Dog Groomer

**About us**
- **For people who love their dogs, Wag Awhile is York Region's favourite destination for doggie daycare, sleep-overs, training and our full-service spa. We've built a loyal community of dog owners who visit us regularly, fully entrusting our team to not only take care of their pups, but to help them grow and thrive. We have an amazing team of passionate, kind and caring individuals who love what they do. We are proud to have very low staff turn-over, indicative of a positive, safe and fun work environment.**_
