Summary

In our latest episode of The Daily Groomer, I'm thrilled to sit down with Lesley Weeks, aka the "grandmother of grooming." We chat about her journey from being Toronto’s first pet groomer to founding Pampered Paws. Lesley opens up about how the industry has evolved—from new equipment and the rise of mobile grooming to changing licensing standards. She also shares her thoughts on the future of grooming and some fun behind-the-scenes stories. It’s an insightful conversation you won’t want to miss!
