Meet The Team

A New Standard of Care

Whether it's a bubbly bath, a paw massage, or a full grooming session, Tracy and her teams focus is always on trust-building and comfort. That’s why her team includes emotional support staff, uses only gentle Hydra Collection products, and takes the time to get to know each pet as an individual — not just a client.

The spa isn’t just a service. It’s a sanctuary.
With restraint-free practices, soothing music, and one-on-one appointments, pets leave not only looking fresh — but feeling calmer, too.

FAQS

What makes The Turquoise Pooch different from other groomers?

We’re not your typical salon. The Turquoise Pooch offers a cage-free, muzzle-free, and restraint-free spa experience where your pet’s emotional comfort is just as important as their fresh look. Each session is one-on-one and personalized, with soft music, calming staff, and top-tier products. This is grooming reimagined — with care at the center.

Do you only groom dogs?

Nope! While many of our clients are dogs, we also provide grooming for other small pets depending on their needs and temperament. If you're unsure whether your pet qualifies, just reach out — we’re happy to talk through options.

What’s the Hydra Collection, and why do you use it?

The Hydra Collection is a professional grooming product line trusted by luxury salons worldwide. These formulas are:

- Gentle and pH-balanced for animal skin

- Paraben-free and safe for frequent use

- Infused with calming scents and nourishing botanicals

We chose Hydra because it delivers beautiful results without compromising your pet’s health or comfort. Think of it as spa-grade care for your four-legged family.
