Our Team
Heather
“Hi, I’m Heather! I was inspired to start Heather’s Mobile Pet Salon by my sweet, sixteen-year-old cat Punky Brewster and my love of animals in general. I’ve been pampering pets in the grooming industry for over 20 years, and every day I’m reminded I chose the right career path. Caring for animals is more than my job… it’s my passion!”
Darby
“Hi, I’m Darby the friendly Operations Manager here. Animals have always been a part of my family. I grew up craving any knowledge on how to help a variety of critters live their best lives. Now, as a retired pet groomer, my passion lies in helping others learn about and enjoy their pets as much as possible. I’m currently a mom of 3 big hairy dogs, 3 snakes, and a handful of two legged kids.”
Chase
“Hi, my name is Chase! I have been a life-long lover of all animals. A proud parent of Jody, a Terrier/Shih Tzu cross I rescued, and Peanut and Chip our other two wonderful house companions. I apprenticed under seasoned groomers for two years while at Heathers Mobile Pet Salon and I take pride in grooming every one of our salon visitors with gentle, loving hands.”
Zaydili
“My name is Zaydili. Pets and grooming are my passion. I specialize in cat and dog care with over 12 years of experience in both pet stores and in mobile grooming and am CPR certified for dogs and cats. I love what I do and love caring for senior dogs and helping in pet shelters. I also enjoy teaching newer groomers.”
Alexis M
“My name is Alexis, and I am so excited to be a part of Heather’s team. I started working with animals at age 17 and fell in love with it. I was taught grooming about 8 years ago and have greatly enjoyed the friendships I have made with pets, clients and coworkers. I have had so much fun learning the ins and outs of mobile grooming and can’t wait to meet you and your pet.”
Shane
“My name is Shane, and my passion for animals has been with me since childhood. In 2006, I attended the Virginia School of Pet Grooming, marking the beginning of my grooming journey. Working with diverse breeds brings me immense joy, but I have a particular fondness for grooming Shih Tzus, Golden Retrievers, and Doodles. When not working I spend my time with my family and three rescue dogs.”
Pamela
“Hello my name is Pamela Trout. I have been grooming now for 25 years. I have always had a love for animals ever since I was a little girl. However, I actually started out cutting hair for my family when I was in my early teens. My family and I thought that I would eventually end up in cosmetology school. God had a different plan. I attended the south Texas school of Pet styling in August of 1999. The rest is history. I love what I do and I can’t wait to groom your fur baby!”
Deb
“My name is Deb and I’m Heather’s mom. I’m responsible for ordering and distributing inventory, social media, and making sure each van has clean towels for the day. I love anything corgi related and love seeing all the pictures of the cute dogs we get to take care of!”
Tuesday
“Hi my name is Tuesday, I’ve been working with pets for 3 years now but I’ve always been an animal lover. I always knew I would work with animals even when I was a little kid, I loved being around animals. I started grooming because of my own pets, after I decided I enjoyed it I made a profession out of it and it’s stuck ever since. I’ve been learning among people with 15+ years experience for different techniques and ways of viewing grooms. I love being able to make a pet parent smile when they see their freshly groomed pup.”
Victoria
“My name is Victoria. I decided to get into grooming because all my life I have always loved animals and I knew I wanted to work in the animal field. Having no pets in the house, I use my job to compensate and spoil all animals I come across. I just recently graduated from Heather’s and have been grooming on my own for about a month. I am constantly trying to work on getting better. My favorite breed is probably the Corgi because my personality resembles theirs and they have really cute butts :-).”
Kristal
“My name is Kristal Gonzales, my mother always told me my love for animals started in the womb!! One of my hobbies is taking pictures and capturing precious moments during and after grooming when they are really feeling themselves. I could not see myself doing anything else in life.”
Vanessa
“My name is Vanessa, I’ve been grooming for about 6 years now, and have experience in working with animals of all kinds ( my favorite, livestock ) for about 12 years. I’m grateful to be able to enjoy my work days spending time and caring for your furbabies, giving them a safe space to get pampered!”
