About Me
Paws for Thought
Hi there! My name is Damaris, and I am a Master Dog Groomer with over 30 years experience. For 14 years, I ran a mobile dog grooming business in Atlanta, GA, but in 2020, my wonderful husband and I made the big move to the beautiful Montana City, MT.
I'm all about keeping my skills sharp, so I make sure to stay updated on pet training and pet CPR every year. This way, I can give your furry friends the best and safest grooming experience possible.
Life is busy and fun with my five dogs, two cats and eighteen chickens! When I'm not grooming, you can find me kayaking, exploring the great outdoors, and capturing the beauty of wildlife with my camera. My love for nature and animals fuels everything I do, both at work and in my free time.
Looking forward to meeting you and your pets!

Owner Reviews
In My Customers Own Words
The owner of Huckleberry Hound Spa is an incredible person. She is kind and gentle, but can handle ANY kind of pup, big or small, crazy or calm. She took excellent care of our pups as they aged and was there for them til the end. Getting to see her was one of the things I missed most after over a decade of having such a welcomed friend also lovingly tend to the task of keeping them refreshed & spa-utiful!

How is Our Spa Different?
Leaving your pet with a stranger is never an easy decision, and I’m sure you have a lot of questions about how it works. That's exactly where I am different. The moment you arrive, your pet is the only one in my Spa. I am hands on start to finish. Not only that, we have 3 areas for you to wait! First you have an area inside my Spa to watch and wait. Wonderful for those dogs with separation anxiety, seizures etc. Second some amazingly comfortable suspended canopy lounge chairs, lastly our deck overlooking the mountains and sleeping giant. No more leaving your dogs for hours. Bring a book and relax while I pamper your pooch or simply enjoy the view or feel free to run errands and I will text you within 20 mins of me completing the groom.I want it to be the best experience ever. I have nothing to hide. I completely sanitize all my equipment in between clients. Making it the safest and cleanest environment possible.

All About Me
A little about Carl Greene:
I have sharpened various knives and edge tools for over 40 years. I have an understanding of metallurgy and experience with edge creation, repair, adjustment, and maintenance. I have certifications from both Twice-As-Sharp and WorkSharp, and work closely with other sharpening professionals to stay up-to-date on tools, methods, and technology. I have sharpened shears for our grooming business for over 15 years. Keeping these high-quality, precision tools sharp and smooth extends their life, relieves cramping and carpal tunnel issues, and shortens the time involved in cutting pet hair, which allows more time for other important details in this line of work. For our customers, we will always carefully inventory & track items, with pictures, even occasional videos. Your invoice will have notes for each item - edge angle, repair needs, etc. - so we can reference for repeat jobs. Our work is guaranteed. If we damage an item beyond repair, or misplace it, we will replace it with an exact or equivalent new item (within reason, and with consideration for the quality when received).We are a small, local, family-owned business, and we greatly appreciate the support and loyalty of our customers.
