I founded Aussie Pet Mobile of Memphis & West TN in September of 2008 with just one van and myself as the only groomer; look at how far we've come! Ashley and I have two boys, Jacks and Parker, and two toy poodles, JoJo and Elvis. In my free time, I am an avid snow skier and slalom water skier and enjoy all things outdoors.

My name is Lindsey. I started with Aussie Pet Mobile in 2020, which has been nothing short of amazing! As long as I can remember, I have always had a love for animals. I am married to my handsome and amazing husband and have 3 handsome boys. I am also a fur-momma to my two beautiful German Shepherds, Molly, and Roxy. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies. Hope to see you soon!

Hi, my name is Elise. I’ve loved animals ever since I was little, so it’s no surprise I ended up working with them. I got my start at Pet Smart in 2011, working as a bather before going through the grooming academy offered by that company. While working there, I learned my craft and gained valuable hands-on experience working with many different breeds of dogs. I enjoy my job and have a passion for making dogs look great! I have three fur babies of my own: a Siberian Husky and two cats.

Hi, my name is Leslie. I’ve lived in Memphis my whole life. I’ve always loved animals and knew one day I would work with them. Tina taught and trained me how to make beautiful fur babies even more beautiful. Additionally, I have a wonderful little girl named Lilly who shares a love for animals as I do. I joined the Aussie family in 2017 and haven’t looked back since. I can’t wait to meet you and your beautiful fur babies!!

Hi, my name is Sarah, and I’ve been grooming since 2013. I got my start with grooming at a salon in Georgia and ended up moving back home to Memphis to groom here! I never knew that this is what I would end up doing, but I love it! I have always wanted to work with animals so when this opportunity came along, I couldn’t pass it up. I love making fur babies feel happy and look beautiful. I personally have one fur baby, a cat named Bear, and two kids of my own. They love it when I come home and show them pictures of all the dogs, I got to see that day. I am so blessed to be able to work here at Aussie and send your babies back happy and prancing around in their new ‘dos! Hope to see you soon! 🙂

Hi, my name is Kristin. God has blessed me with two bonus kids. I’ve always had a passion for animals and that’s why I choose this line of work. I believe if you’re doing what you love, which for me is anything to do with animals, then it’s hardly working! I started working with animals at an animal hospital as a kennel/vet tech and later where I became a groomer. I have been a groomer SINCE 2007. I have two dogs and one cat, and they are my world. One of my dogs may not have a brain but he keeps me laughing. I like meeting with my clients to get to know them and they know me. I want you to feel comfortable with me and to also know that while your fur babies are in my care, they are in the best of hands. I believe I didn’t choose to be a groomer; grooming chose me!

Hello, I’m Heather! I was born and raised in Memphis with a little sidetrack in Huntsville, AL. I have 2 kids and 3 fur babies. I’ve had a love for animals for as long as I can remember, always brushing them and pretending to be their doctor. I started working as a vet tech for a veterinary hospital in AL, which is where I took an interest in grooming and went to learn and practice under a master show groomer. From that moment on I knew this is what I was meant to do. I’m loving every minute of my time at Aussie, and I cannot wait to meet you and your fur baby very soon!

Hi! My name is Kai Ijeoma Berry! I’ve been a bather since 2019. I began with PetSmart and transitioned to Aussie in 2021. I graduated from Bartlett High School and attended Clark Atlanta University. Since a young age, I’ve loved nothing more than film, dogs, and decorating. My 11+ year old German Shepard mix is named Shadow. My 3+ year-old Pit-Bull mix is named Valkyrie Junior. One thing for sure and two things for certain: they are truly characters joined at the hip. I enjoy every part of what I do, and Aussie Pet Mobile effortlessly equips me with everything I need in order to do my job effectively. Thank you, in advance, for entrusting me with your furry best friend. Welcome to the Aussie family 🙂

Hi! My name is Kelly. I was born and raised in Memphis, and for as long as I can remember, I have always had fur babies that I loved and cared for.

Hi, I’m Christin! I was born and raised in Memphis and have always loved animals. I grew up with dogs, cats, chickens, reptiles, and more and have always had a passion for taking care of them. I’ve always known I wanted to work with animals for my career, and when the opportunity to work with Aussie presented itself, I was thrilled! It’s been a great team to be a part of and I love working with fur-babies every day and getting to build relationships with clients and their pets. I hope I get to meet you and yours soon!

Hi, my name is Holly. I grew up in Indianapolis, but I have lived in the Memphis area for 13 years. It’s become a second (much warmer) home to me! I love animals and grew up having cats and a dog around. I always knew I wanted to help animals, so I became involved in animal rescue and ended up with multiple pets as a result. 😁 After being an elementary school teacher for over 15 years, and having a son this past fall, I decided it was time for a change! I joined Aussie in June 2022, and I’m excited to get to know you and your fur babies!
Thanks!

Hi! My name Chrysti! I was born and raised North of Chicago. I moved down South with my family 13 years ago, and now I call Hernando home. I am married and have two boys Alex and Justin.

Hey there, my name is Julia!! I was born in San Jose California, but Tennessee became my home after my father retired from the military. I started my Animal care career at vet clinic in Millington when I was a teenager, I loved that job. Including all the duties and care that came with it.

Before coming to Aussie Pet Grooming, I had a successful retail management career that included a farm and hardware store. In the background of that, I had a hobby farm with animals ranging from horses, goats, chickens, and Emus. Currently, I’m a mom to 5 dogs, an old grouchy cat, some chickens, and a couple of peacocks. 

After many years in the retail management industry, I finally decided to follow my heart and to return to my animal career roots. I want to give you and your fur babies the best care

Hi! My name is Star, and I am a born and raised Memphian. I spent many years in the automotive service industry, but it did not bring me joy. So I joined Aussie in January 2023 in order to turn my love for animals into a rewarding career. I have been a dog foster mom for over 11 years, and I have 2 amazing dogs of my own, Jester and Poppy. I also have 3 cats, Ninja, Nebula, and Boy Kitten, and a foster cat named Billie Jean Davy. I am excited to meet and pamper your furry babies, and you can trust that I will treat them with the utmost love, care, and respect. I also look forward to meeting you and building a wonderful relationship as your pet stylist!

Hello there! My name is Cayce. I started working with Aussie in 2023 and have enjoyed every minute of it since. After graduating from MTSU, I lived in Nashville for a few years before moving back home to Memphis in 2022. A few months later, the opportunity to become a dog groomer fell into my lap, and I knew I had to take it. I trained with the amazing Heidi, who taught me everything I needed to know about grooming your furry loved ones. When I was little, I always dreamed of working with animals, so I can proudly say my dreams come true! I’ve always believed the connection you have with a dog or cat is truly one of the most special and pure forms of love life gives us. I have five furry family members of my own; a goofy German Shepherd named Greta, and four beautifully spoiled cats named Arthur, Hosea, Butterbean, and Festus. In my free time, I enjoy cross stitching, painting, and going to concerts.

Hi, I’m Mike. I am so excited to start 2023 as a member of the Aussie team. I love being around animals. I’ve always been a pet owner of some kind; guinea pigs, hedgehogs, dogs & cats. Right now I have a chow chow named Teddy and his feline nemesis Kassie. I’m married with a teenage son, we love to take Teddy with us on camping trips. I am so happy to be starting my grooming career and look forward to meeting you and your furry family members soon.

Hey there, my name is Emily! I was born and raised north of Seattle, WA, but moved to the Memphis area about 4 years ago. Now I call Southaven my home! I joined the Aussie team in 2023, and prior to that I spent a few years in the Fedex shipping industry, but I was discontent and ready for a career that would bring me joy. The opportunity to join the Aussie team arose, and with my love for animals, I was more than ecstatic to be a part of the family. I am a proud mama to my 3 year old son Iliyan, my dog Roophus, my lizard Charli, and 3 cats Spike, Grimm, and Kiyami. I aim to build positive relationships and give you and your fur babies the best care possible!

Hey Y’all! My name is Alissa. I’m originally from Memphis. However, I did venture out for some time and joined the Navy and got my first German shepherd. After I left the Navy, my first job was a kennel tech and from there started my dog career. I have worked my way up to dog training.  I was AKC CGC certified and trained multiple therapy dogs and service dogs. In the past two years, I have had two sons and I  have decided to do what I’ve always wanted to do which is grooming! I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies.

Hi, my name is Katey. Ever since I was a kid I’ve had a passion for animals and I got my start by volunteering at the local animal shelter at only 12 years old. Since then, I have become a certified professional groomer. I graduated from Diamond Cut Dog Grooming School in April 2016. Previously, I was grooming in different types of salon environments but I couldn’t be happier making the switch to mobile grooming with Aussie! Since joining the team I have actually been able to reconnect with pets and clients I haven’t been able to see in years and I couldn’t be more grateful. I am a single mom to one little girl named Adeline, one black cat named Toothless, and two different rescue dogs named Peanut and Cleo. I’m so excited to be bringing Aussie back to the Jackson area where I live and I look forward to meeting you and your fur-babies in the future!

Hey everyone! I am Kiara Wilson. I am from Byram, MS, which is where my love for dogs began. I’ve further developed my love for animals in general at Mississippi State University by working with husbandry animals. Then, I moved to Memphis after graduating where I decided to continue to work with animals, dogs especially because they’re my favorite. I have three dogs that I go home to in the evenings: Creole, Leo, Mojo. Aussie was the fresh start I needed. It honestly feels like a home away from home, and I love the atmosphere here.

Hello! My name is Emilee Bacon (like the food)! I’m from Memphis, born and raised. I have two cats and a bearded dragon, but I have a love for all animals, big and small. I have always been passionate about the care and treatment of animals. I’ve groomed my family’s pets, as well as my own, since I was very young. Making sure your fur babies are as comfortable and calm during grooming is my top priority. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pets and groom them with the care and love they deserve!

Hello, my name is Morgan Williams. I was born in Memphis and carried right back across the bridge to get my start in Arkansas. I have always lived in Memphis and surrounding areas. After attending the U of M for Hospitality I realized I did not need a degree to specialize in that field. I worked in Customer Service for 10 years with my Grandmother telling me “you should’ve done something with animals”. I finally decided to listen to Grandma in 2023 when I started training to be a Pet Groomer. The beginning of 2024 I transitioned to Aussie to start my Career. I have a split household with 2 Dogs (Juno and Uhtred) and 2 Cats (Mario and Broomhilda). So much love and entertainment under one roof. I look forward to meeting your family too!

Hello there…my name is Sherry! My husband, me, our adopted son and two Miniature Australian Shepherds moved to the Memphis area from Pennsylvania a little over two years ago. Back in PA, we also have two grown daughters and a son. In addition to our dogs, we recently adopted a new pet, Timmy, the tree frog! Since moving here, I’ve decided to give up my corporate desk job of 30 plus years to pursue my passion of working with animals. Several years ago, I taught myself how to groom my own dogs, so I thought becoming a dog groomer made perfect sense. I am very excited to travel down this new career path, along with you and your beloved pets! Being a dog lover, and of all animals in general, I will treat your fur babies as my own while in my care by giving them the love and special attention they deserve. Besides being an animal lover, I also like to spend time outdoors enjoying nature, whether that be via walking, biking, kayaking or working in my garden. I look forward to meeting and working with you and your dog(s) soon!

Hi! My name is Kimberly! I was Born and raised in Collierville, Tennessee by loving adoptive parents where I grew up around many pets and developed a love for animals. I started my work at Dogtopia and worked there for two years, gaining a passion for working with animals. Working there helped me decide to make this my career. As I worked there I was given the opportunity to do basic grooming; Bathing, Brushouts, Nails, etc. I was intrigued by the grooming aspects of it all and chose to look into a grooming career. I currently have three dogs and one cat. My 4-year-old Bicolor German Shepherd named Beau, My 6-year-old Siberian Husky named Sam, My 5-year-old Cavapoo named Gracie, and My 13-year-old Shorthair Tabby named Jasper.
