He had been working in public accounting for nearly 10 years when his fiancée encouraged him to pursue his passion for working with animals, Imhof told BuzzFeed News.

Imhof was inspired after his fiancée adopted a pit bull from a Brooklyn rescue shelter in April. The shelter didn't have bathing facilities on site, and the dog was in such bad shape that the dirt on its fur caked on the floor of Imhof's bathroom at home.

But after a bath, the dog was transformed.

"It'd be great if someday someone can go to the shelter and help groom the dogs," he told his fiancée.

"Why don't you do that now?" she said.

Imhof completed pet grooming school in October. Aside from his own pet service company, he has been transforming neglected animals who pass through the city's shelter into their best selves.
