In August 2001, Emily started working in the grooming department of a major pet retailer as a brusher/bather. She subsequently obtained her grooming certificate in March 2002. Before achieving her groomer status, she was in search of a career that would be in line with her life-long passion for animals. Grooming opened the door for her, and with 4 ˝ years of experience under her belt and a lot of research, she decided that a mobile pet grooming business was the way to go.
Tracy obtained her MA in Organizational Management in July 2004 and has been the administrative force behind getting Hair off the Dog (and Cats too), LLC set up for business. She spends her time setting appointments, working with clients and handling all administrative and development aspects of the business enabling Emily to focus strictly on grooming her pet clients.
