McKenzie K.
Assistant Manager / Professional Groomer
McKenzie's grooming journey is rooted in a lifelong passion for dogs, so deep that her first word was "dog". Her diverse experience as a vet tech and bather, coupled with her interest in dog training, eventually led her to the world of grooming, where she feels most at home.
For McKenzie, the most fulfilling part of grooming is working with challenging dogs and witnessing their behavior transform in a consistent and loving environment. She believes every dog is unique and special, which is why she doesn't play favorites with breeds. Each pet brings its own charm and challenge to the grooming table.
When she's not busy grooming, McKenzie is a dedicated Taylor Swift fan, loves adding to her vinyl collection, and expresses her creativity through painting. An interesting tidbit she shares is about Taylor Swift – while Taylor herself doesn't own any dogs, her mom has a Great Dane!

Holly M.
Professional Groomer
Holly found her grooming calling at a corporate salon, turning a quest to escape dead-end jobs into a passion for working with animals. She excels in transforming grooming sessions into trust-building experiences, especially for fearful dogs, helping them find comfort and joy in the process. In 2024, she showcased her skills on a competitive stage, winning first place at Hershey's Rescue Round Up competition—a milestone that has fueled her excitement for future competitions.
Her favorite breed to groom is the Yorkie, inspired by her own Yorkie/Chihuahua mix. She loves their varied personalities and enjoys styling them in everything from elegant long coats to playful Asian fusion cuts.
Outside the salon, Holly's hobbies range from gaming and true crime documentaries to creative endeavors like makeup and coloring. She's also a fan of sharing unique dog facts, like the record-breaking lifespan of Bobi, the world’s oldest dog.
Laci Z.
Professional Groomer
Laci’s grooming journey began with her deep love for animals. She started her career in a pet store as a cashier and small animal caretaker, but soon realized she wanted a hands-on, creative career working with pets. Grooming became the perfect blend of her passion for animals and her artistic skills, and she hasn’t looked back since.
One of Laci’s most rewarding experiences as a groomer is helping fearful dogs grow comfortable with the process, earning their trust over time. She also loves working with puppies, guiding them as they learn to enjoy grooming. Yorkshire Terriers hold a special place in her heart—having grown up with Yorkies, she has a natural soft spot for the breed.
Outside of grooming, Laci enjoys concerts, reptiles, horror movies, reading, and spending time with her own animals. She also loves sharing fun dog facts—like how petting a dog lowers both human and canine blood pressure! With patience, skill, and a love for animals, Laci is dedicated to making every grooming experience a positive one.
