Our Team
Nicole Pepper Owner/Master Groomer I have been in the grooming industry for over 28 years. I received my certification from Nanhall grooming school in 1997. It has always been my dream to own my own shop and it happened in June 2019. I will not discriminate against any dog. Big, small good or bad. They all deserve a spa day. I specialize in hand scissoring of all breeds and will hand strip if appropriate. I believe a groomer is the first defense on any issues concerning your pet. We see and feel your dog more often than a vet and can point out any changes that we see during the grooming process. A dirty dog is a happy dog and I make them a happy clean dog. |
Ashlyn Dodd Head Groomer I have loved animals, big and small my entire life. My first job was at a petting zoo at the age of 7 at our local zoo. I started my formal education at an Equestrian College to learn how to shoe. I was a groomer in Middletown NJ prior to working at FURology. Here, with the help, knowledge and support of Nicole, I was able to find my creativity and individual style. Working here is a wonderful experience. |
Jill Helsens Head Bather I live in beautiful Sussex County on a several acre farm. I manage many different types of animals. From our domestic cats to the pigs, cows and sheep. I have always had a love for animals. I was given the opportunity to work at FURology as a bather. Best decision i have ever made. I also work with many Resue groups which is also a passion of mine. |
Hailey Skorupa Bather I recently switched from working in accounting during High School as a work-study program and realized it was not for me. I have always loved dogs and was offered a position at FURology in November 2021. I own a Plott Hound named Cody. I am currently a student at Ramapo college studying Environmental science and sustainability. |
