A ribbon cutting ceremony was held for The Paw-ffice on Thursday, September 29, 2022, at noon. Now located at 1075 N. Shoop Avenue Suite 5 in Wauseon, the Paw-ffice is accepting new clients.
Owned by Amber Frank and Anna Howard, the pet salon consists of three total groomers, including the two owners and Steven Pope.

Howard shared, “We are just really excited to be joining the community.”
Groomer Steven Pope’s wife, Susan Pope, attended the ceremony and stated, “Everyone is welcome here, it’s very laid back and I think that everyone feels like they can come in here and when they walk out feel welcome here.’
“Its right in the middle of Wauseon and it’s nice seeing a big community.”
They offer pet grooming by highly trained and experienced animal lovers, who genuinely want the best for your pet.
