The Holistic Pet Spa

The Holistic Pet Spa sits in Varsity Lakes and runs grooming alongside daycare, which shapes the way customers describe it — dogs are dropped in, groomed, and often end up playing with the other dogs before collection. Reviewers consistently mention a spotless salon and a deliberately calm atmosphere, and more than one notes the gentler extras the owner brings to the day, including Reiki with the puppies.

Puppy work is the clearest strength in the feedback. A fifteen-week-old labradoodle's first groom drew particular praise: a face trim that kept the puppy shape, a very soft finish, and time spent afterwards showing a first-time doodle owner how to manage the coat between visits. Others report shaved-down styles cut exactly as asked, small touches such as a bandanna at pick-up, and staff described as warm without being casual about handling. It suits doodle and long-coat owners, puppies meeting clippers for the first time, and dogs who do better somewhere quiet and unhurried.
