Care You Can Feel. Love They Trust.

Hi! I’m an International Professional Dog Groomer working with animals since 2019. Caring for pets is more than a job for me — it’s truly my passion. I’ve worked in both veterinary hospitals and professional grooming salons, where I gained experience caring for pets of all ages, temperaments, and individual needs. As I do have a professional background in grooming. When appropriate and discussed within your booking, I’m happy to incorporate grooming care as part of your pet’s stay to help keep them comfortable. My goal is always to provide a calm, safe, and stress-free environment where your pet feels loved and well cared for. I look forward to caring for your fur baby and giving them a comfy, positive experience 🐾🤍 Rabies Vaccinations is required upon booking for dogs & cats

I can’t recommend Destine enough! She took such amazing care of Penny and treated her like she was her own. I got regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious that Penny was happy, comfortable, and well loved. I was a little nervous leaving my cat, but she completely exceeded my expectations. I’ll absolutely be booking with her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable!

Schedule

Pet care is a consistent and important part of my daily routine. I structure my days around the needs of the pets in my care to ensure they receive proper attention, supervision, and timely services. Throughout the day, I schedule time for feeding, potty breaks, playtime, grooming appointments, and rest periods. I am intentional about not overbooking so each pet receives the quality care, patience, and one-on-one attention they deserve. My weekly routine is flexible to accommodate both grooming and boarding clients, while still maintaining a calm and structured environment. This allows me to provide reliable, attentive care and adjust as needed based on each pet’s individual needs.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and secure environment where pets can feel at ease while in my care. In my home, pets are always supervised and given a structured routine that includes regular potty breaks, feeding schedules, playtime, and rest. Each pet has a safe, designated space to relax, and I carefully monitor all interactions to ensure a stress-free experience. For grooming services, I use a gentle, low-stress approach, allowing pets to feel comfortable throughout the entire process. I take my time and adjust based on each pet’s behavior and needs.

Pets

A typical day

Your pet’s day is designed to feel structured, peaceful, and full of care. Mornings begin with potty breaks, fresh food and water, and a calm start to the day. Pets staying for boarding will enjoy a balance of supervised play, rest time, and personalized attention throughout the day. For grooming appointments, your pet will receive gentle, one-on-one care in a low-stress environment. I take my time to ensure your pup feels safe and comfortable during their bath, grooming, and any additional services. Throughout the day, pets are monitored closely, given regular potty breaks, and provided a clean, cozy space to relax. In the evening, we wind down with light activity, feeding, and a calm atmosphere so your pet can settle in comfortably for the night. I’m happy to follow any specific feeding routines or dietary needs you provide.

To provide the best care possible, please let me know ahead of time if your pup requires any special attention. This includes medical needs, behavior concerns, anxiety, sensitivities, or anything that will help me properly handle them. My goal is to ensure your pet’s grooming or boarding experience is safe, comfortable, and tailored to their individual needs.
