. Prices may adjust a bit once we nail down our location here in North Pole and build out.

We currently are not scheduling large super hairy desheds at this location out of courtesy for the owner of the garage, Briana is operating out of Lucky Dog downtown Tuesday-Thursday until end of April, if you are in Fairbanks and would like to request an appointment with her over there please do!

Ty and I are taking appointments Tuesday-Saturday and have openings! If you need a Saturday, please text asap as these are already filling up for April.

Without worrying about routing it will be much simpler to schedule also 🙂

If your pet needs an appointment please text me. I have lost track of most of our reoccurring appointments, I have been trying to reach out to everyone and let them know of the update.

We are still able to offer pick up and drop off mornings and afternoons within North Pole with an additional fee of $15 each direction ❤️

Thank you so much for your patience, patronage, and loyalty!

Do we have any clients with concrete pouring companies to build a slab for us? 🙏
Free grooming every 2 months for life and you’ll also be paid for your time if we can do it this summer.

Thank you!

What an angel

Hoping for good news tomorrow but as of right now every single aspect of the bus is completely decommissioned, even the salon conversion.

Mechanical aspects should be finished being repaired this week, but without power (shoreline or otherwise) there is just no way we can continue to operate. We have been running off of extension cords to our water pump with one shop light for the last two weeks, with our grooming tables and equipment set up in the garage. We are making it work as smoothly as we can, but the shop space we rent was not intended to be used this way and we cannot keep grooming dogs safely this way.

We are all devastated, disappointed, sad, mad. The loss of income and damage to our reputation by constantly having to cancel due to being frauded by the builder of the conversion is catastrophic and we are completely out of funds.

Most of you have been amazing but a handful of now ex clients have been nothing but nasty to us when we have just been trying our hardest absolutely break our hearts and spirit.

We lost over 50k this winter in services, not to mention all of the money I paid the builder during the time I was out for my back surgery and money spent on repairs.

This is a living nightmare and we are hoping for a miracle.

I(Ang) am in California with family for the weekend because I’m losing it a bit.

Once it warms up a bit more, if we can afford to have our inverter re-installed, we will be able to work out of my house temporarily.

Love you all very much- thank you for your support and patronage as always. I will send out cancellation notices and updates asap.
