Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: *please note: I am an in-home grooming service* Hi, I'm Erin! I've spent over 10 years in a few different grooming salons, and during that time I noticed some practices I'd do differently. The word "Irie" comes from reggae music and means something "nice, good, or pleasing," and I strive to make sure your dogs have the most "Irie" grooming experience possible in my care! I opened Irie Gentle Grooming in 2020 in order to help dogs who are severely nervous during grooming, dogs who are older, deaf, blind or otherwise limited in mobility. My services are great for humans with limited mobility as well, I bring everything I need except for the bath/tub and a towel. You don't even need to leave the house! Also great for those working from home, or busy pet parents who simply lack the time to take their pup in and wait for several hours until they can be picked up. What makes Irie different is my gentle, patient, and loving one-on-one approach that most grooming salons don't have the capability or time to provide. I take pride in my patient approach and you would be surprised that your dog is significantly less stressed than a regular salon with kenneling, other dogs and distractions. I can't wait to meet you and your pets! Hablo Español.

Erin did a fantastic job grooming my Corgi. She was very gentle with my dog, arrived on time, and charged a reasonable price. I would highly recommend!

Erin is a straight up gem and hero when we needed her. Responsive and open to working with our pup who was a bit of a project, and did such a great job with him - just in our backyard! Will 💯 absolutely be working with her again, and so happy she was able to get us on her schedule super quickly. Our dog had no issues being groomed by her and he can be a handful sometimes, so can't recommend her enough.

Details: Extra large (70+ lbs) • Thick, fluffy double-coat • 10 years or older • Anxiety • Other special temperaments • 4 - 6 months ago • Dematting • De-shedding treatment • Mobile grooming in home • No additional dogs

Erin did a wonderful job grooming my anxious dog. He felt super comfortable with her after a short amount of time, and thoroughly enjoyed his bath. Erin was prompt, efficient, and helpful - would definitely recommend Irie Gentle Grooming for a seamless mobile grooming experience. Thank you, and see you next time!
