Full-Time Groomer

Born and raised in Canada, with a lifelong love for animals, Alessia's dream came true when she was gifted her first dog, Luna. Alessia's passion for dogs grew so much that she started taking obedience training courses and learning about dog behaviour any chance she had, by working at dog daycares and boarding facilities in the GTA. Shortly after came her dog, Shadow. Luna and Shadow have been Alessia's biggest influence and inspiration in sparking her curiosity and interest in dog grooming. In 2021, Alessia packed her bags with the two of them and moved to Italy to start her grooming studies and training.

Alessia has had the immense privilege of travelling all over Italy and learning from so many great groomers and professionals. After having studied at various academies and workshops, and working as a full-time groomer for the past three years, Alessia is so looking forward to meeting all of you and can't wait to bring some Italian flavour here at Miam's.
