I wanted to take a minute to share a little update from me and Absolute Pawfection. ❤️🐾
Lately, I’ve had to turn away new clients, as well as clients who haven’t been in to see me within the past year. I truly hate having to say no to anyone, and I want you to know it’s never because I don’t appreciate your business or wouldn’t love to have your pets in my salon.
Right now, it’s just Melinda and me, and we are working as hard as we can and putting in as many hours as possible. I’m incredibly thankful to be this busy, but there are only so many hours in the day, and I never want to overbook myself to the point that the quality of care I give your dogs suffers.
I’ve also made the difficult decision to stop accepting cats for grooming at this time. With our dog schedule being as busy as it is, the salon can have multiple dogs coming and going throughout the day. Many cats aren’t used to being around dogs, and the last thing I want is for a cat to feel scared, stressed, or uncomfortable while they’re here. Their comfort and safety will always come before squeezing another appointment into my schedule.
I would LOVE to be able to open my books again and welcome more of you. If I’m able to find and hire another experienced groomer who is the right fit for our little salon, it would give us the opportunity to start accepting more clients again. 🤞🐾
For now, I just ask for a little patience and understanding when I have to say that I don’t have an appointment available. Believe me, I wish I could take care of everyone!
Melinda and I are beyond grateful for how busy you keep us and for the trust you put in us to care for your dogs. I truly have some of the most wonderful clients, and your continued support of my small business means more to me than I can ever put into words. ❤️
Thank you for understanding, supporting us, and keeping Absolute Pawfection so incredibly busy.
Shelbie & Melinda 🐾❤️
