Hi! My name is Bethani, I have been a groomer for six years, and have been competing for about a year and a half. I am from Sioux Falls, South Dakota. I have five animals of my own at home: a Great Dane, Bedlington terrier, long-haired cat, bearded dragon and a leopard gecko. My sponsor is the amazing Dennis and Tonya Brooks at Sharp Edges in Decatur, Illinois. When I’m not grooming, which is rare some days, I love to knit and crochet.
Anneli Burke
Hi, my name is Anneli and I’m a dog groomer in Pittsburgh PA! I’ve been grooming for about three years and own a small salon with a Small But Mighty team. I love competing, making big poofy Asian fusion muzzles, and clean poodle faces. My sponsor is Dave's Real Sharp Scissor and Clipper Blade Sharpening ran by David Garza, who’s honestly probably the raddest of the GSH sharpeners (sorry, guys!). I have too many dogs for hobbies - unless acquiring more dogs counts as a hobby.

Kayla Scott
Hello! My name is Kayla, and I am a professional dog groomer based in Waco, Texas. I have over 5 years of experience in the grooming industry, with a specialization in everyday pet trims and Doodles. I started my career in corporate and now am the proud owner of a one-on-one salon called The Groomery. When I’m not grooming in the salon, you can find me learning new skills and competing in grooming competitions. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and pets, watching a good show on TV and cooking new dishes. I also have a passion for teaching other dog groomers how to elevate their everyday pet trims and motivating others to continue their education in the industry. I am proud to be sponsored by Fort Worth Shaver / Groomer Supply House, which provides me with the highest quality tools and products to ensure the best results.
Hannah Lovelace
Hi my name is Hannah, I work in North Dallas. I have been grooming for about three years now and I honestly cannot see myself doing anything else for the rest of my life. I get such joy and satisfaction out of working with our furry legged friends. I love to continue my education by attending seminars pet expos etc. because let’s be honest as a groomer there’s always something new we can learn from. My sponsor is Sharpen On Site or the groomerstoolbox.com and if I’m not spending my time at shows, grooming, or seminars you can usually find me on my yoga mat
