About Hot Dog Cool Cat Pet Salon
Hot Dog Cool Cat Pet Salon is an air-conditioned dog and cat grooming salon on Erskineville Road in Erskineville, sitting right next door to Sydney Animal Hospitals in Sydney's inner city. The salon is run by stylists with more than 20 years of combined experience across dog grooming, cat grooming and veterinary nursing, and the work is split through the week: dogs from Tuesday to Saturday and cats on Mondays, which are kept as cat-only salon days.
The approach leans toward a calm, considered groom rather than a production line. No sedation is used, cats are groomed one at a time, and the team aims for a friendly, comfortable and stress-free environment so pets leave looking, smelling and feeling their best. Dog services range from breed styling and seasonal clips to hygiene tidies, bath and blow dry, and de-shedding, while cats can have a Tiger groom, Lion groom, ventral hygiene groom or a de-shedding treatment. Pets that turn out to be aggressive or that need veterinary attention are referred next door rather than forced through a groom.
For inner-city households juggling one dog or a cat that needs careful handling, it is a small, hands-on salon built around individual attention.
