OWNER: COREY PANTANO-FRYAR
Corey has been grooming pets since 2003. She began her career as a groomer in the corporate sector. Prior experiences include managing, opening new salons, and training new groomers. Following her heart, she transitioned to the non-profit sector with Animal House Rescue/Animal Friends Alliance. Corey played an active role in building Animal House Grooming from the ground up. In 2021, Corey took the opportunity to make the grooming department her own, and Pups on the Poudre was born. Corey and her wife Sally have four amazing kids and three dogs, all adopted from Animal Friends Alliance.
GROOMER: LAVENDER
Lavender has been wtih Pups on the Poudre since early 2023. She began her career working at dog daycares, with a true passion for dog training. She spent years learning all about dog training, and has since refocused her career on dog grooming. She has used her skills in dog training to train her own Service Dog, a golden retriever named Tohru. When she isn’t dog grooming or training, she enjoys watching Anime and dressing like a rainbow fairy every day.
GROOMER: ALENA
In early 2022, Alena joined Pups on the Poudre as a bather and later completed an apprenticeship to become a skilled groomer. Known for her calming presence, she expertly handles nervous dogs and ensures they have a comfortable grooming experience. Alena is also a devoted pet parent to her horse and two dogs. Working at Pups on the Poudre is more than just a profession – it showcases her understanding of the special bond between pets and their owners, making her a valuable team member.
Hanna's Personal Bio:
Ever since I can remember, I have always been around and loved animals. My parents were very influential in teaching me to care for them and how to read their body language. I had the privilege to care for my own pet for 12 years before he passed due to age. I have pet sat for family, friends, and clients for over ten years. In addition to extensive experience watching various dogs and cats over the years, I also have experience caring for horses, farm animals, and reptiles.
I am regularly available for any pet stays or drop-ins Sunday through Saturday, and can provide overnight services for a safer, more relaxed experience for your pet(s), as I will cater my stay to meet their individual needs and energy levels. Additionally, I am experienced in providing pets with medication, including topical, oral, and IV injections if needed. I like to set up meet and greets to go over the pet’s specific routine and to better understand their needs. I look forward to meeting with you and your fur family.
