Michelle Mansell, Owner/Groomer & Posey, poodle sidekick

While I was born in Ohio, I have lived here in Tuscumbia all of my life. I have been married to Billy for 26 years. He has been in law enforcement 25 years as well.  We have a 31-year-old son, Skyler, who lives and works in DC for the United States Senate.  

I began working for veterinarians in my earlier years and picked up grooming along the way. During that time, I was a vet tech and had great interest in dermatology, ears problems and canine dentistry.  Grooming became a passion that I could incorporate those skills into my everyday grooming craft. I am also certified in animal CPR. 

After all the years of working for others, I decided to dedicate the rest of my years to opening my own grooming salon. And so, I did in 2016. Fast forward to April 2023, almost 7 years to the day, I relocated to a larger, more spacious location in need of room to expand.  

If we have already met, thank you for your support and allowing me to be a part of your pet's life!! If we are about to meet, I am very much looking forward to meeting you and your pet(s). Together we can give your pet the ultimate care of hygiene in grooming. 

Patrick Knight, Salon Manager, Groomer and Colorist.

Patrick began working with us over a year ago. He came to us as a human hairdresser and decided he wanted to change his path from human hair to dog hair.  He had a natural knack for it and soon became very proficient with doodles, poodles and the like.  He is also our colorist and salon manager. Had a natural knack for both of those as well.  Dependable and well organized, you'll see him running around getting things done. The dogs love him. Ask for Patrick to groom your poodle or doodle!!!

Heather Franke, Groomer and Peppy

I joined Michelle's team almost a year ago, I haven't met most of you, because I have only been working a couple of days a week. Well, that's about to change! While I have only been working part time up until now, Michelle has asked me to join her team full time, and that will start Monday, September 25, 2023.
I grew up in Savannah, Tennessee, but moved away after my dad passed away, and have lived in Wisconsin for the last 30+ years. I recently moved back to the area of Savannah to be near my family. And now I have decided to move here to Tuscumbia to work with Justfurpets Grooming LLC. I have been caring for dogs. cats and animals of all kinds my entire life and found my passion for grooming about 12 years ago. I ran my own salon in Wisconsin and my daughter has taken over there since I moved back to Tennessee. I was lucky enough to find my way to Justfurpets Grooming LLC and am thrilled to be a part of Michelle's team!! I look forward to meeting all of you and your pets in the coming days."

Kristie Stamper, Groomer and Candi (Client pet)

I have been grooming for 20+ years in The Shoals area. I started out as a bather working for Faye Mask and began grooming not long after. I love working with dogs and grooming is something I enjoy doing very much. I love doing doggie makeovers! I love to educate pet owners in brushing and at-home grooming care techniques. I will gladly answer any questions you may have. My goal is to please my clients with my work and to make sure your fur baby feels loved and safe. Thank you for trusting me and allowing me to pamper your dogs over the years and more to come."
