Hair Of The Dog Pet Spa is owned and operated by an artist and animal lover. Laura Jayne Sabbah attended grooming school in 2002 and has continued her education via grooming expos and seminars over the course of 2 decades. She is also a competitive dog groomer, traveling all over the country to compete with some of the most talented groomers in the world to continuously further her skills. She has earned countless awards in competing with terriers, poodles, bichons, and Asian fusion style. She is a proud volunteer to the Humane Society of New York and has been featured on NY1 being honored as their New Yorker of the week. She has also made appearances on such shows as “The Most Expensivist” on Vice with rapper 2chainz, Animal Planet, and CNBC. She has proudly catered to cats and dogs up and down the East coast from Miami Beach, Washington DC, Connecticut to New York City. Laura Jayne is a member of the National Dog Groomers Association of America (NDGAA) and the Creative Groomers Association (CGA). She holds certifications in non-sporting breeds, pet CPR, animal care and handling and as a Pet Aesthetician. Her extensive background in holistic medicine and natural remedies along with years of gathering experience and knowledge have allowed her to and become the best she could be. Laura Jayne is proud to present Hair of The Dog Pet Spa exclusively in New York City, where New Yorker’s pets are people too (since 2015). She specializes in all breed standards, hand-stripping, Asian fusion styles, creative grooming, and rehabilitative work with rescues.

As a dedicated animal care professional with over a decade of experience, Carolina Herrera has been committed to making dogs look and feel their best since 2007. Her journey began as a dog walker in Manhattan, where she discovered her passion for the unique bond between humans and their furry companions. Driven by her love for dogs and inspired by the artistry of grooming, Carolina pursued a career as a professional groomer. She believes every dog deserves to be treated with the utmost respect and care, ensuring they leave the van not only looking fabulous but also feeling loved and safe.
Caleb has dedicated his life to the care and love of animals. He was the number one junior handler in the dachshund breed while showing in junior showmanship. He now shows many different breeds professionally with the American Kennel Club. His standards and attention to detail while customizing skin and coat treatments, or providing the perfect blow out, are on par with the same high standards used in the ring at Westminster. He is also a full time student at Marymount University Manhattan college, majoring in public relations, and minoring in business. Caleb sees a little bit of show dog in all of our fur-clients.
Hair of the Dog has redefined the concept of luxury mobile grooming. We have three state-of-the-art mobile units providing on the spot service. Each van is equipped with a stainless steel Super Sudsor massaging hydro-bath that can hold the largest breeds with room to spare. Each includes an adjustable tub shelf to customize the experience for even the smallest dogs. Our grooming table lowers all the way to the floor for a smooth and stress free ride up to grooming height. We also have a slide out bridge that takes your pet directly from table to tub, specifically designed for older dogs with hip problems. Rest assured that we leave with what we came with! Our mobile units have two 50-gallon water tanks for our fresh water and grey water. For power we use an Onan 8000 quiet commercial generator and a 2000 watt outback inverter. Each van is 100% green and requires no idling to operate as required by state law. We believe that a comfortable pet is a happy pet, so we have installed an amazing climate control system on each unit.
“Sit… Stay… Fetch… Roll over… Repeat… Don’t get me wrong, I love my job, but honestly its all a bit exhausting. I need a happy hour once in a while and Hair of the Dog is it for me!”
