Judy
Judy started Paradise Pet Salon in 2004 when she and her husband purchased Dee’s Grooming Shop in the Riverview Plaza. Since 2004, Judy has managed, bathed, groomed, and grown her business to become one of the busiest shops in the area, finding talented people to join her staff of pet care professionals. In 2022, realizing that she had outgrown her space, and recognizing the need for a daycare and boarding facility in this growing area, she looked for and found a new location just 1 ½ miles north of where Paradise started. With three times the space, Judy envisioned a place where pets could come for the day or an extended stay in an intimate, friendly atmosphere. After an extensive remodel, both inside and out, Paradise Pet Salon, Daycare & Boarding opened its doors on January 3, 2023 at its new location, 10614 Riverview Drive, Riverview FL. Featuring all the existing staff and a few new additions, Paradise Pet Salon, Daycare & Boarding is ready to provide the exceptional care that Paradise has always been known for, whether for grooming, daycare, or boarding. Judy continues to be involved in all aspects of the business and can often be found manning the front desk, helping the groomers or playing with the daycare and boarding dogs out in the large play yard.
