I began my grooming career in 1977 as a Groomer's Apprentice in San Jose, California.
I knew at a very young age that I wanted a career with animals, so this was the perfect
opportunity to pursue my dream. Through the years I have pursued ongoing education
with hopes of raising the standards by which we groom. I am a certified Companion
Animal Hygenist and my specialties are hand scissoring, sporting, breed expert for show
and companion, cat grooming, and custom patterning and dye jobs. I am passionate about
my career and have a goal to make every dog or cat's grooming a safe, loving, and positive experience.

I started my grooming career in San Francisco, and have been styling and pampering little
dogs since 1972. I specialize in small breeds, scissor styling, custom clips and gentle
de-tangling. I love to work with senior dogs, puppies and dogs with special needs. It is a
joy to be part of My Dog's Spot along side such a talented team of professionals who share
my lifelong passion for dogs.

I have been at My Dog's Spot for three years now. I also attend Sierra College. I have always
had a passion for dogs, and prior to grooming, worked with dogs at a kennel. I like grooming
all breeds, but especially like using my creative abilities to do hand-scissor haircuts and
unique styles. I have 3 dogs including a standard poodle, a pomapoo and a shepard mix.

Sarah Holt
I have been grooming for 5 years. My favorite thing about what I do is taking dogs from their
worst condition and bringing out their true beauty. Because of this love, I have a 4 year
old mutt that I rescued named Lily. I also have a pitbull named Otis. I love the friendly
environment at My Dog's Spot and what we do.

Sierra Pena
I have always been an animal lover ever since I was little. I was that little kid who shared
her popsicles with her best friend--her dog. I have had many different breeds in my family
including miniature pinchers and pitbulls. I have also had horses since I was seven and
always knew I wanted a career involving working with animals.
