"Animals have always been my passion and not many people can say that they are living their child-hood dream, doing what they love.. but I'm lucky enough to be one of the few. I love being creative, keeping the pets comfortable and putting smiles on owners faces at 'pick-up'. But with that being said I will not push for a perfect haircut if it means making the animal uncomfortable and that's something I instill in my mentees. I believe the next generation is so precious and to be able to help them find a career path they connect with animals and humans- its just priceless." After high-school, I attended SUNY Cobleskill and received a Bachelor’s Degree in Animal Science with a Concentration in Canine Studies in 2014. Upon graduating, I attended the American Academy of Pet Grooming and became a certified Pet Groomer. In the fall of 2017, with the support of my husband and family we opened up BYOP Grooming. There is always room for learning and growth within any profession. Throughout the years, I have attended many continuing education courses and always encourage my staff to attend with me so we can learn together."

"Chief Executive Manager of HR"
"Blanche is the Head Director of the Shop. She checks on all of the staff throughout the day to make sure they are un-efficiently working and giving her as much attention as possible. She is great at being in the way of everyone because of her love for affection. She was bred for this job and takes it very seriously. During her days off she loves to hangout with her brothers and get pampered. She also enjoys obedience classes, and is currently dabbling in AKC Conformation Showing and being an aspiring Grooming Competition Model."

Gianna - Pet Stylist
"THe DoODLe pRO"
“I have always been around animals my entire life from pets, to volunteering at shelters and my connection with animals always was strong. I always wanted to make my career animal based. I have been in the dog industry for years and I started off as a bather for a groomer in NJ and fell in love with the trade. Since then I came to BYOP and worked my way up. Now I love going to grooming seminars, where I became certified in many different areas of grooming. I might not be as fast as the seasoned groomers but I can promise you a beautiful groom at the end of your pup's visit!”

"tHE bOSS of all BOSSes"
“I've always had a passion working with animals since I was young. I love working at BYOP and I love everything about it, from the amazing clients, pets, co workers and my boss! BYOP is my second home, and even though I am almost always there, you can find me exploring the outdoors with my Dachshund Benny.”

"SHiHTzu KNot"
"With over 10 years of experience, I can't even remember how it all started, but what I do know is I LOVE IT! I have done a little bit of everything- I've worked on a grooming truck, in a salon with multiple groomers and by myself. I've met and groomed so many dogs in my career, i consider myself very lucky. My favorite dog breed to groom has to be ShihTzus, theres something about them that just always make me smile."
Emily - Jr Stylist
"DoGGY HAirDrESSer"
"I went to school to be a hairdresser..and then I found BYOP and realized that I love working with dogs, way more than humans.. Sorry Ladies! I started out as a bather and learned everything there was about bathing and prepping dogs to be ready for the groomers. I recently adopted my very own mini poodle named Troy and started to practice what I learned during work with my new bestfriend. The best part of this job is there is always something to learn, and I continue to learn more every day by the seasoned groomers who work around me."

"My journey as a groomer began with a great love for animals. I have groomed in many countries and have learned many different techniques during my journey. I love a perfect haircut and I love making dogs beautiful. Spitz and Bichons are my favorite dog breeds to groom."
Ann - Receptionist
"nOT JUSt REcePtiON"
"I have always been an animal lover since I was young. I was working in an office job when my sister asked me to help bathe dogs at her salon.. Since then I was sold- I wanted to be a dog groomer! 15 years later I am now working at BYOP as a receptionist. With my years experience animal rescue and in grooming I have learned so much about animal's health, breeds, hair types- I know I can clearly communicate with pet parents on how they would like their pets hair styled."
