Ready to book? Let us know the dates you need us!

We choose to do meet and greets with both owners when possible (Jz and Justin). While we try and assign only one main caretaker per household, to keep the routine and familiarity the same for your cats, we both may visit together or separate from time to time. This not only ensures accountability in care, but also allows for your cats to be familiar with a back up person, so that there is no lapse in coverage should something pop up.

What education and or certifications does this groomer have? or are pursing currently?
While grooming isn't necessarily a regulated field requiring a degree to get into... it is a field that allows you to see a wide variety of talents and skills. Since there are no licensing requirements it is imperative that owners take it in their own hands to research who they are trusting their kitty with!
