LOCAL BUSINESS OWNER H O L LY ’ S DOG SALON Holly’s Dog Salon & Boutique HollysDogSalon.com • [email protected] 414-758-7949 Owners: Holly Perszyk HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN IN BUSINESS? 5 years. WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO GET STARTED? After several years training shelter dogs, I wanted to help them feel better about themselves in a different way. Watching the pups prance around after bathing, clipping, and styling them filled this passion for me! WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PART OF YOUR BUSINESS? Aside from our amazingly caring grooming family/staff, establishing a connection with each dog on the grooming table and seeing their fears disappear is one of my favorite parts of our grooming business. WHAT ARE YOUR CUSTOMERS LIKE? I am confident that Holly’s Dog Salon has the best customers around. Not only are they kind and considerate with their precious pups, so many customers have extended their caring and generous hearts to the staff at the salon. Many end up coming in every two weeks between their grooming appointments for routine nail trims, and start to feel more like part of the family than customers! WHY SHOULD CUSTOMERS DISCOVER YOUR BUSINESS? Our salon is unique in that we never have more than a few dogs at the salon at any given time. We believe this creates a calm and safe environment, as well as allows us to keep each dogs’ visit at the salon short and sweet. We are able to do this by extending our hours of operation. ARE THERE ANY PLANS FOR YOUR BUSINESS TO EXPAND, ETC.? We are putting all of our attention on this location for the time being. We have added several new and talented groomers to our grooming family as well as extended the salon’s hours of operation to accommodate our growing clientele. WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR FAVORITE LOCAL BUSINESSES? Our salon collectively agreed on some of our favorite local hot-spots: Sobelman’s: for their classic WI menu, For Pet’s Sake Training: they use a positive reinforcement approach to training as well as having a cheerful and knowledgeable staff, Integrative Veterinary Services: for their holistic and non-commercial approach to animal care, Bel-Aire Cantina: for their unique taco menu! Who doesn’t love tacos? And finally End of the Leash Pet-Store. for their wide variety of raw foods and treats.
