Sir Leonidas Capone Grillo
Posh Paws Bellmore - Bossman
As a demanding, yet charming, Chocolate Parti Pomeranian, Capone is “founder” and boss of Posh Paws Pet Spa. After attending college with his mom, it was made clear that Capone would not be left at any groomer whom did not derive from his kingdom. Thus, his college education would lead him to expanding his reign in operating a salon of his own. In his old age, Sir Capone can usually be found napping throughout various places in the salon.
Talia N. Vertuccio
Posh Paws Bellmore - Grooming Apprentice
Hi! My name is Talia and I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I love all animals but I’ve always known I wanted to work with dogs one way or another. My career started in 2017 when I began working at a daycare & boarding facility. This is when my love for caring for pets really blossomed and I truly enjoyed making pets clean and fresh for their families to pick them up. I discovered my passion for grooming and began pursuing my dream. My favorite thing in the world is making connections with these beautiful babies. As grooming can potentially be highly stressful, making them feel comfort and loved is a big part of establishing a connection with the dogs I get to work with. Your dogs will always be safe with me.
I do this for Candy, Loki, Kaia, Beau, Frank, Odin, Lily, Roc and Piglet.
Yesica Leon
Yesica began her grooming journey when she applied to a corporate salon as a bather—little did she know it would become so much more. She quickly fell in love with providing positive grooming experiences and meeting pets of all kinds. To Yesica, grooming was never just a service; it was a way to help animals through what can sometimes be a stressful experience. She discovered the joy and fulfillment that came from making pets feel loved, safe, and understood, and she knew she wanted to be part of that difference in their lives.
From Yesica: Thank you to all the pet owners who have trusted me with her beloved companions. I will always care for them as if they were my own.
To my fur baby Lola- because of you, I found myself.

Jessenia started at Posh Paws in 2021 as a bather. Over time, Jess developed a deep appreciation for the skill, patience, and knowledge required to groom dogs professionally. Jess says “each dog I’ve worked with has helped me grow in confidence, compassion, and technique and to never overthink.” Now a trained groomer through Posh Paws, Jess’ favorite breed is work on is “ANY DOODLE! I love to see the transformation I can do for them.”
