My background is in visual arts, having achieved a Bachelor of Fine Arts, and two post graduate certificates; 3D for Design & Architectural Professionals; Graphic Arts & Prepress Technology.
In 2023 I decided to invest in my education once again, enrolling in Pets Beautiful School of Styling - Canada's longest running grooming academy, located in London, Ontario.
After graduating, I worked as a groomer with Natalie at Skandi Paw, located in the Town of the Blue Mountains. My time there was invaluable, learning from Natalie who has been in the pet care business for her entire career. After a few years, I decided to take the plunge, and renovate my garage to open my own salon. Thus Best In Show Grooming was born!
As I have a full-time job at Hospice Georgian Triangle that I absolutely love, this shop is only open every other Saturday. Therefore our shop can only maintain a small client list. If you have a small to medium sized dog, who you feel can be handled safely by a solo groomer, please reach out.
Since graduating grooming school, I have maintained a membership to the Ontario Dog Groomers Association (ODGA). Members in good standing with the ODGA are professionals committed to high standards, pet safety, and ethical care. I have also frequented T.O.G.S. - a major Canadian professional pet grooming event.
