Professional Pampering Pup Care

Pet care experience

Dear doggy lovers Hello! My name is Tapanga W. I’ve worked with dogs throughout my life and have yet to find a job more enjoyable and fulfilling. Im currently employed as a Canine Wrangler an groomer at The Barking Lounge located in downtown Seattle. My Background includes experience in providing extensive care for canines, no matter what size or breed. From cleaning up after your pup to grooming and monitoring behavior, I excel in a wide range of tasks to ensure the comfort and overall wellbeing of every dog in my care. Im well versed in keeping clear and accurate records on changes in behavior, food intake and medications . I Encourage group interaction with a eye towards preventing aggression an unwanted behavior especially when attending local dog parks. I Train pups using positive reinforcement techniques to perform basic skills in obedience such as sit, off, leave it and stay. Performed grooming tasks including bathing, blow drying, nail trimming (with both clippers an dermal), brushing coats, ear cleaning and brushing teeth along with checking for tooth decay. I have truly found my passion in caring for dogs an would love the opportunity to care for your canine companions .

Tapanga was amazing! Daily updates on how Mocha was behaving and gave her all the love and activity she wanted! Tapanga also confirmed and gave me all the info necessary with my urgent request due to a trip. Will most definitely book Tapanga again any time! So sorry for the socks! ?

Topanga was great with our little old man. He got lots of cuddly attention, and even got a bath. We'll definitely use her again when we're in the area.
