About Studio 851 Pet Spa & Grooming L.L.C
Hi, I'm Angela Letts, ICMG, CCE, the owner of Studio 851 Pet Spa & Grooming L.L.C. Styling pets is my passion. I have always loved all animals and being creative, so I really couldn't think of a better career than grooming. I have over 800 hours in academy training as well as ten years experience in the grooming industry. I am an internationally certified master groomer. I am also a certified pet esthetician.
I have extensive training in animal safety and handling. I am a certified AKC groomer and an AKC S.A.F.E. grooming salon. I am a fear free certified groomer. I am also Pet CPR and First aid certified through the American Red Cross. These certifications mean that I am able to respond to emergencies, follow a safety oath and protocol, receive continuing education, and pass safety inspections. I am also a member of The National Dog Grooming Association of America and International Professional Groomers Inc.
Your pet's experience
At Studio 851 I treat every pet as if it were my own. I will always do what is best for your pet to keep them clean, healthy, and feeling and looking their best. I understand that grooming can be scary for some pets, especially if it is their first time or they have had a bad experience in the past. I keep a clean, relaxing, spa environment, and a positive attitude. Our grooming studio offers your pet a private appointment where they will be groomed start to finish in a low-stress environment utilizing gentle techniques. I diffuse essential oils and play quiet relaxing music, so they will get the full spa experience. We offer a complimentary gourmet treat bar. Your furry family member will understand that going to the spa can be something to look forward to!
I groom both dogs and cats and even ferrets! I will also trim nails on other small animals. I offer a variety of specialty products and treatments to keep their skin and coat healthy. I use premium, natural, professional salon products on each pet. I love puppies and kittens and offer a special package just for them! This helps get them used to seeing me on a regular basis and get used to the full grooming experience. It also allows me to teach you how to best care for their individual skin, coat, and dental health.
Your pet deserves a spa day!
Studio 851 is an all inclusive spa. With every bath and brush or full service groom, your pet will receive a luxurious massaging bath using premium professional salon products, which best suits their skin and coat needs, conditioner, teethbrushing, blueberry facial, nail grinding, and a de-shed treatment if needed. Each pet will also receive a digital photo to print and share. Your pet gives you a lifetime of unconditional love. Treat them to a spa day and see all that Studio 851 offers!

What to expect
Your pet's appointment
Full service grooming takes approximately 1-3 hours per pet, depending on size, coat, style, and temperament. I will give you an estimated time after I assess your pet at check in. You are welcome to drop your pet off and run some errands, go home and clean pet hair, wash pet's bedding, or even treat yourself to a salon treatment. Just please make sure to be available to pick up when I call. As much as I enjoy spending time with your pets, I need to make myself available for my next appointment. Other services like nail trimming, toothbrushing, etc. just take a few minutes.
Our safety policies
At Studio 851 your pet's health and safety is our number one priority.
Due to the laws in the State of Michigan, all pets over the age of 4 months will be required to be up to date on their rabies vaccination for any services at Studio 851 (rabbits and guinea pigs are exempt). A rabies certificate or vet receipt with pet's name and rabies expiration date will need to be seen at check in (If you have misplaced it, I can verify with your veterinarian during their business hours). If your pet is not able to receive the rabies vaccine due to health complications, an exemption certificate from your veterinarian will be honored. The up-to-date parvo vaccine is also required. All other vaccines are strongly recommended. There is a 10 day waiting period after receiving any vaccines to prevent pain at injection site and also avoid stress to pets that may be experiencing an unexpected reaction to a vaccine.
If your pet is matted to the point that de-matting will cause pain or injury, your pet will be completely shaved and I will discuss how you can help to avoid this at your pet's next visit. I am not able to bath matted pets without first shaving their mats and I will not send home a pet with mats still in their coat. If you have a bath and brush appointment and mats are discovered at check in, your pet will need a full service groom. I will never cause a pet unnecessary pain for the sake of vanity. If de-matting is possible without causing pain or injury, you will be charged $1 per minute in addition to my standard grooming rates.
I am not able to groom pets who have been given a sedative, nor do I administer sedation. Sedation should only be given at the supervision of a licensed veterinarian. If you expect that your pet will need sedation for grooming, it is best that you contact a local veterinarian who offers grooming services. In the rare event that continuing services could result in detriments to the health or safety of your pet or myself, services will be discontinued and you will be contacted to pick up your pet immediately. I don't like using muzzles routinely, as this causes pets unnecessary stress. However, sometimes it is necessary. I am unable to muzzle brachycephalic breeds of dogs or cats, or senior pets. Doing so could cause breathing and other health complications. In this situation, I attempt to use an E-collar in place of a muzzle. If a pet is biting to the point of needing muzzled and I am unable to muzzle your pet due to their unique health needs, you will be contacted to pick up immediately. You will only be charged for the services your pet receives.
