The Reason Why We Are Here

Here at Wut’s Up Pup you may find out we are a little more dog than human, Nick the owner is a 33 year old who was born and raised in Sarasota. Living with dogs his whole life, Nick has always found comfort in dogs and their presence from a very young age. They have always been a escape for him in rough situations.

At 20 years old he decided to make dogs his career after giving up on Massage Therapy right out of high school. Nick has been working with dogs and learning all types of breed grooms, their personalities, and characteristics. Dog by dog, case by case. In his 11 years of grooming professionally he has mastered the perfect custom routines to make your dog oh so comfortable!

Specializing in starting your dog from a young age he can guaranty proper training edacity on the table and with the tools. He respects and loves each dog as a human, and the common understanding between him and the dogs is what separates him from many many groomer.

 

Testimonial

“I've known Nick Scalidone for over 8 years as a pet groomer, first encountered him at Bayside Pet Resort where I had been taking my Golden Retriever "Max" for a full Spa treatment. Nick had replaced a groomer we had been seeing and I was very impressed with his work and treatment of Max (so was Max). Now he is getting ready to open his own place where I know my 14 year old Max will most assuredly find the great and caring touch of Nick Scalidone - a young man with class and much love for his clients. As Max might say - Woof, Woof, Bark (good luck Nick, see ya' soon!.”
