Exactly 2 years ago today I started my dog grooming journey! ππ
Hi! My name is Allison Jaenke, and I am the owner of Siloam Springs Pet Grooming! For this 2-year anniversary I thought I would share how exactly I got into dog grooming!
I first started my dog grooming journey by buying 2 goats! Yes, the whole reason I got into dog grooming was because I wanted Nubian dairy goats. I knew I needed a way to pay for them, so I started looking for a job. Then one day my cousin told me that her friend (who was another cousin of mine π) said she was looking for someone to help her bathe dogs at her dog grooming shop. Funny enough my grandma was also going to this same groomer, so I took my grandma's dog to the groomer for her and got a job!
After being a bather for the summer of my junior year of high school and weekends during my senior year. My boss had brought up the idea of me becoming a dog groomer myself. I was nervous at first but every weekend my boss kept teaching me more and more and I was confident enough to do my first dog on May 28th 2024. My first dog was Gracie. An old long-haired chihuahua that belonged to another cousin of mine, and her adopted sibling, Hunter, a golden retriever. From that point on I continued to gain more and more customers and get the amazing clientele I have today! π«ΆπΆβοΈ
Thank you to everyone who has trusted me with their pet over these past 2 years! I pray that there are many more years yet to come! β€οΈ βοΈ
