Our Story
I (Megan) started grooming 6.5 years ago for a woman in Decatur. I apprenticed under her for 2.5 years before she decided to retire. I took the leap of faith to start my own business so that I could continue to offer my grooming services to the Decatur area, while running the business in a way that best suited myself and my clients. I moved my business to Mt. Zion in July of 2016 and have loved every minute of it. Sometimes I can’t believe it has been that long already! Thanks to the wonderful community that Mt. Zion offers, and my amazing clients, my business quickly began booming!
I am a huge believer in continuing education, and I attend at least 1 trade show each year where I take many classes in areas from grooming technique, handling skills, safety, and business management. I have completed one skin care course, and am working towards getting a second certificate in a much more extensive skin course. This allows me to have more extensive knowledge in how to best take care of my clients’ skin issues! I am also a Reiki Master Practitioner which allows me to work with pets on an energetic level as well.
I also assist at dog shows when one of my mentors brings her show dogs down this way! This gives me a unique opportunity to really see how breeds should be cut and get grooming tips from the best! I tend to get bored if I don’t keep learning, so I am always striving to learn more and be better.
Last year, my amazing husband joined the Fly’n Fur business to become my assistant! He has gained knowledge in how to properly bathe your pups so that we ensure that each dog is cleaned and conditioned properly, brushed out, nails clipped, ears cleaned, and given a good once or twice over to check for any potential health issues. He is also the CEO of puppy playtime 😉 He absolutely adores getting time to sit or lay on the ground and wrestle with the dogs while they wait for their owners to come pick them up. His nurturing demeanor has been a wonderful addition to the shop, and he has really bonded with so many of our clients! He attended a pet CPR class with me, as well as taking sanitation classes so that we can provide as safe of a spa day for your beloved pets as possible. ❤️
