About The Blissful Pup

Where calm care and trusted expertise meet.

At The Blissful Pup, grooming is a collaboration between heart and science.

Our work is guided by the belief that grooming should support the whole dog — body, mind, and spirit. We focus on trust, emotional safety, and mindful handling, helping each pup feel secure and understood at every step.

We honor every dog as an individual and every grooming session as a chance to strengthen the bond between pet, parent, and professional.

Stella Pikios

Founder,

Certified Professional Groomer

& Behavior Specialist

Hi, I’m Stella — the heart behind The Blissful Pup.

My approach blends gentle skill and genuine love for dogs.

Inspired by my own rescue pups, Sasha and Myra, I’ve made it my mission to ensure every grooming experience is guided by patience, empathy, and thoughtful expertise — creating a safe, nurturing space where dogs feel seen and beautifully cared for.

With a background in Biology and advanced professional certifications, I bring together compassion and science-based care to support the skin, coat, and emotional well-being of every dog I groom.​
