Christine Rodriguez with a happy client
The Paw Spa of Jacksonville has been purchased by long time Rogue Valley resident Christine Rodriguez. After six years working for Groomingdales and Celebrity Pets, Christine was presented with a chance to buy the business. “About a month ago, Didi Thompson let me know she wanted to sell… it was the right time in my life and I’d always wanted to own my own business. She still owns Land of Paws in Ashland and was looking for an owner who cared about their own business as much as she did.”
Christine offers pet grooming services for dogs and cats, specializing in hand scissoring. “Hand scissoring has the advantage of allowing multiple hair lengths for dogs, resulting in a fuller coat that looks and feels fluffier,” she says. Other dog grooming services offered at the Paw Spa include bathing, Dremel and traditional nail trimming as well as gland cleaning. The Paw Spa also caters to cats, offering bathing, nail trimming and brushing services designed to control shedding.
The Paw Spa is open 9-4 Monday-Saturday and by appointment by calling 541-899-6811. Grooming services for small dogs start at $35 and at $45 for larger dogs.
