Eager to help!

Hello! I am an experienced pet professional, with 20 years of grooming and pet sitting experience. I’ve spent part of those years traveling for grooming competitions and caring for other people’s (prized!) dogs during those travels. I have since “retired” from working full time to stay home with my children, but being both a work-aholic and animal enthusiast, I still groom on the weekends and offer boarding. I could not imagine being in any other profession, and I take great pride in my work. When you board your furry family member with me, you can be sure that they are treated as if they are one of our own and in a cozy “at home” atmosphere. We hope to see you soon!

I couldn’t be happier with the care my pup received with Gloria! I will definitely be scheduling with her again!

I highly recommend Gloria. She has a wholesome family home with dog-loving children. She sent me pics of my dog Otis throughout my vacation, and is super kind and responsive. I know that Otis loved staying at her home and I will be using her for my future dog boarding needs!

Over the years, I’m confident that I have worked with every personality an animal can have. Adjustments are always expected to make your pet as comfortable as possible, but my only non-negotiable is that your pet must be comfortable with children. We have plenty of areas in our house to accommodate times your pet may need their own space, but if you are unsure of reactions towards little people we may not be a good fit.
