LaunderPet is now the owner of Wags to Whiskers Pet Grooming in Los Altos. Dara Samson, who founded Wags to Whiskers Pet Grooming 12 years ago, sold her award-winning grooming business to LaunderPet so she can focus on hotbows.com, her other successful and rapidly growing business. LaunderPet was “born and raised” in Long Beach and now has three locations, two in Long Beach (Belmont Heights and Bixby Knolls) and one in Seal Beach (on Main Street).
Based on the strength and success of both brands and businesses, LaunderPet plans to operate Wags to Whiskers Pet Grooming with the current staff and under the current name and brand.
“Wags to Whiskers Pet Grooming is the busiest and most successful single-location grooming business in Long Beach,” said Eric Hatch, co-owner of LaunderPet. “Dara Samson, the founder and a close friend, has built a tremendous brand and business. We are proud to have Wags to Whiskers Pet Grooming as part of the LaunderPet family. We will work hard to continue to deliver the outstanding customer service for which Wags to Whiskers Pet Grooming is known and loved.”
In the weeks and months ahead, LaunderPet plans to identify and share best practices at all four stores in the LaunderPet family. In addition, and based on customer input, LaunderPet will soon add selected premium dog and cat foods and more supplies to the inventory at Wags to Whiskers Pet Grooming.
