"Hi! I've been grooming for a little over two years, and although I'm fairly new in the pet industry, I'm here to stay! 

My main focus when grooming is to provide quality results, while creating a positive and relaxing experience for your pet. 

I love working with all kinds of doggies, and if I weren't allergic to cats, I'd love to work with them too. 

I am super excited to meet and care for your fur babies!

"Hola! I'm Beatriz's daughter and manager of Barks & Bubbles.

Growing up in Venezuela with a home full of different types of pets was nothing short of heavenly, and I have to say it has influenced me deeply as a person!

I love all animals, wild and domesticated, but honestly dogs have a special place in my heart.

My favorite small breed is the French Bulldog, and my favorite large breed is the Doberman.

I'm proud to say that at our salon the main priority is to provide the best experience for both you, and your pet; from making the appointment to pick-up, our greatest reward will always be your satisfaction and trust! 

"Hello! I have known all my life that I wanted to work with animals. From daycare to grooming, dogs have been a huge part of my adult life. 

I began dog grooming in 2017, and still keep finding new reasons to love grooming every day. I love getting to work with different breeds, and I love witnessing when my clients grow more confident in me, as this strengthens our bond... 

Groomers really have to know each and every pet that's in their care to ensure the best experience for them, and I will always put my client's comfort first! 

My furry kids are: Opal, Jasper and Balto.

"Hello!  My love for animals started at a young age as I grew up on a farm in Southtern Minnesota. I spent a lot of my childhood and teenage years helping my family care for them!

6 years ago I graduated from Rio grooming school in Hastings, and it has become my passion ever since - this is not just a job for me. 

I enjoy grooming all breeds, and constantly strive to help my customers and their fur babies find a finished look that fits well with their life style or preferences.

I also love doing the occasional creative grooming (like colored Mohawks)!

I am the proud mother of 3 wonderful kittens; Honeybee, Stormy and Snow White. 

"Hola! I'm the proud founder and owner of Barks & Bubbles.
With over 25 years of experience, pet grooming isn’t just my career—it’s my life!

The animal world is my world, and I take great pride in working with dogs and cats of all kinds; especially those in-training, seniors, and pets with behavioral or physical challenges.

I specialize in all types of patterned cuts, creative color work, and hand stripping! Grooming isn’t just a service to me—it’s an art. When I’m in the zone, I feel like a magician bringing out each client's unique beauty.

At our salon your pet is in expert loving hands. Let us give them the spa day they deserve!"

"Hello!  I love grooming all different kinds of dogs, anywhere from wiggly 8-week old puppies to grumpy 18-year old doggies. 

One of my favorite things to do are patterned haircuts - since bringing out the best of each individual breed is what makes me love my job. 

I am a very relaxed groomer, and I thrive on making my clients feel special when they are in my care. 

I have been grooming for around 15 years, and still enjoy learning new things every day.  

It is my purpose to give your companion the chance to look and feel their best! 

"Hey there! I’m a professional dog groomer with 5 years of experience and a heart full of love for all dogs—big, small, fluffy, scruffy, and even the ones who need a little extra patience and care. I truly enjoy working with pups that others might hesitate to take on, and there’s nothing more rewarding than helping them feel safe, seen, and stylish. 

Grooming is my creative outlet, and I love transforming each dog into the best version of themselves, whether it’s a simple clean-up or a bold, fun style. 

I’m also a big believer in always learning, so I’m constantly expanding my skills and staying up to date with the latest grooming techniques to give every pup the best care possible.

I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend!"
