Our Grooming Staff

Tonia Nash
Senior Pet Stylist
groomer shailer park

Tonia grew up in the Logan City region and brings over 15 years’ experience as a professional dog groomer.

She is known for her gentle handling techniques and the trusting relationships she builds with her furry clients. Having grown up around animals from a young age, including dogs, cats and guinea pigs, Tonia has a calm, respectful approach that helps even anxious pets feel at ease. Her priority is always to ensure grooming is a positive experience for every dog.

Tonia is highly skilled in breed-specific clips, including West Highland White Terriers, Schnauzers and Poodles, as well as traditional styles that are especially popular during the warmer months.

With a strong creative side, Tonia also enjoys working closely with owners to achieve individual grooming requests. Her artistic eye and attention to detail mean she can often recreate styles from reference photos, blending her love of art with her passion for animals — a combination that makes grooming her true dream job.

Much loved by both clients and staff, Tonia puts genuine care and pride into every groom.

At home, she shares her life with a Ragdoll cat named Henry. Outside the salon, Tonia enjoys painting watercolour portraits (including pets), as well as reading, hiking, camping and spending time at the beach.

Celia Zhang
Groomer
Celia

Celia is one of our talented groomers, known for turning our favourite furry clients into their very best selves.

She specialises in short body clips and is particularly skilled in Asian fusion grooming, which features a teddy bear face, short body coat and fluffy legs. This style suits many small and companion breeds when done correctly.

If you’re unsure which style will suit your dog, or your puppy is visiting for their very first trim, Celia is always happy to share her experience and offer thoughtful suggestions tailored to your pet and their breed.

Outside of work, Celia enjoys getting lost in a good book or heading into the nearby bush for a hike with her son. She also has her own Cavoodle, who of course is always impeccably groomed.

Evenings at home often involve enjoying her husband’s cooking. As a chef at a Chinese restaurant, he’s an expert in dumplings and dim sum.

Her secret to helping dogs stay calm on the table? A gentle voice and plenty of treats.

Will Nash
Groomer

We’re sure our patients don’t have favourites, but if they did, it would undoubtably be Will. After all, he’s the one who gives them a bath and a blow dry!

Part of our brother-sister grooming team, Will provides assistance to his older sister and groomer Tonia by prepping our canine friends for their regular grooming session.

Pampering pups is a busy job for Will, who thoroughly enjoys catching up with his regular clients. He does have a soft spot for cocker spaniel Nelson though (shhh…don’t tell the others)!

Will’s gentle nature is perfect for this role, as he puts the dogs at ease, preps them for their grooming session, and ensures they leave feeling happy, relaxed and looking their very best. It’s mutually beneficial too as Will absolutely loves the company of dogs.

Outside of our practice, Will likes to explore his creative side making and selling wire bonsai trees. He’s also a budding musician, first exploring instruments such as the piano and drums before settling on the guitar. You won’t find him on stage anytime soon though – he’s strictly a ‘bedroom’ musician who enjoys honing his craft at home.

You may find him at the gym or out hiking on the trails however, as Will is a bit of a fitness fanatic who likes to keep active. Will does have aspirations to become a groomer sometime in the future, for now he is happy being able to work alongside his sister Tonia. Of course, we’re very pleased to have this dynamic sibling duo working with us in the practice.
