“It is almost impossible to find an experienced groomer locally that knows how to properly groom a poodle. Gina is incredibly talented and one of the best groomers we know. She does an amazing job with my two mini poodles, and we feel blessed to have found her. Thank you, Gina, for being so awesome and for making our pups look so beautiful.” – Valeria L.

Not Your Average Pet Groomer

We wanted to learn all about Gina’s Pet Grooming and its impressive online reputation, so we took a few minutes to talk with the owner, Gina Ray.

The first question we had for Gina was what is it that sets Gina’s Pet Grooming apart from her competition in West Virginia. Here’s Gina’s response:

“…I’m always honest with my customers, and I expect them, in return, to be honest with me. If there’s something that I do that they don’t like,…they need to tell me, so I can make it right.”

We also wanted to know what the mission is at Gina’s Pet Grooming and how she works to make the world a better place. Here’s what Gina had to say:

“It’s all about the safety of the dog. I don’t like to stress a dog out. If the owners couldn’t understand why I couldn’t finish the dog, I’m sorry, but my concern is for the safety of the animal. I’m one that likes to have the dogs in and out as soon as possible. I don’t like for you to drop off first thing in the morning and for them to spend all day. It’s too stressful for the animal.”

Building Success Through Organic Reviews

Gina attributes Gina’s Pet Grooming’s strong online reputation to many organic reviews she has earned:

“I’m good with the dogs. People just leave the reviews themselves. I have people that call me and tell me what a wonderful job we’ve done. I’m constantly recommended to new people moving into the area. People like how I am with the dogs. They like my personality. They say I’m easygoing, but I don’t ask anybody to write a review. They do that all on their own.”

Outside of building a powerful online reputation, Gina’s Pet Grooming has gotten their name out there through Facebook and word of mouth.

There are so many business owners out there looking to build the kind of online reputation Gina’s Pet Grooming has. Here’s Gina’s expert advice for them:

“Don’t give up. Just set your mind to it, and keep going. Don’t let anything set you back. You’re going to have criticisms; you’re going to get compliments, but don’t let anything set you back. If you’re out to do something, just stick with it. You’ve got to be courteous.”


Congratulations to the team at Gina’s Pet Grooming for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and thank you so much, Gina, for taking the time to speak with us!
