Lee, sales associate

Lee was hatched in Ontario but was raised in Hammonds Plains, Nova Scotia. Pets have been a crucial part of their upbringing (from poodles to gerbils). They always love making best friends with animals and adores working with them.

Emmy, Lee’s 4-legged sister, is an adorable Standard Poodle that agrees that Lee is one cool cat…um.. Dog? Lee graduated from SMU with a Bachelor of Commerce yet has always known animals would somehow be a part of their future! Lee is a creative individual, they love drawing and crafts! In their free time, they are an affiliate Twitch streamer!

They love playing video games, Dungeons & Dragons, and other nerdy games! However, most importantly they love DAD JOKES….. Why was the dog stealing shingles?.......He wanted to become a WOOFER!

Sarah, Daycare Supervisor

Born in Vancouver and raised in Halifax!  Sarah is crazy about animals and when she was a kid she would always tell people she would work with them someday. 

Sarah has a digital marketing background but working with dogs is her true passion! 

In her spare time Sarah teaches her cat tricks and does stand up comedy around the city (and is pretty hilarious)!

Sydney, Daycare Attendant

Sydney has been obsessed with animals for as long as she can remember. She has always had all kinds of animals in her home. She loves getting to meet all their quirky personalities.

Sydney recently graduated high school. It has been her dream to work with pets. Outside of work she enjoys spending time with her goofball dog, Cooper. They enjoy going for drives, walks and hikes, or sometimes going for a swim.

Katrina grew up next to the ocean in beautiful Lawrencetown, Nova Scotia. She has been grooming for almost four years right here in HRM. She started out her career with Jollytails when the new Dartmouth location opened, and has been receiving many repeat grooming clients since she joined our team. Katrina is the proud pet mom of Borat the Chihuahua mix, Ty the Min Pin mix, Addy the Yorkie mix, Julep the Yellow Lab and Biggie the Rabbit.

When she isn’t grooming (and snuggling) your dogs, she can be found spending time with her husband, going on all sorts of adventures across the beautiful province.

Ida, Groomer

Ida moved to Nova Scotia in 2018 from St. John’s, Newfoundland where she owned her own grooming shop for over five years. She genuinely loves grooming dogs, and can often be heard singing to them while she works. If you’re looking for a great new groomer, with a fantastic sense of humour, this Newfie is the groomer for you!
