99 Problems But Groom'n Ain't 1

10/14/2024

We Won 1st Place!!!! The very "Best Pet Grooming" in Pierce County!!! Voted by YOU!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!! 3 years ago Jonna and I took a big leap of faith and opened up our very own grooming salon. There has been alot of growing pains as we dial this thing in. Mentors, friends who helped build our space, & business learning curves... it's been a journey. A journey I am so greatful to be on with Jonna. We are an exceptional team together!! We grew so fast and got so much word of mouth traffic that we had to close our books to new customers. After months of running at full capacity, we did our homework and learned how to restructure our business model to hire another groomer. Just at that very time we started looking, Ciara reached out to us. We interviewed her and a client volunteered their Mini Schnauzer for her to perform a technical groom for us start to finish. She knocked it out the park. We offered to hire her and started writing policies and procedures in a handbook, ordering equipment, and learning about payroll, labor laws, and more in's and out's of being business owners. When you wear all of the hats of a business there is a lot of behind the scenes work to be done. You might have seen me on an ebike that shoots bubbles out the back down at the waterfront handing out business cards to pet parents. That was 6 months ago we hired Ciara. She has grown a lot in that time. Jonna and I have grown so much in these 3 years and we can't wait to see what the future holds!!! All of a sudden, we get an email telling us we have been nominated for Best of Pierce County "Best Pet Grooming"!! We still don't know who nominated us, but thank you from the very bottoms of our hearts!!! We didnt really think we had a great chance of winning, being a smaller shop and only open 3 years. But Jonna's care, professionalism, & 24 years experience, along with my business hustle, coupled with Ciara joining the team and hard work... We were contacted by the BOPC magazine to tell us we had WON FIRST PLACE!!! Thank you for voting for us!!! We love you all!!! & Shout out to all the other salons in the running!!!

So Ciara is finishing up her 6th month with us here at 99 Problems But Groom'n Ain't 1. I told her when we hired her, if she worked out and things went well, I would order her her own business cards. Here we are... Her clientele is growing and growing and we've received nothing but praise and kind words regarding her grooms!! She has been an excellent addition to the 99 Problems Family and we look forward to watching her grow into the seasoned veteran she is sure to become!! Although she knows alot and is finishing her 2nd year as a professional dog groomer, she is willing and open to learning. Dogs & cats come in all shapes, sizes, & temperaments.. with that being said, Ciara has taken on some grooms that other people would have turned down and not been willing to go the extra mile. Ciara is willing and does go the extra mile. We would trust her with our own dogs any day of the week!!! Congratulations on a great six months!!

Let's play a game!!! 10% off your next service to the first person to guess Shadow"s ⚖️weight within .5 lbs without going over. 1 guess per person. Have some fun, and remember, You might 99 Problems But Groom'n Ain't 1!!!

We are going to call this one. Congratulations!!! The closet answer without going over is Samantha Mineo with her guess of 28lbs!!! Shadow is a Maine C**n and weighs in at 28.8lbs!! When cats get to be a certain size they can have trouble grooming themselves. This can result in some matting of the fur. Shadow's Mom sought us for help. The matting was enough to where we had to shave the mats out. Ciara's remedy to this, was giving him a Lion cut and I think she knocked it out of the park!!! Congratulations on 10% off your next service Samantha & thanks to all participants for another fun game!! We will play another next week!! Remember, you might have 99 Problems But Groom'n Ain't 1!!!

The very best part about my job, has to be when a 3 month old puppy needs some love, and a quick potty break. I get to take him out for the break and snuggle him to so he feels the love.. even if he tries to eat my neck and nose.. Murphy Boy is our instant friend!! We all love you!!!
