Whether your fur baby needs a bath, haircut or nail trim, Shannon’s Grooming is the place to go.

Shannon Croskrey and her husband Matthew opened their business a year ago, and the parade of dogs is endless six days a week.

“I have always known I wanted to work with animals,” said Shannon, who takes care of the grooming, while Matthew handles the day-to-day business operations. “We take care of all sizes and all breeds. We are always really busy. We are booked out 2-3 weeks in advance. We have a large and loyal client base.”

Shannon got her start in grooming as a hairdresser, but soon realized that wasn’t her passion. She started working with a dog groomer, and fell in love with the work. She worked three years at The Classy Critter in Pasco before opening her own business.

“Cosmetology school has come in handy in this business,” Shannon said.

Shannon’s Grooming does offer boarding, but limits it to one or two animals at a time.
