About Us

Meet our staff:

Jeff Slaughter, Owner of The Muttley Crew

Jeff’s extensive experience with dogs includes more than 30 years of experience in pet care and grooming. The Muttley Crew is Jeff’s fifth independently owned grooming shop and his first doggy day care. He is a Certified Master Groomer and former veterinary technician with an extraordinary understanding of dogs. His grooming specialties are terriers and rare breeds, but all dogs look fantastic after a visit with Jeff. Jeff always enjoys seeing his long-time doggy friends, as well as meeting new ones. He hopes The Muttley Crew fills the needs of busy pet owners and gives their precious pets a safe and fun place to play.

Lori Goudy, Certified Master Groomer (CMG)

Lori has been grooming for more than 20 years and it shows in her perfect work.

She breeds, raises and shows American Cocker Spaniels. Cockers and spaniel breeds are, of course, her specialty, but she is very knowledgeable in all breed cuts and can make any dog look its best.

To see more of Lori’s work you can visit her personal website www.firstclasscockers.com

Lori provides the same excellent quality work that you’ve come to expect from The Muttley Crew groomers.

Cassie Lock has worked for The Muttley Crew for several years and has become the linchpin of our staff.
She started here as a bather and has since worked her way up to General Manager.

Cassie has the best customer service skills I have ever seen and has done a lot of work learning about dog and cat nutrition.

She has worked with animals since she was very young, raising several dogs and cats as well as volunteering at the Oregon Zoo. Cassie is currently owned by a Boston mix named Ajax and a Heeler mix, Zep.

Harry Frasier, our lead bather, has been working with in the dog field for 10 years.

He trains and raises bird dogs. He owns two pointers Stone and Dozer who are always at his side. Harry is not only the best bather in town, but also does private obedience training sessions. Just ask for his info at the front counter. He is one of the few trainers that can teach the proper use of slip collars and e-collars.

Harry has become such an integral part of our team, I don't know what we'd do without him!

David Mattison, Lead Daycare Attendant

David is our Pied Piper of dogs… What can we say? They love the guy! David has been with us since the first year at The Muttley Crew and we hope he stays around forever.  He has such a way with the dogs, you’ll swear he bribes them with steaks!

Your dog will have a fun and tiring day playing fetch with David and our daycare interns from Beaverton High School’s work program.
 

Pamela Armstrong is a new addition to our grooming staff.

Finding a good groomer is not only hard for some clients, it's also hard to find one to suit our high grooming standards. I feel that we have found such a person in Pam. She graduated at the top of her class from Tara Lara Grooming school in 1994. She has since been involved in grooming Standard Poodles for the show ring. See some of her work on our site and facebook page.

Pam has owned her own shop in southern Oregon and helped open two others in Grant's Pass. She not only grooms any breed to perfection, but is one of the few groomers who works on cats- AND ENJOYS IT!

We are very happy to have her aboard. Her sunny disposition is a welcome accompaniment for us and our clients.
 

Donalee Fox started here as an intern from the Merlo High School work program.
She was one of our daycare attendees. She has since become a full-time employee with great bathing skills.

Donnalee is not afraid of hard work and a great willingness to learn new things.
She has just adopted a new Blue Heeler pup to go along with her two toy poodles and a Golden Retriever.

Brandi Olds-
Brandi also starting with us as a volunteer intern from Merlo High School.
She has since become a valued employee, proving herself by jumping in
and doing any job necessary.
She now works as a daycare attendant during the week, and is one of our bathers on the weekend.
