Meet Our Staff

My journey with animals began early. At 14, I got my first job cleaning stalls, and by 15 I was working as a part-time waitress. In June 2007, I started my career in grooming as a dog bather at a veterinary hospital. The groomer there took me under her wing and taught me everything she knew. By 18, I was grooming part-time and stayed at that hospital until November 2017.

 

From there, I joined a Wilco grooming shop, where I spent three and a half years before moving on to work alongside the very mentor who first taught me to groom, this time at her own salon. I remained there until January 2025, when I relocated to Eugene to be closer to family.

 

Thanks to her guidance and my years of experience, I am now proud to welcome you to Hairy Styles Pet Salon.
