Pretty girl Missy came in for a spa day & trim and turned out so cute!! She has become one of my little besties and had to go to another groomer during my break. She was so happy to see me when I returned and that's why I do what I do. The bond I build with my clients makes me so happy 🥰

My new friend Tikko came in today for a good scrub down and let's just say I am in LOVE! He has such a gentle personality and is a big ole' lover. He gave me so many hugs 🥰 Isn't he so handsome?!! 😍🫶🏻🐾

Totally forgot a before picture, but my pretty friend Sadie Mae came in to see me for a spa day and left looking so cute. She always makes herself comfy on the table and behaves so well. I love her sweet little self 🥰❤️🐾

It felt good to be back up in the shop today, I've missed my clients so much!! 🥺

Pretty girl Roxi came in for her first visit and had such a good spa day! I love how her haircut turned out, she was such a sweetheart 🫶🏻🐾

I will be back in the shop again this week with extremely adjusted hours. They aren't ideal, but it's what I can manage right now to not have to spend a fortune on childcare. I will post the new hours this week and will do my best to answer as many messages as I can between taking care of the baby. If you haven't heard from me, I promise I'm not ignoring you. I'm just juggling a lot right now and trying to get everyone taken care of while remembering to breathe 🫶🏻 Please be patient with me while I work through all of this. ❤️

As some of you have noticed, I haven't been open much lately. I am working on getting guardianship of my granddaughter as I have her full time. I had a meeting with the state today and they recommended she be placed with us and approved me to participate in the program which with help with childcare. Until I find someone reliable to care for her, I will have to be open only a few days a week during the evening and the weekends all day so Joshua can care for her when he is home. We appreciate your understanding as we go through these changes. I will reach out to those that needed an appointment when I am back in the shop 🫶🏻🐾

Pretty girl Winnie came in for a bath and Deshed and did an incredible job! She is one of those silly kitties that actually enjoyed the bath and didn't fight it 😅 I raked so much hair off of this girl and she went home feeling a lot lighter. She was mad at me when I first started brushing but ended up sprawling out on the table, purring, and rolling on her back. Dawn-1 Winnie-0 🤣 Such a beautiful girl 🥰❤️🐾

My bestie Waino is here for another fun weekend at the boarding house! It always makes me so happy that he gets excited to see me, he wags his tail and walks right in and immediately starts playing after his parents leave. He always does so good, we definitely enjoy having him 😁🤩🥰🐾

I figured I'd ask this here as well since there is a bigger audience. If you have any recommendations please send them my way! 🫶🏻

We will be closed for a few weeks for summer family time before school starts ,vacation and to handle family matters. I will try to answer messages here and there but will not be on my phone much. I will resume making new appointments when I return. This will be a much needed mental break and I look forward to returning refreshed and ready to go.

There are some clients I still need to reach out to, and will do so as soon as possible. I appreciate everyone's understanding. I have blocked off the schedule while we will be gone but will let everyone know when I open it back up.

Good boy Waino has been here for a few days and will be staying until Monday. He has made friends with all of my grooming clients, and is so friendly to everyone...even babies! My doodle clients make me want to get one so bad, they are always so well behaved!! ❤️🥰🫶🏻🐾

My buddy R***r came in last week for a good bath and trim and his coat is always so healthy and shiny!! He has the cutest little face, always enjoy my time with him 🥰❤️🫶🏻🐾

My two cute friends Charlie and Lucy got to spend a whole week with me while their family was on vacation and always do so good! They left with fresh haircuts and made friends with Waino and Cocoa. They should sleep real good for their momma after today, I miss them already 🥺🥰❤️🐾

We are finally Google business verified to help clients find the salon in the future and not end up at the wrong end of the road 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣
If you have the time and feel like it, please leave us a quick review to help potential new future clients in the decision making process when it comes to caring for their fur babies.
My short term goal is to hire a reliable bather/assistant so I can open up the books again for new clients and provide services to more babies. Thank you to my loyal clients and for trusting me with your 🐕 🐈. Without you, none of this would be possible and I truly am blessed with the best ❤️🐾

This handsome lug came in for a good Deshed treatment and bath and man did the hair keep coming off. Ace is always such a sweetie and does very good for me even though he doesn't realize how tall he is sometimes and tries to knock me over 😅🤣 Such a good boy ❤️🐾

Marshall came in for a huge makeover and boy does he look different! He is a huge standard poodle Great Pyrenees mix and has to feel so much better! He was such a patient sweetie 🥰❤️🐾

Little Miss Tess came in today for a good bath and summer cut and did so good! Isn't her little face so stinkin' cute 🥰❤️🐾

I've had an influx of new clients inquiries as of late so I just wanted to make the official announcement that for now we are thankfully full and unable to take on new clients at this time. This may change in the future and I will make a post when that time comes. If we have already communicated via messenger or text, this does not include you and I will still be able to get you on the books. This is for new client inquiries only, my regular clients are secured 🫶🏻
The best way to guarantee an appointment is to make your next appointment at pick up 🫶🏻

Gentle reminder: I absolutely will not answer phone calls/messages when I have clients in the shop. It distracts me while I have dogs in the bath or on the table and is unsafe. I also try not to be on the business page on the weekends, I have a family too! I try to go through messages at the end and start of the day. I am going to need to start setting some boundaries and policies. I am the only person in the shop and the summer months are super busy, there is no need to be unkind or pushy 💁🏻‍♀️

Siblings Chico & Lucky came in today for a good summer cut with fluffy faces. They always sit so good and behave so well. They make working Saturdays worth it 🥰❤️🐾

06/22/2024

These little sweeties Hank & Dolly get to hang out with me while their parents are out of town and have been doing so good! Love having them in the shop! 🫶🏻

Fluffy girl Mila came in for a good spa day for a bath and haircut and I love how she turned out! Her little face is so adorable. It amazes me what a good haircut can do. Isn't she the cutest 🥰❤️🐾

06/20/2024

Pretty girl Bella came in for a deshed and is feeling so much lighter! Her momma won the bid for the Spaghetti Dinner basket and gift certificate so we spoiled her with a scrubbing and I'm sure I'll be finding her hair months from now 😅 Thank you for supporting our little school and the salon, Bella is always such a sweetie when she comes in 🐾❤️🫶🏻

Little dude Nugget came in for a bath & cut and left with the coolest mohawk 😎 This boy now has the best hair in Tamaroa 😅🤩🐾❤️

06/20/2024

Gorgeous Miss Willa had her first spa day with me and did so good for her first grooming experience 🤩 This girl left the salon literally glowing 🥰❤️🐾 Isn't she so dang pretty?

*Edited to add that she is a silver lab and this picture has no filter. Her coat was so shiny after her bath 🤩

Beautiful Miss Wynonna came to see me yesterday for her first spa day/grooming experience! Although it's not the "norm" for the breed, she got a good haircut to correct some matting/pelting and she sat so good for the whole process and gave kisses the entire time. This girl is more country than thee Wynonna herself 😂. She is a true farm girl and you could tell she lives a very loved, active, and fun life so we just helped her coat out and left her fluff around her face because it's so stinkin' cute! Some may wonder why I cut a double coat, and in my shop I focus on the individual pet and pet owner's needs and their coat condition. We don't judge around here. It's all about the comfort of the animal, what they need, spoiling them with a spa day, and making them cute in the process. Thanks for coming in Winona, it was fun having you in the shop 🥰🐾❤️

We are closed today 6/18 due to family matters. I will post an announcement later today with updates and hours of operation changes etc. We appreciate the understanding as we go through necessary changes.

My cute little friend Sadie Mae had her first appointment with me and did so good! I've known this little girl since her family brought her home and I'm so glad they trust me to care for her now 🥰❤️🐾

Sweet little Wrigley came back for a bath & cut again last week and got so excited when she saw me!! She is such a little cutie and always does so good 🥰❤️

06/11/2024

My new friends Fin and Nova had their first appointment with me and got summer shave downs to help keep them cool and correct some matting! They were both such sweethearts. They were scared of certain tools so we took our time and plenty of breaks. We got through it together and they are all ready for summer. ❤️🐾
