About


Professional Certified with Honors Pet Groomer for Dogs, Cats and Small Animals.

I have loved animals my whole life. I worked at Mitsy's Pet Shop years ago in Cornwall Ontario where I had the privilege of learning Pet grooming. Later I took the Animal Care and Pet Grooming course.
I saved money and bought a little house and now have my shop in basement.
I believe that your pet should have my undivided attention and also not be surrounded by many other pets waiting in cages. I do one pet at a time. So I call it a private apt with your pet
I hope it makes a more relaxing atmosphere.

I provide service for:
Dogs up to approx. 90lbs
Cats
Rabbits
Guinea pigs

Open by apt only between Tuesday & Saturday

The importance of grooming

Regular brushing and grooming are necessary to maintain good health. The pets coat consist of two different types of hair the soft under coat and the outer guard coat. The coat eventually dies and is replaced with new growth. The dead hair must be removed, even in the "non shedding breeds". Removing the dead hair stimulates circulation, releases necessary oils in the skin, and facilitates new hair growth. It also prevents tangling of the hair called matting which can be very painful for the animal. De-shedding helps reduce unwanted hair in your home by 70% to 90% (which is all the excess hair in your home) matts are very painful, your cat relies on you to brush him and care for him. Cats are groomed for similar reasons.

Grooming double coated dogs

Shaving Dogs with an under coat Samoyed, huskies, shepherds and Akita, Collies even Pomeranian's have two coats: a rain coat and undercoat. The undercoat keeps them warm; the rain coat keeps them dry and them warm in the winter. When you shave a dog, you get rid of that top rain coat, removing the protective layer. Double coated dogs hair rarely has to be cut. Some think if they shave the dog in the summer the dog will be cooler. In reality, shaving the double coated dog is cruel. Even trimming the top coat can leave the under coat exposed and removed the protection the dog naturally has. Your dog can overheat more easily. Dogs don't have sweat glands as we do. They don't release the heat of their bodies through pores; they release it through panting. So by removing the outer coat, you're removing the insulation that keeps the dog cool. So if your dog is panting yes he's hot but shaving him will make it worse. If your dog needed to get shaved due to severe matts keep him in the shade so he doesn't get a sunburn or heat stroke and give him plenty of water.

Grooming cats

When shaving a cat it usually stresses them a lot so I prefer not too unless their isn't any choice, if your cat is matted I will shave them out and then if the cat can tolerate it I will even him out. Yes I know how to do a lions cut but I'm just trying to explain that not all cats can tolerate it. About 80% of cats are usually scared of the clippers and when stress their heart and breathing can elevate and have a stroke. Some cats can be done, but I prefer to say I will shave all the matts out and if the cat seems fine I will even it out as best as possible, it depending on them. Removing their natural insolation is not good either. I will brush your cat out, bathed him shampoo and condition, de-shed your cat and trim his nails, check his ears.

Grooming A Puppy For The First Time

Puppies can be nervous or hyper. Very excited or scared to be somewhere they've never been. Let's take it a little slow, like I do with any pets I work with I try and make the pet feel comfortable and at ease. In some cases it might be best to do it in two visits. Give a bath, wash and dry, trim the nails, check the ears if need plucking or and cleaning. Brushing. Next visit, brushing and hair trim. Most of the time everything can be done in one visit.

Grooming Pets That Have Been Negeted or Abused

An abused and neglected pet needs time and patience when they get groomed because they never been cared for properly they have most likely never been handled and bathed or trimmed, a clipper around them may make them nervous, so it may take a couple more visits until he/she will feel more comfortable and I'm here to help.

Grooming Small Animals

Small animals should only get dry shampooed. If the pet is severely dirty it can be washed very very carefully and MUST be fully dried as they can easily catch pneumonia. What I can help is: • if your bunny has long hair and has mats or knots. • trim nails • brush and combing.

F.A.Q

Sometimes matts are so tight against the skin the groomer needs to take her time to get the blade between the matts and skin. Sometimes it takes very short to very very short blades. Pets skin is sensitive and in some areas it winckles and we definitely need to be careful not to cut the pets skin.  
We all want our pets nails trimmed very short. However in some cases we can't go as short because if the nail isn't trimmed on a regular basis the quick grows longer also and if you cut too short the nail will definitely bleed. So the groomer will definitely cut as short as they can and if done a couple of times on a regular basis the quick will start to shrink back and then the groomer can cut shorter.

Matted pets take longer to shave because some matts are closer to the skin then some other areas on the pet. Also when a groomer shaves down many matted pets the blades used become dull faster and need to be sharpened more often.
