Bob has been grooming pets for 46 years, the first 30 of those in New York. While there are many people bathing and clipping dogs and cats, it is rare to find someone with the breadth of training and experience he possesses. With his mentor, Lou Noli (groomer and breeder of US and Canadian AKC champion Collies and Pomeranians), he regularly attended competitions throughout the Northeast to master breed standards. For the last 16 years he has brought that knowledge to the pets of Jacksonville. His favorite part of grooming is working with pets and how each day brings something unique, “Each animal and each cut is different.” Teaching his clients how to effectively care for their fur babies is another of his passions. A great example is how he encourages everyone to take advantage of his free puppy visits (inquire for details). Through Bob's guidance, you can learn how to maintain your pet’s hygiene and appearance, in simple, effective and stress-free ways. During these visits, puppies not only learn to tolerate their care, but to look forward to their visits. Bob's style and philosophy fit perfectly with our mission to enhance the human-animal bond and empower our pet-parents to be the best possible caretakers for their fur-babies.
