Hello! My name is Laci I am the proud owner of Dog-a-holick.

I grew up in Idaho but first came to Maine to work in 1998. I spent a lot of time traveling before focusing on what I am passionate about: dogs. 

I worked at a Vet’s office in “the County” for 1 year before we were relocated to Western NY for my boyfriend’s job. While in NY I worked at the largest animal shelter in the greater Rochester area, as well as one of the largest K9 campuses in the Finger Lakes. While at those jobs I attended two different schools and became a certified dog groomer, and graduated with my business degree. 

Now that we’re back in Maine, I’m excited to realize my long-time goal of owning my own grooming salon. Dogaholick is the realization of a dream and I truly am a Dogaholick!

Hi, I’m Casey I always knew I wanted to work with animals even from a really young age. I liked learning about them and wanted to do something more; grooming was brought to my attention after I graduated high school.  After graduating from A+ Pet Grooming Academy, I now get the chance to continue to learn about grooming and get to work with dogs of all shapes and sizes, and I couldn’t be happier.

My name is Brie and I am new to Maine and happy to be here! I look forward to meeting & caring for your fur babies. My favorite dogs are brachycephalic (snort!) and senior dogs. I think the best part of grooming is getting to see pet parents’ faces light up when they see their freshly groomed pet. When not at work I enjoy hiking and spending time with her boyfriend, orange polydactyl cat Cheeto, cockatiel Gizzy, and fat goldfish Frankenweenie.
