About the owner:
My name is Jen and I run Paw Seasons Salon. I’ve been passionate about caring for animals since I was a young girl and have had many different pets of all shapes and sizes. However it's fair to say my career path to working with animals, and ultimately becoming a professional groomer, hasn’t been the most conventional!
​
At school I was always keen on becoming a vet but my skill set and other keen interest in geography led me in a different academic direction. I studied Town Planning for 4 years at the University of Sheffield where I secured a BA Honours and Diploma. Following university I became a chartered member of the Royal Town Planning Institute and enjoyed a successful 10 year career in the industry.
However, my love of animals and especially dogs didn’t go away and I made the ‘now or never’ decision to retrain as a dog groomer in 2016. Juggling a full time job and training every Saturday with 'Best In Show' winning groomer Amy Manser in her busy grooming salon was a challenge, but it was all worth it. After 20 weeks of training I graduated with a distinction in my City & Guilds qualification, and accredidtation in Canine First Aid. I left with invaluable experience and a network of equally passionate grooming professionals to share ideas and advice with.
​
I started Paw Seasons Salon because I wanted to devote my career to animals, but also to do my bit for the environment. We’re all in it together so the more I can do to lessen my footprint, the happier I’ll be.
