The OSP Team

Aj

My name is Aj, I’ve been grooming for over 5 years and I’ve always had a passion for working with dogs. I attended W.B Saul High school where I had hands-on experience with all types of animals from horses, cows, and sheep to hamsters, guinea pigs and rabbits, and everything in between! I love animals of all sizes but I’ve always had a special bond with dogs. I always believe in doing what’s best for your dogs and treating them as if they were my own. I take pride in my work and enjoy making pets and pet parents happy! In my spare time, I love playing basketball, video games, and spending time with family and friends. I’m also a huge fan of the Sixers, Eagles, and Phillies.

Angie

I’m Angie, I have worked with dogs and cats for more than 15 years as a veterinarian in my country of origin, Colombia, and as an Auxiliary Veterinary at Banfield Hospital. A year ago I became part of the Oh so pretty family and it has been a Fabulous experience; I have grown a lot professionally. Dawn and the whole team have been good teachers and patient with my accent and my particular way of speaking. Me being a groomer found the perfect balance between my profession, my passion (animal welfare), and my priorities (my family). I do my job with responsibility, love, and respect for each furry baby and their owners. I love all breeds, I enjoy the connection and good vibes that any dog transmits to me. I can’t wait to meet you and your dog!

Ben

My name is Ben and I currently work at Oh So Pretty Pet Spa. I have been grooming dogs for 7 years and I use to work with Joo Ming Lee which is the only Asian judge in The International Dog Show. I can do most of the terrier group breed standard grooms. After work, I like to record songs, dance, and hang out with friends.

Carey

Hey! My name is Carey, I am a groomer at Oh So Pretty.  I’ve known I wanted to work with dogs since I could talk, and have been beyond grateful to have this dream come true!  I have 2 of my own little fur-babies.  My Calico Cat, Hazel, and my Australian Cattle mix, Darcy.  I have been a Pet Stylist since 2018 and have also had experience in Veterinary Science and Equestrian Grooming.  Pampering your loved ones is where my heart is!  Some of my favorite breeds are Border Collie, Australian Shepherd, Shih Tzu and Maltipoo!  I especially love helping to gain trust and comfort in the ones that are a bit more nervous about spa days!  Whether your pup is an extravert or introvert, you can trust that I will treat them as if they are family and have them feel stunning in their new look!

Emily

Hi, I’m Emily and I have always loved animals and have worked in both the grooming and veterinary business. The best part of grooming for me is developing positive relationships with clients and pets. I always look forward to grooming my request clients! I am also an artist! My specialties are sports art and pet portraits. You’ll often find me talking about the Phillies in the shop! My favorite dog breeds to groom are golden retrievers and poodle mixes.

Hannah

Hi!  My name is Hannah.  I am a groomer at Oh So Pretty!  I haven’t worked with dogs my whole life, but I love them and animals in general.  I have three dogs, a basset hound, yellow lab, and cockalier (Cavalier & cocker spaniel mix).  Not only do I have some pups, but I also have a cat, rabbit and chinchilla too!  I love grooming dogs from extra big to bite size, lol!  Whenever grooming a dog I treat them like my own with love, care and lots of playtime :).  I look forward to grooming your dogs!

Jess

My name is Jessica but my clients call me Jess. I have been grooming for 13 years in Montgomery county and Philadelphia as well. I’ve been in the industry for 15 years becoming a bather during my college years. I have dabbled in the corporate world but my heart is and has always been with the animals. I’m so excited to be back working for Dawn and becoming a part of the team as of April 2022. I have three crazy kitties and one very active toddler! A mother first so all my fur clients automatically become my babies. When I’m not making your furbabies oh so pretty I love spending time with my little family exploring parks and nature sanctuaries as well as little city gems throughout Philadelphia. If you’re wondering I will never reveal a favorite breed since I love them all the same. My love language is coffee and sassy rollypollys on my table. I believe in gentle grooming and feel incredibly lucky I am able to do what I love every day.

Lily

Hey there! I’m Lily and can’t wait to groom your dogs! Since elementary school, I have always been interested in animals. My family always had pets at home and grooming our dogs is what got me thinking about professional grooming. I worked and trained at Petco in late 2020. The corporate scene wasn’t my thing and I eventually found my way to Oh So Pretty and it was the best decision I’ve ever made!

I always practice patience and kindness with my clients’ dogs. When they are under our roof we want them to feel that this is their home away from home. Also, how awesome is it that they get to socialize and play as a reward for their time and effort!?

My favorite dogs to groom are definitely poodles and doodles, but every breed has a special place in my heart and will still look Oh So Pretty!

Mercy

I have been working with animals professionally for 14+ years. I have been with Oh So Pretty since 2016 and love it here! When I’m not grooming I’m spending time with my three kids.

Sharon

Hi Everyone! My name is Sharon. I knew I wanted to work with animals since the sixth grade. As a high schooler, I aced in biology, which lead me to attend Harcum College to major in Veterinary Technology. While in college I worked as a Vet Tech in an animal hospital, where I learned the art of cat grooming. After being a Vet Tech for two years I realized that it was not for me. That’s when I entered the world of grooming. I started out as a bather at PetSmart in 2002. A year and a half later I entered grooming school as the Class of 2004. Eventually, I became a salon manager at PetSmart and later at Petco. I started working at Oh So Pretty in 2015, where the girls welcomed me into their work family.

With a total of 20+ years as a cat and dog groomer, I learned to work with all different personalities of pets. I groom pets of all different breeds, shapes, ages, sizes, and hair quality. But I tend to be best known for grooming cats, double-coated dogs, dogs with behavior issues, and senior pets.

Dawn

Hi, I’m Dawn and I am the owner of Oh So Pretty. I’ve been grooming dogs and cats now for over 20 years. I am currently working on my NCMG (National Certified Master Groomer) certification through the National Dog Groomers Association of America. I am currently focusing on being a support for our grooming team during daily operations, mentoring and training future Pet Stylists, helping pets with behavior issues, and taking care of senior dogs and their grooming needs. Thank you for trusting all of your pets with our amazing team!

Johanna

Hello, my name is Johanna.

I am currently a bather at Oh So pretty! I have been working with animals and the dog rescue, Home at Last, for about 12 years now. I am a fur mom to a German Shepard, Riley, and two cats, Cali and Jules. I love all animals of all sizes, and I can’t wait to snuggle them all!

Juliana

My passion for dogs started in my childhood, but it got stronger when my family and I got a golden retriever to provide emotional support for my brother who was in a vegetative state.  My dog Luke was the best thing that ever happened to me and my family’s life!  He showed me the meaning of unconditional love, and I am so grateful to him for that!  He lived with us for 14 years and now he’s my four-legged angel in heaven!

Kaylyn

Hi, my name is Kaylyn! I decided to start working at Oh So Pretty as a bather because I moved away from home (and my dog) and I needed some way to fill the dog shaped hole in my heart. Luckily, working this job I’m able to interact with dogs of all sizes every day and I can’t express how happy it makes me! 

I’m currently a pet parent of two kitties, Ellie and Fungus, but I’m still a huge dog person at heart. I’ve been working with animals for 4 years now, but I’m new to the Oh So Pretty team! I’ve learned so much since being here, and can’t wait to learn and grow even more as a part of this loving and happy team! 

Lexi

Hi, I’m Lexi and I’m a bather at Oh So Pretty.  I’ve been working with pets of all sizes and types for many years and am really excited to be part of the team!  I’ve grown up with all sorts of pets, but currently have a pitbull named Goldie Locks and a French bulldog named Frankie.  One day I hope to train to be a groomer, but until then I look forward to everyday getting these little guys clean, fresh and looking their best!

Nikki

Hi, I’m Nikki. I am an animal caretaker with over 3 years of experience. I’ve graduated from an agricultural school that gave me the opportunity and passion to work with different types of animals. Currently, I’m a bather at Oh So Pretty and I hope to become a dog and cat groomer in the future!
