Gray Concrete Texture

After completing her studies in Graphic Design, Francesca entered the world of grooming in 2018, attending the course held by Master Ferruccio Soave.

In 2019, supported by her family—who for over thirty years has led Pet Line, a company producing grooming equipment and distributing the Requal brand—she turned her passion into a profession and founded Grooming Salon.

In the same year, she began competing, winning her first medal in the Beginners class with her favorite breed: the English Cocker Spaniel. In the following years, she achieved numerous awards in Intermediate classes, also testing her skills in the Stripping and Poodle categories.

In recent years, she has collected several gold, silver, and bronze medals in various categories, both in Italy and abroad, consolidating her experience and versatility. During this journey, Paola Acco and Sarah Odette Genova have been fundamental guides, offering Francesca not only precious training support but also constant moral encouragement.

From 2025, she started training courses for groomers at her headquarters; in the same year, thanks to her competition results, she officially joined the Italian National Team for the 2026 World Championship in the Spaniels and Setters category.

She continues her growth and training path today, in Italy and abroad, with the goal of perfecting her technique and knowledge.
