November 02, 2026 // Franchising.com // Myrtle Beach, SC – Woofie’s® of Myrtle Beach is announcing its grand opening, offering premium mobile pet grooming, dog walking, and pet sitting services.
Woofie’s of Myrtle Beach is owned and operated by Ali Alsadiq, longtime Myrtle Beach resident, Army veteran, and self-proclaimed dog lover. With a professional background in military operations and customer experience, Ali looks forward to applying his experience building teams while providing dependable, compassionate, personalized pet care throughout the Myrtle Beach community with Woofie’s.
“My decision to open Woofie’s in Myrtle Beach was personal and professional. I have always loved animals, but my perspective changed even more so when I adopted my Yorkshire Terrier Dock, after his previous owner—a mentor of mine and a dear friend—passed away,” said Ali. “Caring for Dock made me realize how important trust, compassion, and dependable pet care are. At Woofie’s, we strive to provide all three with a complete pet care solution.”
Ali is joined by a team of professional groomers, pet sitters, and dog walkers, including groomers Tori Van Strander and Lindsey Smith, expert at addressing the latest techniques in pet grooming with increased regional demands from sand, heat, humidity, and other elements year-round. Van Strander is a Certified Professional Groomer, also trained and certified in pet first aid and CPR, with specialized experience working with fluffy and curly coats, deshedding treatments, hand-stripping wire-haired breeds, and a variety of breed-standard cuts. Smith brings over 10 years of professional grooming experience and AKC S.A.F.E. certification, a lifelong love for animals having grown up on a farm, and the ability to work with pets across a wide range of breeds and grooming needs, particularly for doodle clients.
“Our focus at Woofie’s of Myrtle Beach is to provide a comforting, dedicated, personalized setting with our high-tech mobile grooming spa coming to your home to help to make grooming a positive experience for pets and their people,” said Van Strander.
Through its mobile pet spa, Woofie’s brings professional grooming directly to clients, while its pet sitting and dog walking services provide additional options for pet parents looking for dependable care. The Woofie’s® mobile app allows clients to schedule services, track walks via GPS, and receive real-time updates. Woofie’s is also connected to Pet Vet Connection for access to veterinary telehealth, providing pet owners with an additional resource when questions arise.
