Maya Reyes
Lead groomer · Portland route
SE Portland, OR
A few sentences
Calm hands, plain language, one dog at a time.
Maya started grooming in 2017 after apprenticing with a show-dog handler in Beaverton and never really left the tub. On a typical visit she pre-loads the shampoo and clipper guard for your breed, runs a solo session in the van, and sends you a photo report before she pulls away. She lives in SE Portland with a patient rescue beagle named Otto who has personally tested every dryer and slicker brush the company owns.
The short list
Eight years of listening to dogs.
Your first visit
From the first text to the photo report.
Five honest steps — what actually happens, what actually changes, and what you can tell dispatch if anything looks off.
- 1
The morning of
You get a 30-minute heads-up text with a live route link and the groomer's name — same person who is already driving toward your block.
- 2
The van rolls up
The salon is in the driveway, not across town. You hand off the leash, the groomer walks your dog into the van, and the door closes behind them. No waiting room, no crates, no other dogs.
- 3
The groom itself
A solo session with filtered warm water, the right shampoo for the coat, and quiet dryers. Most dogs settle inside the first five minutes — the engine is off, the generator barely hums.

Photo report & payment
You get a texted photo report before the van pulls away, with coat notes, an ear check, and a one-tap rebook link. The price on the receipt is the one you booked — no add-on line for surprises.

Aftercare
Coat notes echo by email so you remember what worked next time. If anything looks off in the first 48 hours, the same groomer answers your message — same person, same van, next visit.
