Our Story

Where Every Pet Gets the Royal Treatment

Gettysburg's premier upscale grooming salon — born from a lifelong love of animals and a passion for making every furry friend feel their absolute best.

Meet Alli 

Hi there! I'm Allison Baldwin, the founder and lead groomer behind Zippin & Clippin. For as long as I can remember, animals have been my world — from owning and raising livestock, to my horse "Pascal", my four dogs, and of course my cat "Romeo!" There is nothing more in this world that I love than animals. They bring me joy, comfort, and pride! 

When I decided to open my own salon right here in beautiful Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, I knew I wanted it to be something truly special — a place where pets feel safe, pampered, and loved, and where their owners feel confident they're getting the very best care.

Zippin & Clippin isn't just a grooming salon. It's a whimsical, upscale retreat designed to make every visit feel like a spa day for your beloved companion. Every snip, every brush, every bath is done with patience, expertise, and genuine love.
