(Me with Sonic ^ and ^ Olive)
My name is Alina and I am the owner and only groomer at Alina's Pet Parlour! I have been working with animals since I was 13 years old. I started out volunteering at Animal Welfare League. I was hired there at age 15, and continued to work there until age 21.
I have also worked at several pet stores & grooming shops. I started grooming school in the summer of 2005. I was given 500 hours of hands on training and graduated in June of 2006. I continued my training with a very experienced groomer at her shop, where I worked for 2 years. I was lucky to have found a good groomer willing to help me expand my knowledge of grooming.
After grooming at a doggy daycare for 2 years, I opened my own shop in July of 2008. I love my job, and I love spending time with the dogs! I am very driven and I love learning anything I can about grooming & animals.
