Puppuccino Pet Spa Waterloo

Puppuccino Pet Spa is the Waterloo outpost of a Sydney-grown grooming and pet-care brand, one of several spa locations the team has opened across Sydney and Brisbane. At its heart it is a grooming boutique built around the idea that every dog should be cared for like family, pairing a proper wash and style with a genuine eye for each dog's wellbeing.

Grooming here follows a complete routine rather than a quick tidy-up. Each visit begins with a personalised assessment of coat, skin, nails and ears, then moves through a warm bath and blow-dry, breed-specific styling shaped to the coat type and the look the owner has in mind, a nail trim and file, an ear clean and check, and a flea and tick check. The products are 100% organic, plant-based, vegan and cruelty-free aromatherapy shampoos and conditioners, free from parabens, sulphates and harsh chemicals. Handling is calm and unhurried, with staff trained to read each dog's body language, which makes the spa a sensible choice for dogs that get nervous about being groomed.

For matted coats the team works to the kindest option and talks the owner through it before starting. Grooms are booked by appointment.
