Loving Kindness Grooming

I'm trying to support a friend. Do I have any HVAC people that I could put under contract for my AC service at my grooming shop? It's a once a year service and I need to have somebody under contract for my landlord.

Now available in the shop, we have Nature's Reward handcrafted CBD products for dogs and salve for people, and my full line of Jelliwood Farms apothecary tinctures! These are natural medicine double extraction tinctures made from plants and fungi that I foraged locally. I will also have some of my farm stand produce in here as availability allows. Currently I have squash for a dollar and jalapeno jam for $6 💚😁
I am looking for a local dog treat maker to bring their products into the shop, spread the word!

I get attached to my dogs at work that I groom. I commit myself to their care with love and compassion. I bond with them and they are very important to me. It's the only way I can do my job. And when they pass, I mourn. I lost two of my favorites in the past couple weeks. I know I say a lot of them are my favorites, but these two I've known for a really long time and was blessed to see them through their senior years. Rest in peace Spike, I love you little buddy. Rest in peace Rocky, such a good good boy. I'll never forget either of you and I'll love you forever 🙏💔

I've been enjoying making new friends the past couple weeks 😊 🐾❤️ I still have room for a few more new friends! If you have a delicate senior or a dog who has difficulty physically or emotionally with the grooming process, or you just want your dog to have a one-on-one grooming experience with no waiting around, call or text 570-295-0650. I like the easy dogs, too!

I have limited availability for a handful of new clients! If you've been waiting, now is your time! Call or text 570-295-0650 for availability. I specialize in dogs who have physical or emotional difficulty with the grooming process and delicate seniors, but I enjoy the easy dogs too! 😊🐾

Wanted: your old bath towels! Nothing really thin, full size towels please. A bunch of mine are wearing thin. Thank you in advance! Just drop them at the shop whenever I'm here or text ahead to see if I'm in or bring them at your next appointment. I appreciate it!

Hey everyone! Just giving a heads up that I will be on vacation from May 11th thru May 22nd, returning on the 23rd. I haven't taken this much time off at once in... well, since covid shut down, but does that really count lol? If you need anything during that time, leave a message or text and I will get back to you soon! I will be checking and returning messages every couple/few days. I still have a couple spots open on Tuesday this week. Thank you for your patience!! If there's an emergency grooming situation during that time and I am unable to be available, I cordially refer you to my friends at Pampered Pups (717) 805-5915, same location and all my files are on hand there for reference.

Wishing you all a very merry Christmas and a happy new year! I'm blown away by the kindness and generosity you all have shown me this holiday season. I truly have the best clients and friends a groomer could hope for! Thank you all for letting me be such a big part of your furry children's lives 🙏💚❤️🎄

A note to all existing clients, don't forget to call and book your holiday appointment sooner rather than later! I am saving all remaining spots for you! New clients, I am terribly sorry but I am out of room unless your dog has severe physical or emotional difficulties with the grooming process and you haven't found anyone else willing to help and even then, I'm sorry but you'll most likely have to wait till January. I recommend calling Pampered Pups, the shop I share space with, at 717-805-5915 for sooner booking availability. They have a new groomer with 20 years experience looking to fill her book :)

New sign, same great service ☺️ It is not too early to book your holiday appointments! I am currently booking nearly a month out. If you are a new client, I cordially refer you to Pampered Pups at 717-805-5915. That's the other shop I share space with.

As a groomer, my hardest day is not the one when I overslept, or the one when you overslept, or the day my clippers quit, or the day the power went out, or the day your dog was on their worst behavior. It's the day you call to tell me that the vet said there's nothing more they can do, the day I know that it's my last time with them, or the day you call to tell me your baby crossed the rainbow bridge.
The only way I can succeed in this profession is if I go into every relationship with each dog with my whole heart. My job is not just to make them cute and smell good. It is to do what I can to help them have a better, healthier, happier life, whether I see them one time or every other week. Each one has a special place in my heart, even if it's just for that day, and I grieve each one when they pass. This past month has been one of loss after loss, starting with my sweet baby polar bear Caia who succumbed to old age. Then sweet silly Manny, gone too soon. Today sweet sassy miss Lily has passed suddenly. And today I had what turned out to be my last visit with my special girl Zoey, whos trust in me makes it all worth it. My heart breaks for the love of you, and for your families left behind. Rest well my loves, till we meet again 😥🙏

Thank you all for a wonderful holiday season! I'll be out until January 4th, but I'll still be checking/answering messages and texts. I wish you all a safe and happy New Year!
