Walmart Business Stories: Gabriel Feitosa
Dog grooming with a creative twist
For Gabriel Feitosa, dog grooming isn’t just a business—it’s an art form. Every pup is a blank canvas waiting to be transformed, and Feitosa has amassed an incredible social media following based on his wild designs. Tie-dye, Pokémon, unicorns, even fish—the only limit to his designs is his imagination. All he needs is a good pair of clippers and some pet-friendly dye.
Originally from Brazil, Feitosa came to the United States with some scissors, clippers and a dream. He’d grown up taking his sister’s dog to the groomers, and as he watched the process, he thought, “This lady plays with dogs all day, and she makes money. How great of a life is that.”
Fast forward to 2018 and Feitosa was opening his own dog grooming business in San Diego, CA. Among the services offered at the Gabriel Feitosa Grooming Salon are standard pet grooming, handstripping and creative grooming, the last of which draws clients from all over the country. His work has been featured on NBC Los Angeles, Mashable and ABC News, among others. He’s built a social media audience of 1.3 million Instagram followers and 2.5 million TikTok followers.
“It might look like all I do is play with dogs all day, but what I do is an art,” he said in an interview with Walmart Business.
Contrary to what people may think, dog grooming is hard work—especially when you’re the one in charge. “As a business owner, I make my own hours, and those hours can be insane,” Feitosa said. “So, I love that Walmart Business has so many convenient fulfillment options.” Whether it’s cleaning supplies, paper products or other business purchases, Feitosa enjoys free shipping on orders over $35,1 speedy same-day delivery from local stores2 and built-in budget management tools with his Walmart Business account.
