We are closed today and potentially may be closed tomorrow as the roads don't look great. Every snowflake is unique and so is every pup we groom. We would never want anything to happen to our clients, their pets, or our staff, so we understand if changes need to be made. I am unable to make it to the salon today so please text me at 571-293-0835 if you would like to book or reschedule for later in the week.

Can you believe it's 2025!!! 2024 almost feels like a fever dream that went by in the blink of an eye. We found out I was expecting in the 2nd week of January and now we have a 4 month old!

Things change quickly. Here's to another year of joy, growth, and prosperity.

Exciting announcement: we will be expanding our mobile grooming days. We are now accepting clients on 2 types of mobile grooming rotations.

🐾Tuesday's we will be offering mobile grooming appointments to clients that would like to be on a 6 week schedule in Leesburg and Lansdowne.

🐾Fridays we are accepting new clients that would like to be on a 4 week reoccurring schedule in Leesburg.

Happy Thanksgiving!! We are closed today and tomorrow to be with our families.This year we are thankful for:

🌟Starting the year with an amazing grand opening! We had like 50 people show up!
🌟Celebrating 5 years of being a business owner.
🌟 Amazing supportive cliets! That showered us with love, advice and gifts when they learned we would be parents.
🌟Our growing staff that kept the salon going while we were away.
🌟 1 wedding and 2 babies!!!

A few weeks ago I tried the baby in the pumpkin trend with Joseph and Ryanne. Well...... Joseph apparently felt that this was the most comfortable pumpkin in the world and slept through 15 minutes of me moving him, talking and taking pictures. 🙃 Ryanne was a pro and a natural model!

Enjoy this sleepy pumpkin Joe and little miss cutie Ryanne.

What are you guys thankful for?

Happy Veterans Day! As some of you may know my little brother is an Army Veteran. I have so much respect for everyone that has ever served and their families that had to wait for their loved ones to return. I have so many wonderful clients that are veterans or family of someone that has served. Thank you all for your sacrifices. 💕

Do you want mobile grooming appointments as an option in the future???

As we continue to expand Heather is interested in taking on some more mobile days in Leesburg. On average mobile appointments are $30 more than salon appointments.

Let me know in the comments!

We are 6 weeks postpartum. At least once a week we get a message asking about the baby or someone is sweet enough to leave us a gift at the salon. Life is good. Baby Joseph is sleeping a little longer through the night and while we love every second... sleep is nice too. Thank you all for taking the time to check on us and thank you for showering him with love.

I'll be in the salon a couple of short days next week and a then the following week a few more. I'm working on the schedule to add myself in the rotation. If you want to make an appointment with me please just let Megan know when you call. I'm excited to start seeing some of my regular pups and people!

Who would have thought that this baby would be chatty like his mom.

I want to just say thank you to everyone that has showered our baby with love. It means so much to have a community of support that has taken the time to check-in on us and make sure we are doing okay. We appreciate every card, every gift and every word of encouragement and advice. Baby Joseph, was born on the 4th and was 8 lbs 7 oz. He is healthy, strong and opinionated.

We love being new parents but as you can imagine we are tired and learning a new routine. This week has been a little weird for the salon as the girls learn to manage without us. We appreciate your patience.

Every year in September, the largest grooming conference in the country is held in Hershey, PA. From the 5th to the 8th, Heather and Hailey will attend courses all day long that will help them on their path to be the best groomers they can be.

Hailey will earn her CPR & First Aid Certificate, an entry Skin and Coat Certificate, an Advanced Skin and Assessment Certificate and will take several courses on the newest techniques, tools and more.

Heather who has already completed some of these courses will take a Geriatric Grooming certificate course, Advanced Skin and Coat Assessment and will also take an additional 8 courses on technique, handling, product and tools.

Because both our groomers will be away we will only be open 10 to 3 Thursday to Saturday this week. Megan will be at the salon to make appointments or make necessary changes but no services will be offered. We will resume posted hours next week.

Of course the real update everyone is looking for...Daniel and I will welcome our baby tomorrow afternoon. This baby is projected to be a big boy so we've opted for a planned cesarean instead of risking any complications. Keep us in your thoughts!

30/08/2024

As many of you know, Daniel and I are expecting our baby soon! By the end of next week we will be new parents and can't wait to meet our little boy. We would like to take the time to adjust and so have made the decision to close Sunday and Monday.

Up to this point Daniel or I would come in and answer the phone, book appointments, and sometimes complete services on our closed days.

In addition we have always had two phone numbers. One line to call and one line to text. We would sometimes pick up calls from the text line or respond at all hours, because they would go straight to our cellphones. We will no longer be able to do this. The line will continue to work as a text line and our new receptionist, Megan, will be responding during business hours, so please be patient.

Call:703-891-0688, Text:571-293-0835
To book your appointment. We are currently booked to mid September.

Thank you for understanding!
💕Rosie, Daniel, Baby, & Barb

It's National Dog Day! Cheers to all the dogs we've been blessed to know, and serve. Sending love to every pup that has helped us grow and filled our days with joy. Special thank you to Miss Barbie doll that makes every day exciting and Mr. Spike that made me who I am today. Without him, I may have never become a groomer, not to mention started a business where I've been able to meet so many amazing people and their loves. ❤️
