Welcome to Fur Envy Pet Grooming


I’ve always had a deep love for animals. Growing up, I was the kid who could never walk past a stray without stopping to say hello. Whether they were big or small, furry or not-so-furry, I always felt a special connection to animals. This love eventually led me to work with them professionally.

At just 13, I was called to help out at our local pet store, which turned out to be the perfect introduction to the professional side of the animal world. Over the years, I became involved in dog sports, showing Golden Retrievers in conformation events around Southern Ontario. After a long hiatus, I stepped back into the ring and had the pleasure of handling our youngest Pug to his CKC Championship. Next was our Presa Canario, our loyal shop guardian, who recently received her UKC Champion title. 

While living in the country, we also spent time raising Flemish Giant rabbits, and was lucky enough to produce multiple Best of Breed winners, Reserve in Show champions, and even a Best in Show champion. The rabbits were a joy to have around, and we’ve kept online everything we’ve shared of them, viewable on Instagram @forestviewgiants

After the pandemic brought us back to Orangeville, I transitioned from being a part-time photographer (specializing in family and newborns) to focusing on pet photography. Not long after, I entered an international competition, and was honoured to receive two awards for my work.

Eventually I joined an established pet salon as a bather. What started as a small side job, quickly became my new passion. I was excited to be offered an apprenticeship to become a professional groomer, and since completing my training, I’ve continued to expand my skills and knowledge to ensure every pet gets the best care possible. Pet photography still holds a special place in my heart, and I offer those services on a limited basis.
