Maria Rossler, our groomer, began grooming almost 10 years ago after a family dog had to be repeatedly sedated for grooming and she wanted him to have a more enjoyable grooming experience. She graduated from the American Academy of Pet Grooming in New York City in 2007.

Maria is a huge animal lover with four dogs, two cats, and other assorted rescued animals at home. Maria finds grooming is a way for her to take care of animals as well as a creative outlet. She has worked in a grooming salon and also enjoys grooming at home.

Maria promises to care for and treat every animal as if they were her very own. She is available on Wednesday. If you are interested in updating your furry friend’s look, please give us a call at 914-636-8106, and make an appointment to see Maria!
