Introduction
I like to build relationships with my clients & set up revolving schedules for their pets on a 2,3,4,6 or 8 week basis. Many have happily kept my services for 16+ years. I love & always have loved animals, I grew up with a houseful so working with them always seemed the natural choice for me.

Emily is incredible. I have 6 Persian, long haired cats, all with different temperaments. She was loving and extremely patient with them. She is also a perfectionist. They all look absolutely beautiful. The ease of having her come to my house is a game changer. I will continue to use Emily for all grooming needs. I highly recommend Emily. You will not be disappointed. She comes with all supplies and her love!

We reached out because we had a matted long hair senior cat that was out of control, and would not let us cut him properly. In fact we felt horrible, he put up such a fight with us a few weeks ago we accidentally cut his skin. A professional was needed and that's what we got! I couldn't be more thankful. This guy doesn't even like leaving the door, which wasn't a problem. Em came and set up in our bathroom and did magic! Our cat howled like he usually does, but Em was wonderfully encouraging and even sung a little to him and for the first time since we had him he calmed down during a stressful (to him) event! I was so impressed with the work once our cat was done I asked if Em wouldn't mind doing our other cat while they were here and they agreed no problem! Consummate professional! I couldn't recommend enough! You've found your groomer!

Details: 10 or older • Anxiety • 6 - 12 months ago • I'm flexible • Mobile grooming - in home • No additional cats

FAQs

  • What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

    Yes, basically my rate is $55 an hour with a $10 service fee. So up to the first hour of grooming is a flat rate of $65 which includes a bath, shampoo, conditioner, ears cleaned, nails cut, blow dry, brush out & any trimming if necessary. Should a groom go over an hour I charge $13.75 per 15 minute increment. 1hr 15mins would be $78.75, 1hr 30mins $92.50, 1hr 45mins $106.25, 2hrs $120.00 and so it goes on. I also provide add on services such as special shampoos etc: Oatmeal $5.00 Flea & Tick $8.00 Flea & Tick + 30 day preventative $15.00 De-shedding treatment $10 Teeth brushing $5.00 Anal Gland Expression $10.00 Special handling of Older/difficult dogs $10.00

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    I started grooming in early 2001 as a brusher/bather at Petsmart & within a couple of months I was sent to grooming school in Pasadena funded by them. in November 2005 I started my own mobile grooming business....the rest is history😃

  • What types of customers have you worked with?

    Most of the customers I work with have 1 or 2 family pets they have me groom, some have as many as 6 or more! I also work with rescue organisations, I have been grooming dogs for The Gentle Barn since 2007.
