Hayleys Pet Spa (HPS) is a luxury grooming spa located in downtown Ottawa and is a Canadian controlled private corporation. HPS started in 2019 when the sole shareholder, Hayley, decided to quit her job as an audit manager to take up a life of serving furry friends.
HPS has a team that is passionate about making sure you and your pets leave happy and with the best possible experience. Hayleys most popular service is her Full Bath & Paws Package for dogs. This package includes a full grooming - deep cleaning and hydrating bath, blow dry, an all-over fur trim/cut, trimming of the face, shaving of the fur between the pads, a nail trimming and an ear cleaning. This package costs between $70 and $170 depending on the size of your furry friend.
