About

Hello! My name is Cassie and animals have always been the center of my world. I grew up surrounded by them—dogs, cats, and plenty of farm animals—which taught me early on what it means to care deeply, move gently, and build trust without words. Creativity was always another part of me, and I never imagined a life that didn’t include both.

 

When the dairy farm I worked on shut down, I knew I still needed to be in a career where animals were part of my daily life. Dog grooming felt like the perfect blend of my love for animals and my creative nature, and I jumped in wholeheartedly. I’ve now been grooming for five years, working in salons with all kinds of structures and speeds. Along the way, I realized something important: assembly-line grooming may be efficient, but it leaves little room for the patience, detail, and care each dog deserves.

 

That understanding is what inspired The Lather Lounge.

 

I built this space around one-on-one grooming, where every dog gets uninterrupted time, a calm environment, and a groom tailored to their needs. Without the rush, I can focus entirely on quality—creating a relaxed experience and a beautiful finish, while making sure your dog feels safe, seen, and cared for.

 

My goal is for clients to feel like they’re leaving their dog with a friend—someone who treats them like family. Because that’s what they are to me. At home, my life is still full of animals, with two dogs, three cats, and a few others who keep things fun and chaotic in the best way.

 

The Lather Lounge is more than grooming. It’s a place where comfort, connection, and craftsmanship come together—one dog, one appointment, one peaceful experience at a time.
