Founder & Creative Heart
Unicorn Pet Grooming (Orange County) | KOKONI Pet Salon (San Gabriel)
Wylie Shen is the founder of Unicorn Pet Grooming Salon, bringing over a decade of experience to the grooming table. Her journey began in 2011 with animal rescue work — an experience that instilled in her a "compassion first" philosophy. A graduate of the Animal Behavior College and the 4 Dog Grooming Academy, Wylie specializes in the art of Japanese-style grooming, focusing on precision, softness, and balance. Her dedication to the craft and her rescue roots earned her 3rd place at the 2023 Groom Expo West Rescue Round-Up.
At Unicorn, Wylie has created a calm, welcoming space designed to make every pet feel safe and every visit feel personal. For Wylie, grooming is a quiet art form centered on building trust rather than just achieving a look. She treats every dog with the patience and empathy they deserve, ensuring they leave the salon feeling safe, confident, and beautifully cared for.
In 2026, Wylie opened a second location — KOKONI Pet Salon in San Gabriel — bringing the same Japanese Asian-fusion artistry and trust-first care to the San Gabriel Valley.
At Unicorn Pet Grooming Salon, we believe grooming is about building a long-term relationship with every pet we care for. Grooming is more than just a haircut — it's about trust, comfort, and creating a positive experience over time.
Our team are true animal lovers. We work with patience and understanding, and we never force pets through the grooming process. To keep the experience calm and gentle, we limit active grooming table time to a maximum of three hours per pet (not including drying time).
Every pet is different. Some need extra time to feel comfortable and build trust — just like every child is unique. On days when a pet may feel nervous or overwhelmed, we focus on what's best for them and take a slower, gentler approach. Perfection is never our priority — your pet's comfort, safety, and happiness always come first. 🐾
Every service is guided by your pet's comfort, safety, and emotional well-being.
We respect each pet's pace, personality, and limits — never rushed, never forced.
Grooming is a craft. We focus on skill, precision, and thoughtful detail over speed.
Each pet is unique. We tailor grooming styles to suit their natural features and lifestyle.
We build lasting relationships through honest communication and reliable, high-quality care.
