About

Fannie’s Pet Grooming offers a clean, convenient, and comfortable service for the dogs of Sarasota. Our unique service offers a luxury experience like no other. Pets are groomed in their own grooming suite in a one-to-one setting by appointment only.

Our groomer and founder, Fannie Bushin, was the owner/operator of Fannie’s House Call Pet Grooming Inc. servicing Miami, FL and Longboat Key, FL for 8+ years. After many years of perfecting a tailored grooming service, she is delighted to offer her care, skill, and expertise to the pets of Sarasota by inviting them into her spa-like salon.

Fannie is a graduate of the Merryfield School of Pet Grooming, a certified pet grooming school that offers 600+ hours of hands-on training and pet handling education. Fannie is also a graduate of Parsons the New School for Design and holds a BBA in Strategic Design and Management. She believes that grooming is “sculpting with fur” and the profession allows her the perfect mix of business and creativity.

Fannie is a registered member of the National Dog Grooming Association of America (NDGAA). Fannie is certified in Pet First Aid and Pet CPR. She actively maintains her AKC Salon Safe certification. She continues to attend in-person and online seminars and conferences to continue her education and learn about the latest grooming techniques and products.

Fannie has owned poodles all her life, and is currently the proud owner of Miles, an 8-year-old phantom Toy Poodle. She also shares her life with two cockatiels, Eydie and Lydia. As an animal welfare advocate, Fannie volunteers with the Parrot Outreach Society and the Florida Poodle Rescue. She enjoys taking her ‘kids’ for walks (birds often included) around the neighborhood. If you happen to see her, please say hi :)
