Mikaela approaches each new dog with a calm demeanor to keep the dog relaxed, adjusting her techniques based on the dog's needs. She stays current with grooming trends by following groomers on Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, and TikTok, and by seeking advice from her coworkers and trainer. The most challenging part of her job is working with aggressive dogs, but she prioritizes safety and adapts her methods to ensure a stress-free experience for the animals. Mikaela finds the most rewarding part of her work in seeing her skills improve over time and helping dogs feel more comfortable and confident. Her favorite tool is her chunkers, perfect for blending hairs and creating smooth finishes. Outside of grooming, Mikaela enjoys horseback riding, playing video games, and reading, and she is surrounded by a loving family of three dogs, two cats, and seven horses.
