One groomer. One dog.
No drop-off. No pickup.
Porchlight shows up at your door. You don't have to go anywhere.
Professional grooming that comes to you, one dog at a time, paced around your dog’s needs and your schedule. No drop-off. No pickup. No rearranging your Saturday around a 10am appointment window.
Book online, give me your address, and go about your morning. I'll text you when I arrive and when we're done.
Traditional salons are loud, built for volume, and designed for dogs that just roll with it. Some dogs don't.
Porchlight is one groomer, one dog, in a quiet van parked right outside your home. No other dogs waiting. No cage time. No handoffs. Every appointment is paced around your dog's comfort, start to finish, by the same person, every time.
That's not a special accommodation. That's just how I work.
This is our neighborhood.
Homebase for Porchlight (and me) is Whittier Heights, right in the heart of the area I serve. I know the parking situation on 65th. I know which blocks have the narrow driveways. And I'll remember that your dog prefers a cooler rinse, dislikes the dryer, and has a spot behind their ear they love scratched.
I respond to every inquiry within a few hours, usually much faster. Porchlight isn't a call center or a franchise. You're texting the person who'll show up at your door.
Gay-owned and neighbor-run. You're in good company.
