General Admission Grooming

10/21/2026

✨✨Long post and announcement alert!!✨✨

I’m incredibly proud to announce that I am officially an NDGAA Certified Master Groomer (CMG)! ❤️✂️

Earning this certification has been a long-time goal of mine, and it represents years of dedication to my craft, continuing education, and a commitment to providing the best possible care and grooming for every dog who walks through my door.

I also had the privilege of being evaluated by Sue Watson and Judy Hudson, two incredibly talented and respected groomers in our industry. I’m so grateful for their time, expertise, encouragement, and support throughout this process!

A huge thank-you to my amazing clients who trusted me with their dogs for testing and preparation, and to my family for helping make it all possible. This accomplishment wouldn’t have happened without you! ❤️

At General Admission Grooming, I’ve always believed in quality over quantity, and that means continuing to learn, improve, and hold myself to a high standard. I’m proud to bring this achievement back to my little business and the wonderful clients who make it all worthwhile.

Thank you for trusting me with your four-legged family members. I can’t wait to keep doing what I love! 🐾❤️

My grooming system sent reminders for upcoming appointments, but I’m still recovering from surgery! So sorry about that!! Please disregard. I’ll be sending a mass message when I’m back on my feet ❤️

A NYE update!

My surgery has been pushed to Jan 16! Since I caught whatever awful crud is going around and gave it to Adam and Parker right before Christmas, they were unable to perform my surgery in December.

That being said, I’m using the little bit of time between now and then to prep my house and groom my own dogs (Lord knows they need it!) so that I can be relatively stress free during recovery. I’ll keep everyone updated on my progress during the recovery period too ❤️

Due to a complete ACL tear and a partial meniscus tear, I’ll be going into surgery on Dec 18! Dr says it’ll be at *least* 4-6 weeks before I can even attempt to go back to work. That means I’ll be out of commission for at least a month, possibly more. In the meantime, I’m referring all of my clients to either Rachel Collins or Sheena Drummond! They are both wonderfully talented groomers that will take care of your pups like their own ❤️ I’m tagging them in this post, feel free to message them for bookings!

Everyone who is booked until Dec 18th are fine! It’s just the appointments ✨after✨ that will need to be booked with one of the ladies tagged.

Hopefully I’ll be back on the sooner end of the spectrum! Say a prayer for an uneventful surgery and a swift recovery please ❤️

Just a heads up for my clients that are on FB! I was out a few days last week as Parker was sick with the chicken pox. Yep, at 7 months old he got chickenpox from who knows where! He’s much better now, and of course I overbooked myself this week to help catch up. I had also planned to do the same next week. Here’s the kicker…

I fell while mopping my house today. I was wearing Parker and thank God above he didn’t get hurt. I, however, did. The drs are thinking I have torn my left meniscus. An MRI next week will either confirm it or tell us the true culprit. I cannot bear weight on my left leg, I’m on crutches. That being said, I’m going to try and groom regardless. Dr says I shouldn’t, but I’m going to try to finish the week at the very least ❤️

Please bear with me (no pun intended LOL), I’m barely able to walk so I’ll be sitting while grooming. That means my groom times will be significantly longer than usual. I am going to try my hardest to keep from canceling appointments, but I cannot make any promises if I end up not improving next week 😭

My heart is full—what a wonderful first week back! 🐶💖
I was so busy loving on all my sweet pups that I totally forgot to get photos of everyone (classic me 😅). I was just so happy to see all those wagging tails again! Enjoy the few adorable snapshots I did manage to grab.

I’ve got just a few appointments left for the last week of June, and I’m now officially booking for July!
If your pup needs some TLC, now’s the time to grab a spot—I’d love to see you both soon! 💕✂️

I’m back to grooming next Monday!! I am SO excited to see familiar faces and meet new ones!

June is almost completely booked! I have about 3 days left at the end of June up for grabs ❤️

Just as a reminder, I’m grooming on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. Text my business line (252-675-5770) if you have a small dog and you’d like to scoop up an appointment 🥰

Cant wait to see everyone!!

I’m back and blown away!!
The response to my post has been overwhelmingly positive—thank you all so much for the love and support!

My first two weeks back are fully booked, and I’m so excited to see all your sweet pups again. If you’d like to get back on my schedule, please reach out ASAP so I can save your spot!

Now’s also the time to schedule recurring appointments—I’m getting the calendar organized and want to make sure no one misses out.

Text my business line or shoot me a message to get booked! And yes—feel free to share this post! I’m opening up a very limited number of spots for new small dog clients, but I’d love to offer those to friends of current clients first (before i go completely public). I know how hard it is to find the right groomer, so I’d love to welcome a few new faces the warm and fuzzy way!

Can’t wait to catch up with you all!
