BELVIDERE – The pets around Belvidere may soon look a bit spiffier thanks to a business that is about to open downtown.

Snazzy Pets Grooming is expected to open around the first of September at 107 Buchanan Street.

Owner Rhonda Borcherts-Surratt, who is a certified groomer, has been thinking about the storefront for a while. She’s no stranger to the business. Borcherts-Surratt, along with business partner Peggy Long, also run Spiffy Pets Grooming & Daycare in Machesney Park. That store opened three years ago.

“We actually have several customers from the Belvidere, Poplar Grove, Caledonia area. We really thought there was a need there.”

The new store will start with two people working out of the shop.
