Posh Paws Grooming Salon is a woman-owned pet grooming salon with an online luxury pet supply boutique. The physical store has remained open but had to cut its hours. All dogs’ grooming needs were and are still being met. Posh Paws has kept on all of its staff and even hired three new employees—and is still looking for two more! The online Posh Paws Boutique sells custom, made-to-order, and American-made luxury pet supplies from a number of small businesses. The boutique’s clientele grew with a number of people shopping online while working from home.

“We’ve really been focusing on thanking the community. I was born and raised in Rocklin, and it’s important to be part of the community. We see people making more of an effort to support small businesses now, which is appreciated,” owner Jennifer Kirk said. There are a limited number of people in the store at one time, and customers have the option to have a curbside pick up/drop off for their pets. Posh Paws now asks that all personal items (like collars and leashes) be removed from the animals to help prevent the spread of germs.

Current business hours: 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday
Future expectations: Dog grooming will still be needed once people head back to work. Posh Paws is hoping to hire another licensed groomer and groomer’s assistant to help with the demand.
