About Us
Hey there! I'm Michelle, the critter cosmetologist here at Animal House.
I have always loved animals and knew my life would be working with them. After graduating high school in 2001 I took a year off before completing two years of Pre-Vet college in the University of Maine college system. Unfortunately, my math and science game wasn't competitive enough so I changed to a veterinary technician program in the same college system. Upon completing a year, I moved from Maine to Asheville NC in 2005. I worked at a local vet office for a few months before realizing that that wasn't the aspect of animal care I wanted to be part of. After applying at pet stores in Asheville, PetSuperMarket hired me and sent me to Nanhall Grooming School! After being the only groomer there for a few years I needed to branch out to learn more from other groomers. I worked at 2 other shops in the Asheville area before opening Animal House in February of 2013. My free time is spent with my Great Dane-Cleopatra, who you will meet at the spa and my cats- Lilly & Lilac, two crazy tuxedo ladies that run the house. I enjoy arts & crafts, going to the gym, walks with Cleo and getting tattoos. I am working on finding myself again after some serious changes in my life.
I specialize in making you pet cute. Together we can decide on the cut or you can leave it up to me.
Hey there! I'm Katie, I'm one of the grooming assistants at Animal House Pet Spa. I started here in 2014 and have loved working with all the furry friends since. My work includes bathing, blow drying and brush outs, nail painting, simple coat coloring, and de-shedding. I'm also a professional cuddler to all those critters who just need a hug! I love working with animals, and love make new friends or seeing my regular fuzzy friends every week here at Animal House. Currently, I am received my Associates in Science degree while working here and will continue to work towards a major in Wildlife Biology. In my freetime I enjoy nature photography, being a mom to my four cats, reading, playing video games, writing, and spending time with my family.
Woof! My name is Cleopatra 💜 I'm the beautiful Great Dane you will always see here at Animal House. Besides taking naps and playing with all the friends that come in, I help keep them calm. You may find me laying across a grooming table underneath a dog, holding paws with another, or sometimes offering encouraging barks to others. I may be big but my friends are as small as 3 pounds and as old as 14 years. When I'm not working I enjoy napping on one of my many beds, playing with my kitty sisters, going on walks with my mom and shopping.
