Courtney Scott began her grooming career in 1999 as a bather/groomer and went on to spend 23 years at the same salon. With previous experience at the SPCA, she knew early on that she wanted a lifelong career working with dogs and cats.

Courtney has a soft spot for Schnauzers and Shih Tzus, and she specializes in caring for anxious and senior dogs. Her grooming philosophy is simple but powerful: meet each dog where they are and make their time in the salon as positive as possible. One of her greatest joys is seeing anxious pups grow comfortable and excited to visit her.

At home, Courtney shares her life with Meena, a German Shepherd, two cats named Bijou and Shadow, and about 50 chickens. A fun fact: when she retires from grooming, she dreams of diving into the world of cat shows.
