Owner/ Head Groomer  

 Born and raised in Brazil, Philippe has always had a passion for animals. His love for working with them wasn’t discovered until he attended grooming school and realized that it was the career he wanted to pursue.

As a full-time groomer for over six years, he continues to seek new techniques and improvements to enhance his work. His number one priority for every pet that steps onto his table is the well-being of that animal. In addition to prioritizing their well-being, his commitment to providing the best haircut is always evident in his work.

Owner/General Manager  

  As a dedicated manager and receptionist at Miam's Pets, Carol combines her love for animals with professional expertise, creating a welcoming environment for both pets and their owners. But there's more to Carol than meets the eye—she's not just our manager; she's also a hidden artist. When she's not navigating the ins and outs of our salon, she unleashes her creativity on canvases, adding colorful expressions to the world around her. Dogs and art alike bask in the warmth of Carol's passion, making her an invaluable part of the Miam's Pets team. In addition to her roles as manager, salon owner, and artist, Carol's diverse skill set extends to tattoo artistry. Beyond managing day-to-day operations at Miam's Pets, she channels her passion for creativity into crafting unique designs on skin. 

Full-Time Groomer 

  Kathleen’s first rescue dog, Dobby, introduced her to the world of grooming, and she hasn’t looked back since. He quickly taught her that there is a lot involved in grooming a dog! She decided to receive proper training at her local pet store as a bather and grooming trainee. Since then, her passion for grooming has continued to grow!

With over four years of full-time grooming experience, she loves spending one-on-one time with the dogs in her care. She strives to communicate effectively with each pet owner to ensure their dog achieves the desired look. She wants all her clients to feel that their dogs are loved and that she will care for them as if they were her own.

She looks forward to meeting new dogs and their owners, as well as welcoming back her loyal clients at Miam’s Pets.

Full-Time Groomer 

 Fatima has been grooming for over three years, with a lifelong love for animals that began in childhood. Growing up surrounded by pets, she always knew she wanted to work with animals, and grooming quickly became her true passion. She strives to reflect that passion in every dog she works with. The well-being of each pet is her top priority, and she is dedicated to providing the best care possible. Fatima is constantly honing her skills, collaborating with her team, and expanding her knowledge through seminars and workshops to ensure she delivers the highest level of service. 

Part-Time Groomer 

 Ashley brings over 15 years of grooming experience to the team, along with additional years of experience in veterinary clinics. These combined experiences have led her to attend grooming competitions, where she has placed multiple times! She currently divides her time between dog grooming and serving as a secondary instructor in the Animal Care program at Sheridan College.

Ashley loves her spaniels and sporting dogs. Her own fur baby is Calli, an English Springer Spaniel, and during the summer, they can be found spending weekends up north, swimming, camping, and relaxing by the fire.

Ashley’s most admirable qualities in grooming are her patience and handling skills. With her knowledge, energy, and competitive nature, she is a valuable part of our team. She loves to pamper her clients’ fur babies and takes pride in every dog she grooms.
