The Travelling Dog Groomer

Hello! I am an Award Winning pet stylist with a mobile grooming van. I have been involved with animals since I was born. My career had begun. I was hooked!

My mother was a veterinary technician and an active animal trainer, we were always spending time around animals, dogs, cats, horses, birds, reptiles, you name it. I began horse back riding at age 3, and continued for the next 20 years of my life. When my journey brought me to Portland, I wanted a job working with animals. At first, I believed I wanted to follow in my mother's footsteps and be a ve

terinary technician, but soon realized I couldn't support myself and go to school. I decided to get a job at a pet grooming shop with my extensive knowledge of dog breeds, as I had been obsessed as a child. After I left my first job in search of more knowledge, I began grooming with very little knowledge and was very proficient, and within 6 months of beginning my career I was brought to my first dog grooming competition in Tacoma, Washington, where my eyes were opened to a new world. I realized that there was so much more to learn than I had even imagined, and I was immediately thirsty for that knowledge. Soon after, I began taking lessons with a local dog grooming friend. After our first lesson together, she encouraged me to continue and to look into competition as I had natural talent. The next competition she attended was in Las Vegas, so I drove with her and assisted her for the week to get an idea of what was behind the scenes. I began taking lessons with one of Groom Team USA's traveling members and decided to compete the next year. In my first competition, I placed first in my Entry and third in the Group. Then, my competitive journey began. In 2013, I attended 4 competitions, in Tacoma, WA, Las Vegas, NV, Chicago, IL, and Dallas, TX. At the end of the year, I was ranked 11th in the nation via Groom Team USA. I competed with Bichons, Kerry Blues, English Springer Spaniels, Poodles, and mixed breeds. I have also groomed Bichons for the AKC confirmation ring. It is a journey, a path, a process, and an art in my life. I continue to be swooned by this practice, and find myself compelled and driven in the pursuit of knowledge and creativity.

recap!
Firstly, I want to say thank you to and for being such huge pillars of support and such great cheerleaders. Honestly wouldn't have been able to do it without them! Secondly, I'm honestly so shocked and very proud of myself, after 10 years out of the ring I did way better than I expected. I'm so grateful I was able to bring this wonderful dog, Pearl, she was absolutely incredible.

Some lessons I learned:
🌟 it's so important to have support at competitions, and community with our fellow groomers. We can't do this alone, and we are better for it when we help each other.
🌟 The difference between winning 1st or 2nd is often just a few stray hairs. Everyone on that stage is incredibly talented, and no one is perfect every time.
🌟 Competing is about learning, growing, and showing up compassionately for the animals.
🌟 I'm allowed to be proud of myself 😂 Groomers can be so self deprecating, but we are so incredible!
🌟 Keeping a dog looking good for 2 and 1/2 days until the Best in Show lineup is so hard! It's especially challenging when you've got that much time to stare at your mistakes 😂

I had such a fun time meeting all kinds of new friends and seeing familiar faces from back in the day. The facility and show were beautiful and I will definitely be back next year. Thank you to all the judges and facilitators!
