Kelli has always had an affinity for all animals, however a true love of dogs led her to turn her passion into a career. She was offered the opportunity to learn the art of dog grooming and become certified as a professional pet stylist with a national pet company. Kelli went on to sharpen her skills and further her breed knowledge while working under a Certified Master Groomer. She has been grooming professionally for 13 years and landed at Pooches Paradise in 2013.

Kelli has had an auspicious career path since joining the Pooches Pack. She has been cross-trained for multiple positions including pet care technician, Level 3 daycare staff, front desk concierge and full-time groomer. Kelli conceptualized and has grown Pooches professional grooming program from its inception.

Kelli’s goal is to provide a personalized experience with every pet and create a relaxed and “at home” atmosphere where the dogs will truly enjoy their spa time. While she enjoys all facets of grooming, Kelli places a high priority on her ability to work with each dog and gain their trust. (She especially loves the fact the dogs don’t laugh at her when she sings to them!)

When she isn’t busy grooming dogs, Kelli enjoys going to the park with her 2 dogs, Dexter and Zora. She also loves to spend time at the lake fishing and relaxing in the peace of nature.
