Tracie
Officer Manager & Reception
I was born in Alabama but am a Texan at heart since the 5th grade! I’m a proud mom of three grown kids. While I don’t have any fur babies of my own at the moment, I’ve got a whole crew of furry friends to cuddle thanks to my pet-sitting gigs for my human pals. With an Associate’s degree in Hospitality Management and over 30 years of experience in the customer service world, I’ve always had a knack for making folks feel right at home. But when I’m not doing that, you’ll find me geeking out over Spider-Man, dinosaurs, and going all out for Halloween.
Hannah
Professional Bather
My name is Hannah Castillo, and I have a longstanding passion for working with dogs and cats, especially in grooming and overall care. I began in the pet care industry right after graduating high school, and I have never looked back! I have continued to grow my skills through hands-on experience, client interaction, and a genuine love for helping animals look and feel their best.
I am married to my wonderful husband, Jorge, who is from Peru, and together we share our home with Moose, our two-year-old Labradoodle who keeps life fun and full of energy. My personal experience as a dog owner strengthens my commitment to providing patient, attentive, and high-quality care to every pet I work with. Every pet that walks through our doors is treated just like my own, and I wouldn’t have it any other way!
Summer
Professional Bather
I’ve always had a huge love for animals, especially dogs, so getting to work with them every day is something I’m truly grateful for. I’m excited to be part of the Bears and Bellas team as a professional bather, where I get to help each pet feel comfortable, cared for, and looking their best.
One of my favorite parts of my job is getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Every pet is different, and I love taking the time to make their grooming experience as positive and stress-free as possible. Whether they’re excited, nervous, or somewhere in between, my goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re with me.
My love for animals extends into my life at home, too! I have my own dog, Moo, whom I adopted, and she is a very special part of my family. Being a dog owner myself has made me even more passionate about ensuring every pet receives the same patience, kindness, and care I would want for my own.
Outside of grooming, I’m currently finishing up college and will be graduating this fall with my associate degree. I also run a small home bakery, which I really enjoy and find to be a fun way to express my creative side. Music is another huge passion of mine, and I love spending my free time listening to music and discovering new artists and songs.
I’m so excited to meet you and your fur babies and look forward to getting to know each of their personalities! Thank you for trusting me with your babies. I’ll always do my best to make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. 🐾
Savannah
Lead Pet Stylist
As a dedicated pet stylist, grooming is my absolute passion. I specialize in building strong bonds with both canine and feline clients, transforming the grooming experience into something relaxing, positive, and fun. My expertise spans the entire lifecycle of a pet: guiding young puppies through their very first haircuts—capturing that unforgettable transformation for their families—and building long-term trust so pets are genuinely excited to return to my care. I am deeply committed to senior pet care, providing a gentle, low-stress environment where pet parents can have total peace of mind knowing their aging companions are treated with the utmost patience and compassion. From refreshing feline grooms to mastering some of my favorite breeds—including Schnauzers and Shih Tzus—my goal is to ensure every pet leaves looking their best and feeling completely loved. If you are looking for a groomer who maintains the highest standards of safety and quality, treats your pet with the same love as my own, and is genuinely excited to build a lasting relationship with you and your furry friend , I would be honored to be your groomer.
Keanna
Pet Stylist
Hi, I’m Keanna! I’ve always been someone who absolutely loves animals, so getting to turn that into a career is something I’m really proud of. I have three babies of my own, Chuy, Suki, and Goose, and they’re a huge part of why I love what I do so much. They’ve definitely taught me that every dog has their own personality, quirks, and way of doing things!
I graduated from grooming school after a whole year of learning, practicing, and working hard! I’m now certified in regular grooming, creative grooming, and so much more, and I’m so excited to keep learning and growing as a groomer.
The biggest thing I want every pet parent to know is that I truly love and care for every baby that comes into my care like they’re my own. I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved from the moment they come in until the moment they go home. I know how much our babies mean to us, which is why I love our salon's transparent and safety-focused environment.
I’m so excited to continue doing something I genuinely love and to meet all of your sweet babies! My goal is always to send them home looking and feeling their best, with lots of love along the way.
Patricia
Pet Stylist
Being an avid animal lover my entire life, I chose to attend Texas All Breed Grooming School and graduated in 1994. While attending classes I knew that being a Pet Stylist was the career that I wanted to do until I retire. In the 30 years I've been working in the industry, I have worked in 4 shops, and the skills that I have is a gift from God.
What I enjoy about being a Pet Stylist is getting to know each of the dogs, finding and loving each of the dog’s individual personalities, and ensuring that they always look his/her best.
To ensure that I get each dog to look their best, I enjoy honing my skills by learning the latest techniques and technology at conferences and classes that I attend regularly.
Outside of caring for your fur babies, I am married to a Godly man and have two Godly sons, our oldest son is a Senior at Texas Tech studying Music Performance, and our youngest son is a Sophomore at Braswell High School and loves playing tennis. In my spare time, I enjoy reading and watching British comedies.
I look forward to meeting and getting to know each of you and your fur babies. I always do my best to ensure that they get the best care and look their best during and after each visit.
Tasha
Pet Stylist
Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Many of my fondest childhood memories involve the dogs and horses that we had. Growing up near my Aunt and Uncle’s horse boarding stable helped me to develop the ability to read and listen to an animal’s body language, in addition to learning to ride and gain experience in caretaking. This especially helped when my parents bought some land and moved to the Blue Ridge area when I was 9.
Although sports and band took priority during my teenage years, I knew I wanted to work with animals. After attending a local community college, I realized that formal education didn’t suit me. It was around this time that I happened across a bather position at a local feed store. Unbeknownst to me, I was to find a career that I’m passionate about, as well as meet my mentor and gain a lifelong friendship working there.
Over the last 15 years, I’ve continued to grow and evolve my grooming skills. I am actively involved with the International Society of Canine Cosmetologists (I.S.C.C.) both behind the scenes and in the competition ring. I’ve been competitive in and placed in creative grooming classes, poodles, and terriers (handstripping). I continue to observe and learn from award-winning stylists from around the world, including my mentor.
I plan on continuing to groom competitively with my standard poodle, Abby, and my mentor’s Australian Terrier, Owen, and standard poodle, Princess. I also plan on working towards my Master Groomer certification. I’m excited about joining the Bears and Bellas Grooming team, and can’t wait to see what the future brings!
