Hi, I'm Natalie
Professional Dog Handler & Groomer
I've been in love with dogs since 2005, when I adopted my first Pit bull puppy, Cyrus. Since then, I have been an advocate for the breed, rescuing, fostering and rehoming them.
​
Art has always been my passion. Up until 2022, only canvas had been my medium. My love of animals, calm demeanour, patience, and artistic eye has made me excel quickly as a dog groomer.
"If you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life."
​When I am not working, I enjoy painting and spending time with my family, which consists of one teenager, an American Staffordshire Terrier, and a kitten. I would be honoured to meet you and your furry family members.
