I recently moved to Cape Cod from Brooklyn, NYC and have been in the market for a groomer for my 2…read morey.o. Goldendoodle pup. Up until I moved here, I had been grooming him myself, but now that I am pregnant, I thought it best to find a professional for Indigo's very first session ever with a groomer.
I must've gotten Angeleka's number from a fellow dog parent at Brewster Dog park, and as soon as I reached out, she got right back to me. I had also reached out to other groomers that were highly recommended, but sadly, all of them were not taking new clients and were already fully booked for the summer. From the get-go and my initial outreach, I was pleasantly surprised at how accessible, flexible, professional and transparent Angeleka was when it came to scheduling and pricing. I had to provide my dog's vaccination record and was provided with an information brochure and signed a waiver. I appreciate how above the board everything was in setting up the appointment.
Being that this would be his first professional grooming, Indigo was a bit nervous and anxious on his first visit. I must say how lovely and kind Angeleka (aka Angie) was, kneeling down to the ground, introducing herself to my dog very slowly and gradually, petting and stroking him and offering him treats. I loved that she took her time in allowing him to calm down and get to know her, and her getting to know us, instead of simply whisking him away to get the job done. I can tell that for this groomer, it's not simply a business or a livelihood, but it's more of a passion, as her love for our pets very much is translated in the way she treats them throughout the whole experience. And she does all of this at a very affordable, competitive price, which is so valuable these days!
I can't thank Angeleka (Angie) enough, because when I got my pup back, I hardly recognized him! He looked so sleek and beautiful, like a show dog, and he smelled DIVINE!!! My husband even commented that Indigo's hair products smell better than mine! She got all the residual mats out of his shaggy coat and gave him such a nice summer puppy cut. I can say that after the appointment, Indigo had a lot more pep in his step and a lot more energy and overall, was so much happier! If our pups are happy and healthy, and well cared for, we'll be happier humans. I appreciate Angeleka so much for her time and beautiful groom of my dog, Indigo! We'll definitely be back again and again!
