Grooming rooted in veterinary care

Vanessa Beatty started her career as a veterinary technician in 2009 at age 19. Over the following decade she built deep expertise in routine care, emergency medicine, and shelter work.

When she pursued cosmetology — drawn to color theory and creative expression — she found grooming was the perfect fusion of both worlds. Her animal behavior background means every groom is guided by the same question: Is this pet comfortable?

Every appointment at Nova&Co. is one-on-one, quiet, and completely tailored. No cages. No rushing.

The work speaks for itself.

What Pet Parents Say

5 stars. Every time.

★★★★★

“Vanessa is absolutely amazing with my anxious golden. He used to shake going to any groomer — now he actually wags his tail when we pull up. The fear-free approach is real.”

Sarah M.

Golden Retriever parent

★★★★★

“I've been taking my doodle to Nova&Co. for two years. The creative color work is stunning and the prices are very fair for the quality. Highly, highly recommend.”

Jen K.

Goldendoodle parent

★★★★★

“My cat hates everything and everyone. Vanessa had her purring within minutes. I was shocked. If you have a cat who's difficult at the vet, you NEED to try this place.”

Marcus T.

Domestic Shorthair parent

What to expect

What exactly is fear-free grooming? +

It means every decision — how we handle your pet, the order of services, even the music in the room — is made with their emotional comfort as the top priority. We go at the pet's pace, never force restraint, and stop if needed.

How long does a groom take? +

Most dogs take 2–4 hours depending on size, coat type, and the style chosen. Because we're one-on-one, your pet is never left in a crate waiting — they're with Vanessa start to finish.

Can I bring my dog if they're nervous or reactive? +

Yes — in fact, anxious pets are where the fear-free approach makes the biggest difference. We just ask that you be honest about your pet's history so we can plan accordingly.
