Introduction
Hi! I’m Barbara, a passionate dog groomer from Brazil with years of experience in caring for dogs that began on my grandparents’ farm. Now, I bring that same dedication and love for animals to my mobile pet grooming service, where I offer convenient, high-quality grooming right at your doorstep. As a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community, I create a welcoming and inclusive space for all pet owners. My goal is to make each grooming session stress-free, comfortable, and enjoyable for every pet, helping them look and feel their best. Let’s make grooming easier and more enjoyable for our furry friends!

Barbata at Samba Mobile is amazing! She took great care of my dog Charlie and made a comfortable grooming experience. Charlie usually gets very nervous but Barbara was patient and gentle. Highly recommend her to any pet parent!!

Barbara groomed three dogs for me. Two German Shepherds and my little Frenchie. She was gentle and kind with them and they responded with friendliness toward her. She did an excellent job, they looked beautiful and bedazzled when they were done. She will be my mobile groomer from now on.

Barbara did an excellent job with our border collie as he has two coats of hair. Our dog wouldn’t even sit for us long enough to brush him. He was very happy after she groomed him. We would definitely recommend Samba , you won’t be disappointed.
