Fall Photo Dump!! 🍁 🎃
Sorry we have been slacking 😢
UPDATE FROM REYANN:
🐾❤️ A little update for my grooming family! My surgery is done, and I’m home recovering. 🩷 I’m not sure how long I’ll be out, but I’ll keep everyone updated as I know more. Thank you all so much for your patience, love, and understanding! Give your fur babies some extra love from me! 🐶🐾💕
UPDATE FROM RACHEL:
💙 A little update…
I was hopeful that my SI joint injection would bring some much-needed relief, but unfortunately, I’ve experienced very little improvement. 😔 For now, I’m continuing to work a limited schedule and doing the best I can while navigating this ongoing pain. Moving forward, I may need to make some permanent changes to my schedule and the way I do things. Thank you all so much for your patience, kindness, and continued support. It truly means more than you know! ❤️🐾
Please look for upcoming events and announcement posts. 🐶🎃👻🎅

🐾 A Little Client Update for RACHELS clients ❤️

I wanted to take a moment to be honest with all of our wonderful clients about what’s been going on behind the scenes.

I’m currently dealing with a severe SI joint injury. The SI joint is where the spine and pelvis connect, and when it’s injured, it can cause significant pain and stiffness and make standing, bending, twisting, lifting, and working for long periods much more difficult.

Unfortunately, I’ve had a bit of a setback with my grooming capabilities. Some days I simply move slower than I normally would, and some of the larger dogs that I previously had help with may take me a little longer to groom.

I also no longer have help, as Reyann is now having surgery and I had let Meg go when I brought on Reyann. As much as I would love to lighten my schedule while I recover, the reality is that I simply cannot afford to reduce my income and also take on the expense of an employee.

Because of this, you may notice some changes with scheduling and availability. I’m currently booking approximately 4–6 weeks out, and some rebooks may need to be a little more flexible with their usual grooming routine. That might mean adjusting a regular appointment date or allowing a little more time between appointments while I work through this.

Please know that I’m doing everything I can to continue providing the quality care your dogs deserve while also listening to my body and trying to recover.

I truly appreciate your patience, understanding, flexibility, and continued support more than you know. ❤️

Thank you for sticking with us through this little bump in the road. 🐾

🐾 A Little Business Update from REYANN for My Wonderful Clients 🐾

I unfortunately have some unexpected news to share. I will be needing back surgery in the near future. I am currently waiting to hear the exact surgery date, which I should know by Friday. I was told to expect surgery within approximately a week to 10 days.

Until surgery, I will continue grooming as I am physically able to and as tolerated.

However, once my surgery takes place, I will need to take some time away to recover. I know for certain that I will be out for at least a month, but at this point, I’m not sure exactly how long my recovery will take.
Because I don't want to schedule appointments that I may later have to cancel or reschedule, I will unfortunately need to put a hold on all future appointments until I have a better idea of my recovery timeline.

I know this may be an inconvenience, and I truly appreciate your patience, understanding, and support during this unexpected time.

My clients and your pups mean so much to me, and I will keep everyone updated as soon as I know more.
Thank you all for your understanding and for allowing me the time I need to heal. 🐾❤️

I’ll post another update as soon as I have my surgery date and know more about my recovery.

🐾 A Little Update From Rachel’s Rascals ❤️

We wanted to take a moment to share an important update with all of our clients.

As many of you may know, both Rachel and Reyann have been dealing with back injuries, and we’ve realized that we need to be more mindful of the wear and tear that comes with grooming, long hours on our feet, and the physical demands of this job. We truly love what we do and absolutely love working with all of your pups, but we also need to make sure we’re taking care of ourselves so we can continue doing what we love long-term. ❤️

For the time being, Reyann will be reducing her grooming hours so she can better tolerate the amount of standing and physical activity involved with grooming. She will still be in the shop when and if she feels up to it, but her availability may vary as she focuses on healing and recovery.

We may also need to make some adjustments to already scheduled appointments from time to time in order to accommodate our recovery and what our bodies can realistically handle. We truly appreciate everyone’s patience, understanding, and flexibility as we navigate this.

We also want to let everyone know that Rachel will be slowly phasing out Thursdays beginning with the new year. Anyone who currently has appointments scheduled on Thursdays is welcome to reach out so we can discuss your availability and what your future schedule may look like.

Rachel’s current plan moving forward is to eliminate Thursdays and work toward a schedule of:

🐾 Tuesday & Wednesday: 8 AM – 7 PM
🐾 Friday: 8 AM – 3 PM
🐾 Saturday: 8 AM – 3 PM

This schedule is being created with the goal of making our business more sustainable while allowing us to take better care of ourselves and avoid the burnout and physical wear and tear that can come with trying to do too much for too long.

Unfortunately, we didn’t expect any of this to happen, and we know that some of these changes may mean that newer clients, or clients whose schedules no longer fit our availability, may have to find another groomer. We are truly sorry for putting anyone in that position. Please know that these decisions are not being made lightly. ❤️

We will also be updating our active client list. Clients who have not been to the shop since January will no longer be considered active clients. This will allow us to better manage our current clientele and our more limited availability moving forward.

We are also going to be putting a pause on accepting new clients while we figure out what our bodies can handle and establish a schedule that is realistic and sustainable for both of us.

This has been a difficult adjustment because we genuinely love our clients, our business, and every single pup who walks through our doors. 🐶❤️ We are incredibly grateful for everyone who has supported Rachel’s Rascals and for your continued patience, understanding, and flexibility while we work through these changes.

Our hope is that by slowing down, being more intentional with our schedules, and taking care of ourselves now, we’ll be able to continue doing what we love for many years to come.

Thank you for sticking with us and for understanding that sometimes taking care of the people behind the grooming table is necessary, too. ❤️🐾

** UPDATE FROM REYANN**

I wanted to take a moment to update all of my wonderful clients about what’s been going on. Unfortunately, I recently suffered a pretty severe back injury, and I have been taken out of work by my doctor through September 14th.

Right now, I’m having significant difficulty walking and standing for extended periods of time, which obviously makes it impossible for me to safely and properly do what I love — taking care of your pups. 🐾

Because of this, I am currently rescheduling all appointments booked through September 14th. I truly apologize for the inconvenience and for having to change your appointments. I know how important it is to keep your pups on their grooming schedules, and I promise that I don't take rescheduling on you lightly.

To every client who has been patient, understanding, checking in on me, or simply sending a kind message — thank you. 🐶🐾✂️

I’m doing everything I can to get better and get back to doing what I love. Thank you for sticking with me through this unexpected bump in the road. I can’t wait until I’m healthy enough to be back where I belong. ♥️

With love, Reyann 🐾
