Let me give you all an update on what's happening to dog businesses in hanover county. My supervisor does not answer emails or return calls. The same supervisor is Pawsitively Purr-Fect Pet Sitting & Boarding, LLC supervisor. They are basically saying that we cannot do our business out of our homes. They want us to move into a commercial space, which is not what our businesses are about. If we had to move into a commercial space, our businesses would then have to become large operations, just like all of the corporate ones that people don't like. Not to mention, even if we have to move, THERE ARE NO SPACES IN HANOVER COINTY FOR OUR BUSINESSES. so, essentially, they are shutting us down, taking our jobs and our livelihood with no other options. This is NOT fair to us or our clients. They make us pay $750 to the county to apply for a special exception (on our A1 agricultural land), just to be denied. Something has to be done about this. I will NOT give up. This is an uneven playing field. Both of our businesses have so much support (thank you from the bottom of our hearts). Jacki Melton and I encourage you to reach out to your supervisors and tell them that they need to allow us to keep our businesses exactly where they are and how the community will fight back with us because you value us and need us. This is ridiculous. If you need me to help find out who your supervisor is, please let me know. As always, we love our clients and thank you!

They're ALL beautiful! I get a reaction by telling them I love them and then give them little kisses on the head. They dig it! ๐Ÿ’œ

Please support one of the best in the biz! Hanover county needs to know how much the small dog businesses are loved around here. They are trying to push us into a commercial space but that's not what our businesses are about. Our home based businesses are about the individual dog's needs and the comfort of the owners. We don't want to be what they are trying to make us be and neither do our clients!

Hey guys! I need your help. I'm at risk of losing my business and having to move it out of my home. My home is where I want to be for my boys and I have the perfect set up for it, which is why we moved into our forever home. This is a zoning issue and I would have no problem getting it approved, however because of one neighbor complaint, it will get denied, even though I have a lot of supporters. I need more! Please sign so my family and I have a chance of staying in our forever home! Can you help me out by signing this petition?

I had a random beagle show up in my yard today. They are known to be escape artists. He was very cute and friendly. His collar said he belonged to the kirby farm which is behind my property about 9 acres away. I tried to call and text with no answer, so I put him in one of my runs. When I was done with work, I went to go grab him so I could just drive him over to the farm. He wasn't in the run!!! I was like where did he go?!?!?! Then I turned on the light and looked up! Haha, what a sweet boy that added a little excitement and humor to my day! โ™ฅ๏ธ I have no idea how long he was standing there.

About Me!

Hi! I run Nikkiโ€™s Local Grooming Service out of my home in Mechanicsville, VA. I am a one-on-one groomer and by appointment only. What does this mean for your dog? It means your dog will have 100% of my attention and will NEVER be in a cage. My home is a good environment for your dog because it is a home and not a vet or grooming facility with loud clanking cages and barking dogs. I genuinely care for dogs, have a connection with them and working with them is my calling.

Before owning my own business, I was a Project Manager in Marketing and worked for Corporations as well as Agencies. Prior to College and Marketing, I worked with dogs in the roles of Vet Tech, Groomerโ€™s Assistant and Doggie Daycare Attendant for many years. After becoming a mother in 2017, I realized it was more important than ever to be able to be on my own schedule and tend to my family. We acquired custody of my step son in 2018 and We welcomed another son of our own in July of 2019. We now have 3 boys total! I have been grooming for a few years now and this is exactly where I want to be! My dream is to open a local dog kennel that offers boarding, grooming and doggie day care. I have thoroughly enjoyed meeting all of my clients and their owners and am excited to meet many more of you!
