About Paw Spa

Paw Spa is a home-based pet grooming salon located on Kettleridge St in the Oakridge Crossings neighbourhood of London. The business provides grooming services for dogs and cats, as well as nail trims for small pets. The salon describes itself as a mostly cage-free facility that offers a low-stress environment where each pet receives undivided attention during its own dedicated appointment time. Clients can choose from various services, including a complete groom which features a bath, blow dry, ear cleaning, nail trim, and a haircut of the owner's choice. Other options include a bath and tidy service, which incorporates a de-shedding brush out, eye trim, paw trim, and a sanitary shave for longer-haired dogs. The salon also provides creative grooming and specialized nail trims for all sizes of dogs. The business is owned by Amanda Gomes, who graduated from her grooming apprenticeship in 2013. She is a certified bather, intermediate stylist technician, and is certified in pet first aid and CPR. Her credentials include certifications from the Canadian Professional Pet Stylist and memberships in the Ontario Dog Groomers Association and the National Association of Professional Creative Groomers. To maintain her skills, she attends grooming shows and hands-on workshops throughout the year. Paw Spa operates by appointment only. The salon does not provide teeth brushing, anal gland expressions, or ear plucking.
