This dream was brought to life by Patti, a woman with a heart as big as the dogs she groomed. For over two decades, Patti dedicated herself to building Clip-N & Groom-N into the trusted name it is today. She believed in more than just grooming—she believed in creating a safe and loving environment for every pet that walked through our doors. She refused to rush, knowing that each dog, especially puppies and elderly companions, needed the time and attention they deserved. A typical groom at Clip-N & Groom-N could take anywhere from 1 to 3 hours, with Patti meticulously ensuring that each one was just right.

After years of tireless work and countless happy tails, Patti decided it was time to pass the clippers to the next generation. Enter Justin, her son, who grew up watching his mother’s dedication and love for the furry friends of Dixon. With a deep respect for the legacy his mother created, Justin was honored to take the reins of Clip-N & Groom-N.

"My mom, graciously handed me the keys to this incredible business that she nurtured for over 20 years. Now, I’m committed to carrying on her legacy... "
