FAQs
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
Honestly I got a job working at PetCo. It took me some time to really get into the grooming the way I wanted to but after a few years and practice daily I improved. I was pretty bad at first.

****If I have not responded to you IT IS NOT PERSONAL. I have over 200 inquiries and I am working diligently to reach out to all of you personally. Thank you. ***
Hey ! My name is Adam. I have been grooming for 10 years total and was a grooming salon manager for a Petco location for 2 years. After obtaining a career within my educational field of Biology, I have made the decision to continue grooming as it was a skill that I developed and grew to be passionate for.
I do NOT groom in a van. After careful consideration I believe clients dogs experience more of an overwhelming experience when being groomed in an area many other dog have been.
I groom most of my clients dogs in their homes where the pups are most comfortable. I am traveling from Glen Mills PA so I try to schedule accordingly.
Some things I do different than others:
-I do not kennel your dog at any point during their appointment.
-Very patient with all dogs
-Standard and breed specific grooms.
-Affordable prices
-All baths and grooms come with, nail trim, and a spritz of doggy smell good.

Talent is very hard to come by these days, but he is the truth! You can tell he takes pride in his work & truly cares about the pets he grooms. I would highly recommend him & I look forward to booking with him again!

I have 3 Yorkie’s and it’s hard to get them all together at the same time to be groomed. Coming to my house is a huge plus. Not only did Adam come to my house my 3 doggies look amazing. One was very matted and he looks like a new dog. I’ve already scheduled my next appointment

Having our dog bathed & groomed at home was a great experience for us and our dog, Rufus. Adam is a pro--a very nice young man who obviously loves his job. We were very pleased with the results...a stress-free experience for all at a very reasonable price. We are so glad we found Adam & his service.

We own a very sensitive standard poodle of a senior age. Adam did a very good job of listening to what our dog cannot handle as far as grooming goes and the end result was a perfectly groomed happy poodle.
