ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR
Tess Anastasia Oliver is an award-winning dog groomer based out of Miami with certifications in Non-Sporting and Long-Legged Terriers. With over 12 years working in the grooming industry and 7 years as a business owner, she is an excellent source of knowledge in both styling and entrepreneurship.
Tess specializes in personality trims, modified show-to-pet trims, and Asian Fusion style trims. Throughout her career, she has continued to expand her knowledge and education by taking advantage of numerous seminars, webinars, certificate courses, and group lessons, as well as frequent private lessons with industry leaders like Pina Pinkusevich, Lindsey Dicken, & Mackensie Murphy to perfect specific trims and techniques. She especially enjoys taking lessons from different experts on the same trim, taking critiques and advice from every one she meets and mashing it all into her own unique perspective.
Over the years, Tess has shown Shetland Sheepdogs as well as Bedlington Terriers for the AKC, and can provide show grooming for both breeds as well as Golden Retrievers. Today, she competes in grooming contests with her retired Multi-Group Placing Grand Champion Bedlington Terrier and keeps her show Golden Retriever clients groomed for their respective handlers.
Tess is the proud owner of Best In Show Pet Spa and with a full client list on recurring 1-6 week schedules, and a 4-year-long waitlist with hundreds of households, it is no surprise that Tess is one of the most sought-after mobile groomers in the Miami area. #305tillIdie

Love Tess Oliver’s educational personality, silly and spooky enough to keep my attention the whole time! I took more notes during this 45 min grooming course than I have on some of the 3 hour ones because she snuck in so many good tidbits of knowledge!
Kim Strouse –
Love ! Number one is you made it fun! Very inspiring to watch! I felt so go knowing I actually follow the same practice of grooming techniques! It was a refreshing video and very informative and easy to follow. Secondly, I know this sounds probably not nice, but it’s nice to see a groomer that is not overweight and in better shape. I try to keep in shape due to being house call and grooming is not easy on the body! It’s nice to see an educator taking care of themselves. I also love the bit of product knowledge, I am an ex hairstylist of 36 years and I do miss the product world… I was a product junky and taught products! So loved that! Thank you for a wonderful class!
