I hope everyone is enjoying summer activities. Remember heat stroke in dogs is a real thing and can happen fast. Keep your pups cool and safe in the heat this summer. And obviously never leave them in a hot car ever for any reason.

Hey guys, hope everyone's summer vacation is going well. I wanted to let everyone know I have a few spots available for clients who would like a set schedule for the year so you do not have to frantically search for an appointment when it is time for your pets maintenance. This also helps build a bond between me and your pet which helps to cut down on their stress level. Please send me a text message at (803)760-8686 with your name, your pets name, and a recent picture of them so I can decide how much time I will need to mark out for them. I work one on one with them and they all have their own appointment times with me. I will go over any questions or concerns with you then. Spots are very very limited. I look forward to hearing from you.

Did a little rearranging this weekend and opened a little more space for the pups to run around after their spa time.

Hey guys! Hope everyone is ready for this fall season

I wanted to give a few heads up and updates on the coming year.

I am working now on next years schedule and will make sure everyone receives their new appointments before the end of the year.
If you would like to change the number of weeks in between appointments, please reach out to me via text at (803)760-8686 and I will do my best to accommodate this.

PRICING UPDATE
I have tried to keep my prices steady in hopes that the economy would get back to some resemblance of normal, but due to inflation and the cost of my products going up as well as everything else I will have to raise my prices. As much as I really don't want to do that. I do hope you understand. And will continue to keep them as fair as possible.

I will not be accepting electronic payments as much as I did this year. I will be getting back to cash or check only. I do understand if you have a few emergency situations and need to pay that way. I will only be taking Zelle or Cash App. And if you are paying this way it needs to be immediately after the service or within 30 minutes after pick up. I know the signal is a little funny at the salon sometimes.

CANCELATIONS AND NO-SHOWS
I also want to take the time to remind everyone about my cancelation policy. Last minute cancelations that I do not have enough time to fill will have to be paid for in full in order to keep your future appointments on my schedule. This means they need to be canceled 24 hours or more in advance. I have also been more lenient with this lately due to the economy, but I can not continue to do this. I do understand emergencies, but some have taken advantage of this. This also goes for no-shows. These missed appointments will have to be paid in full as well in order to keep future appointments.

I want to say thank you to everyone. I believe I have some of the very best clients and I look forward to continuing to work with you all and your sweet pups. I appreciate your understanding and look forward to the new year. I hope everyone stays safe, warm, and healthy.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hey guys. I hope your summer has started off amazingly. I just wanted to notify everyone that I will be going cash only starting immediately. Thank you so much for your cooperation.

04/20/2023

Hey everyone! I hope everyone is having an amazing springtime. I just wanted to make a quick announcement that may help some out. If you have lost your appointment card I did my best to send them as a picture in our text messaging conversation. Most of the time if you scroll up a bit in our conversation or look at the shared files in the messaging app the picture of the appointment card is right there. I know some may not know this. This is also another reason I only communicate in writing and not over the phone. I hope everyone has an amazing rest of the month and a beautiful rest of the year 🥰

Also I do have a cancelation policy for missed appointments. That can be seen in previous posts on this page.

10/21/2022

Hey guys, I just wanted to let everyone know I am getting myself organized to start on the schedule for 2023.
I am scheduling them in 4,6,8, and 12 weeks intervals. If you wanted to change the amount of time in between your appointments as of what it has been this year please let me know or if you need to schedule them out longer than 12 weeks and I will do my best to accommodate as best as I possibly can. Please note all of my Saturdays for next year are already full. I will have availability between Tuesdays and Fridays appointment times are every hour between 10 o'clock and 2 o'clock with my last appointment being at 2 o'clock.

Thank you all again so much. I look forward to continuing to work with you and all of these amazing little souls. I hope everyone has a joyful holiday season.

Please contact me via text message.

Hey guys I hate to do this but it has become a necessity. I completely understand certain situations. But I have a lot of people I have had to turn away lately due to being fully booked. I have a list of people who would like to become clients and this seems to be the only way to w**d out the dead spaces in my book. Thank you to all of you that always show up on time and I appreciate all of you who understand this policy. I love my clientele and all of your fur babies, but I have to do what is best for my business.
Much love to you all.

03/19/2022

I am open Tuesday through Friday by appointment only. Please do not show up without one it will not change my availability.

Please do not leave a voicemail. I cannot understand what most people are saying and I will not respond to a voicemail.
I will try to respond during business hours, but I do not stop working on pets to answer the phone for their safety and mine. If you contact me after business hours, I will get back to you on my next business day.

If you would like to make an appointment send me a text message with your name, your pets name, their breed, their weight, and a picture so I know how much time I will need to mark off for them.

At this moment I am no longer taking new clients, but if you would like to get on a list for when and if I am able to feel free to send me your info for my waiting list. I do not groom large breeds or badly behaving pets. Due to availability if you have an appointment and you cancel at the last minute or do not show up you are likely to be dropped as a client. I apologize for this but it has become a necessary inconvenience. If you would like to stay a client you will need to pay for the missed visit and put down a non refundable deposit for their next appointment.

At the moment I have limited appointments available for the year, but I will do my best to get your pet in.

Thank you everyone.

01/18/2022

Hey guys, I am still working on the schedule. Just wanted to make an announcement here so people are aware.
I AM NOT TAKING NEW CLIENTS AT THE MOMENT.
THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING MY SERVICES.
I will make an announcement if I decide to but I highly doubt I will at this moment.

Also I have most likely added the majority of you guys to the schedule already. I am just holding off on sending them all in case I need to switch a few appointments around. I will try to at least send the first appointment of the year soon.

01/08/2022

Hey guys. Just a quick update. I have been working on the schedule. If you have sent me a message and it is left unread do not worry I am getting to you guys and leaving them unread just helps me stay organized and not miss anyone.

01/07/2022

Hey guy, this is a little follow up from yesterday. I am still in the process of scheduling my regularly occurring clientele. I am still at the moment not taking on any new clients until I can better see what my availability looks like. This is kind of a slower process than I expected and it is the first time I have done my schedule like this so thank you for your patience while I work it all out. I already know what I will be doing differently at the end of this year 🤣.
If I do not send you a list of appointments I will make sure you have them on your next visit. I am working my way down a very long list. Still feel free to send me a text message with your name, your pets name and a recent picture of them so I know how much time I will need to mark out for them. And also how many weeks in between each visit you would like.

I will also be writing up a cancelation and no show policy and posting that as well as sending copies home with everyone.

When and if I do take new clients I will only be taking small breeds at my discretion.

Thank you guys all so much. I look forward to working with you and your babies this year!

01/06/2022

Hey guys. I just wanted to touch base with everyone. I took some time off for the new year so I apologize if you haven't been able to reach me. I will be making the appointment scheduled for the rest of the year here probably in a few hours. I have my regulars on a list and will probably be reaching out to you guys shortly and sending the appointments I have, to see how they all work for you guys. And getting back to everyone who sent me messages for scheduling.
Thank you guys all for your patience. And full disclosure because I want to be as honest with my clients as possible I was getting a bit burnt out and really needed some time for me and my family so I can be in the best mindset for you and your sweet fur babies. I hope you all have a very Happy New Year!!! And I will see you soon.

10/12/2021

Hey guys! I hope all is well. I will be posting my next openings for the month of December as well as a new cancelation/late policy I will be sticking to soon.

08/10/2021

Hey guys! I hope everyone made it back to school safely. I just wanted to let everyone know I am now booking for the month of October. And I am still currently not taking on new clients and probably will not until the 1st of the year after I have had a chance to get all of you and my regularly scheduled clients on the book for the new year. Thank you guys all so much for your patience!
Please send me a text message with your name, your pets name, their breed, weight, and a picture so I know how much time will be needed for them.
Please do not leave a voicemail I do not answer the phone while I am working on pets for their safety and for mine.

05/22/2021

Hey guys! I just wanted to let everyone know I am now booking for July. I am still temporarily not taking new clients so that I can get my regular and current clients taken care of during this busy season. Please book ahead because I can only groom so many dogs in a day.
Send a text message to 803-760-8686 or message me on this page with your name, your pets name, their breed, their weight, and a picture so I know how much time I will need to mark out for them. Please do not call or leave a message. It is easier for me to keep records via text. I also do not have time to stop during the day to answer the phone because it interferes with my clients appointments that day. It can also be dangerous if I am not completely focused on the pet.
If you have messaged me recently and I have not responded I apologize, I had some issues with my phone but they should be taken care of now.

I am closed on Sunday and Monday.
Thank you guys all so much!!!

05/05/2021

Hey guys. I just want to say thank you all so much for your well wishes. They really meant a lot.

I just wanted to say I am now booking for June. I am still temporarily not taking new clients so I can make all the dogs I have worked with in the past a top priority.

Please send a message to this page or a text message to 803-760-8686. Please include your name, your pet's name, their breed, their weight, and a recent picture so I know how much time I will need to mark out for them.

I am closed on Sunday and Monday
Thank you all so much.

04/21/2021

Hey guys! I just wanted to let everyone know I am currently booking for the month of June.
I also wanted to give everyone a little bit of a heads up. I will most likely not be answering any messages between the Thursday April 22nd until Tues April 27th. We have experienced a loss in our family and I would like to concentrate on them while we go through this. I just want to say how much I appreciate your patience and I will get in touch with people in the order the messages come through.

Please send a text message with your name, your pets name, their breed, their weight. And a recent picture so I know how long I will need to mark out for them. I don't normally answer phone calls while I am working on a pet and I am closed on Sunday and Monday. Thanks everyone!

04/10/2021

Hey guys! I just want to say thank you so much to all of my clients. Right now I am temporarily not taking on any new clientele so that I can get all of my regular clientele in during this busy season. I appreciate you guys so much and want to make sure you are specially catered to. I am completely booked for April and am booking into May. Please please book ahead if you can.

Please send a text message to 1(803)760-8686 with your name, your pets name, their weight, and a recent picture so I know how much time to mark off for them.
I do not answer the phone while I am working on a pet for their safety and mine. I also have a tight appointment schedule and sometimes answering the phone will put me behind. But I can sometimes get to a text faster.

I also would like to say thank you so much for your patience to anyone who has had to wait a little longer than normal. I am trying to fix that by limiting the amount of new dogs I will be taking in. (Right now that is none)

I hope everyone has a great weekend! Thank you!

04/01/2021

Hey guys!! I hope everyone is ready for a Happy Easter.
I just wanted to let everyone know I am booking for the last week of April and the first week of May. I only have a few appointments left available this month. I can not squeeze anymore dogs in anywhere and will not for their safety and mine.
I am booking about 3 weeks in advance now so please make sure you get on the schedule and I also have a very long cancelation list. I want to make everyone as happy as I can but I only have so much time in a day. I also have no more available Saturday appointments until Sat Jun 26th

Please send me a text message at 1(803)760-8686 with your name, your pets name, their breed, their weight, as well as a recent picture of them so I know how much time I will need to mark out for them.

I do not answer the phone while I am working with someone's pet for their safety and mine as well as for the sake of staying on schedule because I groom only by appointment.

Thank you so much for your patience and understanding. This is a very busy time of year for most groomers and I am doing everything I can to make sure I can get your pups on the schedule.

Hey guys! I hope everyone is enjoying this nice weather today. I just want to let everyone know I have a few appointments left for Friday March 19th and am now booking for the week of Tuesday March 23rd. The 19th is the only day I have any availability until then as I have squeezed in as many as possible and can not take anymore at this moment, but you are welcome to be put on a cancelation list in case I have anything become available.
