I Am…Living The Doodle Life!

I am a Certified Professional Pet Groomer and the owner of a private, one-to-one mobile grooming salon serving the South Bay Area. My family and I share our home with Kona, our second Doodle, and it was our first Doodle, Apollo, who unexpectedly set me on this path.

During the early Covid-19 shutdown, groomers were closed in our area. I needed to tap into my inner confidence and learn how to give a proper bath, blowdry and full haircut to a wiggly Doodle puppy. What began as necessity quickly became something more. Time spent doing all things grooming turned into a deeply rewarding way to bond with our dog.

After many years in the corporate technology industry where I built a foundation in business operations, client relationships, and leadership, I made a purposeful shift toward more meaningful, hands-on work. Today, I bring that same professionalism and attention to detail into a more personal, purpose-driven setting.

Bringing my fully equipped mobile salon directly to my clients allows me to: #1 - connect with my wonderful community, and #2 - reduce common stressors (for both me and the dogs!). My thorough, high-quality grooms bring out the best in every dog.

My approach is rooted in calm observation, compassion, and the building of trust-based relationships. Each one-to-one appointment is thoughtfully tailored to the individual dog, prioritizing gentle, safe handling, patience, and positive vibes. This supports a low-stress environment where dogs feel heard, understood and respected. Grooming is centered on health and hygiene, and in my cage-free mobile salon, it is seen as more than a task to complete—it is a bonding activity. My goal is to support each dog’s comfort and well-being, build confidence over time, and bring out their very best features and characteristics.
