Hello! My name is Laci I am the proud owner of Dog-a-holick. We've been in Business since 2012.

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 am Anna. I have always had an affinity for animals, especially dogs. I have a chihuahua, Chico, and 2 long hair cats, Pachi and Mimzy. My career with dogs began at a daycare/training facility, then I became a bather at a corporate salon and I am looking forward to my grooming career here at Dog-a-holick. When not at work I enjoy learning new skills, hobbies, and playing video games with my friends

Hi, my name is Sarah and I am lucky to be the newest member of Dog-a-holick's wonderful team. 

I have an Alaskan kleekai named Stella who is my world! I have been grooming for 8 years. I have a background in animal science/medicine.  However, I decided I could best express my love and gratitude for companion animals through grooming. Making sure they are clean and well-groomed is the foundation of a dog's health and all-around wellness! 

I love Asian fusion and creative grooming.  I am well-versed in breed standards and traditional cuts as well. I'm very much looking forward to meeting all the wonderful people and dog's that choose Dog-a-holick for their pet's grooming needs.
