Our Story: A Journey of Love and Care

In 2003, Furry Friends Spa and Daycare, formerly known as Dawn of a New Day, opened its doors – a testament to your unwavering support and the profound belief that our beloved companions deserve a life filled with comfort and care.

In November 2014, we embarked on a new chapter by relocating to Hawthorne Avenue, near the picturesque Rideau Canal. This move marked the evolution of our space, as we introduced a modern grooming salon and introduced the concept of a doggy daycare and cat boarding haven. This transformation also saw us invest in state-of-the-art equipment, equipping our salon with some of the industry's finest tools.

Amidst these changes, our commitment to excellence has remained unswerving. Our reputation for upholding the highest grooming standards has been a constant, guiding us as we've evolved. We're immensely proud of this legacy, and it's with this spirit that we eagerly anticipate the continued growth and enhancement of our offerings.

At Furry Friends Spa and Daycare, the heart of our philosophy is crystal clear: PEOPLE ARE OUR CLIENTS, and PETS ARE OUR FRIENDS! This isn't just a slogan; it's the essence of our approach. The well-being of your treasured pets are at the core of all that we do. As we look ahead, we're excited to continue this journey, partnering with you to create a haven of comfort and exceptional care for your furry friends.
