OUR STORY

BooBoo Pet Grooming Services was built on one simple belief: every pet deserves to feel clean, comfortable, and cared for.
 

From our early days in Etobicoke to our state-of-the-art facility today, we’ve grown into a trusted grooming studio loved by pets and their families. Our groomers combine professional training with a genuine love for animals, ensuring every visit is positive, safe, and stress-free.


Whether you’re coming in for a full groom, a quick trim, or a premium spa treatment, our mission is the same:
happy pets, happy parents.
