Meet the Team | Dog Groomers
Alex:
I'm a groomer who has been in the animal industry for the past 14 years. Before entering grooming, I have been a vet assistant, kennel technician, vet receptionist, doggy daycare specialist and boarding manager. I work well with hard to handle and nervous dogs, but terriers hold a special place in my heart. While loving the medical aspect of my previous careers, I always felt it lacked something. My work with fellow groomers led me to follow my passion and knew this career was for me. I am able to work with animals I love, while putting my creative side to use. I have never looked back. I live in Oak Harbor with my husband, our son, two dogs, and our fish. We will soon be adding a Miniature Schnauzer to the family that will become my grooming competition dog under hand-stripped Terriers. Grooming is my passion but in my spare time I love to cook and bake.
Kati:
Being an avid animal lover all my life, when I was introduced to grooming in 2015, I knew it was meant to be. Growing up I always had dogs in the home, and when my husband and I got our German Shepherd in 2014, I knew that they'll always hold a special place in my heart. One of the things I love most about grooming is getting the opportunity to work with so many different dogs, and getting to know each ones unique personality. When I'm not getting my creative outlet at work I enjoy camping, being in the kitchen, and drawing and painting.
Mary:
I love working with all kinds of different dogs and coat styles. I started my grooming journey when I expressed my love for American Cocker Spaniels at the age of 10. My aunt showed me the dog show world for and I never looked back . I have over 20 years of grooming, training and dog show handling experience. I personally show an English Bulldogs and overall love the squishy face breeds! I have worked in the veterinary field as a groomer working on dogs that needed extra care due to medical issues. I have been fully trained in Fear Free Grooming, and try to apply that to every dog I groom. I’m excited to be apart of the posh Team an I can’t wait to meet you and your pups.
Reyna:
I am excited to meet your dogs! I have 30 years of showing, training and grooming experience. I got my start as a "4Her" at
age eight and now have two 4-H kids of my own. I have owned and bred Whippets since 1996, and currently have three Whippets and one Spinone Italiano. I began grooming and showing Shetland Sheepdogs and Greyhounds. I have experience in conformation, obedience, and the rally ring. My favorite show memory was my trip to Westminster in NYC a few years ago. I have apprenticed under a longtime Yorkie breeder, and groomer Corrine Boon, and am forever grateful for their expertise. I have experience with wire coated maintenance as well. I truly love researching show grooms to help make your dog looks like a champion at home.

Lisa:
I started working with animals as a Veterinary Assistant in 1999, and continue this work at NAS Whidbey Veterinary Treatment Facility during the weekdays. I had a unique opportunity in 2007 to work with a wonderfully skilled groomer who helped me perfect my pet grooming technique . My true passion is caring for cats and chose to focus helping felines with their grooming needs. While every cat is unique in personality and grooming needs, I enjoy providing a positive experience for your special friend. I have three cats that I love to spoil along with a chinchilla and four chickens. I look forward to working with your precious kitties making them feel beautiful.
