Sarah G. has relocated back to the island with her cowboy husband and beautiful little daughter. We are pleased to welcome Sarah G. to our dream team here at DCG. She's currently enrolled in JKL grooming certification where in a short time will be fully certified. Sarah sought out grooming when she was living in Alberta. She managed to get herself some hands on skills to bathing, blow drying and prep work. Since then she's been Leanne's bather/blow drier for many months and is now developing her hands on skills in the salon. This young lady understands herding breeds and their very strong, smart minds. We would like to say this is her specialty as she owns 3 beautiful, working border collies. Sarah is a strong, compassionate, hardworking cowgirl and it shows in her work and her ability to kindly read dogs and their needs. We are excited to see her work and clientele grow in the short upcoming months. Sarah G. will be looking after our current clientele and the odd new clientele. Welcome to the team Sarah! We are so excited to have you.

Kitana has been with DCG since Oct 2024, originally hired as Leanne’s bather but quickly showed interest in taking on the groomer career. She’s been enrolled in JKL grooming for her theory part of the career and is being trained under all of us/primarily Leanne for the hands-on portion. She’s learning incredibly quickly, and her creative eye and attention to detail shows already in her work. Kitana was born and raised in Whistler BC where she and her mom relocated to the island in 2024 (when Whistler ran out of room) In her spare time she loves to explore the island, with no cell reception hiking locations with her boyfriend, Finn and dog Diggity (a reserve mutt that seems to be a border collie x bully breed x) She’s excited to build her clientele here at DCG as she continues to learn the ropes that dog grooming has to offer. She’s currently accepting bath and drys, bath and tidy type dog breeds but soon will be accepting full grooms. Her calm nature, her willingness to take the extra time with dogs who truly need it and the fact that she’s one of the best bathers we’ve ever hired… proves your dog will always be in good hands with Kitana.
