My name is Linda and I am a co-owner here at AFPS. I have been grooming for 25 years. I graduated in 1996 from Cherry Hill School of dog grooming. I then came to AFPS to start my career.
My love for animals stems from my childhood. We have always had many dogs growing up. I even worked at a pet store in my teen years and I have always had a passion for the animal world. I am married and have 3 human kids and 5 furry kids (dogs).
I’m Kate, and I’ve been grooming professionally as a dog groomer for 8 years after graduating from The Dog Grooming School of PA. Since grooming I have built up a large clientele of doodles of all types, shapes, sizes, and coat types, and have found a love for creative grooming and would love to potentially expand and do some creative grooming for client dogs (for right candidates) as I mostly just do creative grooms on my own personal dogs (if you see a colorful dog running around the salon, odds are it is mine). I am a dog groomer, as well as the bird groomer in the shop, and I even groom a guinea pig who comes in for the occasional spa day. I own 2 Great Danes, 1 standard poodle, a hairless Chinese crested, and a mystery munchkin (Shih/poo?) that I took in after she came to the salon in need of serious grooming and a home. I also have 12 birds and 1 horse. Prior to working as a dog groomer, I worked at an exotic bird store for 3+ years, which is how I’ve come to offer bird grooming, and I worked on a horse farm for about a year or so (while attending grooming school) and have worked around/shown horses for several years. My hobbies outside of work are k9 agility, k9 water sports, dog parkour, flyball, and any other dog training sports my dogs enjoy. Oh, and I do pet portraits on the side, so I guess you could say animals are kind of just my thing. I look forward to meeting your fur and/or feathered baby!
Hi my name is Lisa or they call me Lee. I have 20 years groomer experience working with all breeds and sizes. I also specialize in grooming police K9’s as well as their personal pets. I have owned several large breed dogs, I currently have a Doberman Pincher named Zelda who comes to work with me often. I have always had a love for dogs since I was a child. I love working with dogs and enjoy what I do everyday.
My name is Catherine, I have been professionally grooming since graduating from grooming academy in 2020. Working with animals started when I was a kid with my own dog walking and pet sitting business in 1998. From there I began working at a doggy daycare and boarding facility where I was introduced to professional grooming and eventually became a grooming assistant. In 2013 I moved to San Francisco, California and managed a doggy daycare for 5 years. This is when and where I realized I wanted to work with animals the rest of my life. When I moved back to New Jersey I pursued my dream career as a dog groomer. It’s been a wonderful experience grooming, inspiring me to further my education. I achieved certification in cat grooming as well as many other dog grooming styles. I especially love to groom double coated dogs! Some of my favorite breeds to work with include, Klee Kai, Huskies, Pomskis, Samoyeds, Pomerians, Malamutes, Shephards, their mixes and more. My fur babies are an Alaskan Klee Kai (Mini Husky), named arrow and a Korat (cat), named Neko. I can’t wait to meet and care for your fur babies!
