Hello, I'm Lisa, one of the groomers at 4 Paws with 19 years of grooming experience. My journey began when I helped a friend by bathing dogs during her busy holiday season. Within a week, I was trimming down dogs, and I quickly discovered my passion for grooming. It was clear to me that this was the career path I wanted to pursue. My experience in the animal field goes beyond grooming; I have also worked as a veterinary technician, caring for a diverse range of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles. When I'm not at work making the pups look fabulous, I enjoy spending time at home with my cat and close friends, or honing my skills in stained glass art.

Hey there! I’m Rogelyn. I made the leap from the Philippines to the United States back in 2014, but my passion for animals—especially dogs—has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve been lucky enough to care for and own a variety of dog and cat breeds, and I even ran my own pet store in the Philippines for 15 years. Working with animals truly fills my heart with joy! I love grooming dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages. I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs, and I always prioritize their comfort and relaxation. Helping puppies develop confidence and positive experiences during grooming is also something I cherish. For me, grooming goes beyond just looks; it’s all about building trust, showing patience, and spreading compassion. Connecting meaningfully with pets and their owners is super important to me. With over a decade of customer service experience, I strive to create a warm and supportive environment for every client who walks through my door.
