Tracey joined us before Christmas in 2016. Tracey has three pets and states \u201cNothing gives me more satisfaction than building relationships with both pets and pet parents while ensuring an experience that is as positive and stress free as possible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">Groomer Shauntae Kindle has been with us since 2012. She brings 20 years of professional grooming experience to her position with Dogtopia. Shauntae and her daughters have 13 pets, ranging from fur to feathers to fins.\u00a0 Shauntae often shares that \u201cAfter all these years and thousands of dogs groomed I still find ways to improve my skills.\u00a0 I take great pride in that as well as making dogs feel wonderful!\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">Meghan Colyer joined our team in 2016. Meghan has been grooming for over five years and loves making dogs look and feel great. She likes to spend her free time with her family including the 8 year old Lab Myers and Lani the 11 year old Pomeranian.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">Casey joined us in 2010. Casey holds the distinction of being our most senior team member.\u00a0 She has literally done it all.\u00a0 She has an incredible eye for detail and an amazing memory.\u00a0 She often amazes us by remembering the quantity and brand of our repeat guests&#8217; food.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">When our clients (both two- and four-legged), come through our doors they are greeted by Diana Gorrell at the Front Desk. Diana has been assisting our guests with reservations, scheduling and check outs since 2011, all with her calm, sweet smile.\u00a0 Excellence in customer service, organization and patience are just three of her many qualities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">Our business would not be able to function without our dedicated team of Canine Coaches: Reagan Daughtry, Daniel Cox, Debby Jones, William Cooper and Mallory Westbrook..<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">Bring your dog to Dogtopia of Waco and see first-hand why our dedicated team has won multiple awards from Wacoan Magazine, including their Best of Waco for Grooming, Boarding and Daycare.
