Dr. Catherine Pamiglione, DVM
Canine Aquafitness & Veterinary Rehab Centre
I worked with Morrie while she assisted with our canine hydrotherapy and rehabilitation program. She supported patient preparation and assisted with dogs undergoing hydrotherapy and other therapeutic modalities, including chiropractic care, massage, and laser therapy. Morrie consistently demonstrated calm, patient handling and a thoughtful awareness of each dog’s comfort level, particularly when working with dogs requiring gentle, supportive care due to injury, mobility limitations, or anxiety. Her gentle approach, combined with her attentiveness to each dog’s individual needs, was always evident in her work. It has been a pleasure to work alongside Morrie, and I am excited to see her bring this same level of care, compassion, and dedication to her grooming practice.
Dr. Mark Rubensohn, DVM
Okotoks Veterinary Clinic
I have had the privilege of working closely with Morrie over the past four years as an Animal Health Assistant. During this time, she has consistently demonstrated a rare combination of compassion, competency, and professionalism. She is deeply caring with animals, attentive to their needs, and highly skilled in handling a wide range of situations with calm confidence. Her clinical competence is matched by her warmth and charm, which puts both animals and their owners at ease. Beyond her technical abilities, Morrie is a conscientious and dedicated animal owner herself, with extensive experience caring for her dogs and horses. I have no doubt that she will bring the same level of excellence, integrity, and care to her mobile dog grooming business and I recommend her without reservation.
Kimberley McCullough
Registered Nurse & Professional Dog Handler
I am a Registered Nurse who has spent much of my career working in veterinary clinics across British Columbia and Alberta. In addition, I was an all-breed professional dog handler in the conformation ring for over a decade. I have known Morrie for 31 years. Even at a young age, she had a natural and intuitive way with animals. Her ability to understand animals—their behavior, communication, and needs without words—is truly remarkable. She has remained committed to both maintaining and advancing her skill set, completing the Medical Office Assistant with Veterinary Specialty program and recently becoming a Certified Groomer through Prestige Dog Grooming School under the guidance of Master Groomer Danna Alexander. Morrie is now stepping forward as an entrepreneur with her own business, State of the Heart Mobile Dog Grooming. I have every confidence in her continued success and growth in this new chapter. The dogs—and the families—who have the opportunity to be in her care are truly fortunate.
