Cat grooming can improve your cats quality of life🐈

We offer a variety of services for cats with shorthair, long hair & no hair to ensure they are feeling their best. Regular grooming can promote healthier skin, coat, nails & ears.

Cats are self-groomers, but can need human help removing loose fur or they can develop matts (clumps of knotted hair) or ingest too much causing hairballs. Senior cats & ones with health issues can find it difficult to stay on top of their grooming.

We have a private studio space where cats are groomed ✨

Yes, we groom puppies!

Building a positive association with the grooming process is beneficial so that they feel more confident & less anxious.

For breeds that will require regular grooming throughout their lives it is important to introduce them to grooming in a stress free way at an early age.

Keep in mind that a puppies first appointment should NOT include a full body haircut.

We recommend light trimming around their face, feet & sanitary!

Is your pup ready to enjoy the summer?☀️🏕️🏖️

Long unkept hair can keep dogs from regulating their body temperatures, hide creepy crawlies & intensify skin issues.

Double coated breeds benefit from de-shed services so they can keep from overheating 🥵

Need a cute outfit for Mr. & Ms Canine pageant or Twinning contest? We've got you covered. Bring in your pup and get ready for this weekend's events.

The heatwave is here!

Keeping your pet well groomed is vital to ensure they can deal with the hot temperatures & humidity.

Impacted or matted coats prevent air from reaching the skin and retain water after a dog swims or gets caught in the rain so the skin stays wet. This sets up a perfect environment for hot spots and inhibits dog’s ability to regulate their temperature.

We groom 7 days a week at 2 locations ✌🏻

Stay cool everyone 🐾

Temperatures are going into the 30’s by next week!🥵

The Hurtta Cooling Wrap mimics our body’s own natural cooling process. Simply soak the vest in cold water, and squeeze the water out. As the water evaporates it creates a cooling reaction, helping your dog stay cooler longer.

- Add ice cubes to cold water in a bowl + wrap and place in fridge before placing on your pup!
- Very helpful for dogs that struggle with regulating their temperature (i.e brachycephalic breeds, senior dogs etc)

Available in Aquamarine and Carnation Pink

We are SO excited to be carrying treats at both our locations now!

In Canada, 6.2 million Canadians have a disability and over 2.5 million are unemployed. With every purchase, Finley’s is changing that through employment and giving initiatives.

Their products are free from fillers, by-products, and artificial colors and flavors. They are tested for pathogenic bacteria throughout the entire manufacturing process, including the finished products, before they ever leave the manufacturing facility.

From crunchy biscuits to soft training treats Finley has it all.
