MobileDog groomer caring for a dog inside the mobile spa

Four Generations. One Legacy.

Grooming isn’t a job for this family — it’s in their blood. Nearly 50 years of hands-on craft, passed from mother to daughter, show ring to mobile spa.

GENERATION ONE

The Show Circuit

Grandmother bred and showed AKC champions in the 1950s. The standard for perfection was set before any of this was a business.

GENERATION TWO

Poodle Chateau

Her son ran Poodle Chateau in Maryland for over 50 years — a grooming institution built on breed-standard cuts and old-school discipline.

GENERATION THREE

Lil Lewis · Canine Carousel

Lil Lewis opened Canine Carousel in Herndon, VA in 1977 — 49 years ago. Past President of the Virginia Grooming Association. The salon became a Northern Virginia institution.

GENERATION FOUR
